BEFORE:
The beeping was what woke them up. It started out slow, beeping away. But then it started to go faster and faster until all seven pairs of eyes flew open as the beeping continued to speed up.
Penny was the first to sit up and rip the buttons and gadgets from her body. She blinked around the room, confused. Where was she? What was happening? She looked around the room, the others were awake, but they weren't moving. She pushed her legs over the edge of the bed, scanning the room. Everything was all white, the beds, the hospital gown she was wearing. Where was she? She couldn't remember what had happened. She stood up, and she yanked the needle out of her arm, no pain came from it, but she flinched anyway. She heard the others start to stir. She walked clumsily to the door, and she put her hands on the door, she didn't feel anything. She heard groans from behind her as she tried to push the door open.
"Someone come and help me open the door!" she yelled, feeling panicked. What was happening? Why couldn't she feel the door?
It suddenly opened, and two black clad figures stood there, black sunglasses covering their eyes. Penny backed up, eyes wide.
"Get back on your bed." One of them snapped. Penny backed up even further, but she ran into something. She froze, and she turned to see a boy standing there, brown hair, and narrowed blue eyes. He was in the same white hospital gown as she was. She moved out of the way as the black clad figures stepped into the room. "Get back,"one of them snapped, but the boy swung and he hit the clad figure in the face. They flew backwards, and Penny stumbled backwards. She ran into someone else, a girl this time, who shoved her out of the way as she kicked the other guard in the face. The door was suddenly flooded with more and more black clad figures. Penny dove herself behind a bed when a dart whizzed past their heads and into the room. The black clad figures kept trying to push them all back. Everyone was up now, fighting away the black clad figures. Suddenly someone grabbed her arm and pulled her to get feet.
"Come on," a boy with black hair and green eyes said, Penny stood up and grabbed his hand and he pulled her out of the room, as the others ran past them, all in white and shoving past all the black clad figures. They ran down halls, shoving through anything or anyone in their way. They finally made it to the door, but it wouldn't open. Everyone started to yell at each other, Penny couldn't hear anything they were saying. There were so many of them. Penny shoved past the boy with the blonde hair, and the twins with the red hair and the brown eyes. She pressed her hand against the door, she still felt nothing. She stepped back and looked up at the white door. Then she saw the panel. She walked over to it, and then she opened it up. The wires and the bright lights shown in her eyes. She yanked on some of the cords, but more beeping from above happened, making everyone louder. She turned around, and she yanked the laptop from the girl with the blonde hair, who swore at her, but she turned back around and she took on eof the cords, and she connected it into the laptop, she started to type things out until the door unlocked and it slid open. The talking ceased, and Penny grinned. The boy with the green eyes grabbed her hand and she was yanked from the door, she kept her arm tightly around the laptop while they ran.
They ended up in a crowded street, cars honked at them, and people yelled. They all of them, including Penny, stood together, looking up at the huge buildings. Penny caught sight of the tallest building. Stark Tower.
