How does it feel?

The Trial

       Lou rushed forward, but Tuesday grabbed his hand.

       "What are you doing!? Let me go!"

       "Lou! We won't done our mission without you! You won't have time to pull her back!"

       "And? Do you want me to LEFT her like this?"

       "The girls and I will follow her! Platform will most likely just go upstairs later! We'll get out with her!"

       Lou thought for a second. Kitty and Lydia ran up to him.

       "Hey, we were wonderfully oriented in an unfamiliar city! We won't be lost here anyway! We'll get her out!" Lydia said.

       "Okay..." Lou replied calmly.

       Tuesday released his hand and smiled.

       "Trust us, okay?"

       Lou said nothing. The spy girls exchanged glances and hurried to the platform. Soon, all sounds died down and Lou, Moxy, Ox, Alan and Tara just stood in silence. They all didn't know how to react, what to say to Lou, or what to do next.

        "Everything will be fine, Lou..." Ox said quietly.

       Again, he said nothing. After a few seconds, one of the dolls broke the silence.

       "Why did they go together?" Tara excitedly looked at Alan. "At least one of them could stay..."

       "They just have a collective mind. Don't worry, everything will be fine. He won't touch you," Lou replied suddenly.

        Tara smiled nervously when Alan looked at her with displeasure. She didn't want everyone to understand that she was a little afraid of him.

       "Better worry about yourself," Alan answered, gritting his teeth.

        "We'd better go. We may not be in time if we will be just standing here," said Lou, not answering to Alan's phrase.

       The dolls neatly reached the right door and went inside.

       When the platform began to lower, all the dolls froze. Everyone except Lou. Even Mandy's best friend, Moxy, didn't know what to do. Although the situation was hopeless, and Moxy couldn't have done anything anyway, she felt guilty. Just like Ox and Tara. Yet, Lou is the best at acting quickly in situations like this.

       The corridor didn't end in any way. All the dolls (except Alan, of course) felt Lou was very anxious.

       "Hey Lou! You don't have to worry! After all, the girls have always done an excellent job with all your errands! Plus, Mandy is very smart! I'm sure they'll be fine," Moxy said.
