Through the door was a strange room, filled with metal poles, saws, bright lights and holes in the floor.
N- "Be careful, Stanley."
Stanley could barely see due to the blindingly bright lights.
Suddenly, his foot slipped and he found himself hanging from the platform with one hand. He managed to pull himself back up. He slowly moved back away from the hole, but slipped again, this time hitting his head on a pole. He fell backward, screaming in pain, which seemed to startle The Narrator. Stanley fell just inches away from a saw, which made a deep cut on his forehead.
N- "Stanley, we have to get back on track and finish the story. We don't have time for what you humans call "sleeping""
Stanley remained unresponsive.
N- "Stanley. Wake up..."
Silence filled the room. The Narrator noticed the severely bleeding cut on Stanley's forehead.
N- "STANLEY ARE YOU OK?!"
He started to panic as he rummaged around his messy desk, trying to find the button that would let him into the game.
He grabbed a first aid kit, pushed the button and dropped from a panel in the ceiling of Stanley's office. He sprinted as fast as he could down the hallway. He was moving so fast that he very nearly took the left door instead of the right.
When The Narrator made it to Stanley, he knelt down to check his pulse.
His heart is still beating, but his pulse is so slow. Almost like it could stop at any moment. He thought
He carefully wrapped a bandage around Stanley's head.
The Narrator slowly picked up Stanley and left the room, going back through the cargo room, and down the hallway, back to the employee lounge. He put him down on one of the couches in the room, then decided to call the Curator and Mariella for help.
C- "Hello? What do you want? You're meant to be narrating the story for Stanley!"
N- "Hey... uhhh yes umm... about that-"
C- "What did you do this time"
After The Narrator explains
C- "OMG IS HE OK?!"
N- "I don't know! His pulse is really slow and I can't feel him breathing! What do I do, sis? The parable can't lose it's main protagonist! What if he DIES?!"
At this point, The Narrator was on the verge of tears.
C- Don't worry! I'll get Mariella, then her and I will come meet you in the employee lounge and we can talk this out.
