I stared at the camera in disbelief. Thoughts were rushing through my head, mostly muddled and incoherent, but through it all one fact became quite obvious. As I struggled to think through what it all meant, I realized that I should probably get out of Jade's room. I started to turn to leave and my heart nearly jumped into my throat. The curtains were just slightly open and there, staring at me from outside the window, was the window washer I had seen earlier. I tried to conceal my shock and walked out of the room as casually as possible. As soon as I closed the door I rushed down the hall as fast as I could. I turned a corner towards the elevators and nearly ran over someone who had just come up.
"Woah! Slow down, buddy. Where's the fire?"
I looked up. It was Chris!
"Chris! Where have you been?"
"I've been busy," he said. "Come with me. There's someone I want you to meet."
I followed him into the elevator. What happened next went by so fast I didn't have time to react. The elevator stopped but didn't open, Chris pulled out an oxygen mask from somewhere and threw something onto the ground, the elevator filled with a yellowish gas and I started getting dizzy. I was getting tired of being knocked out all the time and fought to stay awake, but within a few seconds everything went black.
