[h3]Observatory[/h3]
Climbing the ladder Chris found himself in another room. It was more open and there seemed to be quite a few more of the plants growing. Light was creeping in. If there weren't so many more questions he might actually stop and observe them more. He'd never seen a plant grow so quickly. He was hoping to see who had knocked but didn't see anyone ready for that. Not far away was a mobile of the solar system. The Earth appeared to be glowing slightly as if illuminated from inside. 

Glancing around he didn't see anyone that could have knocked on the floor. Avoiding the ever growing vines he looked around for anyone else. There seemed to be a route up but he didn't go up just yet. The door was left open like below. Perhaps everyone left like the people he was with a moment ago. The weather was clearly degrading outside and it didn't particularly look inviting. 

It was then that he heard the screeching made by some thing. From the sound he wouldn't pin it as a human. This place was becoming progressively stranger and he was beginning to question what was going on. This seemed more like a dream than anything. How else do you explain the bizarre environment and happenings thus far?
