And Together We Shall Stand

Finally, we stopped in front of a second set of doors, only these were easily noticeable and made of metal. Beside it was a keypad, and the woman leaned over and typed in a long code on the buttons. I tried to follow her fingers at first, but she was moving much too fast and at times pressing several buttons at once. The doors finally slid open, although very slowly.

I thought I would see something truly amazing, but instead I saw the inside of an elevator. Once all three of us were inside, I noticed that each of the elevator buttons were labeled with what seemed like a random letter. The business lady pushed one directly in the center of all of the buttons; one labeled with the letter M.

The elevator didn't move, yet she stood there expectantly. After about ten seconds, she turned and pushed through both of us to face the opposite wall. After the nerd and I glanced at each other, more confused than ever, the wall in front of her promptly opened.

And that was when I was wowed.
