"Taylor, seriously... Let me up!" Ashlyn demanded but was ignored as Taylor nuzzled into her neck from behind.

The time is now 12 am (? I don't use AM and PM where I'm from) and they were all gathered in Lovisa's room. To discuss what Maverick had told Ben earlier that day.

"So this 'Maverick' wants to help us?" Tyler questioned sitting in the edge of the bed.

"Don't ignore me!" Ashlyn yelled and continued to struggle.

"I don't think we should trust him. He sounds real shady from the description Ben gave. He even has an evil name, Maverick..." Lovisa started, she didn't like this 'Maverick' at all. "Besides why would he ask a kid for help with something like that? He also acted like he knows what happens at night, that we can contact each other."

Ashlyn stopped struggling accepting that Taylor wasn't going to let her go. She then scowled thinking about what her friend said about him knowing. "Yes, from the way Ben described his looks. He was the man standing next to the woman who put us in this mess. It seemed as if he was her boss. He doesn't want to help us, he wants to use us." She concluded and glared at nothing in particular.

After a few moments of silence Ben started typing and Siri red the message. "...It doesn't matter. If we join him and destroy this place, we'll have our freedom back and we can deal with them later." He shared his opinion.

"He never mentioned our freedom through, did he? Just that his group wanted to take the facility down." Tyler said

"Ben we're just as upset about this but we can't rush into trusting this guy." Taylor said. Her voice slightly muffled since her head was still in Ashlyns neck.

"We can't rush into it... but do we have a choice?" Logan asked. "Alex offered to do whatever he can to help us escape... But escape and taking this place down are two different things." He expressed his thoughts.

Logan was probably the one who has had the biggest physical change since they were locked up there. His face lost fat and became sharper. He also gained some noticeable muscle on his arms. He was definitely getting more attractive.

"This is the government. We'd have to leave the country or something and even then we could still be tracked. As well as we likely wouldn't be able to escape and free our parents at the same time." Logan said, being smart and thinking about outcomes and other options.

"I agree with Ben and Logan... We join this group, take the facility down, and if Maverick turns on us, then we'll deal with him." Said from his place beside his cousin on the wooden table. "I'd rather go up against some vigilante group than the government."

After hearing everyone's opinions Ashlyn started to think about everyone's points but stuck slightly more in what Lovisa had said. "So what exactly is he wanting us to join him for?" She asked Ben.

"... He thinks that he can potentially open 'rifts' between our two dimensions." Siris voice sounded out the room. "That if we can figure out how to control it... Then we can mess with their systems like what happened with Ashlyn earlier. But it wasn't just Ashlyn, all of the cameras in our rooms blacked out except Ashlyn's since she was in that other room. The only reason our lights didn't stay off was because there was a backup generator for them, but it takes a bit for the camera system to reboot. At least that's how he explained it." Siri voiced what Ben had said.
