The (Not So) Wonderful World Of What-ifs!

Sleeping Is Not An Option

Fifteen came to awareness quite slowly, feeling groggily around for any type of stability.

"Wh.. what happened? Are all agents accounted for?"

However, she noticed that she was alone.

"How did... Where's here?"

The walls were plain white, the room devoid of any object or any crevice for the step squad to use.

The light was pretty dim, but it was bright enough to make her squint.

Octonaughty opened the door, ignoring the way it pathetically fell off its hinges, "Hello there.." he grinned maliciously.

"What..do you want?.." Fifteen could barely stand, her legs felt weak and tired, but she managed to look annoyed anyways.

The doppelganger knelt down, patting her on the head in a mock affectionate manner, "You must feel very, very tired right now!" He frowned, "Poor thing.."

Fifteen decided to stay silent, choosing to attempt standing again, however, she was unsuccessful as she slid back down to the ground, keeping calm all the while.

"I'm really sorry about that, trust me, I am! But I had to find a way to stop you from hopping around. Same goes for some of your other friends. The triple lucky had to get the biggest dose, she just wouldn't stay asleep."

"...where are they?"

"The others?" The supervillain pretended to think, "They're fine, mostly. Depends on if the other two tried anything dangerous yet."

"What other two?"

"Uh.. the clumsy one and the mind-reader."

She shot him a questioning look, but passed it off and started inspecting the area, seeing the unguarded door.

"You won't make it y'know." Octonaughty interrupted, "I highly doubt you could with how slow your mind is going."

She ignored the statement and slipped past him, making a break for the exit.

"Can't say I didn't warn you!" He called behind her.

"About what? Whoa!"

Suddenly, the floor lost contact with her boots, sending her into a rather unusual backflip into the air.

"...I did not see that coming.."

"Ha! Zero gravity, gotta love it." Octonaughty laughed, using the suction on his tentacles to stay connected to the floor, "It's very convenient for throwing someone's balance completely off!"

The agent quickly tried to attach herself to the wall, but as mentioned before, it was too smooth, "I just have to wait.."

"Not really, if you're hoping you could just adapt to the gravity and start to maneuver around easier, then I know you too well." Octonaughty made his way out, "The gravity changes at random, but you can expect it to in less than five minutes. Goodbye!"

"You thought this out.."

"Yes, it took me three weeks, but I did."

She hid her smirk as he left, "..So did I."

Twenty-one had woken up early, (again..) already halfway through the entire hallway she had found herself in.

"Fascinating, the walls are incredibly hot, but the floor is so cold, and wet. I'm surprised it hasn't evaporated yet."

A loud voice startled the mess out of her.
