Backdoors: The Survival Guide
Chapter 19: Fifth Floor

Entering the door I could see a dark black room in front of me, this reminded me a little of the same room that drew me into this room. It's just that this room didn't pull myself in forcibly to enter again, and if it's noticed further this room is really-dark, the only light source is the back door that's still open. But even that light cannot illuminate this room.

But finding this black room can we get out of this world? No one knows, we need to try for ourselves whether this room leads us to the exit or to the other floor.

When everyone entered this room, the door behind suddenly closed violently. And our boooms all seemed to lose all our senses in this place, even I could not feel the presence of the others behind me.

No, rather it's all completely gone. I don't know what because but when I tried to retreat and reach out everywhere even calling out to anyone in a loud voice, everything seemed to disappear swallowed up in this void.

I don't want to worry a little about the others, but I really don't know where they are. Whether everything is transferred to another place or these things really affect our senses completely.

Alright, I keep trying to find another for some even though the results are futile. This is basic human nature, although they know what will happen in the future they still do it even if it harms themselves. There are too many examples of this, the simplest of which is probably the smoker, no matter all the dangers that are warned either in any form but still many people still do it.

I tried to turn on the flashlight, but somehow my flashlight didn't want to live, even when trying to turn on a match no matter how many times the experiment I did to make the light source nothing ever worked.

It was as if this room itself was an absolute darkness that rejected all light.

Helpless on all the experiments, I walked forward trying to make progress inside this room. Well at least, this room doesn't numb my sense of taste so I can tell that I can still move.

But in this room, I can't even see if I can find the exit here? 

*Plac

I slap myself, a pessimistic thought can destroy a person's faith. If I'm really determined to find a way out, then set it in your heart and get rid of all the things that get in the way of your belief.

After reflecting, I walked back to the front even though I did not know where I was going. But it seems like this place is really wide and without any hindrance because wherever I try to walk either to the right or left I do not find any obstruction like a wall.

Even after a long walk I had no idea where I was walking at the moment, in this whole dark room there was the feeling of someone watching me. But I immediately shook my head as it was very easy to form an imagination when a strong feeling mixed with a supportive environment.

It's like someone trying to go to the toilet in the middle of the night, even if it looks like no one but there will still be fear in the heart. Even I can feel fear, what is expected of me? I'm not a super creature that doesn't fear anything, I'm just a human being. So it's only natural that I have all the feelings including fear.

It's obviously imagination, but I can barely stand the atmosphere in this room. Even at this moment I began to feel that something seemed to be awakening and moving inside my body.

I believe someone would be completely insane if they continued to be in this room.

I don't know how long I've been walking, I can't even feel tired, hungry or thirsty. Is it because this room shuts down all my passions or the characteristics of this room keeps someone in their initial condition continuously? Well I don't know which one, all I have to do is keep going.

In the end I was surprised because at the end of my vision there appeared a light that seemed very far away. Is this a dream? or just an imagination formed from a great sense of wanting to get out of this room. But all of those things don't matter, of all the things on this floor are the only clues to get out.

Like someone who finds an oasis after walking in the desert all day. I ran towards the light quickly.

After running for a while, the light seemed to get closer and this made me believe that this light was really real not just my imagination. I kept up my running, even though I couldn't feel tired right now I still really didn't know if this room was really affecting me or not.

If the truth is that my body is exhausted, I will eventually fall by myself. Therefore to avoid this, let's maintain our current speed. The light did not go from its place.

After some time, I finally arrived at the light source. The light seemed to come from a large circle floating in the middle of this room. I tried to touch the light and I felt my hand go through something, like I was trying to raise my hand above the surface of the water where my body was diving in.

Because there was nothing else to do in this dark room, so I immediately walked into the light. It was so blinding that I had to close my eyes and block it with my hands.

As the glare light slowly subsided, I tried to open my eyes only to find a familiar scene in front of me.

It's still like a parking lot view, but the difference is I'm currently in a parking lot that leads to the outdoors, and I can now really see the cityscape from here.

For a moment I thought I had returned to my original world, but I was wrong. Because the scene shown in front of me was a barren and abandoned city that seemed to have been abandoned for many years.
