"What the hell?" I think. "HELLO?" I say loudly, even being able to hear my voice bounce across the thin walls. I walk around nervously, not knowing where any of my friends are. I walk for hours and hours, not finding anyone nor anything. I've lost hope and sat down for a bit. I look up and I freeze up.
Bella's POV:
I start running and crying trying to find everyone. My feet are throbbing and I slowly start to lose my stamina. I trip over my shoe and fall on the ground with my knees touching the damp floor. I decided to stay there for a while. The tears from my face are already dried and the tears feel dry on my face. I finally stand up and my stomach starts to growl. "Damn it. I'm hungry." I say to myself. I look around stupidly as if I'm magically going to find food in here. I start walking once more. I feel my face drooping and I shoot my head straight up. *I can't go to sleep. I NEED to find them* I think to myself. I continue walking, trying not to waste anymore stamina. Once I hear the slaps of feet hitting the ground behind me, I booked it and didn't look behind me.
Annalisa POV:
"Stay right here. I'm gonna look for Bella first then I'll go for Danah." I said. "No, I'm gonna come with you, you might get lost." Sharaliz says. "You can't, you literally can get lost yourself and that's another person I have to look for." I say almost with anger already worried that I can get lost trying to find them. I start to walk off not saying anything else. I hold out my compass and follow the direction its leading me in. Then I realize, *Wait. What's leading me to them? They don't have a compass, at least I don't think. No wait, they don't! They would have been able to find everyone by now, right?..* I decided to not mind it as it wasn't important. All that mattered was finding Danah and Bella. I hear someone or something running so I peek behind a wall "BELLA!" I yelled. She stopped dead in her tracks and turned around very slowly and I could see the relief on her face. She seemed out of breath so before she spoke, I stopped her and signaled her to follow me. She seemed to have got the message and started following me back.
I quickly found Sharaliz in a matter of what I thought was 3 minutes but I'm sure it was longer. "Great, now we found Bella but the only one missing is Danah." I say. "Just use your compass, but be careful." Sharaliz tells me. "Hey Anna, can I come too?" Bella asks me. "No, I don't wanna lose you. Just stay with Sharaliz. It's probably your best option." I tell her. I leave them and start walking. The pat of my feet hitting the damp floor distract me but I continue on. What the hell..
A smiler. Smilers are extremely aggressive humanoids that tend to hide in shadows and darkened hallways, appearing as a pair of shining eyes.

Danah's POV:
I've been sitting here looking at it for so long. I don't even know how long I've been here for. I finally turn my cramped neck and see Annalisa frozen as well. She looks in my direction. "W-" I stop her from speaking by frantically shaking my head signaling to stop. I try to slowly crawl and I successfully crawl far away to grab Annalisa's hand and start sprinting, not even caring about that thing. "WAIT STOP I KNOW THE WAY!" Annalisa yells. I stop dead in my tracks and let her lead me. The relief I felt that we made it.
