Chapter 24: Survival Ga [1]
Level 17: Bio-genetics Level
The Elevator
Suddenly a loud siren went off, gaining everyone’s attention. They all froze in bewildernt, their looks turned to horror, Ten’s head turned to the red light spinning around. ’I should have known’. He thought with horror looks.
"THIS IS A TRAP!" Ten shouts.
Instantly the elevator shakes trendously, a dividing door cos from the top, separating them. Ten, Kaneki, Rin, Asano, Daiki and Haya at one end. Shino, Ren, Sumi, Kana, Mirai, and Yumi.
"MIRAI!" Kaneki shouts banging on the iron wall that separated them.
"I should have seen this coming," Ten said with trembling eyes.
"What do we do now?" Asano asked, frightened to the core.
"We are in this ss just because soone doesn’t know what a cara is!" Ten yelled , facing Daiki.
"Daiki is sorry, Daiki didn’t know it was a cara," he said, panicking.
"Well it looked quite obvious but you were too dumb to figure it out!"
"Stop it Ten, you can’t bla him" Rin cut in.
"Who else is to bla?" Ten hissed.
"I should have seen this earlier, I calculated our every move, but yet I couldn’t see it, I couldn’t see it was a trap or worse". Ten’s heart skipped a bit.
"Where will the elevator stop now?" Haya asked.
"I don’t know! This elevator is no longer in my control" Ten said shakily.
"Dammit" Kaneki hissed slamming his fist against the wall.
"We are dood," Daiki said with horror looks and trembling eyes.
"Great this is a trap, the smart ass couldn’t think of this earlier" Sumi scoffs.
"It wasn’t Ten’s fault," Shino said with a stern look, his eyes fixed on the iron wall that separated them from the others.
"Then it’s the dumb guy’s fault" Sumi snaps. Shino faced her.
"Rather than bla each other, shouldn’t we think of a way out of this".
Sumi’s eyes averts to his back.
"It was your idea of an escape, am sure you will be better enough to figure out a way out of here".
Shino turned to her, she froze when she saw him trembling, a frightened look in his eyes.
"Yes I was the one who brought in an escape plan and now our life’s in danger because of ".
"Mirai-chan, I’m scared," Yumi said in tears, holding onto Mirai’s shirt tightly. Mirai’s eyes trembled, watching her.
Shino looks sad seeing the action.
"RIN!" Ren shouts for his sister but the thickness of the wall can’t allow his voice to get through even if he wanted.
"I should have looked when that guy said sothing about a water sensor but I didn’t think," Kana said with clenched teeth. Ren faced him.
"What’s gonna happen to us now?"
"I don’t know," Kana said, shaking his head negatively.
*Ding Sound*

*Sudden Stop*
_
*Increase in Heartbeat*
Their hearts slamd loudly in their chests, beads of sweat against their features, their minds filled with all sorts of thoughts, confusion, fear, the anticipation of their current predicant.
’Why did the moving elevator stop?’ These were the major questions in their heads like a raging storm.
"Mirai-chan look!" Takai Yumi exclaid pointing at the panel that showed the levels, her crystal blue eyes fixed on the number.
"We are at the top," Shino said, confused seeing the number showing ’Level 1’. ’Did Ten plans work?’ He thought with trembling eyes, gulping hard.
The elevator made a ding sound, making the kid’s quiver more.
"It can’t be," Sumi said with widening eyes as the elevator door slowly opened. They waited in anticipation of what was to co, bright lights ca through, they blocked it with their hands, their eyes adjusting to the light.
Sumi was the first to step forward, her curiosity overtook her, her dark pink eyes studied the path opened to them, others eyes widened too, gazing upon the newfound environnt.
"It’s-".
"The outside world" Shino finished for her, gazing upon the abandoned city of Tokyo, Japan.
Ten was left stunned as the elevator iron doors opened all of a sudden showing them abandon Tokyo. It was an unbelievable sight to behold.
"My plan worked?!"
"We...we...we are outside but-" Kaneki stamrs in confusion.
Others gulp hard at the scene before them.
"Where is everybody?"
Ten slowly steps forward, others were frozen to the core as he did. Ten held the edge of the elevator, the cool breeze found him, his ssy dark hair dancing with the wind along with his clothes. He breathed the air deeply, it was fresh and clear. He adjusted his glasses.
"But I don’t understand," Haya said with trembling eyes.
"I don’t see anyone, it looks abandoned, and it’s almost as if no one has stayed here in years".
The whole city looked like a ghost town, not a single soul. From their view trees were covering most of the skyscraper buildings, cars abandoned and worn out, the air wild and chilly.
"The Pri Minister said it has been 2 years since the black storm," Rin said, stepping forward, her blue eyes laced with seriousness.
"Are you saying all that crap the Pri Minister said was true?" Kaneki hissed in defiance, not wanting to believe.
"If the black storm happened then-" Asano said as her eyes grew teary.
"Then we are orphans" she adds in horror.
"No no don’t say that, Daiki don’t wanna hear it," Daiki said, the tears dropping profusely as he covered his ears.
"Sothing is odd".
Their attention drifted to Ten, his glasses shined blank white.
"As much as I disagree with the Pri Minister, I can’t help but say this... it wasn’t just the Chemical Plant that exploded, it was alongside a virus," Ten said, his glasses back to normal.
"Now’s not the ti to play smart, smart ass," Kaneki grumbled folding his arms.
"What point are you getting at Ten?" Rin asked curiously, her blue eyes fixed on him.
"The point of saying
