Soon after the doctors had gone, everyone woke up... Birdie reached out for her water but I yelled, "STOP!" And explained what I had saw... We all slowly edged towards the sink to tip away the water.
"I can believe it.." Annie whispered to me, "what do you think they will do to us?" She asked, shaking. I looked around and saw a vent.. "Look! A vent! We can escape!" I told everyone. All five of us turned and dashed towards the vent.
I tried opening it.. Locked. But then I realised a little key whole in the side. The medicine cabinet was next to it and I saw a loose screw at the very top. "TK, i need you to reach the screw!" I told him.
TK reached up and tugged at the screw. It came out quicker that expected... I twisted at the key whole with the screw.. "CLICK!" I had done it! Tim gave me a leg up into the vent and I helped Annie and Birdie up. TK and Tim were next... We heard footsteps.. We heard talking.
The two scrambled in and we placed the vent back on just in time.. We froze inside the vent.. The doctors approached the room and immediately went into panic mode.. They tore the room.. Searching for us..
Then they spotted the loose vent.. We closely packed together and held out breath. We didn't dare to move.. It was game over.. The doctor removed the vent just as we managed to crawl away..
I heard shouting behind me.. I saw the doctors behind us.. I took my last few breaths until... It was a blocked way..
Or so we thought it was... Soon after the doctors had gone, everyone woke up... Birdie reached out for her water but I yelled, "STOP!" And explained what I had saw... We all slowly edged towards the sink to tip away the water.
