"Id like a room on the 13th floor. Its my lucky number" you explain
"Ok....but there will be around 10 others up there as its not one of our popular floor. For obvious reason. Also...once you go up. You cant leave the floor till you checkout. But every accommodation will be availiable. A restaurant, recreation area, etc."
"I dont see myself leaving much of my room so not coming down is fine."
The woman sighed and gives you the key. Tells you to put it into the button to let it know where you are heading. You thank her and head to the elevator. The woman then makes a call.
"Yeah Jack....its me Janice. Mr. Quinn arrived and will be staying on your floor......No he didnt.....I didnt get a chance. Figured seeing is believing. So meet him as he gets off since he'd need explanation....Ok thanks."
You enter the elevator and like how the woman explained the floor numbers go down instead of up. You insert the key into floor 1 and turn. The door closes. The light above you glows brighter which you dont think much of it. Once the elevator started moving. You began to feel uneasy. You look in the mirror to see your five o clock shadow gone. By the time you reach the 15th floor you notice your clothes looking weird. Like different. Plus you look leaner then before. Plus the elevator was beginning to look bigger.
When you are on the 13th floor, the doors open and the place looks a little big. Thats when you see a man.
"Hello Mr. Quinn. You might be feeling odd. I think you should see a mirror. You are confused by follow him. When you see a mirror you are shocked. You look like a middle schooler.
"What happened to me on the elevator." you say covering your moth in shock of how young you sounded
"My name is Jack. The receptionist or your aunt didnt tell you is this a magic hotel that allows its guests to relive their youth. As you can tell the floor determines your age. Since you are on the 13th floor. You are now 13. Dont worry when you return to the lobby tomorrow to check out you'll age back the same way you got younger."
"I guess its fine, being 13 isnt too bad. Thank goodness I didnt stay on 1st floor or right now would be in diapers" you said sounding a little relieved its not 100% permanent.
"Yes, most do like being 13 due to puberty but some dont really care. These bracelets like the one your aunt left you...prevent the hotel's effects change us. If you wore yours...you wouldve ridden up unchanged."
"So every other guests are 13 as well?"
"Yes and everything on the floor is meant to make 13 year olds happy. Arcade, movie room, candy. Restaraunt even has the foods they'd like. Shall I show you to your room?"
You...
