The red one read; Incapacitate, whilst the green one read; grant clearance…
"Grant Intruders three moth temporary access to secret elevator…"
Chu-Lom!
Temporary Access Granted…
Instantly, the three nerds saw their watches display;
'You Have Received Three Months Access To Secret Elevator' in their notification tab…
"You will take this secret elevator anytime we are having our meetings…"
"This is the level of secrecy and discretion I want you all to exhibit for the next three months till these projects are done…"
Sam added as the elevator ascended with an even faster speed than the VIP elevator he had used the last time…
Ding!
The elevator door opened and all they could see was a dark corridor, then;
Tan! Tan!
Tan! Tan!
Tan! Tan!
The lights within the corridor came on one after the other before they stopped in front of a huge door at the end of the corridor…
Sam took this place in...
It had never been unlocked before and would be his new home for the next [only God knows how long…]
"These walls, floor and ceiling are made out of gesture, pressure and temperature sensitive panels which will record data about you, and use that data about you to identify an intruder and alert you when someone else is walking through this corridor…"
"Lined along the edges of the ceiling are ultraviolet lights that kill the germs on you before you reach the end of the corridor, and these overhead lights can be changed to suit your preference; from this simple led, to halogen, to neon, and finally party lights…" Jim began his tour-guide duties as;
"There are also hidden cameras, and extremely dangerous, precise and sensitive security measures; ranging from laser beams, to lethal gases and chemical, extreme temperature regulators, and shock pins…"
"Shock pins?"
Sam asked as Tim and Kiki also looked to Jim for explanation which caused a smug grin to stain his face…
"Yeah… They are three inch pins which would have been charged with about 1000 volts and can be shot from any random angle within this corridor, and once they stab into their target, they sink into their flesh before releasing all that charge into their target's bodies, frying them from within…" Jim said proudly…

"Luckily, they have all been disabled until the resident of this floor takes control of it…"
"…and how am I gonna do that?"
"Follow me…"
Jim stepped forward and the moment his foot stepped into the corridor, each panel his foot touched lit up with a white light…
The remaining trio tagged along and just like Jim, their steps also caused the floor tiles to light up with white light…
On getting to the massive door, a system A.I spoke;
"Welcome, Voice Activation Required…"
"Hey Jim, it's me, Jim!"
Access Granted...
Tissshhh!
The massive door opened like the door of an alien ship; with the gases and the sound of a space ship engine which was about to take off…
"Welcome Jim!"
The lighting of this room ran from the entrance on the right across the walls of the room around to the left of the entrance, carrying everyone's gaze along with it as it lit up with magnificent colors that ensured that this place was neither bright nor dim…
"Woah!" The trio couldn't help but chorus in amazement;
"In here, there are 360 motion sensors and projection panels, making this room the third wonder of the world…"
"One which no one asides everyone within this room and anyone you wish to bring up here will know about…"
Jim continued with one hand pocketed in his jogger pocket and another holding a seemingly tiny pointing device…
Then he pressed a button and several panels began to pop out of different locations within the house, displaying the image of everyone present in extremely fine details…
Sam looked over to one of the panels which displayed only his own image and waved at it, as his mirror image waved back simultaneously with great details including his squint; then to his right, he could see the image of Tim and Kiki kissing themselves, and having fun with their mirror images doing the same thing…
Sam shook his head, genuinely impressed as he looked over to Jim and commented;

"Wow, this is magnificent…"
"Thanks, but I am over there…"
Jim pointed to the opposite direction and it was only then that Sam realized that he had just spoken to Jim's mirror image…
Jim simply smiled smugly as Sam also responded with a cool but slightly awkward smile…
"In here, anything is possible…"
Jim said as he clicked on the pointing device which converted into a tablet instantly as one side of the device detached from its frame and opened wide for about ten inches…
The moment that happened all the screen panels returned to their hub…
"There are also 30,000 ultra - high definition panels within this room…"
As Jim continued, he tapped on one part of the makeshift high tech tablet, and instantly, everyone heard a dragon's roar, followed by a huge shadow move past them, terrifying them to their bones, and even Sam himself felt a little shake, as the shadow of the dragon moved past them on the ground then crawled up the walls until it came to the roof and then coiled around the dangling decoration of a massive egg placed atop a giant nest like structure made out of natural hay, branches and leaves, making the dragon shadow seem like it was guarding the egg…
It was only then that everyone knew there was no dragon and what they had just seen was just the panels built into this entire room, displaying the image of a black colored dragon moving from one screen panel to the other…
"These panel also comes with embedded 16k cameras on both sides…"
"Both sides… Why's that?"
Sam asked but Jim simply gave him the answer by pressing a single button on the tablet and everyone's heart nearly leapt through their throat, Sam inclusive…
This time he was really scared out of his wits because; everything panel within the room simply displayed everything happening on the outside, from a vantage point of over 118 floors off the ground…
Sam looked beneath his foot and he was literally not only looking at the roofs of other skyscrapers that had the 'H' sign of an helipad on them, but was also seeing the traffic down within the streets, as well as the people moving about and the several stalls and restaurants within the streets…
"Welcome to Jim's Heaven, Super Sam…" Jim said proudly;
"You can be within the streets without leaving your room… You can check out the latest magazine at that coffee shop without leaving your room…"
Jim made the statement and backed it up by pressing a button on the tablet that zoomed the entire display above the head of a bald man drinking his coffee and reading the latest magazine with one leg crossed over the other and his black suede long coat…
Everyone could easily read what the man was reading and Sam had to clutch his chest slightly, due to the speed at which the display was zoomed…
After walking them through the remaining parts of the apartment which included a swimming pool that could be converted to an outdoor swimming pool by simply ejecting itself out of the firm's building, there was also the kitchen which also had several panels which was linked to all the motion sensors, within the apartment, displaying the footage of any part of the apartment that anything moved…
That way, a mother could cook comfortably in the kitchen knowing what her sixteen children are doing in sixteen different part of the apartment…
There were also automated cleaning devices; which ranged from a simple automatic vacuum cleaner, to mud cleaner, dryers for wet floors and the top notch insect killing air freshener…
The was a giant 300 inch TV which drops down from the roof, as well as in built surround sound system which gives fantastic listening experience from every single angle of the room to a factor of .005 degrees…
It has an inbuilt garden, basketball court, gym, trampoline and an aquarium where several little unique and endangered species of fishes were swimming around…
There was a yoga room with aroma therapy candles arranged in specific and intentional manner...
