Wendy focuses on the floor numbers descending in what feels like the longest lift trip ever. Suddenly the lift stops and the numbers disappear. "What happened!?" Shouts Wendy looking at Peter who starts pressing the open door button rapidly. "We've stopped..." he responds surprisingly calmly. "What no no not now!" Panics Wendy. "Can you call someone?"
Peter looks at Wendy holding herself and panicking and responds "no because the whip phone connects to the security desk and guess what?"
"That's only you isn't it?" She asks
"Yep... the next shift doesn't start for a few hours too."
"Great... so what now?" Wendy says as she slumps on the mirrors still coving herself.
"Well if you don't want to wait the only way would he to use the emergency exit and climb up to the closest floor" Wendy looks at Peter in disbelief knowing what he'll say next. "So if you want out girl, you'll have to climb"
"Why can't you do it?" Wendy says in hope.
"See that hatch above you? Well for one you wouldn't be strong enough to boost me and two if I boost you wouldn't be able to lift me over" Peter remarks giving Wendy only two options wait naked for hours or climb out now.
"Fine, get me out of here!l she says angrily.
"Don't forget this is your fault, don't get angry with me" he bites back as he positions himself below the hatch. "Alright get on top"
Wendy hesitates knowing she have to uncover herself. "Hurry up" shoots Peter. Wendy lets her arms go, giving Peter a full look at her body, she holds back tears as she gets boosted by Peter. At the hatch she pushes the release and climbs up. "Take the ladder to the next floor, they'll be a release switch. Use it to open the door and then find a phone to call the fire department." He shouts from the lift.
Wendy starts her climb, the lift shaft is cold and windy, giving her chills and hardening her nipples. On reaching the top she hits the release button for floor 27, it slowly opens the door. She pulls her naked body though the door crawling herself on the floor. Huffing and puffing she bringing herself to her feet. The lights are off, she can barley see anything. Feeling herself along the wall she makes out a workstation pod and feels herself along the desk to find the phone. Picking it up she finds it's dead...
Of course no power, and these phones need power to operate. I better get back to let Peter know.
Back at the lift shaft, Wendy holds only the wall and shouts "Peter! All the power is out the phones aren't working!"
"Ok, then you'll need to walk down to the ground floor and use the emergency phone down there or alternately check the main switch in the basement, it might have tripped and just needs resetting!" Peter shouts back. "Okay, I'm on it! Shouts Wendy.
Wendy follows the wall to the emergency stairs. Not coving herself she walks herself down, her bare feet are cold against the concrete steps. As she descends she contemplates escape, it's the perfect opportunity. Peter will be okay, the next shift will look after him she concludes. She reaches the car park floor and enters it, seeing it is extremely dark but has a rough idea where her car is she slowly makes he way in that direction. Thump! "Ouch" squeals Wendy as she walks into her car with her leg. Following the car's outline she makes it to the keypad entry drivers' side. Punching in the code the car opens and light shines out. She jumps inside with haste, letting out a sigh of relief. "I'm free!" She shouts as she closes the door.
It's nighttime so driving naked home won't be too much of a risk, she'll turn the light off inside after leaving the car park. Starting the engine the beams come on lighting up the car park, she carefully drives to the exit. Taking her access card from the passenger seat she leans over through the window to swipe it, but nothing happens. She tires again and nothing. Getting frantic she keeps swiping.
Why isn't it working? She screams internally then realises it needs power! Hitting her hand on the steering wheel, and placing her head on top sobbing at her failed escape attempt. Eventually she pulls her head up, knowing she has to follow one of the options Peter laid out if she wants to get out of here.
If she resets the power she could just get back to her car and escape. But she could make the situation worse. Otherwise, calling the fire department from the front desk would get her and Peter out but means more people will see her naked...
