"'Assume the position, 084629, or force will be administered,' a human voice echoed through the spartan cell. The prisoner snarled as she complied. She hated following orders, but that didn’t stop her hands from reaching for the metal bar near the entrance, completing the circuit with the steel beneath her feet." "Sibling Rivalry", written by Fred Yost and narrated by Elisa Berkeley, was inspired by the keywords "congress", "art" and "jealousy".
