To what you got Day 15 part 2

"Hi. Nice to meet you." Ross says with his head down to his chest, sweat beading on his brow.

"Pleasures mine. Good to meet you how are you?" Daniel quips back to him, short of breath.

"I'm good, I'm good, just left Phil in accounting, he says hi." Ross coughs out.

"Why is the guy in accounting always named Phil?" Daniel asks.

"Are the two of you finally done?!" Jim, standing behind Daniel.

"No...wait, one more. Phil?! Phil Connors?!! Its me Ned! Ned Ryerson! Needle nose Ned, Ned the Head, come on buddy!" Daniel shakes Ross's hand just slightly.

"Don't, don't don't make me laugh oh God." Ross quivers as his belly laugh is held back causing everyone in the line behind him that's linked to him to shake a little bit on the board.

And I can't be holding on day 15 part 1

A horn resounds inside the tube, and everyone awakes clutching their ears.

"OH MY GOD WHAT IS THAT?!" Liz screams out. "Shut it OFF!"

"Everyone awake? Good. Time to begin Day 15, lets get you out of that tube." A blast of air burst through the tube from the back and blows at them all, as soon as Cipher finishes his sentence. The debris scatters across the floor and the darkness opens up in front of Daniel about 3 feet away from his face. The light washes in on them and burns their eyes, like vampires cursing the day light.

"Are you kidding me? We were that close?!" Daniel begins the final crawl out of the tube and falls out on to the floor of the room. "I think we went all around the room?" he staggers to his feet, cramped and reaches down to the opening to assist Liz and the others in getting out and up.

But then you make me crawl day 14 part 2

"Okay, I'll be the first to say it. This day sucks." Ross crawls along on his hands and knees through the tube.

"You're not the first to say it!" Anne punches him in the butt.

"Ohhhh you probably don't want to do that. I have a very sensitive...ummm, just yeah, don't do that."

"Oh God. Why am I behind you; let me get past you." Anne squeezes along side him and gets in front of him. 

"Thank you Jesus." Ross mumbles. 

"Really glad I'm in front of you now huh?" Anne chuckles

"Yes. Yes I am." He smiles.

"You realize he's starring at your ass." Liz shouts out from two spaces up. 

"Are you starring at my butt?!" she looks over her shoulder and shouts at Ross.

"It’s right in my face, where the heck is I supposed to look?!" he shouts back.

"Can we please stop shouting in the metal tube?" Jim interrupts from behind Ross.

You ask me to enter day 14 part 1

The door cracks open and light from the main room enters their room, Daniel stands up cramped and sore, he barely slept and not due to the uncomfortableness of the hard floor, he couldn't shake the feeling of dread of going through the next 86 days without his friends. In the two weeks they had spent with each other they had grown close. Being in a near death experience with someone draws you together and creates a bond like no other. Its like experiencing a birth with someone, because what you're really doing is not nearly dying but realizing you have a second chance at life. To do that once with someone is a moment that becomes something spectacular, to do it over and over again, every day for 13 days is something that no one will ever be able to explain.

Now those people whom he bonded with in such an intimate and extremist way were gone, there were a few with him in the room and the idea crossed his mind for a moment that he'd make new friends, but as soon as he did the wave of guilt, and death and sorrow washed over him. Daniel was going to give it his all to make it through these 100 days and show Cipher he was wrong, that there was no lesson learned there was just the day after 100 and he would move on with the rest of his life. He and the rest of the room gingerly exited the room and looked around to see whom else was there, the room was empty. The buzzing sound of the lights the humming of the air vents was all that there was.
