"I think I found the entrance," said Louie.

"No shit, Sherlock," said Drake trying to find a way to stop declining.

"Calm down Drake," said Louie, "maybe when we get down there they won't bother us." As he said that they turned around and thirty men with guns stared right at them. Drake and Louie slowly put their hands up and started walking with the officers with the guns.

"Oof," I exclaimed as I landed on the ground of a dark room. I got up and tried to get my eyes adjusted to the darkness, but it was completely dark. There was no light anywhere. I tried to feel my way toward a wall. After a while of walking forward I did find one. I slid against it and sat down, and sighed loudly.

"Who's there," said a familiar voice.

"Isaac?" I asked the voice.

"Cosmo? What's going on," Isaac asked back.

"Do you think I know," I said.

"No, I just thought there might've been a possibility," said Isaac worryingly.

"Yeah, well I don't know," I retorted. I was a bit ticked off by the fact that we got caught and we're now 'test subjects' for a psycho guy. I don't even know his name. Might as well name him '???'. That could be a fitting name. We didn't talk for a while. Nothing happened either.

Suddenly, all the lights turned on and blinded me.

"Welcome to the test chambers," said a voice as my eyes got adjusted to the light. There were white walls and the floor was made of grass. On one of the walls was a screen that was showing the man in white.

"Can you see me?" He asked.

"Yes," I grumbled.

"Good," the man in white answered enthusiastically. He turned to a control panel, "Let's see how you react when provoked." Doors opened on the sides of the room and robots came out with guns in there arms. Instead of fighting them I froze time and ran to the door. As I went through it, it slowly closed behind me. I knew that I left Isaac alone back there, but I saw a chance and I took it. I knew that he could get out.

Isaac stared blankly at the doors that just closed. He couldn't believe that Cosmo just left him alone to fend off a bunch of robots.

"What the hell? Where did the other one go?" Yelled the man in white. One of the IPSF guards whispered to the man. "Oh, you don't know. Do you know? Well neither do I. Go find him you idiot!" The man hit the guard with his cane and sent the guard away.

Isaac got rid of the bots before they could bother him with a wave of water.

"What is going on? Tell me now!" Isaac yelled at the man.

"We were supposed to run tests to figure out what a creator is, but we're not getting any readings anywhere. We might have to dissect you," said the man furiously.

"What?!" Exclaimed Isaac.

"You know. Rip out your internal organs," said the man calmly. "It's a shame to ruin such good subjects."

'I need to get out of here,' thought Isaac searching for a way out while the man in white mumbled about something. Isaac thought about rusting the hinges on the doors that Cosmo went through. He squirted water into those spots and waited until the metal rusted off.

"All I'm saying is that we never had too much time to experiment on the last creators," said the man.

"There are other creators?" Asked Isaac.

"Yeah, there are four of them."

"So eight in total."

"Yeah, basically. We didn't have them for long before they escaped."

"How did they escape? The security you have here is most likely top-of-the-line."

"I know. They were too smart for the smartest people on Earth, I guess," said the man as he turned to face Isaac, "where did you go?"

Isaac was running through a dark hallway, getting farther and farther away from the door that he broke.
