Briar's pov
Well here I am! Walking, alone, down a cold and empty hallway looking for a room which I have no idea where to find! Where is it? Where am I? Gosh, I've gotten so lost in here! These hallways may as well go on forever! And why is it so cold? For a science lab, you'd have thought that it would be warmer! But, I can't stay here and complain. I came here for Myles, and I'm not leaving without him!

"Agh! Stop! Please stop- agh!"

I freeze. Was that.....Myles? Oh my gosh, it is! I have to get to him! Just as I'm about to run, I stop myself. I can't just run in, they'll hurt me too! I have to cause a diversion, but how? I know! I'll knock something over! They'll have to stop what they're doing to Myles, come and see what happens and that'll give me time to hide in the room over there! Once I hear them walk out, I can creep out of my hiding place and go to Myles' rescue! This is the perfect plan!

I quietly walk into a room opposite me and, luckily, it has a chest of draws. I open one, and see that it's full of test tubes. GLASS test tubes. If I knock a draw of these over, they'll smash and take longer to clean up! So, I knock a draw over and run into the next room.

As soon as I hear voices and the pieces of glass being picked up, I sprint out of the room I was hiding in to where I heard Myles' voice earlier on. However, when I finally get into the room, the sight before me is horrifying....

Sorry this is so short! I wanted to leave it on a cliffhanger 😉
