The lights shut off without a warning, the room was filled with silence in mere seconds. Terror fill most of the survivors, while others rather saw this as a an opportunity for a unforgettable bravery.
A somewhat loud voice called over the assembly of near blinded people in the area.
"We mustn't wait to get the lights one. The creatures that lurk beyond the steel will break inwards soon." *a masculine voice said with a raspy voice*
*soon more voices came outwards trying to calm the crowd and answer questions*,
"But Maverick," *a feminine voice called out with a soft and welcoming tone* "Who would volunteer? We've never had a power-outage. Let alone we have nothing to protect ourselves in the dark!" she asked out worried
it was true. The gathering had never gotten a flashlight. Or any type of hand-held light source before.
"Ellie, your concerns are reasonable yet we do not want the darkness like this anymore? Am I correct..?" Maverick said in a harsh tone, he disliked, Ellie yet he could live with her
a younger voice spoke up
"Shall me and my sister volunteer..?" a boy spoke up. He spoke with a strong accent
"Is Oliver and Merry truly volunteering?" some people about in the throng whispered
"Only if you wish" Maverick spoke setting any of the gossiping people to become silent
The silence grew in the room for seconds. And as seconds turned into minutes Oliver spoke out again
"I am...- Certain we want to volunteer" Oliver said with a stern look. Even if no-one could see it
"Are you sure?" Merry whispered sheepishly to Oliver
"I'm sure" he whispered back
A cold unnerving feel came over the cramped room. The feeling of dread or death lurking around the corner. The errie feel would be broken
"I'm picking a proper group. As we know Oliver and Merry have volunteered. Yet we still need more people. I've already made my choice, Loyal, Everest and Iva shall go with Oliver and his sister" Maverick spoke sternly "all of you meet at the exit"

The five would walk over to the cold door that kept the goos from killing everyone and everything
"Welp since this maybe our last trip We should most likely introduce ourselves . I'll go first, I'm Loyal goldwood, but I prefer to just go by gold" loyal said in a somewhat low voice
a kind seeming yet tired toned voice said quickly "im Iva bry"
"Well. We're Oliver and Merry Lock" Merry said gaining bravery to speak to the strangers
"Everest" a girl said barely caring for the conversation
"On to the mission, is everyone ready?" Loyal said with a slight sigh
*everyone nodded in agreement as they stared to the power-grid*
