"Wake up, Maya. Please, wake up." whispered Luke.
Maya slowly opened her eyes, and saw Luke's face with a bad scar on his cheek and a small one on his chin.
"Oh my God Luke are you okay?" said Maya surprised.
"Yes, yes I'm alright, my jaw just hurts a little tiny bit. Don't worry about it." he said.
"O.. Okay, where are we?" asked Maya getting on her knees.
"When I woke up they were talking about this place, it's a dungeon, some sort of prison, jail. They keep humans that tried to get further into the cave. For. Ever."
"What? No.. We can't.. We can't stay here forever!" she said panicking.
"Shh. We'll get out of here."
Maya moved her head to see two other figures sleeping.
"Oh them? They've been sleeping since we got here. I haven't talked to them."
"But why are you whispering?" asked Maya.
"Everybody's asleep. So are we." he said laying down on a mattres.
"But.. I.. I want to.. Know?" she fell asleep again.
-
When she woke up again, a tiny sparkle of light was peaking by a crack in the wall. She then saw the two other figures speaking to each other.
She turned her head and saw Luke waking up too.
"Luke, those two, they are alive, and speaking, in English!" whispered Maya.
"What? How do you know?" he said and yawned.
"I hear them. Duh." she said.
"Should we talk to them or just act like they don't exist?" he asked.
"I think we should talk to"
"Us?" asked the other person, a girl.
Luke and Maya looked at them slowly and carefully.
"You want to talk to us?" asked the other person, a boy.
"Umm.. Maybe." said Luke.
"Okay, say anything. But if you ask a question, we ask one too" said the guy. Both of them had a bossy and bored look on their face.
"Uh, we uh.. Wanted to know.. To know.. To know you!" said Maya.
"Oh. Easy. My name's Dylan. She's my sister, Zoe." said Dylan.
"Ok cool, are you guys family?" asked Luke but then realized they look very similar, have the same black clothing and both palid blonde hair.
"Yes, yes we are. Paxton. Dylan and Zoe Paxton." said Dylan.
"Now it's our turn." said Zoe. "Why are you here?"
"Um.. Long story short, we were looking for.."
"The Rock of Future. Interesting." said Dylan.
"Yeah.. exactly." Luke said.
"Now our turn. Why are you guys here?" asked Maya.
"We.." said Zoe.
"The same reason you're here." said Dylan.
"Oh."
-
"Yeah, we wanted to get the Rock of Future to help our planet, there was a meteor and.. we.." said Zoe.
"We couldn't save it." said Dylan.
"Oh wow, I'm so sorry to hear that." said Maya.
"Since that happened we've never been the same." said Zoe.
"That's sad, and I'm sorry to ask but.. What was your planet?" asked Luke.
"Earth." said Zoe.
Luke and Maya gave each other quick and weird looks, how possible.
"EARTH?" asked Luke.
"Yes, haven't you heard about it? It was green, had oceans, animals, and"
"We.. We know. We come from Earth. The Earth is not destroyed. At all." said Maya.
"WHAT?!" the twins said.
"No, that's impossible! They told us it was completely destroyed. That it was too late." said Dylan.
"But you didn't actually see it, right? They fooled you guys for a loooong time." said Luke.
"Speaking about time, how long have you guys been here?" asked Maya.
The twins looked at each other.
"Almost 4 years." said Zoe.
"4 YEARS? That is way to much!" said Luke.
"Too much? Look at those other people." said Dylan pointing to the other people in the cells "They've been here even more time than us. So imagine."
"Wow, but.. Why haven't you planned a way to get out of here.?" asked Maya.
"We where.. But when they told us Earth was destroyed, we lost hope. There was no reason to get out. So we did nothing." said Dylan.
"Well, Earth is not destroyed, and we still have to help. So we have to get out of here. The four of us." said Luke and Maya nodded and the twins shared a smile.
-
After 3 days of planning and not-very-good sleeping, they came up with the perfect plan.
-
9:32 a.m
"Hey Dylan, wake up." whispered Zoe.
"Huh? What.. escape?" he said waking up.
Maya and Luke were still sleeping.
"Do you think this is actually a good idea?" she asked.
"Of course! I mean.. Earth is still there, waiting for us. We don't belong here. Neither those other humans and aliens. We'll get out of here, so will they." he said "Now let's wake them up." pointing to Maya and Luke.
"Okay." she said.
They woke Maya and Luke up.
The guards gave them breakfast. Nothing much, crackers and water. And some cheese.
-
11:28 a.m
"Hey you! Man!" yelled Dylan at one of the guards.
"What?" said the guard walking towards him.
"Look at that thing." he said pointing to Maya who was convulsing. Faking it.
"There's something wrong with her. She's been like that since last night, she's freaking out!" said Luke.
"Oh fragool!" he said and opened the cell door.
"You gotta take her out, what if she eats us alive!?" said Luke and Dylan nodded.
The guard was on his knees watching Maya and grabbing her arms and feet.
"Bought it? Psycho." said Maya and punched the guard in the head with her head.
"UUUUUGGGHHHH!!" he said and fell in the ground. But he got up fast and grabbed Maya.
"NOW" she yelled and suddenly Zoe appeared out of nothing an kicked the guard on his face.
"SHIIIIT NO!" he screamed and fell on the ground again.
Dylan grabbed his gun and got out. They locked the guard in the cell and headed to the control center but other guards where already there.
"Oh wow, you go to the control center. We'll fight them." said Dylan.
Luke and Maya ran and slided between the guards feet. And got to the control center.
"Uh.. what should we do? There are too many buttons. And I don't understand them, they are in alienees." said Maya.
"I don't know, push everything." he said and pushed a green glowy button. then they heard and ouch.
"Thank you." yelled Zoe form the other side of the dungeon.
"Keep pushinng." said Luke and a bunch of different sounds echoed in the hole dungeon.
"Look at that one." Maya said pointing to the roof of the control center, a button that was safed in a glass cube.
"Yes! Uh.." said Luke and grabbed a metal stick and broke the glass.
"Hurry up you guys." yelled Dylan.
Maya pushed the button and a loud alarm and red lights went off. All the cells were open and people who got out helped fighting with the guards, but more guards were arriving.
Luke and Maya got out of the control center and Dylan and Zoe where already out of the fighting crowd.
"Let's get out of here." said Zoe and the four of them started running.
