Eight spent most of the night digging,until he reached a place where the barrier stopped him. It was annoying,but expected. Now that they had a good place to hide the stuff they'd use to escape...it was just the barrier in their way now.

"Eight! Breakfast!" Five called from outside,as eight climbed out of the hole,setting down the shovel and covering it up.

"You've been down there a while,you know." Five said,handing him a bowl. "I was just making a good place to hide the stuff we'd use for escape." He replied,eating the food. It wasn't much,just oatmeal,but it was better than nothing.

It was a very quiet breakfast,as no one was really in a chatty mood. I mean,what could they say? It was a bleak quietness. After breakfast,they went back to brainstorming on how to get rid of the barrier.

"Have we tried acid?" Seven asked,which made five shudder groan "seven,where would we even get acid? I'm pretty sure that's not something just anyone would have."

"Six did. Buckets of it." Nine said quietly,pointing over to six's pile of 'prank' stuff. "They were planning to prank seven with it."

"Rude..." seven mumbled,crossing their arms.

"Let's try it." Eight picked up the bucket,and went into the dirt tunnel he made,right at the barrier. He splashed the acid onto the barrier,seeing it corroded away some of it.

"It's working!" He shouted,before climbing back out. "Let's get to work!"

Everyone grabbed a bucket,and started to erode the barrier. They put multiple holes and cracks in the barrier at this point.

"We're doing it! Yes!"

They were so happy and excited that they were finally going to leave...

They didn't notice infinity and six approaching quickly.

Zero noticed them,and tried to warn the others,but it was too late.

"What's this?" Infinity said,which startled all of them. "So you found the single weakness of the barrier...how interesting! I'm a fair person though,so I'll only punish the person that made this escape plan." Infinity concluded,before looking at all of them "I'll give you 15 seconds to step forward,or I'm picking at random."
