after messing around for a bit, we set down our bags and equipment in a pile by the front door. evan and i set up the cameras while the guys chatted. once we were ready, we all walked over to the elevators and just stood there.

"this is the elevator?"

"yes. elsia lam went in this elevator"

"so this is the last place she was seen?"

"yeah, right inside this elevator"

"holy shit"

"i think we should start with matt and lillith blindfolded, take them to a random floor, walk them to a random room, make 'em count to 100, leave them there while we investigate and they have to find us"

i looked at elton and he laughed.

"do you see her face right now?"

"elton, why?"

"because matt is the newest, and he needs a buddy"

"he does not need a buddy"

"well, actually i think he does"

i looked at matt and he immediately took his last sentence back.

"what about brandon?"

"he proved himself"

"so the well meant nothing?"

"you got out early"

"no i did not..... you know what fine, ill go"

elton reached into his bag and pulled out a blindfold and tied it around my head. when both matt and i were completely blindfolded we all walked into the elevator. if it wasn't for corbin leading me where to go i would have definitely walked right into a wall. they pushed a button for a random floor and the elevator started to ascend. i heard the elevator doors click as we hit a floor and felt corbin grab my hand as they led us out.

"lets go to the right"

"oh god"

we walked for a little bit longer before reaching what i assume was a dead end because of the echo. corbin let go of my hand and handed me a camera that was already recording.

"ok here were are. so lillith is in charge of filming while matt gets a flashlight that.... does not work"

"what?"

"ok, count to 666 and then come find us"

"no, ill count to 66, not 666"

"be safe lilli"

"i will"

"she'll be so safe"

the rest of the guys walked off leaving matt and i by ourselves.

"wait, i don't get any special wishes?"

"matt, just..."

"just what?"

"be quiet, im trying to see how many footsteps they are away"

"how would that help us?"

"i don't know, but im willing to try anything"

we laughed and just stood there in silence until i heard the elevator ding. when it did, i took off the blindfold and looked around. matt took down his hood and clicked the flashlight to see if it worked.

"well, elton wasn't lying"

"wait, why are some of the doors open?"

"i don't know, but this place is creepy as shit"
