Seven Terrible Nights

Ch. 3 "The Space? No, An Unearthly Room"

Mazen, The Crying Baby, was crying uncontrollably for the second time, but this time there were other weeping boys present as well. They would all soon start crying.
They had the right to do that, though.

"I can't handle it anymore; I don't want to die here; I'd rather die burned than die eaten!!" said Sami.

"With two fatalities thus far, who will be next? I don't want to pass away; I don't want to see one of us die!!" Josef said.

Peter was in the corner doing something, even though he wasn't sobbing.

"Peter, what are you up to???" asked Haroon.

"Shhhh!"

"PARDON?!!" burst Haroon.

"Shhhh..." whispered Peter.

"What the hell are you doing there, Peter?" Sami said, "Haroon's gonna hit you."

(Peter remains silent)

"Hey, Peter..?" Josef said

Peter remained motionless as they drew nearer to him.

They discovered that Peter was engrossed in a book about Water molecules.

"YOU..." Haroon grabbed the book from him and used it to strike Peter in the head.

"Ouch! Hey! I was in an interesting part!"

"Are you serious, bro?" Shadi asked.

"heh-" Peter sighs, "Sorry".

while Haroon, Sami and Shadi were scolding Peter, unexpectedly, an enigmatic water begun to pour on them nonstop!

"Help! I can't swim!" Mazen shouted in fear

After sprinting to save him, Khalid placed him on his back.

Peter was gazing around, trying to figure out how he might get out of this situation. And he discovered an enigmatic lever!

"Walk behind me!" He shouted.

They all walked behind him as they hadn't no other choice. And when he pulled up the lever, a door opened from somewhere, just as he had predicted!
With the water steadily rising, they began to swim through the door.

They entered a room, but there was no gravity there.

"Did we die?" Said Mazen, slowly opens his eyes.

Khalid answered, "No, I think we're in the space."

"I'm too cold..." Said Haroon

"Me too," replied Josef.

"We should wait until our clothe...."

"Heeeeee, I'm flying; hahaha, look at me, I'm a butterfly!" said Sami, interrupting Peter.

"Sami, stop playing around!!" Peter shouted.

The layout of the chamber resembled a spacecraft. Is it not surreal that they are flying without being in space? Further, given that it's in an old house, how can it have this design?

Sami was playing football with a vase when, predictably, he kicked it into the wall assuming it wouldn't break, but it broke.

All of them were taken aback and anticipated the beast's arrival.

After waiting for several minutes, nothing happened.

"It's not coming...?" Haroon asked.

"It used to come suddenly, but it hasn't appeared yet; that's weird," Peter replied.

"I think it's good news that it didn't appear," Josef replied.

"Maybe," Peter said.

In that quiet moment, Shadi added, "Let's get some sleep."

"I remain chilly," said Mazen. "Am I going to die soon?"

"Don't say that; that's normal because we were drowning in the water," Shadi replied.

They have no idea what time it is or if it's even day or night. They are clueless. And they were freezing, starving, and exhausted.

"I'm hungry," Sami said.

"Dear Sami, you're always hungry." Josef replied

"HUH," Sami rolled up his eyes.

After an hour, Sami was still flying all over the place and they were doing nothing but staring at the wall while Shadi's sleeping.

"What should we do at this point? Are we going to simply gaze at each other until the day we die?" Peter asked.

"What do you think? We're not even able to get any sleep." Said Shadi

"You guys are heartless." Says Mazen

"Mazen, we shouldn't just cry; we should do something to get out of here and take revenge for our friends," Josef responded.

Sami was exploring the room during their conversation. He discovered some canned food in a chest of drawers!

"HEY, STARVING MEN! I FOUND SOME FOOD!!"Sami shouted

"What! Where?" Haroon said

"Is it expired?" Mazen said.

But Sami had already begun to open the cans, and the chaos started.

"Wait, Sami! we should see its expiration date!" Peter said

"Hungry cow," Shadi murmured.

"Come, come, I think it's actually good!" said Sami

"Is it peanut butter?"

"Oh, there's canned beans!"

"There's corn here too!"

And they began to devour the canned food, Happily.
