Bella – Hey Thomas, I found something!

Thomas – What?

Bella – I found another key. IT has a note that says 'choose' attached to it.

Thomas started walking towards me in disbelief and being very careful in case I was pranking him.

Bella – Yes, I'm yet to lose my ability to read. *I said ironically rolling my eyes*

Thomas finally came over to where I was still sitting on the floor. He held out his hand and helped me up. He took a look at the key while I called the other through the walkie-talkies. They quickly came all at once.

Thomas – You guys were all together?

Aria – Yeah, we were done with what we needed to so and we were in the sitting room waiting for you guys.

Bella – Oh, well we found a key. It had a note attached to it that said 'choose'.

Host – My victims! It's your time to choose!

Jennifer – Choose what?

Host – You'll find out soon enough. Find the door that the key can open first.

Victoria – I have a bad feeling about this.

James – We need to get to find the door to get out of here!

Nick – There must be a catch somewhere.

Alex – We still need to find that door though.

Thomas - Let's just go you guys.

We walked out of the room and started with the two locked rooms that were upstairs. None of them opened when we tried to open them so we ran downstairs. There are only two other doors locked downstairs so we don't have a lot of options. We walked towards the door right in front of us and tried to open it, unfortunately, didn't open so we only have one more option left. We then tried to open the only door that we hadn't tried yet, the door on our left. I try to open the key and this one opened! We walked into the small yet wide windowless and empty room to find four closed doors side by side by side by side. The four doors looked exactly the same! I have no idea of what we're supposed to do now but I'm not sure.

Host – Very well everyone. All of these doors are unlocked, but I want you guys to choose one when I ask you to! Two of these doors are safe and the others are...not so safe. Aria and Jennifer, open the door you please now.

I looked over at Air and Jennifer to find them looking at each other. I see Jennifer taking a deep breath. Se walked over to the door on the left and opened it Aria walked into the room along with Jennifer. They walked around for a while looking for something I suppose. The other six of us were standing quietly in front of the door looking inside in curiosity. In there they didn't say a word either. When they finally got out Aria had an envelope identical to the ones that had the invitations in her hand. Aria opened the envelope and read "You two are safe for now, enjoy your little time out."

Host – I'll call the next ones to open a door later, enjoy this time for yourselves.

James – So what do we do now?

Nick – No idea.

Alex – Now we relax for a bit. What time is it?

Victoria – 12:21 PM on that clock over there and in the chronometer says that we've been stuck here for 12 hours and 15 minutes.

Alex – Let's get started with lunch then. Who wants to help me?

James – I will.

Nick – I'll go too, I don't trust the American version of the Weasley twins cooking on their own.
