Chapter 9
"Are you okay with that?" I snapped my head around to the source of the voice. It was Spider. We were standing right back where we had started. The nine of us, gathered around the 4 and 5 doors.
I felt like I remembered this moment...But no, I'd never been in a scenario this bizarre before. "I want to go through the number 5 door," I said. The words had just tumbled out of my mouth. Why did I care which door I went through?
"Okay, does anyone else want to go through this door?" Spider asked, looking at the crowd.
"I want to go through the 5 door as well," Year replied.
"That makes a digital root of 9," I said. "We need to get to 5."
"What if Bronze and I went with you?" Duo suggested. "That would make 5."
2+3+4+5=14
1+4=5
1+6+7+8+9=31
3+1=4
"That would work for both groups!" I exclaimed.
"We should go first," Bronze said. "Make sure that it's safe for a child and two older adults."
"Now, I may be old, but I'm not THAT old," Won said jokingly. I smiled. With his corny joke, he put me slightly at ease.
Our group of four walked over to the RED. One by one, we scanned our hands on the scanner. First Duo, then Year, then Bronze, then me. Looking at them, I waited to see if they were ready. Counting down in my head from 3, I pulled the lever. The door swung open, and into the darkness we hopped.
A loud beeping sounded from our bracelets. I looked down at mine. There was a transparent red skull on it. 90 seconds until it blew up and killed me. We had to find the DEAD.
"Over here!" Year yelled. I turned towards the source of his voice. That was easy. Running towards him, I got my hand ready. As soon as I got there, I smacked my palm onto the DEAD. The next hand scanned was Bronze, followed by Duo. Year yanked down the lever, and the breathing ceased.
"Glad that's over," I said panting, trying to catch my breath.
"What's it look like?" Win yelled from outside. I took in my surroundings. We were in a very nice suite. There was a king sized bed, with a bathroom off to the left. A TV was in front.
"It's very nice," I yelled back. "We found the DEAD."
"You guys should be good," Duo said.
"Going through now," Spider yelled back. I heard the slam of a door, and with that, they were off.
"How do we get out of here?" Bronze asked.
"Probably like how we got out of our cabins," I said. I got to searching to find a way out of this room.
