I woke up to what sounded like church bells in the distance.
I climbed out of bed, careful not to hit my head again, and made my way over to the drawers.
I got dressed and went to try the door, it was locked.
Someone must have locked it while I was asleep.
Why? I mean we're over 1500 miles from my house. And even if I did get out of this maze, how would I get home? I don't have an inter-dimensional pocket Porsche.
After trying to force the door open, I wandered over to my bed and grabbed my phone. I turned it on, it was 9am on a Friday.
I unlocked it and checked my messages.
I had none. I decided to send Dylan a txt to see what was going on.
Message to: DYLANATOR
Why'd you lock me in my room asshole?
I pressed send and waited for a reply, it didn't take long.
Message from: DYLANATOR
Hey, you called it a cell, we're just giving you the full caged experience! Mistalya will come up and get you in 10 minutes.
Okay. So I have 10 minutes to kill. And I'm gonna have a lot more time to kill by the sounds of it.
Message to: DYLANATOR
Where did you put my martial art and gym stuff?
Message from: DYLANATOR
Ash has it. Why?

Sounds like I'm gonna have a lot of time locked in my bedroom. Might as well put it to good use.
I checked the time again, it had been 10 minutes. Mistalya would be up to let me out soon.
I waited for another minute or so, before hearing footsteps on the second staircase, I stood up and put my phone in the pocket of my jeans.
I was wearing black jeans, a camo t-shirt, leather jacket and white vans.
I don't remember packing, I assume Dylan packed some stuff for me.
I heard the deadbolt slide and the door creaked open.
Mistalya was there, in the same outfit as before but in reds and oranges.
She gestured for me to follow and led me down to the hall, we went left at the bottom of the stairs and then right. We ended up in some sort of dining hall, a long table dominated most of the room with 12 spaces. There were grand crystal chandeliers hanging around the room.
Ash and Dylan were already seated, the table was covered in food.
There were croissants, pan au chocolate, toast, cereals, juice, fruit salad, hash browns, bacon, sausages, beans, eggs.
Everything.
Mistalya went and sat next to Ash, I sat at the opposite end of the table. I grabbed a piece of toast and spread some butter and fruit jam onto it.
After I was done, I went straight back up to my room and ignored everyone.
They wanted to keep me locked up? I'd behave like I was locked up.
