"Hello" I say to a stranger in the elevator. "Hello" he says back to me. Where is he from? I've never heard that kind of accent. Odd. I mumble. "Where are you from?" I ask him. No answer. I decide to stop talking. Ding! theres the elevator doors opening. There is no one that needs to get in. "What floor are you going to?" I ask him "13th" he says. Is there actually a 13th floor? Ive never heard of one in this building. I wonder. I ponder for a while about what he means by a 13th floor. "Are you sure there is a 13th floor?" I ask. "its what I was told to go to" He says. "Told to go?" I say. "yea, I'm a new kid in town, as they say" He says. "Like you work here now?" I ask. "Yes" He says. Ding! Goes the elevator again. "6th floor" I say. Crack! "What was that!?" I yell. "The elevator stoped" the stranger said. "Wait the elevator stoped?!" I say. "yes." he says back to me."why are you being so calm, we're stuck a elevator?!" I yell. "Because, the elevator has a emergancy button" he says in a bit of a rude voice. "Oh" I say.

10 hours later.... Bang! Bang! Bang! "who's there?!" I yell through the door. "Emergancy Agency!" Yells someone at the other side of the elevator door. "Try to get this door open! Im starving!" I yell. Bang! "there goes the door" says a Emergancy Agent. They agents gesture for us to come out of the elevator.
