I float in anticipation, waiting for Bronwyn to come back. This is very boring. Bronwyn said she'd be right back. She promised. I sneeze into my arm six times, and float up to the ceiling, the long, slack rope now going taut. A bird flies over to the window that's level to me and pecks at the glass. "Hello, little birdie," I say, floating over to it, and tap the glass where it's hovering. When I get closer to it, I notice it has blue feathers, and dark black legs. "I'll call you Adeline," I say sweetly. "Is that alright?" Adeline flies around in circles in reply. I giggle. What a silly bird. The bird taps the glass with it's beak, furiously, as if it's trying to tell me something. "What is it, Adeline?" I start to hear a faint buzzing, and turn to see a few bees fly into the room. They zip right towards me, and I cry out as they sting me all over. The bird taps the glass wildly. It's warning me, I realize, and that's when I see the biggest swarm of bees I've ever seen streaming down the hallway, coming my way.

I spin back around, and begin working furiously at the latches of the window. The first latch unlocks, and I move on to the next. Adeline pecks at the glass. Bees swarm in around me, and I scream. "Adeline! Help!" I yell, and the last latch unclasps. I push the window open with all my strength, and begin to float out, but jerk to a stop. I look down. I'm still tied to the rope! I reach down and try to unbind myself, but it's too tight. I scream louder, as sharp pains erupt around me, bees attacking me from everywhere. What's happening?! Where did these bees come from?!

I'm floating there, sure this is how I'll die, when I feel a scratching sensation on my waist. I steal a quick glimpse down through the swarm of bees, and see- Adeline! She's ripping viciously at the rope, trying to set me free. All of a sudden the rope snaps, and I rise out of the cloud of bees. Adeline flaps her wings next to me as I push myself out the window, floating into the breezy autumn air.
