The truck shakes as it travels down the un-maintained highway road, dipping in and out of potholes and cracks along the way.
Despite the old condition of the truck, it had some reinforcement on the cargo shutters at the back to prevent it from easily being opened from the outside and strangely the inside too, perhaps the cargo was important.
Lucky dice air fresheners bounce and dangle from the top roof, a bobble-head of some kind of basketball player was mounted to the dashboard of the driver's seat.
The truck was littered with old paperwork, receipts, fast food packaging and all other kinds of junk.
An old R&B song was playing on the stereo, a choice made by the driver of the vehicle.
"You ever what happens to some of these guys when we deliver them?" Questions the male behind the steering wheel.
The passenger he was riding with was a large humanoid reptilian species known as a Krogan.
"No." The reptile responds bluntly. "Keep your eyes on the road, Jackson."
The man known as Jackson was an african-american roughly in his mid-30s, bald and brawny.
Jackson let out a sigh and adjusted the brown beanie he wore with his free-hand, clearly annoyed by the Krogan's lack of intrigue.
"There's more to life than money and fighting, Gruk. This job isn't pretty, but if I feel bad about it then how do you think the people we sell off feel about it?" Jackson asks.
"Yeah, sure we get paid and all but do you think they get tortured, killed?" A clear look of discomfort and shame plagued the man's face.
"What about the women? The children? Do they get sold to the rich?"
"That's enough."
"We barely even get that much from how much from how many we sell... Is that how little people's lives are wort-"
"-I SAID, ENOUGH!" Gruk snaps at him, smashing his hand against the roof of the truck in a fit of rage, leaving a dent in it.
Jackson raises his eyebrows and shrugs.
"..."
"You do you, at least I got a family to go home to when Christmas comes." He remarks, seeming rather calm about the Krogan's outburst.
It almost seemed like it was a common occurrence, he didn't care the slightest about the dent in his vehicle.
It was apparent that further inspection of the dirty, old truck they were driving would reveal more imprints of Gruk's fists, this wasn't their first day on the job.
They fell silent for a while whilst the music played.
"I apologise, Jackson." Gruk says, breaking the silence.
"No problem, homie. I know you ain't one for words and all that." Responded the male in a calm fashion.
"We'll go for drinks after this lot." He says with a smile on his face.
He jolts as they drive over a extremely bad pothole, shaking his head and sighing. The sudden shake would've been more than enough to focus or wake anyone who wasn't paying attention.

A swirling feeling of dizziness, confusion and pain would hit you all at the same time as you slowly came to your senses...
You would slowly open your eyes to realize that you are in the back of the truck, it is lit by a singular light that dangles from the roof...
Looking around would inform you that you are not alone, as you see that the rest of the people in the truck with you also slowly come to their senses...
You can hear the truck shake and move with the feint sound of R&B coming from the front of the truck...
There are some small vents out of reach and too small to fit through that provide you all some air and a tiny latch that can be opened and closed from the front of the truck so that only the passenger or driver could open it.
