     Laziness something really comfortable and really disastrous. Why, you ask? I'm not really in the mood to answer so we'll just skip to the end where I'll tell you why am I speaking like a philosopher. I can't get out of the house, have nothing to do all day, so I'm lying around on my bed, stressing myself out about how did my life turn this way.

    Too many complaints I know, but look at the bright side here. I am free all day, can sleep till noon and am served breakfast in bed. I get to eat anything I want and play a few card games with Barney. But it gets lonely all of a sudden and it lasts for hours. Besides I'm gonna get my ass fired when I show up at work, whenever the hell I'll show up there, if I ever get to go out.

*Yawn* I'm sleepy and the funny thing is I woke up three hours ago. I brushed my teeth, took a bath, changed into other pajamas and lay in bed again, staring at the sky counting the clouds passing by. As a main character my life has gotten pretty boring.

The buzzing phone pulled me out of my chain if thoughts, which weren't interesting anyway. So now here's the deal, I don't wanna get out of the soft comfy bed. My phone is ringing and it is ringing. It isn't something important I guess.

My phone is ringing, gosh somebody pick it up already. "Oh!" I let out a frustrated groan. A person cannot even laze around properly these days. I looked at the caller ID, hmm... Felicity, why is she calling? She didn't call me for like a week, left me to die here from boredom.

"Mean much?" My subconscious smirked, "Answer the damn phone. Just how much are you afraid of being lonely.... Jeez..."
  And just now she just went blaa baa blah. Ignoring her I answered the phone.
"Hey, Fel how are you doing? Cause I'm just fine."

"It's good to know." I was being sarcastic, didn't she get it.

"Anyway where's Jack?"

"How am I supposed to know?"

"He's not with you!?" She shouted in my ears.

"Why on earth would he be?"

"He's not been home for three days."

"Yeah, well thanks for calling me so early."

"Hey no need to be sarcastic. You have to help me find him. It's like he's gone off the radar. He is no where to be found. Just when I solved one case, there is another problem."

"You solved it!"

"Yes, but what about Jack? You have to come here. It's not just Jack, I'm worried about. You need to be here, it's not safe for you there. Those people-"

"Hello, hello Fel?" No network. Why does my phone show no network?

Something slid from under the door. Letter? I picked it up. It doesn't have any address on it could it be....

I quickly opened it. I knew it! Another letter from Mr. Well wisher.

The time has come,
For you to run.
Check the map below,
X stands for danger and O for freedom.
Make your way if you can
You'll find me standing at the end.
Take care.
                    Your Well wisher.

He was here, just now. I opened the door, but the corridor was empty. I looked at the map. Holy crap! It was the map of my house, with all the names of the rooms and also mine, the staffs and Bert's rooms were specified. Why go through all this trouble? I don't need that person's help sneaking out but first, I have to go help Felicity find Jack.
      Aren't we already in so much trouble, why does Mr. Well wisher want to meet now. I got changed and called Barney. I'll have to let someone know. I mean I could get into something dangerous, you can never trust some well wisher or maybe there will be another Zero incident. That guy is crazy. Don't know what kind of trouble Jack has gotten in.
