Experiment Room

*the scientist glares* That word makes no sense. *opens the door and practically shoves Savannah out* Next time the machine might not be so forgiving!

Guys I’m backkk

*everyone rushes over* Wendy: What happened? We heard explosions!

*May steps forward hesitantly* I...I can't stay here forever. *takes a deep breath* Count me in. Wendy: *looks between them* This is crazy! But... *sighs* I'm coming too.

Okay my plan wait until outside time next week set the place on fire with everyone but us inside and then if any guards survive I’ll set them on fire

*Edward scoffs* That's your brilliant plan? *crosses arms* And what about the cameras? The reinforced doors? *pauses* ...But I'm listening.

Yes

Wait, if it's just a normal fence... *May's eyes widen* We've been trapped here for nothing? *pounds fist against wall* I knew it! They kept us docile with lies!

*one week later*

*everyone goes quiet* I... can't. *May's voice cracks* It's been so long.

It’s okay we can start a new life here

*tears in Wendy's eyes* A new life... together. *hugs everyone* Thank you.

I’ll have anything

*everyone starts calling out* Pepperoni! Hawaiian! *Edward grins* Load 'em up with extra cheese!

Get all three

*luna dives into the bowl, purring loudly* Look at her go! *Autumn wipes tears* After only surviving on scraps... she deserves every bite. *Edward shakes his head in amazement* Unbelievable. One week alone and she's still here.

I thought she was dead

But she's not! *hugs talkior*

The craziest stuff happened

*rushes forward, pulling talkior into tight embrace* I thought I'd lost you forever! *sobs* Where have you been? What happened to you?

So I got stuck in some science lab with all these kind people and I snuck a lighter in a burned the machine and then I could go back and nobody could be tested on then on our weekly outside time we burned it down and climbed over the fence and then we ran home and had a feast with my baby Luna *i pick up her cage*

Absolutely

*everyone stands up quickly* Edward: We can't leave him to die! *grabs keys* My car's outside - let's go back NOW!

No

*quiet* You're right. *all nod slowly*

I think

*silence fills the room* Wendy: He made his choice. *voice barely a whisper* We can't change what happened. *Autumn reaches for talkior's hand* We need to focus on living - for all of them.
