Testing Day
--------
We walk through the doors and it looks like one of those storage garage buildings. I look around, disappointed.

The instructor leads us into different storage garages. They look way better than how I used to live inland.

There is at least four bunk beds for each contestant who lasted. I climb onto the to the top bunk and immediately rest my head on a pillow.

"Isn't this nice?!" I ask, for the first time sounding actually happy. My group-mates smile at me and some people from another group do too. Then I look at José.

"You do know they only put two stitches on your wrist, right?"

I feel kind of suffocated. With him looking at me, I feel like I can't properly breath.

I hop from the top bunk, and walk into the hallway.

"Where ya going?" Teigan asks.

"To get some fresh air." I say.

"What fresh air, you can't leave."

I turn around and sigh. "Why couldn't you just let me believe that I was able to go outside?" I say as I walk back and hop onto my bunk.

"Because, then I would worry weather you were alright or not." He says smirking.

I explore to see wether he is actually genuine. Then he laughs and José and Rafael pat him on his back.

I groan loudly and put my head under my pillow.
Then I suddenly fall asleep.

--------------------------
I wake up, I can't tell wether or not it's morning so I just get up and go to get some "fresh air" I was hoping for. Really I just wanted to get away from them.

I walk into the hallway and notice that the entrance we came through is suddenly closed off.
I slam on it with my fist.

"Hey, open up!" I yell. I slam non-stop until I'm out of breath.

I rest my head on the sealed off door. I start to explore the building a slight bit more. There are people still sleeping in other garages.

Then there's a screen with, what looks like binary.
It's right next to a chute, for something. I shrug my shoulders. I just need a way out of here.

It seems as if Teigan can read my thoughts, as he walks from around the corner to where I'm standing, thinking.

"What's this?" He asks.

I explain to him it's simple binary. He nods.

"Everyone get down here!" He yells and I jump from being surprised.

Footsteps one-by-one running down the hall. I roll my eyes and stomp off. He's always trying to be leader. He runs after me and grabs my arm.

"Did I do something wrong?"

"What are you even trying to do?"

"Trying to past the test with the help of other people."

"So you're using them?"

He looks into my eyes, hoping for mercy. But, it's too late.

"That's what I thought."

I have never felt such anger built up this much. I stomp away for good this time. I just happen to find another chute.

"Hello?!" I yell. Echoes travels far up the chute and I start to climb. I climb higher and higher. I hit the chute opening open and I'm in some control centre.

"Hello there, Klynn."
