Last time:

The tour around the grid ended and the two boys  doesn't know what to do. Their  thoughts were interrupted when the ground shake and the walls parted ways and reveal a group of boys.

"We didn't find it" one of them said.

*didn't find what?* ashton thought

^meanwhile^

3rd Persons POV

"Ok boys. So your chores will be.... Fruit picking" Harold said

He point at the racks of high wooden sticks with various fruit hanging on them.

"After that you'll put the fruits there at the boxes and you're all done. If you want to tour the grid again you can but don't pass that line" Harold said while pointing at the red line far from the three boys.

Harold walked away and mike and ash do what they were told to do. They pick the fresh mangos and apples from the high wooden sticks.

"Hey ash" mike began a conversation, ash look at mike and said "what?" Mike began chatting about why aren't  they allowed to go past the line. Ash just shrugged and thoughts about the line came to his mind too. When they were done they both tour the grid and stop in front of the line.

"Why are we in front of the line,mike?"
Ash asked mike with pure confusion.

"I wanted to know why?" Mike said looking straight trough the walls that opened yesterday.

"Why what? You mean why did the walls opened?" Ash asked

Mike nod then started to walk back to the camp and they saw they were already setting a camp fire. It was getting dark but ash was still in front of the red line.

He was going take step front before someone yelled his name. He ran and went back to the camp where they started eating.

When it was already night time and all of the people in the grid were sleeping ash carefully open the wooden gate of his camp and walk straight to where the line was.

He breathed heavily and counted to three in his mind. Then he stepped forward, he look around but nothing happened so he walk to the wall that opened yesterday.

He started to touch it gently but it began to shake. Meanwhile back at the camp, Mike woke up and look at his bedside and saw there was no ash sleeping humbly in the bed. He suddenly thought where ash is and ran straight to the line and there he was he saw ash out cold infront of the wall. He walk to where ash is and carry him bridal style. As they got to their camp, mike put ash back to his bed and he went to his.

He didn't notice that he fell asleep while watching ash sleeping. When he woke up ash was still sleeping. He stand up and went to Harold's camp he knew that theres something wrong about ash so he thought maybe Harold can help him.

He told Harold what happened and harold did help them.

"He's just tired mike. Its ok" harold said to mike and left. So mike did his chores and when he get back at his camp he saw ash looking down at his feet. Mike look at him and ask "what happened? What did you do? Are you ok?"

"Wait, ok? First I was just touching the wall when it began to shake and I began panicking. But after I turn my back my vision got blurry and I don't know what happened. Im ok" ash answered mikes question.

"Don't do that again......" mike said and began walking away.

"...or they'll kill you" with that he walked away and left a dumbfounded ash.
