World Academy W - Meanwhile

As Liam and Mattew walk in an already familiar scenery, a new black corridor appears before their eyes.

"Ah, it's no use. We are never going to get out of here" Liam says putting his hands on his knees. Mattew ponders and observes the dark hallways. He looks around, deep in thought. He checks the doors, the walls and all the other visible elements. Liam observes him confused.

"Care to explain what you are doing?" the slouched teen says.

"Aha!" Mattew yells with his finger in the air. He then starts mumbling numbers really fast not giving a further explanation.

Liam blinks confused. "I got it!" Mattew yells and puts his hand over his shoulder.

"Got what?"

"Liam...have you ever seen the movie Cube?" Mattew says excited.

"Umm... maybe. Can you jar my memory" he replies.

"In the movie, people are put into a place with many cubic rooms. They need to figure out which one of them are safe by during mathematical equations" Mattew replies smiling.

"So?"

"So look...The number of this classroom is 523, these lockers start with the number 31, and someone wrote A+C on that wall" the smiling student say pointing to the clues. His friend is still confused.

"Don't you see? 5+2-3=4, 3+1=4; A is the first letter of the alphabet and C is the third. Do you understand what this means?" Mathew says grabbing his friends forearms. Not getting an answer, he delivers it himself. "The answer is 4?"

"Oh" Liam adds not convinced.

Excited Mattew starts counting the dark passages. "1, 2, 3 and 4! This is the one that will lead us out of here" the North American student says with conviction and jumps in.

Seeing this, Liam quickly follows. "Hey, wait!" he says loudly.

Next scene: The two boys emerge on the other side. Mattew comes out first accompanied by a white windy mist. After a few steps, the winds subsides, leaving him to shiver like a leaf. "Boy, it sure was cold in there, ay?" he says and turns to his friend only to flinch surprised to see heavy smoke engulfing his friend. When it finally clears, Liam is not only shivering, but has sever sunburns on his face and arms. His hair is full of dust which would not be so bad if the top of his head was not on fire. The poor boy starts screaming and running from left to right.

"Sorry" Mattew says embarrassed. "Perhaps I miscalculated" he adds as the other boy runs off screen screaming.

Next scene: A group of seven boys has a discussion in the dim light. "So are you in?" Lukas asks lethargic.

The others think hard with their hands folded.

"Sounds like a fine idea to me" Andersen starts.

"It does seem important" Govert adds.

Emil and Berwald hum in confirmation.

"In that case we should get going" Lukas adds.

"Wait...You mean walk around the school, just like that?! This place is like a labyrinth that gets more and more complicated with every step!" Anderson declares.

Lukas tilts his head. "I suppose that's true."

"And we can't go anywhere without Tino. It's not the Nordic club without him" Berwald says serious.

"I can act as his substitute?" Eduard says shy. Berwald scans him from head to toe and looks away with a grunt. Eduard is shook to the core.

"Your right about this not being a Nordic club. We need a new name for our group" Govert says to which Berwald makes a face.

"Would you change your mind if we call ourselves the Ikea club?" Lukas continues. To everyone's surprise, the big broody student nods.

"Great, now we only need a plan how to quickly and safely travel through the hallways" Lukas says.

The group ponders.

Anderson has an idea. "I know, let's use school furniture to make a fast vehicle" he says excited. The others look at each other with a mild smile of interest.

"Alright then. If everyone agrees..." Govert declares raising his finger to the ceiling. "Ikea club...ASSEMBLE!

Next scene: We see a group of students moving sluggishly through a hallway. Hearing a noise, they turn only to see a Viking ship made of dismembered desks and cabinets, fully equipped with wheels and ores. The 7 students are inside as it moves fast, propelled by the ores and the smooth floors. Besides their heavy makeshift shields and swords, they also have makeshift recognisable helmets. They stop seeing the confused group.

"Fellow classmates" Lukas stands up and says. "Fear not for we are here to spread the message from the school staff. Don't fight each other and don't lose hope. Help will come. That is all."

With these words, the figure with the Viking helmet sits down as the other boys push the ground with the ores, making the wheels of the boat roll again.

As they disappear with great speed, the face of Dalila Kali Kikwete jumps on screen terrified as we see that her hair is on fire.
