3 Chapter 2 - Seven Veritas
In an unknown world under ten suns, three people came forward.
On a side of the field, the charismatic blonde said: "Good morning, my name is Laurence, this is my first time here in this world, like everyone here, but if you'll follow me you'll find the answers to your questions." So, many went to him.
"Wait! He knows nothing! But with my help, you'll benefit! This world is cruel and as you see, you can easily die. I'm Frederick" An imposing black-haired man told.
The two young men were the ones who questioned the angel at the same time. Like this, they resumed their newborn rivalry.
Lastly, the charming green eyes spoke. "Sisters, good morning. I'm Adeline like the angel said. I'm going to form a group only for women. If you don't know what to do, we can help each other because we're women, I'm your option."
In that instant most of the people went to these characters.

"Angel, what are you doing?" Sarah asked him, near her was Kassandra too.
"I'm looking at them and what they are doing. You? Why are you here? Didn't you go to that Adeline?"
"Uh... I went there but... They wanted to know everything, who I am, what I did, my parents and more. And they asked something strange... Nothing, don't mind it too much. And you? Why are you not with them?"
"Well. We too, couldn't be accepted in their groups. You see, they didn't even reply to our questions. They said it wasn't worth." Near Angel, Darien and Jun just nodded silently.
"There are so many who couldn't enter their party. And others didn't even care. What will we do, Sarah?"
"Uh... Kassa... Kassi why not forming a party with them? it'll be fun!!"
"But we don't know each other."
"No problem, they don't look like bad guys who're going assault the first girl they'll found. And... Uh, nothing" *I know you also wanted too*
"But first... we need to ask them."
"And why? Who can refuse two beautiful girls like us!"
"If you want to form a party there aren't any problems for me" Angel looking at the two guys and nodded to confirm his answer. "But why we are forming a party in the first place?"
"How could we protect ourselves in this unknown world?"
"Well, isn't a bad idea to form a party, we can help each other at least. And seeing them doing it, there must be a reason." He said loudly. *We don't know this world, and seeing their approach, probably neither they do* Angel looked at the three leaders. *But they know something we don't*
The discussion continued for a bit, but in the end, a party was born.
{At that moment we didn't understand, but now I'm angry and I will be forever with them, for what they did. They left off so many guys from their groups and all five of us.}

in the evening the party explored the tower, the only building nearby. The interior was composed of a complex network of stairs, rooms and hallways. From the intern, it looked much bigger than the external structure, enough to housing thousands of people.
Every circular floor had an open middle that allows seeing the top ceiling, a magnificent representation of Earth's sky. Based on this world daylights, the Sun and Moon are taking turns to reign on this little sky.
The ground floor had one single great hall, in the middle of it, there's an enormous fountain. On it, a marble statue of an angel keeping a stance, with two pairs of open wings, golden armor and a golden sword, pointed at the sky in a proud pose. At its feet many little angels were arranged, to form his personal guards. On the open middle of every floor, many little trumpeters angels were mounted on marble supports at the edge of the enclosures. These angels with their golden instruments, gush out water in the fountain from all floors and neither a drop splash out or on the central sculpture.

"Guys, guys look this..." Bang!!! She closed the door in front of us, from where she had entered. Just an instant after that, she approached us from the back. "Buh!!!"
"How you did it?!" Jun asked astonished. "You were there a second ago, in front of us!" He said, going to give a look to the room, searching if it was connected to the other room. But disappointed, he found nothing.
"Look! If you go into this room it can exchange with this one and the other way around." Sarah explained her foundings.
Looking around they found every floor was symmetrical. A floor has two concentric circles sections apartments with two circular lanes, the internal one allows you to see the top ceiling. Four main hallways divide these two circular sections in four-part per circle, so there are eight subsections per floor. Small hallways split every subsection into four blocks, forming a total of thirty-two blocks per floor. All the blocks have different dimensions but each one is symmetrical from all directions, the same from the opposite sections or adjacent or from the same block.
Every block has four, eight or sixteen doors, so every subsection has thirty-two, every section sixty-four, every two sections one hundred twenty-eight, every floor two hundred fifty-six.
Every floor have Seven angels with seven marble inscriptions on.
~Number 4~
God created light. God will take you on the right path.
~Number 8~
A new day. A new life. A new beginning. A new man will born again
~Number 16~
Follow God. Receive its love. Bath in its love.
~Number 32~
Look for glory. Aim for glory. God will give you glory.
~Number 64~
Don't worry. Trust in yourself and the angels. Angels are trust.
~Number 128~
Blessed ones prepare for success and growth.
~Number 256~
Trust God to overcome any obstacles. There is a Divine reason behind all.
*I hate these statues, I hate these written* thought Angel looking at them.
"Angel what are you doing? What are you reading?"
"Well... Sarah nothing important really, some ill omen, let's go, what did you find?"
"Uh, did you see this door, I was playi... Examining its nature and I found out they don't change with doors from other blocks." Said that she went to try them as a new toy. "See..."

"Kassi, Kassi, come here!" A second later it could be seen Sarah bringing along Kassandra to the near stairs. "Why this doesn't work!!!" And immediately after they went to try another stairs. "Look! Look! This one it's moving!!" As she said it, the stairs really moved "And it is even like an escalator, see, see!"
The girls went up and down as much they wanted on the moving stairs like a certain world. Meanwhile, the guys were choosing the apartment.
"What do you think about this?" Jun
"It's not bad, but I prefer this one, it has all the necessities for our party."
He said as he pointed at a black and golden door. It has a main hall, some toilets, two sections of washing rooms, a cooking and dining room, and last but not less important, a small empty warehouse, that stocked itself with food for five, some weapons and other things.
*We chose one big apartment with two adjacent simple rooms, one for the boys and one for the girls. This way it's more convenient and easier to help, to know each other, to create a bond*
After dinner all went to sleep thinking about what will await them.
