As soon as the countdown started, every one of the youths turned their gazes towards Atticus, waiting for his orders.
"What now?" Aurora asked.
"Let's not waste any time. We're checking out the building," Atticus swiiftly declared.
He had no idea what was coming after 10 minutes, and he had no intention of being caught off guard. He wanted to be fully prepared for any and every scenario, and there was only one way to do that: get answers.
They all nodded in agreement and trailed behind Atticus as he started walking towards the building that had just formed.
The rest of the other youths hadn't moved from their initial position. The building was far too small to contain all of them, so they all stood outside, waiting for Atticus's next words.
On getting to the front of the building, the door suddenly parted and slid open without any prompts, revealing the pitch dark interior.
