E L E V A T O R [II fanfic]

~Crowded~ ~Chapter 1~

[A/N so I was looking up stuff for a building, it seems that a building story is around 10 ft, so... I chose 12 feet for each story, and 12 x 23 = 276 ft, right? So this should give you a estimate of how high they are. 276 feet = about 84 meters]

[SECOND NOTICE, I would like a ranked story (plz wattpad) so if your sensitive to blood, cursing or weird stuff geT OU T]

Sometime after the events of Inanimate Insanity ended, the group efforts to make a community building had created something amazing. Hotel OJ was small in comparison. 35 floors of pure goodness, each floor accustomed to all the needs of the objects who lived in Hotel OJ. Of course, why would the objects need such a space? After all, they had the hotel... well, after II ended. Mephone4 accidentally destroyed the hotel with his quality plane flying skills!

Today was supposed to be somewhat busy as many had lots of different plans. Some where already around and waiting, some where just arriving. Though none of them knew the tragedy to come in the next hour... and the days to come after it...

[Lobby of the Tower, 6 AM]

On the first floor of the building, which was the main lobby for the whole of the building, there waited Paintbrush for the left elevator since the right one was currently broken because yin-yang had pressed every button in a fight on which floor to go too. Paintbrush was fiddling with a smallish brown bag in their hands, "I wonder what LightBulb brung..." they mumbled to their self quickly being flooded of thoughts of what she could bring... cookie pizza.. normal pizza... maybe she'd bring- They were interrupted by the appearance of Fan in the side of their vision. "You looked like you where thinking hard there for a few seconds- aha! I wonder what Testtube wants from me-" Fan began to mumble and ramble on... something about ground activity... but PaintBrush listened, of course a bit annoyed, but he did. Someone Talking was so much better then the silence.

After that OJ showed up to wait as well, "large crowd today, huh?" he commented, hoping to spark a conversation with the other two. Though he only got a "mhm.." from Paintbrush and Fan was still on a ramble about Testtube, PaintBrush looking annoyed as ever. So OJ waited too, listening to fan, but more closely then PaintBrush was. 

Then the cherries arrived at the scene, fan had stopped rambling and was now texting, or writing something of the sorts. PaintBrush had a small conversation with OJ going on, and the cherries where thinking of all sorts of ideas to do on the theater floor. 

"Hello everyone!" A familiar friendly voice rang to them all, Suitcase had arrived at the scene now. She decided to join in the conversation of Paintbrush and OJ. The group was growing, getting chatty, but everyone noticed how long it was taking the elevator. So a few more minutes passed by when Marshmallow arrived as well, she decided to listen to the ideas the Cherries where brainstorming like crazy! Something about a dragon-object thing coming to save their prince in trouble.
DING...

The elevator was here! "At last! God that took forever." Paintbrush said in an annoyed tone. Though when the doors to the elevator opened, they simply saw box inside. Why was box here? No one dared to ask, after all box had their own ways of doing stuff.
"Will we all fit?" Fan asked, "we should, even with room for two more." OJ responded going in. So everyone followed suit and crowded in.. everyone pressing the buttons they needed.. each needing to go to a floor over  25.

.... the ride was silent, the air still except for the little elevator tune that played... It seemed that the crowded-ness of the elevator was ruining the atmosphere, and the fear that some showed leaked into the air... PanitBrush, OJ, Suitcase, Marshmallow, Cherries, Fan, and box where all in one moving room. Then the elevator stopped and opened, everyone was greeted by two familiar faces, on not so friendly and the other as sick as can be. Nickel and Tissues entered, Nickel just shoved his way into the corner while Tissues, over and over, said sorry and apologized. They didn't Mind though really as long as Tissues kept the mask on.
The doors closed and the elevator went up.. They all stood in silence.  The only thing they could do is wait, multiable attempts from either suitcase or OJ failed to make conversation at all.

[6:47 AM, Elevator. about a minute has passed ]

..first it was Fan to recognize it, the elevator halted and screeched. Everyone felt odd, then the whole thing shook, and suddenly they dropped. Screaming they dropped two floors, it wasn't fast enough to kill anyone but enough to hurt and sting. 

"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT!?" Nickel and PaintBrush said in unison both shocked but angered a bit, Paintbrush was getting up and so was everyone else. Fan was the last to get up, though at the exact same time the lights went out and rumbling happened again, everyone held on this time, except for box. The elevator swayed making thundering noises.. everyone could feel it, the elevator was stuck, and the grip that should of kept them from falling was extremely loose. The floor was tilted some.

It was suitcase who started to scream in sudden panic, she walked around, shaking.. 'whats happening..? oh god no.. it cant be-' the elevator swayed, only conforming her suspicions more... "OH GOD OH MY GOD WE ARE ALL GOING TO DIE HERE ITS GOING TO FALL!" She screamed, the elevator swayed more which caused a panic. Fan held onto railing and all the voices filled the fearful air at once-, "I THiNk i knOW WHAT TEST TUBE WANTED TO SEE ME ABOUT NOW-"

"gouuuyysss w-wh-ACHOO! wHATs happpoEning!??!" 

"GuyS CALM DOWN COMMON-!"

"nO No... its okay.. itll be okay. Right left?" " Yeah Right!"

"........" (box's silence)
"ITS NOT GOING TO BE OKAY HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT!?"
"I-I thought I checked the system!"
"oh yey. Stuck in here with a bunch of idiots.. "
The room lit into a red flame suddenly, and a harsh voice coated everyone elses screams
"oh -  FOR THE LOVE OF SANITY CAN YOU ALL JUST FUCKING CALM DOWN!?" Painty screamed, hushing everyone but also filling the room with smoke. Tissues was the first to start hacking and wheezing from it. The fire was the only light right now but also dangerous in a area like this.

They had everyone attention, all eight of them. "okay! There is nine of us, in this broken elevator. Fan what floor where we at?" Painty asked , "26.. we must of slid a good 3 levels down at least- and each story is 12 ft high, so 23 x 12 is.. uh.. " Fan used his phone to calculate how high they where, though he also noticed that his phone was getting no signal despite their position. "We are about 276 feet of the ground... Im not getting any signal.. I-I think a-"

Fan stopped talking the second everyone looked at him with horror...

They where 276 feet off the ground, in a broken loose elevator, with barely any food, water and cleanish air, with people they didn't particularly like.
