The World in a Room Have you ever thought about the world being in one small room and all the billions of people in one room, in one big room. What if that were true; is it? "Lexi! Kaylee! Come on, we don't have all day! Lexi?" "Boo!" "Ahhhh!" Lexi Turner always did different things and one of those things was to scare people until they were crying. Lexi's nickname was Lex Luther from Superman and that is where it all began. It was Black Friday and Lexi and her best friend Kaylee along with Lexi's sister Kayla were going shopping. When they got into the car, Lexi started to hear a noise outside and it was getting louder and louder. When they got to the corner of Blueberry and Dering, they saw a building that looked unfamiliar. "Kayla, stop!" "Why?" "Just stop, please?" "Be back in ten," Kayla warned. "Thanks!" Lexi got out of the car and stepped into the building, and there had to be a billion people in there. Lexi fell to the ground and suddenly a million people were surrounding her trying to help. "Miss? You okay?" one of them said. "Hello?" another asked "I think she fainted. Lets help her." Lexi then woke up. "Um, could you tell were I am?" Everyone burst into laughter then finally a woman answered Lexi. "You're on Earth!" "Yes I know that, but what is this building?" "I told you, it's the world," the woman said to her. Lexi glanced around and saw the people in the room, "Maybe that woman wasn't joking. Maybe she was telling the truth," Lexi thought to herself. "Am I crazy? This isn't real." Lexi looked for the door but it was nowhere to be found. "Where is the door?" Lexi asked a boy who helped her. "Disappeared, I guess," he answered. "What do you mean by that?" The boy laughed. "You must be new, I'm Max." A silent pause came between the two. "Lexi," Lexi replied, and Max just nodded. Max had long, brown hair, blue eyes and purple shorts with a matching t-shirt. "So can you tell me what this place is and how I get out? I have to go in... I had to go five minutes ago." Lexi said worried. "You're on Earth and you're like, stuck," Max said. Lexi was in shock. "So the whole world is in this room?" she asked. "Pretty much." Max explained. He seemed kind of nervous. "Well thanks Max, for your help, it was really nice of you," Lexi said. "Ya sure, so um I guess I will see you later." Then I walked away and Lexi went to where she had entered, and all she saw was walls. Then she saw a girl that she actually knew. The girl had blond curly hair and was in a purple dress with sparkles with a matching headband. Lexi got closer and then she knew that it had to be Tess? Tess is her cousin, when she went to say Hi. Tess he saw her and embraced her. "Lexi! What are you doing here? Where is Kayla? Are you alright?" "I'm fine, how do I get out of here?" "It's dangerous here, come on." Lexi followed now and was scared, Tess was smart and Lexi was glad she found her. "Wait, wouldn't you like love this place? I mean it's like a club." Lexi said. "Lexi, come on! I will just tell you later." Then Lexi stopped. "Lexi? Come on!" But she just stood there and didn't say a word. "Lexi! I'm not kidding you have to come now! Please? This is a dangerous place and I don't want you to get hurt." "How? How could I possibly get hurt?" "If you come then I will tell you." That made Lexi go. "Well, come on!" Lexi yelled, Tess smiled and then followed her but, then she turned so Lexi did too. "What, What is this?" Lexi asked, "The rooms, and this is yours." "No! I'm not sleeping alone Tess! Can't we sleep in the same room?." "Lexi come on you're acting like you're six and for your sake I'll sleep here, for one night only though." Lexi was already in the room and suddenly looked surprised.. "Uh, Tess? Why are there people in our room?" "Have you been listening to anyone here? The world is here!" "Ya I got that, but I thought that we would share with like one person, not like one hundred!” "Don't worry." Tess said. Lexi felt like she was being stared at but she didn't know by who. She started to worry about Kayla and what was going on with her. But then she realized what she was holding. It was her phone. She checked her messages and every single one was from Kayla. She dialed Kayla. "Hello?" Kayla said. "Kayla!" "Lexi! Where are you? Why haven't you answered my calls?" "Funny story," "I don't have time for jokes just tell me where you are and I will be right there." "No you do not want to be where I am, I'm trapped, me and Tess are," "Wait, Tess? You mean our cousin Tess?" "Ya I don't know any other Tess," "What is she doing with you?" "I was walking and then I saw her and she has been helping me." "Get her on the phone," "Okay." Tess must have heard this because she came as fast as a whale who was getting plankton. Tess took the phone, went into the bathroom and shut the door. Were they planning something about me?, Lexi wondered. Was this all a trick? Is this really real? She stood there wondering, "maybe I'm just crazy now!" Then it struck her like a lightning bolt: there has to be a way to get out of here. She didn't want Tess to know that she was up to something and she kew that Tess was smart. Tess always knew what was going on. As she ran down the steps she realized that something was not right. So she took a few steps and then heard her name. She followed the noise and suddenly.... "Ahhhhhhhhhh!" The room went blank and she saw nothing except for the man who was carrying her and then she thought about what Tess said, to not leave her because this place is dangerous. But she thought that it would be cool if everyone could escape and she would be the one who helped them. She realized that this was going to happen unless she got out of there. "So what do we do with the kid?" One of the men who grabbed her said. "Well, we can't let anyone know about her." "True, but people will start wondering if we're not out a lot." "But we have a kid in a sack we can't just leave her here to be." "Well that's all I got Maxy, what else are we supposed to?" "She's a nice kid and don't call me Maxy! It's Max." Max? Was this the same Max from before? "You know her?" "Ya I met her a while ago, she was clueless." "What's her name then?" "Lexa or Alexa or ah, I don't know." She felt like coming out and saying "it's Lexi!". Then she could just run and go tell Tess that she was right and Kayla what happened and once and for all LEAVE! "Ha, you don't even remember the girls name, what a joke!" Suddenly she felt for Max; at least he stood up for her. He did kidnap her, but he also helped her too. "It's Lexi", Max finally said. "Oh now you remember!" "Ya I did, why? "Just be useful and go get me a soda." Lexi could not believe what was going on, and Max couldn't stand up for himself and he just went and got that guy a soda. After Max left, the other guy picked me up. "All right Lexi, lets go somewhere else." Now she was plain old scared and after what he did to Max, She thought she would never be able to escape. Now she really wanted Kayla and Tess. Kaylee probably would never speak to her again. "Hello!" The man set her down and went to go talk to someone. He was probably nice to everyone, and Max most likely had a reason to be working for this creep. Everyone seemed to like Max and the man but why? The man is just some person with no life so he makes a living kidnapping children and being a fake. Max is just some kid who has nothing to do so he just is a kid who helps kidnap kids. She finally realized that no one was around and it was the perfect time to escape. Then she could tell everyone about the man. Lexi peeked out and there had to be at least one hundred people so she slowly got up and then the man came back. She got back into the bag and the man picked her up again. "Help! Help! He's kidnapped me and now he's leaving!" she yelled as loud as she could. He dropped the bag with Lexi inside and then he started running as fast as he could. "Get him!" Everyone started running and then Kayla, Tess, and Kaylee came running over. "Lexi!" Kayla yelled. "Never do that again." Tess said scared. "Even though we don't get to go to the mall, I'm still glad you're okay." "Thanks" I replied to Kaylee. "How could you go near Max and Nathan? Lexi, they're dangerous." How would you know Tess? Have you ever gone near them?" "No and they're the ones in charge and they're the ones who hide the door and make it reappear." "But I talked to Max and he seemed that he like had no choice but to work for Nathan." "They're brothers. Max is just like Nathan." "So, it was all a trick?" Tess nodded. "So how do we get out of here?" "Max is the only one who knows besides Nathan and Max would never let me know, unless..." "What? Oh no, not after he kidnapped me." "Do you want to get out or not?" "Fine but after, you owe me big time." "Deal." Tess said happily. They found Max near the entry. Lexi approached him. "Hey Max." she said quietly. He looked back. "Um, hi." He knew that Lexi knew who he really was. "Anything new?", Lexi asked "No. Hey did you hear what happened?" "You mean how you kidnapped me, and knew that it was me? Also how you and brother keeping everyone prisoners in here? Then, your brother gets exposed by me and then you get exposed too. Ya I heard." I explained. "Alright, you found out. If you want money, I got money." "I don't want your money, I want out." "What do you mean?" "You know what I mean, I want to get out of here forever, and not just me, everyone." "Who do you mean by everyone? "Tess and everyone else." "You and Tess know each other? How?", Max asked "How do you know Tess? How do you know which Tess I'm talking about?" "Tess Turner - she always looking out for others, even you I guess?" "Well to let you know, Tess is my cousin and I will bring her here." Lexi declared. "Tess Turner? The two of you are related? Congratulations, I guess?" "Okay I'll be right back." She walked away and then she saw Tess and ran to her. "He wants you!" "Max?" "Yes! Come on!" Tess came with me and then we went to Max. "Hello Max." Lexi said, trying to be friendly. "Tess, Lexi.". "Max." Tess responded "So Nathan's gone, now what are you going to do Tess?" "What do you think? You just have as much power as Nathan." "So? You don't know where all of the power is." "Lexi does." "What? No I don't!" "Well does she?" Tess asked. "Ya she's been in it before but she was asleep." "Then would I have heard you and Nathan fight? How would I have heard you mistake my name for Lexa?" "Okay you heard all of that, but did you get an image of the place?" "Yes, it is a dump in there!" Tess, Kayla, and Kaylee were laughing. "Lexi just proved you wrong Max!" Tess said. "If she really saw then what color were the walls?" "A blood red color with black stuff on the walls." Max stood there and didn't say anything or move. Lexi looked at Tess and she looked back at Lexi. Then, both looked at Max. He didn't move anything and finally he looked at everyone. Max stared at Lexi - it was like a staring contest and went on for a while. "What?" Max finally said. "Oh don't be so clueless Max, we know you're an actor. We know that was a trick." Tess said. "Well Lexi didn't, did you Lexi?" "Um, I don't know." "Lexi!" Tess yelled. "What?" Lexi asked. Max laughed. Then, Lexi waved Tess over and they went to the other side of the room. "Tess! When are we going to start the plan?" she asked. "What plan?" "To get out!" "Now. I'll distract him and you go to the lab." "Go Tess, now, or else he will suspect." Then they went to their places. As Lexi approached the door, she was alone and then she went in. The door was open and the room looked the the same as it was before. The room smelled like smoked salmon and it was freezing. As Lexi walked through the room, she heard noises and saw a large number of posters, in Spanish, Italian, and some Chinese. As she walked and admired at all of the stuff and then she saw another door, right in the corner opposite of the door and it had several locks on it. She tried to open one, it didn't work and then she tried another one and it didn't even move. She didn't know what to do. She stood there in deep thought, and then she remembered. The keys that Nathan put in the desk were probably still there. She scurried to the black wooden desk in the middle of the room. Lexi rummaged through the desk and found the keys. She grabbed the keys and tried the first lock with a key and then the door opened. She ran into the closet and it was like an evil scientists lab. It had a screen and it at least showed everyone who was here. It also had, all these buttons that controlled everything. Lexi looked for the door control button, but there were so many buttons that it was like impossible to find the right one. Then on the screen Lexi saw Max, Tess, Kayla, and Kaylee all standing and Tess was still stalling Max and then she herd Max, asking for Lexi. Lexi had to find the button that released the door and all she saw was; Camera Area 1, Camera Area 2, and then Voice Commands and she clicked on it to see what it did. "Welcome! Nathan or Max. If you are Nathan then click on the four. If you are Max then click on the five." Lexi clicked on the four then it started talking again. "Welcome! Again, Nathan. Please say a command." "Door control." "Searching. Searching. Searching. Searching. Searching. Two matches found." Then it opened the two files. "Is this what you are looking for? Door Opener or Door Closer?" "Door Opener." At this point Lexi just wanted to get out of the room and Nathan and Max's lab. Then, the door opener button started to flash and Lexi clicked on it and then the place she entered showed up on the screen and then a model of the door showed up on the screen, Lexi dragged it the the place she had entered. "Door Opener activated." The voice said. Lexi quickly ran down stairs and saw the door. She tried to open it and then "Woshhhhh." The door opened. Lexi was the first one out and then people started to notice the sunlight and they followed Lexi outside. Everyone seemed to be be joyful except for Max. Lexi went over to Max. "So, what are you going to do now?" Lexi asked. "Something. I don't know what though." "Why are we in my town?" Lexi asked Max. "Your town was the last place we stopped so we end up here unless Nathan or I use the voice commands to go somewhere else." Lexi really had no interest in talking to Max any longer so she just left Max to be. Lexi ran to Kayla's car and looked for everyone. Tess was still talking to Max and then Tess noticed that Lexi had gone to Kayla's car. "Lexi! I'm am so proud of you! Look at all of these happy people! You did this." Then Kayla and Kaylee found them. "Now lets go." Kayla said already getting in the car. The four got into the car and left. They never forgot there experience, never.
