I leaned forward against the cool carpet, reached up, and hooked my fist right onto that heavy metal drawer handle above us. A sharp, solid clank! The handle didn't budge an inch, but feeling that resistance made every wire in me hum. I'm awake, I'm standing, and this powerhouse is ready for anything!
