Tanner had been lying in his bed, trying to sleep before it happened. He just got up and suddenly appeared in this room. Walls made out of pillows of some sort, completely white, roof and everything. The only differing colors was a gray speaker on the wall and a door with a turned off light. The only light in the room that was on, was above him.
"Wha-" He began but a person appearing in the corner of the room made him stop. "Can't you just understand? I'm tired- huh?" They say, slowing down by the end of the sentence. "Where am I?" She says, turning to Tanner who just shrugs. Another person appears, asleep. Tanner steps towards them and they shuffle and wake up.
"I just got to bed, cmon-" They say, getting up. "This isn't my room." They say, looking around.
He looks at Tanner and asks: "Who are you?". "I'm Tanner, you?" Tanner replies.
"Axel." He says, noticing the other person in the room. "What's your name?" Axel yells to the girl. "I'm Emma." She says, right when another person appears. They look around, confused.
"Hello?" She says, nervously. "Hi." Emma replies, walking over to her. "D-Do you know where we are?" The nervous girl asks. Everyone replies with "no." Another person appears in the middle of the room. "The heck?" They say looking around. "Where the crap are we?" Everyone shrugs. "Great, we don't know where we are or how we got here." Emma says. Tanner just realizes that, how did he get here?
A voice interrupts his thoughts. "Hello." the speaker says. Everyone looks at the speaker. "WHERE THE [Redacted] ARE WE!?" Emma yells. Axel jolts in fear. "Calm down miss," The speaker says, "You five are here to-". The voice suddenly cuts out. Everyone waits for the voice to come back but it doesn't. "Okay then." Emma says. "We never got your names." She says. "Oh s-sorry. It's Krista." Krista responds. "And you?" She points to the person in the middle of the room. "Name's Isaac." Isaac responds. Everyone just sits in silence after that.
Tanner walks up to the door. It was a metal door with no scratches or anything on it, just a slab of metal. He knocks on the door. "Hello?" He says. Nobody responds. Tanner walks back to Axel, who's laying on the floor. "Guess there's no getting out." Tanner says. "You knocked on the door once and you're giving up?" Axel responds, sitting up. "I mean, yeah. What else could we do?" Tanner says, sitting with him. "Have you tried ripping off one of these pillows?" Axel responds. Tanner thinks for a second. "I haven't but, do you really think it'll be that easy to escape? Just, destroy a pillow?" He says. "Probably not." Axel says and then lays down.
Tanner watches as Emma rips off one of the pillows on the wall to reveal metal behind it. "[Redacted] it!" She yells as she tosses the pillow across the room, hitting Isaac. "Ow!" Isaac says and throws the pillow back at Emma. She grabs the pillow and walks over to Isaac. They both stare at each other until Emma hits Isaac softly with the pillow. "Oh, I thought you were gonna kill me with that." Isaac says. Just then, Emma sweeps his legs and throws the pillow at him. Isaac is either silent or knocked out. Emma walks back to the metal wall and kicks it.
Axel gets up and checks on Isaac, who is not knocked out. "You okay?" He asks. Isaac gets up and nods. Tanner walks over to them and grabs the pillow on the ground. "This is kinda a weird question but, where are you from?" Axel asks. "I'm from Washington." Tanner says. "Oh, I was asking Isaac." Axel responds. Before Tanner could respond, Isaac had started talking. "I'm from Pennsylvania." He says.
Tanner looks over to Emma, who had ripped off another pillow. She looks at him and throws the pillow directly at Isaac. Before Tanner could catch it, Axel grabs it right before it hits Isaac and places it on the ground. "Enough with the pillows!" He says, walking over to Emma. "Oh he's gonna get killed." Isaac says jokingly. Emma just stares at Axel while he walks over to her.
Suddenly, the lights turn off. Tanner waits for his eyes to adjust to the darkness. Something taps his shoulder and he jumps. Isaac laughs as he pulls back his hand. "Why did you do that?" Tanner says." Isaac shrugs and walks over to Axel and Emma. Tanner lays down and realizes that this probably means it's night time, wherever this is. Tanner doesn't notice his eyes slowly close as he falls asleep.
