Chapter 4

                     "Flappy bird, really?" Amber asked sarcastic. I agree because this game looks like the first test and it wasn't that hard. So Cassidy tried first.

                     "Hey its not that baaaaaaa-" Cassidy screamed as she smashed into the top pipe, then fell into the bottom.

                     "Cassidy!" Amber called to her friend, worried. Then behind Amber, Cassidy appeared out of codes. Then a new bird came as well.

                     "OK I lied it is very, very hard," Cassidy said, with eyes wide, "And also those pipes feel like it goes on forever." Amber was on her phone, so I peaked and saw it was a program for advance hacking.

                     "Cassidy has 4 lives. And no if you run out of lives you don't die. We aren't murderers. Amber? what are you doing on your phone?" her phone turned blue and floated out of her hand. " Amber really I said no hack. Has your uncle ever said how I keep me word?" then her phone disappeared. "As punishment everyone has one life so Cassidy you are out!" everyone looked at her angry. So we pushed her in front to go first.

                     "Fine I'll go then," Amber declared. She went up and she got pass 7 pipes, more then Cassidy. Then Luna decided to go next. She went on and on and we thought she will make, but then she crashed on the 27th pipe. Last it is me. So have to go and if I fail, we all fail. So I started, extremely worried. Pass 1, pass 2, hey it's not that bad. Pass 25, pass 26, I can't get to relax yet. And before I know it I am at 50!

                     "Well good job Sunshine! You have shown you are the ones we have been waiting for. The tests were made to see if you are really the ones we need. Now I will teleport you to the lobby," and we are in the vortex... Again. But this time it was shorter. When we landed we saw a man in his 40s, with brown hair and hazel eyes. " Welcome to the secret research facility!" the man said, with lots of excitement.

                    "Professor Griffin? You were the one who tried to kill us?" Amber asked. This must be the man her family works for.

                    "No, no. Not kill, more like testing if you are the ones we need. We need you to play are games and make sure they aren't dangerous. And if they are, you will fight them. My mentor, the creator of this," he held a small blue box."This thing powers games as holograms of codes or a game in a screen. This is what brought you here. This is what made the tests."

                    "Whatever Professor." Amber grumbled, " Can I eat something?"

                    "Fine go down that hallway and turn left on the second room." Professor Griffin pointed at the hall. Amber went running toward the hall

                    "Professor Griffin, sir, why do you do this? Study that thing and use it for something illegal?" I had to ask.

                    "The government is always blind to see the good in things. They see video games as a distraction to education and a weapon to rotten brains. Some games were used to help kids in school, in a fun way. Other games were used for exercise. And most was made to open you imagination. A study some researchers found out that video games also help improve people on being social. We want to prove that video games aren't bad at all."

                   "OK then why do you steal different video games?" now Cassidy asked.

                   "You will see later." Professor Griffin answered. "I get Amber before she eats everything then you will test something we have been working on." and he started walking to the hall, but then stopped by with a young man, with brown hair. Professor Griffin whispered something to him and went on. The man started walking to us, then stopped and he started to speak to us. 

                   "Hi and welcome. My name is Conner, Professor told me to show you guys around" Conner gestured us to follow him. He took us down the hallway that Amber and Professor Griffin went down. He showed us the lounge where the staff can chill out. It had 4 vending machines, a ping pong table, a radio, and couches, and a thing Conner said called a XBox. Basically everything fun there. then he showed us the kitchen, where some of the chiefs and Amber was having a food fight and Professor Griffin was yelling at them to stop. "I would let you go meet the chiefs and and try some of the food, but they seem... busy. Lets go, quickly." and we went on.
