Philippa's P.O.V.

The moment I saw the boy who looked familiar get sucked into the computer screen, the lights of the library began to flicker. The other girl with him, whom I assumed was his sister, screamed and dropped her book. We looked around for the librarian but she was no where to be found.

I gripped Cameron's hand tightly and he stiffened but quickly relaxed. We rushed over to the girl who was panicking as the lights continued to flicker on and off, like a child would do to scare a friend.

"What's your name?" Cameron asked her lightly. The girl looked at us with wide eyes. I recognized her as the girl from the park earlier that day. She recognized me too. Slowly she whispered tearfully,

"Uma. That was my twin brother who just got sucked in there. I-I.... What can we do!" she ended with an exclamation. I sighed inwardly as I looked at her.

"I guess there really isn't much...we need help... We need to get out of here-" I began just as the whole town went completely black. That is except for the computer that the boy had just entered. It's screen glowed an eery flickering blue. Coded words continued to scroll up and down the screen.

I'm not sure why but very slowly I approached it.

"Phil....," Cameron began nervously, "Phil. I don't think that's a smart idea." but I didn't stop moving slowly towards it. I didn't let go of his hand. I felt him reach behind him and I knew he had grabbed ahold of Uma's hand too.

Each footstep I took felt like a mile. I felt as if time had slowed down to nothing. Like there was no one besides me there at that moment. In the back of my mind I heard Cameron's warning and Uma's whimper as I reached out slowly.

My eyes were parallel with the screen and my hand moved like it had a mind of it's own. Soon enough it was fully spread and barely an inch away from the screen. I closed the short distance, and the moment I touched the blue screen the energy coursed through us and all three of us were sucked in.

Dr. Vortex's P.O.V.

There was a muffled squeak from outside my office door and I knew I was soon to receive some bad news from some timid servant of mine forced in by the others. I was right in guessing so for at the next moment the door opened and the young mousy technician girl, Millie, was shoved inside.

Quick footsteps were heard retreating. I merely chuckled to myself as I watched the mousy girl cower before me. And I wasn't even standing. I smirked quietly.

"Any news for me Millie? Did the major vacuum go as planned?" Millie nodded quickly, and even in her wide alert eyes I knew she wasn't lying.

I stood up and moved away from my desk and leather chair and began to stroll calmly towards her. She pressed herself up against the wall even more.

"But there must be something..." I said even though she didn't reply after my left off comment. I was a mere foot away from her now. I took agonizingly slow steps. "Yes. They wouldn't have shoved you in here unless there was something, unsatisfactory, for me to know now would they?" Millie gulped.

I found myself centimeters away now. Millie wasn't very tall for I towered over her. She looked up at me and nodded again, scared to make eye contact. I leaned my head down. My mouth was next to her ear now. I could feel her heart pounding out of her chest.

In a low whisper I purred as I gently slipped my arm around her,

"Don't be shy Millie. I only want to know the problem so I can fix it." I felt her shiver and slowly melt into me the way so many others had. They all believed I would actually care about them. Too bad when they came back for more they always tried too hard. I liked women who respected me and were afraid. Not ones who thought that I needed them.

I felt her gulp and speak in a soft yet mildly flirtatious voice,

"Three people have entered of their own accord. One other who was with them wasn't brought to the fields of Narcolypsey." she told me. My grip tightened, not from seductive skills but from worry.

"How did this happen?" I continued my whole facade. She buried her face into my chest before she told me,

"They have a transporter with them. She went unnoticed by our original radars. My heart nearly stopped for a minute. I loosened my grip on Minnie a little, I had gotten what I needed. I pressed my lips softly to her cheek trying not to gag.

"Thank you Millie," I told her with false appreciation, "that's exactly what I wanted to know." she blushed and gave me a small smile.

"Uh-erm-eh-Uh," she stuttered and she traded to find the door handle to leave, "Ya-you-You're welcome Dr. Vortex." and then she left.

I sighed. The things I had to do to get my own servants to talk to me! Oh how it annoyed me oh so greatly. Very quietly I pulled my tranquilizer pistol and a few other necessary supplies out of my desk and began to change to enter the world I had created.

A world made out of codes.

Entry Number ~ 0111000.

Philippa's P.O.V.

I think we fell asleep for a while because I sure wasn't the first one aroused out of the sharp electrical currents that caused us to black out. When my eyes fluttered open I saw Cameron staring at me nervously. He smiled in relief and gave me a big hug to make sure I was okay.

Uma was helping her brother who was still out of it even though he had been the first to enter. It was then that I realized what we were wearing. Our normal casual Autumn clothes were now gone and replaced with skin tight body suits. Uma's was black with deep purple accents on it. I realized that mine was white with brilliant sky blue accents. It was then that self-consciousness took over. I never wore anything tight. EVER. Especially not in front of Cameron.

I was so embarrassed by that point that I didn't realize that Cameron was definitely staring at me in places he had never stared before. As I flushed bright pink I cleared my throat and Cameron snapped out of it. He realized what he had done and he flushed pink as well.

"Uh-," he began awkwardly, "I'm glad you're okay.... But where are we?" he asked as he looked around the odd florescent jungle before us. I reached over and touched a flower near to me but it snapped off and became just pixels in my hand. I looked at it's fragile structure as it fell apart in my hands.

Wherever we were I knew that this place had some serious technical decorating going on. I shook the flower dust out of my hand as I stood up. I looked at Cameron and took in his black and royal blue bodysuit before I looked up at the pink tinted sky.

"I have no idea." I told him.
