AN: So this is it. The last chapter of Alone. I don't know if anyone is still reading this, but thanks for sticking it through! This is my favorite chapter out of all of them! I've seen a LOT of elevators, for reasons I'm not sharing, and can describe them well! Fun huh? Anyway, hope you enjoy the fifth and final instalment of Alone!

Dedicated to whoever stuck through my random updating!

Leo tucked his knees into his chest, and his face was place in between his arms. His body shook as he cried his eyes out. His normally curly hair was drooping in front of his eyes. He listened to the rain pounding outside his cabin. Activities were canceled until further notice by Chiron. Chiron was busy at the moment trying to figure out how it was raining in the camp. This left no other option other than ignoring his cabin mates and entering the Leo cave.

He couldn't believe that he could hear the rain from so far down in ground. Hearing the rain only made his mood worse. Leo was usually fine in tight spaces, but this was different. The inner cave was growing smaller the more he looked at the walls. The rain continued pounding and the room kept getting smaller.

Leo raced to the elevator trying in vain to get out of the cramped room. He was glad that no one shared a room in the cabin, talk about embarrassing! He jumped into the elevator at a speed not known to man. He hit the up arrow and the doors slowly shut. The doors inched shut and the pull upward began. That is until it came to a sudden stop halfway up the shaft. The light bulb blew above his head and he crouched down. This was not going to end well.

Leo went over to the front left corner of the elevator and took out a screwdriver from his magical belt. He unscrewed the nail holding open the wiring box. The final nail came out and Leo tossed the metal plate aside. Leo scanned the wires spotting nothing out-of-place. The wiring was exactly the way it was suppose to be. So why did the elevator stop?

Leo boosted onto the railing and reached for a loose ceiling tile. He was in luck; the first tile on the fifth row was loose enough to lift. He balanced his feet on the railing while he pushed the tile away from the elevator. It worked! He climbed out seeing that he was half way up. It wasn't short enough to jump too, so Leo looked in his tool belt for rope. Sadly, it still needed to recharge from the screwdriver.

"Great stuck in an elevator, again! This really should only be a onetime thing!" Leo complained. He wasn't a fan of elevators.

Twelve year old Leo was heading to the third floor office of his social worker Mr. Myers. He didn't understand why anyone would want an office three stories off the ground, but they did. Mr. Myers was your typical short manly social worker, who just wanted to connect with the kids, even if they didn't want to. Leo didn't like him in the least.

Leo entered the elevator alone. Turns out social workers don't fallow you around everywhere, but they did follow you when they had to. Obviously no one had to make sure he made it to the third floor alive, or else they would have sent someone.

The elevator walls were a dark shade of wood with metal railing following the whole car around. There was a keypad on the left side of the metal doors for secure floors that needed passwords to enter. On the right side there were the floor buttons. It ranged from the lobby floor to the fourteenth floor. There were grey tiles on both the ceiling and the floor. This was a fancy elevator.

Leo, being the extremely curious child he was, pressed every button on the panel at the same time. This caused the elevator to lose power between the first and second floor. The car shook as it paused in between the two floors. The lights darkened until Leo couldn't see a thing. Leo was stuck in an elevator car alone.

Leo's first thoughts were to panic. He knew no body would even miss him in any shape or form. Heck, none of them probably noticed he was late for his appointment! He was just another problem child that the needed to find a solution for. None of them really cared about what happened to him.

His second thought was sadness. He was never going to see his friends again. He would never get the chance to tell Sasha that she was the nicest person in the world. He would never get to punch David in the face for locking him in a closet. He would never get to pass that math quiz he studied for all week! He didn't even get a chance to make a bucket list for himself!

Leo sat down and stared at the boring tiles below him. He hugged his shoulders and tucked his knees in tight. He looked up to see a loose ceiling tile. One corner of the tile was missing and could be used to climb out of. Maybe he was close enough to the next floor! He hopped onto the railing and pushed the tile. It popped out of the elevator and made a passage way big enough for Leo to crawl out of. He was going to make it.

On top of the car he looked around at his surroundings. The elevator shaft was full of cobwebs and grey cement walls. There were cables coming out of each corner of the elevator, two ropes to each corner. He looked up to see the next floor. The metal doors were in reach of Leo's little arms. He formed a fist and started banging with all his might.

"Help! I'm stuck in this elevator shaft and can't get out! Somebody help me!" Leo shouted at the door. "Please?"

He heard a shout come from the other side of the doors. "We've called 911 to get you out! Are you the only one there?"

"Yes!"

"Ok." The voice said calmly. "They're on their way."

Fifteen year old Leo was still trapped in the elevator alone like he was three years ago. He was hoping someone had noticed the problem and was fixing it. He really wasn't up for elevator camping tonight. Plus he was pretty sure that elevators got cold after they lost power, not that it was a problem for him. Being the fire user he was he didn't notice temperatures grow cold often. His body heat would save him.

He felt a tug on the elevator car. "Leo!" Harley's voice sounded. "We've fixed the elevator! You're heading up!"

The elevator floated its way up to the top. The doors opened to show his cabin mates waiting for him. They all had their tools out and had grease on their faces. They'd saved him.

"You didn't think we'd leave you down there, did ya?"

Maybe he wasn't alone after all.
