Once the six of them finally made it past the traps, swinging blades, flying darts, and teddy bears, (don't ask) they came to the front door. on the door was a sign that said 'closed'. Maddie walked to the right of the door and pressed a green button.

A trap door opened, about four feet in width all around. Bud and Lou raced towards it, jumping through as if they were jumping onto a dog bed. Maddie looked at the others, shrugged, and stepped/ fell through the opening of the trap door. "I'm surprised she did that," Krysti said, "Maddie's afraid of falling." Ary nodded, then jumped into the trap door herself. Soon followed by Krysti, then Cole. After they were all through, the door closed.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAH!" Maddie screamed as she slid down the long winding slide that connected the tunnels of Arkham. She came to a sudden stop, and a sign dropped down reading: for harley for joker for other

Maddie pressed 'for harley' and was dropped outside of her bedroom door. "Huh." she said and went inside. Ary, however pressed 'for other', then 'friend', and last 'of harley' and dropped outside of Maddie's bedroom door. Just as she was about to knock, Krysti fell down next to her, having chosen the same thing.

"Well hello there!" Maddie burst from the door, making her friends jump. Maddie had just washed the remaining makeup from her face. "Wouldest thou like to come in?" Maddie asked, bowing. Giggling, her friends nodded, and went in.

Both Ary and Krysti gasped as soon as they walked in. The gasps turned into a jumping, squealing group hug. "I'll give you the grand tour. Those are your beds," Maddie pointed to each bed, showing which girl went to which bed. "That door over there, is the closests, " Maddie said, guiding her friends to the door and showing them inside. "And last but certainly not least,

Maddie extravagantly waltzed to the last door. "Is...The bathroom!" Maddie exclaimed and flung open the door, revealing three bubble baths, with scented candles and bath salts. The group hug, with less squealing, returned.

The trio ran to their individual bath stations, and each pulled across a privacy curtain. If someone had walked into the bathroom and looked at each privacy curtain, they would see what looked like three boxes, each black, with a white symbol: a paw print, a diamond, a leaf. As Maddie and Krysti struggled to take off their accessories and Spandex, Ary pulled off a Arkham prison jacket, jean booty shorts, and leafy tank top.

Each girl simultaneously sunk into their bubble baths and sighed.

Two hours later, three girls were snuggled up in their comforters and pajamas watching tv, which was being projected onto a screen that had come down with a press of a button. Turns out, the cases on the Iphones, Ipads, and laptops were the same as the privacy curtains. "Anyone want to explore?" Maddie asked over the sound of bugs bunny blowing up a house. Krysti finished the braid she was twisting out of her hair and nodded. Ary looked up from her bed and shrugged, "Why not?" Maddie leapt down, then back up. "Brrrrr, that floor is cold!" Maddie said rubbing her frozen feet. "Oh come on!" Ary said stepping on the floor.

She walked across the floor to the closet, and threw Maddie socks. Instead of Maddie catching them with her hands, the socks wrapped around her bun, which she had just put up. "Hey!" Maddie said with pretend them off her bun, Maddie pulled on the socks. Walking to the door, Maddie peered around the door frame and into the hallway. Seeing nobody, she went back inside her room and said, "Let's leave the TV on and leave decoys, so if anyone come looking for us, they won't find us." Closing the door softly, the trio ran to the closet and grabbed pillows, blankets, and a wig. "Why do we even have these?" Krysti asked, holding up her wig. "In case our heads get shaved by terrorists." Maddie said serious faced. The grim expression turned into a laugh. "I don't know!" Maddie said still snickering.

Once the trick was set, three girls crept into the hallway. They snuck along until, they walked under a air vent. Out of nowhere, Maddie shot into the air and grabbed the air vent, and pulled the grate off. Setting it on the ground, Maddie jumped again and grabbed the edge of the air duct. "Are you insane?!" Krysti whisper-yelled. "Yes." Maddie whisper-yelled back. Maddie heaved herself into the air vent, then turned around and poked her head back through the opening.

"Coming?" she whispered to her friends waiting below. Ary and Krysti looked at each other, as if saying, Why not?, and leapt up into the air vent. Once they were all safely in the air vent, Ary used a vine to secure the grate back in place. "Why are we in an air vent, when we live here!?" Ary whispered from behind Krysti.

"Because we don't know where henchmen might be lurking." Maddie whisper-replied. "Why are we whispering?" Krysti whisper-yelled. Maddie stopped crawling and turned around. "Do you know of any talking air vents?" she whispered. "Good point." Krysti noted, and waved Maddie to keep moving. Maddie turned back around and continued crawling.

Several minutes later, Maddie stopped again. She turned around and held a finger to her lips, and pointed at the grate below them. Her friends' gaze dropped to the grate, and seeped through to the room below. the room that they had stopped over, apparently, was some sort of basement.

But that wasn't why they stopped. Inside of the basement-like room, lurked a quite familiar face.
