Movie Time

Maria and Harry wakes up. They feel a sharp pain in their heads. They both stand up.

Maria:"What happened?"

Harry:"Damn...My head hurts."

Suddenly the speaker turns on and a voice speaks.

Speaker:"Welcome. This is a little sudden but I hope you dont mind the rushed scene."

Harry:"Rushed scene?"

They looked around but the entire room was empty. Just a door on the other side of the room. Both of them couldnt understand what was going on.

Maria:"Where are we?!"

Speaker:"Dont you recognise this place? The same one as your brother Chris was in."

Maria:"The same?! So he's here?!"

Speaker:"Well not quite. This was a bit rushed so your just in a warehouse but at least your on tv."

Meanwhile with Chris and Emily.

They were both walking for a few minutes before they found the staircase that lead to the upper floor of the maze. When they got to the top they were surprised to see Dr.Mason waiting for them at the top. Chris pulled out his gun but didnt aim at Dr.Mason.

Chris:"What do you want now?"

Dr.Mason:"Did you forget I said I had a surprise for you?"

Chris:"What is it?"

Dr.Mason:"Follow me and you'll find out. You might hate it or you might love it. Who knows."

Dr.Mason starts walking and Chris and Emily follows. They arrived at a door which Dr.Mason opens. They all walk inside and Chris was surprised to see a theater screen."

Chris:"Is the surprise watching a movie?"

Emily:"Yay! I wonder what movie it is?!"

Dr.Mason:"Its not just any movie. Its one I think you'll recognize."

Chris:"I didnt come here to watch a movie. We're leaving."

Emily:"But can I watch? I want to see the movie."

Chris:"Tsk. Fine i'll wait outside."

Chris started to walk away when the tv turned on and he heared a familiar voice. He turns around to see both his siblings Maria and Harry on the screen.

Dr.Mason:"Are you interested now?"

Dr.Mason was expecting Chris to get angry but was suprised to see he was smiling.

Chris:"Nevermind. You peaked my interest now."

Chris sat down next to Emily and Dr.Mason.

Chris:"Do you have any popcorn?"

Dr.Mason:"Er...Yes. A worker here will bring some soon."

A butler walked in and brought everyone some water and some popcorn. Dr.Mason was surprised to see Chris just eating it and smiling.

Dr.Mason:"Err...Do you-"

Chris:"Shhh. The movie's starting."

Dr.Mason sighs

Dr.Mason:(I'll ask him later.)

On the screen Maria and Harry stands up they start looking around. Harry starts walking to the door when he felt a sharp pain in his leg. He looks down to see he stepped in a trap that shot a metal spike at his leg.

Harry:"What the fuck?!"

He screams and falls to the ground but he activates another trap. It send a saw that slices of his hand.

Harry:"FUCK!!"

Out of sheer pain he crawls to the wall which is next to the door. When he made it to the wall suddenly two saw blades falls from above and slices both his arms off. He screams and suddenly he see's an iron maiden came out.

Harry:"Oh fuck me!"

He forced himself up to get out of the way but he wasnt fast enough and the iron maiden moved towards him and locked him inside. Killing him immediately.

Speaker:"Well...That was...unexpected."

Maria was staring at the iron maiden in shock.

Speaker:"Who would've thought he was so stupid he activated all the traps in the room. I suppose you can go now."

Maria was scared. She slowly walked towards the door. As soon as she opened and walked inside she saw at the end of the room a cake with boxes all around it however it was very far away as this room was quite large.

Speaker:"This room is very simple. Your final objective is run."

The door locks behind her and metal spikes appears above her. She barely makes it passed the spikes and ran towards the cake. She kept running and running and she made it to the cake but as soon as she made it she read on top of the cake was written with cream. It said:

The Cake Is A Lie.

The ground below her opens and she falls onto wooden spikes. She gets stabbed and dies.

Chris:"Thats it?! Come on man. I thought you guys would've been better then that."

Emily:"Im surprised you look quite happy. They are your family right?"

Chris:"Who cares. Im fairly satisfied with the prize. Though my favourite part was when Harry activated all the traps.

While laughing Chris added.

Chris:"I suppose the only thing he kept till the end was his constant screaming and cursing."

Dr.Mason:"Your really not upset?"

Chris:"Why would I? To me this is the best thing you've done for me."

Chris gave Dr.Mason a hug.

Chris:"Thank you Dr.Mason. I am forever in your debt."

Dr.Mason:(This kid needs help.)

Chris:"So is that all?"

Dr.Mason:"Uh yes. You can head back now."

Chris takes Emily's hand and walks out. The two of them finally heads out of the maze.

Dr.Mason gets a call. He answers and it was Joker.

Dr.Mason:"Ah yes, Joker. What do you need?"

Joker:"How did he react to his siblings death?"

Dr.Mason:"Ah yes, About that."

One explanation later.

Joker:"Thats unfortunate. Here I was hoping for him to be angry over their deaths. He's so ungrateful. The lengths we went through to find and kidnap his siblings and he isnt angry."

Dr.Mason:"I suppose his family is out of question then. My idea is to let things play out for a while."

Joker:"Very well."

The call ends.

Chris and Emily walk for a few minutes when they finally reached the exit. They walk through and the Speaker comes on.

Speaker:"Congratulations. You finished your search."

Chris:"Technically I didnt finish it as I didnt find what I needed."

Speaker:"You still havent realised it yet have you Chris? The thing you were looking for is standing right next to you."

Chris was surprised. He turns to the side and stares at Emily before smiling.

Chris pats Emily's head

Chris:"At least you got me a good one."

He holds her hand and they walk toward the Safe Zone. It didnt take long for them to arrive however Chris was surprised to see the doors have changed. It appears they cut a large hole in the door but no one was looking through. Chris tells Emily to be quiet and they slowly reached the door and Chris looks through the hole. He see's the kids talking like normal. He looks around to see Jack surprisingly for the first time sitting alone and he saw Meghan and Crystal talking with one another. When he saw Meghan he remembered what she did and he got a little angry but he wasnt as angry as before. Now he's able to focus. He holds Emily's hand once again and opened the door.

When they walked inside everyone was silent. They were silent in shock but two were silent in fear and he could tell who one of them were immediately.

Chris with a smile on his face says

Chris:"Meghan. Im back."

Before he reached her Jack quickly ran toward him.

Jack:"Chris! Your alive! Thank god. Are you-"

Chris pushed him to the side.

Chris:"I'll deal with you later. I have something I need to take care of."

He walked upto Meghan and Crystal.

Chris:"How have you two been for the days i've been gone?"

Crystal:"G-good. We thought you died because of how long you were gone."

Chris:"Ah yes. I wouldnt have taken so long if SOMEONE didnt try to kill me by pushing me off a ledge."

Everyone was silent.

Jack:"Chris what are you talking about?"

Chris kept his eyes locked with Meghans and still kept smiling.

Chris:"Do you want me to embarrass yourself further or are you going to come clean?"

Meghan:"I didnt do anything! It wasnt my fault-"

Chris shoots her in the leg. She screamed in pain and He still didnt get rid of his sinister smile.

Chris:"I dont like liars you know. It'll be best for you to come clean."

Meghan:"Ok ok... I did it."

Chris:"What did you do Meghan?"

Meghan was silent for a few seconds before responding.

Meghan:"I-I pushed you off the ledge."

Everyone was talking among themselves and Chris's smile widened.

Chris:"See. That wasnt so bad now was it."

Chris grabbed her face and slammed it into the ground before kicking her in the stomach.

Chris:"Meghan. You've been a naughty little girl. Now what do you think will happen now?"

Meghan was silent and Jack stepped in.

Jack:"Chris. I dont know what happened but this isnt right."

Chris:"Dont worry Jack. This bitch is lucky she caught me on a good day."

Chris turned back to Meghan.

Chris:"I'll give you one of two options. Die immediately by my gun or be tortured but you will live."

Meghan was silent.

Chris:"You should be happy by my choices. The reason im letting you off easy is because thanks to you I met Emily and I got to watch an amazing movie. So im actually very grateful for you pushing me off that ledge."

Chris:"And because im so grateful I'll give you a quick death.

Chris pulls out his gun and shoots her in the head killing her instantly. Chris stands up and asks someone to throw the body out. He grabs Emily's hand and walks her to a table where they ate and chat.

Crystal:"I havent seen him smile at all before and now he's back smiling in the most creepiest and most normal way imaginable."

Jack:"If he's happy then thats ok but he was acting insane."

Crystal:"Its best if we avoid him."

Jack:"Before that."

Jack walked upto Chris.

Jack:"Chris sorry to bother you again but I need to ask you something."

Chris sighs.

Chris:"Ask away."

Jack:"Have you seen Abraham and Sarah? They still havent returned yet so I was wondering if you ran into them at some point."

Chris remembers the two people he killed and the photo's he took. He was thinking of giving it to him but he didnt do so because Dr.Mason said it would be important later on.

Chris:"Never seen them."

Jack:"I see. Thanks anyway."

Emily:"Arent they the two people you killed and took the photo?"

Chris:"How did you know that?"

Emily:"I heard them screaming their names out."

Chris:"Ah I see."

Emily:"Why didnt you tell him the truth?"

Chris:"Im letting him live in his illusion that their safe and alive. Sooner or later reality will hit the poor idiot."

Emily:"He seems so nice and yet your being so mean to him."

Chris started to laugh.

Chris:"He may be older then you but he's more childish then you think. All I can see is a child that was raised by nice parents who told him everything can be solved by being nice and working hard and working together. He himself has shown multiple times to moves to hopeful illusions that people are fine and that we are fine. He plays a hero he's too weak to be but because no one has taken him down a peg in his illusions he still stays with them. Sooner or later these dreams will be his downfall."

Emily:"A simple 'he's an idiot' would've sufficied."

They both start laughing.
