The White Room

Chapter 4, Part One

The timid girl who hesitated at first, started talking,

[W-well, when I was in the courtyard, I saw what looked like one of the gates towards the staff buildings were left open. I got curious and started walking towards the gate and as I got closer, I realized that the gate really was open. As I got even more curious and I started walking down the narrow walkway, I got a glimpse of a line of children, it was about five of them and they were just standing there, in the sun even though it was so hot, as I got closer to the edge of the wall I took a peek... and the I saw it]

Fully intrigued now I looked at the now frightened girl and said,

[What? What did you see?],

[Hey! Don't rush her!], said the blond haired girl,

The timid girl straightened her posture and continued.
[No, it's ok. When I looked around the corner, I saw that there were more children, but it wasn't just that, they were beaten by the surrounding guards, and then one of the guards saw me, he looked me right in the eye and started walking towards me, but I ran away.] she finished,

[...Well, to be honest I'm not sure how I can help you.] I said,

The boy looked slightly surprised, the blond girl looked as if she had something to say and the timid girl remained quiet.

[But, I think I have a way we can help each other] I continued,

[Help me escape this place] I said,

[Wha- Are you crazy?] the blond girl said,

[So you don't need my help?]

[I-] she remained quiet,

[Look, I'm tired of this place, and I need some help escaping, are you guys in or not?]

[I'm in!] said the boy,

[As long as you help], said the blond girl,

[I- I don't mind] said the timid girl,

[Ok, I'll get back to you guys] I said as I left the room,

While walking down the room I was thinking up the perfect plan, but before that, I needed one more person, and I knew exactly who to get.
