The poison gate

Just as Kellen had suspected, Brent didn't wake up to his phone call. So, fully dressed, he headed down to the conference room on his own. AS he passed the A Class gym, he noticed that there were some people up and working out, and it was strange to see people behaving as if everything was normal, when Kellen knew he was going to walk into a firestorm once he was a floor down. 

When the doors opened on the conference room floor, Kellen was overwhelmed by the sounds of the people moving around and shouting. It was clear that the whole floor had been taken over by the employees, with tables set up along the hallways filled with coffee and tea cup stations. Kellen took a bold guess and assumed that the tables inside of the conference room had been filled up with either people or documents. Or both.
