Inspired by once again: FullMetalNinja75It was a day like any other, I went to the main building to start off my internship. The parking lot was flooded with cars in every direction.
"Im gonna be late." I tell myself.
I walk into the elevator with 2 buisness men on the phone, a lady with a giant pink hat and tall black heals, a man wearing work out gear and a man wearing sunglasses and a black and white suit. We all click the the 5th floor button.
We all waited in the elevator tight and awlward until the man wearing sunglasses faces us and says "So, I bet you are wondering why gathered you here today." And slams the emergency stop button.
The elevator slaps into a steep stop causing all of us to slam into each other.
"What on ear this wrong with you !?" The tall pink hat woman screeches. "I have a fashion line to direct !"
"Is this some kind of joke ?" The work out guy asks.
The man simply grins and smiles and looks straight at them.
"Well come to project 249 where I am here to conduct and experiment you people. I am Steven Gomez and will be your instructor in this project."
The two buisness man holding brief cases look directly at the man and head towards him. "Look we have a case to cover in 30 minutes, if you do not let us go I will not hesitate to call the authorities !" One if them yells.
The other man glances at his phone with disappointment and mutters "No signal."
Just when I couldn't think his sinister smile couldn't have gone wider, the corners began to rise. His eyes were amused at the sight.
I look around at how little space we have a slowly begin to panic.
"Now I will as a series of questions to each individual. If one of you answer wrong, all will be electrocuted by the bolts I placed on the floor. After a certain amount of time I will let you all free." The man with sunglasses states.
The man wearing gym clothes tries to grab the man with sunglasses but instead he disappears.
"He was a damn hologram !" The woman with the pink hat yells.
The screen on the corner turns on and reveals the man with sunglasses sitting in a white room.
"Let's get the experiment started !" The speakers boom from the sides of the elevators.
"There has to be a way out." I tell them. I grab the phone on the side and find the wire cut.
"Oh honey there no escape. Unless you want to fall out of place." The door opens and below us is absolute darkness underneath.
"Question number one, you pinky over there." He signals at the woman with the pink hat behind me.
"What is the radius of the sun" he asks.
"Huh?" She responds
"Wrong answer." The man says over the speakers and press the button next to him.
The floor suddenly zaps all of us with flashes coming from left to right.
"You sick bastard!" The first business man yells. "Get out out of here !"
"Okay you can answer the next question if you wanna leave so badly what is the color of the sky ?" He asks the buisness man.
"Is this some trick question!!!?!?" He yells angrily.
"Wrong answer again." The man presses the button again.
The floor heats up once again sending zaps in our body.
"Just answer the damn question I tell them." I gasp for air and hit the screen of the corner of the elevator. It completely shatters and drops a file next to it.
"Correct !" The speakers booms and turns the elevator back on. We all gaze at each other until it finally stops at the 5th floor. The two men on suits immediately call for help while the others run for helpm
They all exit the elevator while I pick up the file.
I walk out the elevator with the file and head to the office. "Im sorry im late." I tell the Secretary "Where is my mentor might I ask." The woman points to the side and standing right in front of me stands the man with the sunglasses.
"I see you found the file." He smiles.
