Introduction
Set in a dystopian America in the near future, the story tells of the experiences of five 16-year-olds who were living in orphanages who wake up to find themselves in a strange building that has no walls, no ceiling, and no floor: nothing but endless flights of stairs leading in every direction, seemingly infinite, so that it is impossible to get one's bearings or have perspective. On one landing is a basin of running water that serves as a toilet, sink and drinking fountain; on another, a machine with lights that intermittently produces food. The five, thrown together in these bizarre circumstances, must learn to deal with the others' disparate personalities, the lack of privacy and comfort, their clear helplessness, and a machine that only feeds them under gradually more exacting situations.

Chapter

None of them knew why they were here? or even how they got here?

The one thing they do know is that this place...whatever it is, it's like a prison, it's meant to torture them. Not physically, it's like a logical...

"Listen, you really need to know what Hanna is saying about you!"

Peter, Hanna, Cheryl, Blossom, Oliver.

Five, sixteen-year Olds. All orphans, living in a state institution.

They were here, and were questioning everyone and everything around them, but none of them knew.

One of them is arrogant

"What the hell are you doing?"

"You are ruining everything."

They are brought one by one to the place which was not a hospital and not a prison and not like anything any of them had ever seen.

One of them is spiteful.

"No! She won't say that-."

No walls, No ceiling, No floor. Nothing but stairs- and the red machine.

One is a victim.

Turning against the only people they have, failed to survive? is there an escape to this?

One never forgets.

"Have you ever wondered what's behind that red mahine?"

In the extreme circumstances what are we all truly capable of?

Two are manipulative.

If you do the right things-

You will be rewarded...or else-

"louder, jasper, louder!"

Jasper? what was the message?

–except back to a strange red machine?

Three wants to be the leader

Hit, betray, lie—and be rewarded. Refuse, and starve.

All are at the mercy of the machine.

 "real meat...My mother and father...had it once." 

Controlling them, Will that bring out the very best or the worst of them?

What will happen, if you are just put into a place with just white, bright, stairs- nothing else. The type of stairs, from where you can fall. And die? Who knows where you will be if you go down there in the white mist. No sound. Just the stairs- twisting in a senseless way. Will you be able to survive? Will you be able to change that fate?

"Are you really going up there?"

"Atleast it's better than doing nothing, and starving who knows we might be able to find something."

I am not who I think I am, I am not who you think I am, I am what I think you think I am.
