Stream of Consciousness Saturday : Press

Press the button and let’s see what happens. It all started out so simply, no pressure, just the four of us messing around.
Well,after we depressed the button all hell let loose. There were lights and alarm bells ringing. It was scary and honestly deafening!
The huge metal door flew open at an alarming speed. What was there for us to do but enter. At first it was dark but we could see lights ahead. We made our way slowly towards the light, then the door slammed shut with a resounding bang behind us . Mercifully there was silence
I remember thinking well there is no return we must just go forward. So we pressed on.

Eventually we reached a portal with two exits . One marked yes and one marked no . We stood there in the middle of nowhere wondering which way to go. There felt like there was no way back with the door locked and there was a force- field in front of us. It had to be one of the exits here either side of us. We looked at the yes door and there was nothing there to help us make a decision so we looked at the no door . Hanging by the the no door there were four pressure suits , boots and helmets. There was a red cupboard with a note on the door saying “Don’t forget your jet packs and oxygen.

Well I ask you, the four of us all reached for the suits. Once suited booted and helmeted we helped each other with the oxygen and the jet packs. We were ready, what a day this was turning out to be!

We all moved to the door and red the instructions : Big red letters said press.

WooW
