I walk up closer to the door and reached down to grab the handle. I turned it and pushed on the door. It opened with a WHOOSH and revealed a dark room full of gadgets.
"What the heck is all this?" Jack asks as he takes a step inside.
"I don't have any idea" I replied, following him through the room. There were tables and shelves everywhere, all filled with blueprints, research, and random little gizmos. I walked over to the wall and flipped a switch, turning on the light, and illuminating the room. Jack looked around at everything, just taking in all this new information. Both of us occasionally pick up something, examine it, and set it back down. "Look at this, Jack." I said and Jack walked up behind be and looked over my shoulder. "It's some sort of brainwashing device..." he hummed as a response and rested his chin on my shoulder. I look over and see him yawn the cutest little yawn I have ever seen, like a little kitten ready for a nap.
"So, are you thinking that since this whatchamacallit was probably used to brainwash you and the rest of the crew, that it could work like a snake bite; use it on them again as an antidote?" Jack inquired, explaining exactly what I was thinking.
"Exactly." I said smiling at the tired boy resting on my shoulder. "Oh, and I think I know the perfect time to use it... There is a assembly-type gathering tomorrow morning. We could go in and use this on everyone at once instead of tracking them all down."
Jack yawned once again, mumbling "Sure, sounds like a plan." Then he leaned more on me as I turned around, noticing he fell asleep on me. I lifted him up gently, bridal style, with one arm under his back and one under his knees. I walk out of the door and kick an empty box over by the door so I can find it again. I walk down the hall to the spare room and plop Jack onto the bed. I went into the storage room and tried to find some spare clothes for Jack and I. I found some and brought them back into the other room, helping change Jack, partly waking him up to do so. I took off my pants, changing into the sweatpants I found. Then right before falling asleep from exhaustion, I took off my shirt and jacket and fell back on the bed along side Jack, flipping the blanket over the both of us and I immediately nod off to sleep.
