twenty-six

i explained to vance what danny told us to do and we immediately got to work. it hurt like a bitch but if this was a way out, i'd do anything.

vance used the lid on the toilet and began hitting the wall with it. we took turns. this happened for hours and hours.

"you're done. let me do it." vance said, taking the lid from me and smashing it onto the wall.

i huffed and stepped back, crossing my arms as i watched him. i hate when he does this, he acts like it's only him in this world and he has no one to help him.

im here.

let me help.

he took a break though by sitting on the bed and staring at the wall, not moving or talking. this lasted 5 minutes until he got up and continued.

vance kept digging and digging until he hit something hard. i jumped up off the bed as he threw the toilet lid on the ground. the two of us started digging away the dirt and saw....metal.

it was metal. we gave each other a look as we noticed bolts in the corners but we had nothing to unscrew them with.

wait a second.

"hold on vance."

i walked over to the toilet and stuck my hand into the disgusting water and fished something out. it was the handle part and i took the screw off of it then handed it to vance.

he put the bolt over the screw and used it as a screwdriver. it worked. we threw the bolts on the ground and yanked the panel off.

"we're getting out!" i smiled, giving vance a hug.

he smiled, "this fucker is so stupid."

we then noticed something.

another gate of some sort.

vance pulled it out and i thought we were finally free but that wasn't the case. there was cold meat. tons of it.

vance climbed into the freezer with the help of me and he began hitting the freezer door with his shoulder.

"vance, it's not working."

i helped him out and we both collapsed onto the ground, exhausted.

i couldn't believe this.

we are actually never getting out.

we're stuck here.
