"But now we have to figure out how to get out before the trap gets triggered and we all die."
She told everyone as they all sat down and observed everything. Trying to figure out how this was going to work.
After a couple of hours had went by. Jadyn had stood up and was along the edge when she stepped on something.
"What was that?"

Thank You-
"It's a hatch!"
Harper yelled out as she ran to it. Her eyes filled with glee.
"Jadyn get off the button."
Fallon stated her voice laced with concern.
Jadyn smiled and shook her head.
"You guys can go on. I have to stay."
A stray tear fell down her cheek as she looked at them.
"Why?"
Heavyn questioned her eyes filling with tears.
"If I get off then we all die. Don't you hear the beeping?"
Jadyn asked as she wiped away the tear.
"Yes, but what is it?"
Joshua asked as tears fell down his cheeks. He knew what it was but he was hoping that he was wrong.
"It's a bomb that will blow once I move."
She answered as more tears fell.
"What? NO!"
Heavyn cried out as she collapsed onto her knees and sobbed. Blake grabbing her and pulling her to him, holding her close as she cried into his shoulder. Tears falling down his cheeks as well.
"Can't we put something on it instead?"
Konnor asked.
Jadyn shook her head and smiled sadly.
"Don't want to risk it. Plus there is nothing else in this room. The tables are bolted down to the ground. Plus it would most like have to be my exact weight. No more and no less."
Her voice breaking as she spoke.
"If you make it out. Will you find my baby girl and tell her mommy went to a better place. That mommy went to where daddy is. Please?"
Jadyn croaked out as her fingers fumbled into her back pocket where her wallet was. She pulled a picture out and held it out for someone to take.
Heavyn noticed it and without hesitating she stood up and took the photo. In the photo was Jadyn hugging a little girl close to her. The little girl had black that twirled into soft curls and a thin layer of bangs that hung just above her eyes. She had the brightest blue eyes and dimples on both sides of her face as she smiled widely. She wore a cream shirt with violet flowers decorating the bottom of it. Black tights and brown boots. Her fingers were curled up into what looked like finger hearts. Either that was intentional or she was in the middle of snapping when the picture was taken.
It looked like they were at a park because behind them was a fountain and lots of people walking around.
Red roses were placed around the fountain and a black fluffy puppy was at their feet. It looked like the puppy was smiling as well and it's ears were perked up.
"What's her name?"
Heavyn asked softly, her voice just barely above a whisper.
"Kathie. She is 4 years old."
Jadyn spoke as she tried to slow her breathing.
"I'll tell her. I promise."
Heavyn stated as she handed to Blake to put it into his pocket.
"Thank you."
Jadyn cried out as she sobbed uncontrollably.
"We got to go."
Diego said as him and Ravyn jumped down the hatch.
Konnor following next, then Fallon, Joshua, Harper, and Blake.
"You should go Heavyn."
Heavyn nodded slowly and smiled at Jadyn.
"Thank you. I will never forget you. But can't there be another way?"
She asked as she looked around.
Jadyn shook her head and motioned for her to go.
"Please go, before it's too late."
Heavyn cried as she nodded and started going down the hatch. As she landed on the floor. She saw Blake sitting on the floor. She observed their surroundings and noticed that this time they were in a hallway.
She sighed softly as everyone tried to get over having to leave someone behind to die.
Just as they began to walk away she heard a yell.
"THANK YOU GUYS! SURVIVE FOR ME!"
Jadyn yelled as she stepped off the button and that whole area blew up. Just like she had thought. That hatch had closes just in time so no flames went down underground with them.
"We will."
Harper mumbled as she cried into her hands.
As the walked they heard the voice speak again.
'Well done. Two down and 8 more to go. Oh and 6 more games as well.'
The voice chuckled and made Joshua scream out in anger.
"SHUT UP YOU SICK PSYCHO!"
He yelled out as he stuck up his middle finger and held it into the air. Pointing it in different directions since he wasn't for sure of he was watching and if so. Where he was watching them.
'Uh uh uh. You might loose a finger if you keep doing that you disrespectful boy.'
He replied as an arrow shot through the air, slicing Joshua's finger in half.
"CRAP!"
He screamed out as he looked at his finger and passed out, Konnor catching him and tearing off his over shirt and wrapping it around his finger to keep him from bleeding out.
"Joshua? JOSHUA?!"
Harper yelled out as she ran over to them.
'Hope that taught you guys a lesson. Now onto the third game.'
You could practically see the demonic smile that was plastered onto his face as he spoke. A door opened at the end of the hallway and a bright white light was all they could see.
