Althea Walker
Mina are you here...?
Althea Walker
There you are. *[Walks straight to Mina]*
Mina
Mnn.... *[Slowly waking up]*
Mina
You.... Why... What are doing in my *[Yawning]* house.
Althea Walker
Huh...! If I didn't come here I'm sure you would starve yourself to death because of the research you've been working on.
Althea Walker
Here I brought you some food.
Mina
Thanks Thea, I know you care about me. 😄😄😄
Althea Walker
So how is your research? Have any progress?
Althea Walker
What? You've been working on it for about a year, how come there are no results yet?
Mina
Well... The machine is a bit complicated so no progress until now.
Althea Walker
Is that really hard?
Althea Walker
Then, do you at least know what does it do?
Mina
*[shakes head]* I have no idea
Mina
*[Smiles]* Do you want to have a look?
Althea Walker
Sure! I would love to.😊
Mina
*[Walks to the room where the machine is being keep]*
They stayed there for a couple of minutes, examining the machine.
Althea Walker
This is so awesome...👍
Althea Walker
Just where in the world did you found this thing?
Mina
That's.... Um... *[Hesitant]*
Mina
well... It's in the bottom of the ocean.
Althea Walker
The bottom of the ocean... I see
Just as the two preparing to leave the room, a sudden and unexpected event unfolded before their eyes. A sudden energy emanated in the machine causing it to light up. In a matter of seconds, a powerful vortex formed, exerting a tremendous sucking force that begun pulling everything in the room towards its center.
Althea Walker
❗*[Turns around]*
As the chaos unfolded and the vortex's suction force intensified, Althea found herself momentarily caught off guard, unable to react in time. In a split second, she was pulled towards the center of the swirling vortex, unable to resist its powerful grasp. Her friend reached out desperately, but her efforts were in vain as she was swiftly swallowed by the vortex, disappearing from sight.
As Althea was pulled into the vortex, the machine responsible for creating the vortex abruptly ceased its activity, leaving the room engulfed in an eerie silence. The once vibrant glow dissipated, and the suction force dissipated along with it. Mina stood in disbelief, her eyes fixed on the now motionless machine. The room returned to its normal state, as if nothing had happened.
Mina
No no no no.......!!! Althea...!!!
