I am in the basement of my college, where the orchestra room is. I go on the elevator and it crashes almost downstairs, and I take the stairs the rest of the way. I get my viola and try to get the heck out of there. But then as I go through a door I was transported to another realm that at first was just me. I needed to find somewhere to sleep. There were sliding glass doors that I go through and I am at my old house in Golden Valley. I go to the mudroom and take a nap on a yoga mat. I realize in a bit that Sophia followed me here, and I go outside to the deck. I look out into the backyard and I see that there are a lot of different rooms out there. I go to look. One with jewelry, one with food carts, etc. We go from room to room and she is trying to stop me from doing too much. I realize something is wrong. The doors from here to my normal world are going to close soon, and Sophia wants me to stay there. I try to find ways to get out, but then Brita comes through the door. I tell her that we need to try to get out of here, and I tell her to follow me. I tell Sophia to follow me too, and say that none of us belong here. I find the guy who made the spine and ribs in my welding class and he might be the one to lead us out of there. We make it back to the jewelry room where I started and the door is almost disappearing into the ground. It’s too small for me to go through. Then the welding guy props under it and holds it more open for me and Brita to go through. I have to leave the viola behind because we need to move fast. We go through the opening and get out to the other side and we are back in the basement of the college where I started and the elevator works again so we can get out. I realize Sophia never made it out and I was sad that she could be stuck there forever. There was no way to go back and save her. So we all go up the stairs.
