Chapter 5 - 5

They woke up in a room with a comfy couch and a comfy bed, and a stunning view of the galaxy. A robot servant with the seal of The Great Water Bottle, GWB written in fancy gold letters, arrived with brimming hot chocolates.

"Their Exalted Excellency The Great Water Bottle does not like what you did. You will serve 3 months in this prison."

"Are you sure this is a pris-" asked Cyan, but she was stopped by Arin.

"This is nice, we should stay in this nice place."

"Good point."

The robot put down the tray with the hot chocolates on it and left.

"Why would they give us hot chocolate if we were in prison?" asked Cyan.

But they were soon to find out. Day after day they were given hot chocolate, and nothing else. Hot chocolate got boring fast. A week into being there, they decided they needed to escape.

"How will we do that? It isn't like we can just jump out the window into the galaxy, we don't have space suits here and the windows don't open!"

"Good point. We need to find what we have."

However, they didn't have much. All they had was hot chocolate, cups, a fridge, the bed and couch, a few robes, a table, a random box, and some pocket lint. When the robot came, they supposed they could ask it for information.

"Where are we?"

"The Middle Of Nowhere."

"And where is that?"

"Here."

"But where is here?"

"The Middle Of Nowhere. I already told you that. Please drink the hot chocolate."

"Can we get something other than hot chocolate?"

The ceiling opened up and a bunch of apples rained on both their heads. "There you go."

This was good! Now they had apples. But they just wouldn't stop raining. And the hot chocolate robot didn't come anymore. And they were red delicious apples, which sucked. And the noise was unbearable.

But maybe they could use this to their advantage. Now, in addition the the things they had, they had apples.

Maybe they couldn't do anything about the situation. Apples weren't that useful.

"I guess we'll be trapped here for the next few months." said Cyan, very bored.

"Well, we're stuck here. What can we do?" asked Arin, also very bored.

"Stare at the ceiling?"

"Sounds good to me."

And that they did. Until Cyan saw a hole! An escape hole, that had been there since they asked for apples. The ceiling had opened.

"Hey, Arin! Remember how the ceiling opened so the apples could get in here?"

"Yeah, why?"

"We can climb out through there!"
