Meetup
“So that was all for the orientation for the trip, class dismissed.” Mr. Smith announced, Everybody started leaving  
“Hey Anne and Emma wait up” shouted Luke “Shawn get over here We need to talk.” 
“Yes,” said Anne and Emma together “What happened?”
“This place we are going to, do you know anything about it?” asked Shawn
“No, but we have to make a plan to make the trip fun.” said Emma “Let’s meet up at Luke’s house.”
So all of them gathered at the school gate and started to walk to Luke’s house, On their way they talked about the trip
“We need something to save us from boredom on the bus ride,” said Anne “Maybe music and some games will be good.”
“But what if Mr. Smith takes our phones away?” said Shawn
“He won't, we will hide it,” said Anne
So they continued walking and they reached Luke's house but when they reached no one was home so Luke went to get the spare key from the garden. After they got inside they planned and thought of ideas for the trip.
“We have to explore the hotel and area after we get there,” said Emma
“Nice idea, We also need snacks,” said Luke “Let’s divide work on who will bring what.”
“Yes,” said everyone
“I can bring the crisps,” said Anne “Like Cheetos and lays”
“Yeah, and I'll bring some chocolate,” said Emma
“I will bring ramen and food which will keep us full for a long time,” said Luke
“I will bring gum and small things to keep us busy,” said Shawn “We also need money”
So they discussed and discussed till it became night and they went to their houses to pack.








Trip Day
In the morning everyone met up at the school to go to the bus Luke and Shawn were late.
“Oh come on guys even today, didn’t you set your alarms?” asked Emma
“Sorry,” said Luke and Shawn feeling embarrassed
“Hurry up, hurry up we are getting late,” said Mr. Smith
So everyone boarded the bus and got to their seats, Shawn, Luke, Emma, and Anne got their seats near each other.
So the bus continued on the road everybody did their own thing, Emma was listening to music with Anne, and Luke and Shawn were playing games. After a long ride, they finally reached. It was a chilly autumn night when the four friends found themselves in a remote town which was surrounded by misty mountains. Then they got taken to their hotel which was an eerie old hotel named “Ravenwood Manor”. The group thought the hotel was creepy. The friends gazed upon the structure with its dark windows reflecting the moonlight. There was a lot of excitement in the air as everyone checked into their rooms. The floorboards creaked and the place had a weird aura. Many rooms were locked and the hotel was very cold which added to the mystique of the place.
Luke and Shawn got in a room together whereas Emma and Anne got in a room together. They were lucky that they got rooms next to each other. So setting up everything it was 2:00 am and almost everyone in the hotel was asleep so the group feeling mischievous decided to explore the hotel.
“We have to keep quiet so no one wakes up or we are in trouble big time,” said Luke
“That's true, the stairs are creepy so let's take the lift,” said Emma
“Yeah, Stick together this place gives me the creeps,” said Anne
They walked across the dimly lit hallways until they stumbled upon an old-looking lift so they entered.
“Woah guys look there is an option for Floor 7,” said Luke
“Even though there are only 6 floors, I counted when we got here”
“Let’s go and look what it is about,” said Shawn
Intrigued, they exchanged nervous glances but curiosity got the better of them. So they pressed the button, the lift lurched into motion, and they felt a strange chill in the air as they ascended from the 5th floor.
















Floor 7
As the elevator doors opened, the friends stepped out into a corridor that was cloaked in an unnatural darkness. The air was icy and the only sound was the distant sound of the wind.
They cautiously vented forth, their footsteps echoed.
Suddenly, their heart faint whispers and the sound of whispers behind them.
“What is that?” said Emma sounding scared
“Was that you Anne?” said Luke
“No” 
“Where is Shawn?”
“WHERE IS SHAWN GUYS”
Shawn was not there, they could not see properly because of the darkness.
“WHAT DO WE DO, WHAT DO WE DO?” said Emma frantically
“Guys what happened?” said Shawn
“What, where were you?” said Anne angrily
“What do you mean I was with you all,” said Shawn
“No you were not,” said Luke
“Yes I was, what do you mean?” said Shawn
“What is the last thing you remember?” asked Emma
“Oh, there were like some sounds of footsteps and whispers,” said Shawn “What do you mean that just happened like 20 seconds ago.”
“No, That did not happen 20 seconds ago……”
Fear crept into their hearts whereas Shawn was clueless.
“We should get back,” said Emma 
So they all rushed to the elevator but it was not there anymore, Everyone went quiet.












Uncovering the darkness
As they explored further, they stumbled upon a forgotten ballroom with old curtains and cobweb-covered chandeliers, in the dim moonlight filtering through the windows.
They realised they had stumbled upon a remnant of the hotel’s past. Right then there was a thud and another thud then they were jumpscared and all of them got wiped out. They woke up on the floor and they started running. The lift was back there again so they entered and went to their floor.
Complete silence, no one was there, the group thought it was still night so they gathered up in Luke’s and Shawn's room to discuss.
“What was that” said Anne sounding creeped
“I don’t know but it was something paranormal,” said Luke
“I knew we should not have gone to that floor,” said Emma “It doesn't even exist how did we even reach there!”
“Hey guys why is Shawn not speaking,” asked Anne
“He is probably tired,” said Luke
“Luke, Anne I have to talk to you both about something,” said Emma
So Emma, Anne, and Luke huddled up
“Something is wrong with Shawn he has not been acting like himself,” said Emma “After we heard the creepy footsteps and whispers he just vanished, and when he came back he didn’t even remember what happened he just said he was with us whole time even though he was not”
“If that is true I have an idea,” said Luke
“What is it” asked Anne
“Let’s ask Shawn something that only he and I would know,” said Luke “ I’ll ask him something only I and him would know, and if he does not answer we run”
“Great idea,” said Emma “but what if he doesn't know the answer what do we do”
“If it is the real Shawn then he would know that we are staying at this place for the next few days but if he is not Shawn then he would just think that we are leaving tomorrow to go to another place and think we are just packing because of that,” said Luke 
“I also have a plan I’ll tell you but let’s pack our bags first,” said Anne
They started packing their bags and getting their stuff ready whereas Shawn was still just sitting and staring. They got all of their belongings out of the room and Shawn still had not asked anything.
“Hey Shawn, Do you remember that time we were in Nevada and you fell down the stairs in my sister's house?” asked Luke
“Yeah, that was embarrassing” answered Shawn 
“Do you remember that time when you came to my apartment to play but instead my cat scratched you?” asked Luke
“Yeah I do that hurt and I won’t come near your cat again,” said Shawn
“I don’t have a sister nor a cat and I don’t like in an apartment and we never went to Nevada,” said Luke in an eerie way
Luke sprinted out of the room and locked the room.
“He is not Shawn,” said Luke panting “That is not the real Shawn he agreed to my fake memories”
“LET’S RUN!” shouted Anne
They all sprinted towards the stairs and started running down the stairs with their bags. Right then they heard a ding.
“No need to run,” said the entity creepily smiling
The entity acting like Shawn had used the elevator So they started running up the stairs because the main door was locked. They ran and ran until they reached the second-floor corridor, This was the floor which Mr.Smith was staying in.
So they started running towards his room which was at the end of the corridor.
“Guys we have to run faster or he will catch us,” said Luke hurriedly
“Why is this corridor so long,” said Emma while running
That was true the corridor was not ending even though they ran for almost 10 minutes it never ended. Right then they saw the entity gliding towards them, The entity looked like a ghost or a very paranormal thing.
“Elevator, There is an elevator, Get inside fast” shouted Luke
There was another elevator so all of them got in but they noticed something.
“WHY IS THERE ONLY A OPTION FOR FLOOR 7” screamed Luke
“Just press it we have no other option,” said Anne sounding scared




















Revisit
They had again reached floor 7. The floor looked inverted and the entrance was from the other side, The dim lights started flickering and they entered a room with chandeliers and old curtains.
That’s when they saw a doll carefully placed on the table, the doll looked like an old one, a very old one.
“What is that” asked Emma
“That looks like something that came out of a horror movie,” said Anne
“Look at a window opening, We can get out from there,” said Luke “Use me as support, You two get up first then You two can help me”
“Okay,” said Emma
There was a thud then another
“G-guys?” said a voice
“Who is it?” said Luke
“S-shawn” answered the voice
“Tell me something only you and I would know”
“You and I stole Mr.Smith’s board magnets last week”
“Yes, Shawn what happened where were you?” said Luke feeling relieved
“I don’t know after we all passed out there was a creepy doll chasing me and I ran for a long time until I reached here where I heard someone,” explained Shawn
“We gotta get out of here,” said Luke
“Where are the others?” asked Shawn
“They are over there trying to get out of the window, There is an exit,” said Luke “A lot of things happened I’ll explain later”
So they went and everyone was relieved seeing Shawn was back. They all managed to climb out of the window and it led them to a Circle K store. They entered but there was no one there, It was almost like everyone disappeared. No one could be seen, No one heard them scream and run in the hotel.
“Could it be that everyone disappeared?” asked Anne
“Guys I think I have an idea, Let’s stack up on supplies first,” said Luke
“But we can’t steal,” said Emma
“Just do what I say It will make sense,” said Luke
Parallel
They all got supplies and sat down
“Look have you noticed it almost is inverted” said Luke “Like the 7th Floor or the corridor or even the entrance to the hotel”
“Oh yeah,” said Anne
“This all started happening when we hear those footsteps and whispers and the next thing we all wake up and Shawn is gone,” said Luke “Don’t you think it matches up, It's like a parallel world kind of thing”
“That could be true but how do we get back then” asked Shawn
“We have to go back to the floor 7 and relive the same scenario,” said Luke
After the plan had been explained they all went inside the hotel by breaking the front door window because the front door was locked. They went to their floor using the staircase and after that, they went to the same elevator which first took them to Floor 7 then pressed on the destination then they ascended.

Could It be a Wormhole?
“I read about a theory, It was about wormholes that connect Parallel Universes,” said Luke “We could be experiencing the same just without the effects experienced.”
They heard a ding, They had reached.
“The thing that I don’t understand is how wormholes could be connected to just some mere paranormal encounters and footsteps,” said Luke
As the group walked forth again they heard the same noise
thud thud thud
They started running and then all of them blacked out. They woke up again but this time in the normal room.
“I think it worked,” said Anne
“Yes, Finally we are out of that nightmare,” said Emma
“Not yet we still have to get to the elevator that we came from,” said Shawn
“Yes,” said Luke “I remember that way follow me”
They approached the elevator where it had all started.






















Changes
After entering the elevator they pressed the button for floor 7.
“What were those last few days,” said Emma
There was silence in the elevator, They reached their floor and went to their rooms. All of them were tired so no one talked. They just went to their rooms and slept. The next morning they woke up and saw only 1 day had gone by even though they were stuck for like 5 days.
“How is this even possible? We were gone for 5 days now has only 1 day gone by and how come no one noticed we were gone?” said Luke
“Wait I'll ask someone did they saw us at dinner,” said Shawn
It turned out they were there even though they were stuck for days. 
“Could It be that there were clones of us?” said Anne
“It could be true after all that has happened to us,” said Emma
“We should just forget that this ever happened to us,” said Anne
“That’s a good idea,” said Shawn
So their trip went normally. They had fun and enjoyed the trip but when they were checking out of the hotel they went to the same elevator to go down then they saw that the option for floor 7 was not there. They were relieved and they went home after the trip.
After 22 days another school showed up. Some kids had the same idea as Luke, Shawn, Emma, and Anne but when they went to the elevator there was an option for floor 7. They went in.
