The moment the egg-shaped seats popped open, snapping everyone out of their fairytale daze, the crying started up again, echoing through the theater.

  First, it was the little girl with pigtails who burst into tears.

  Then, like a powder keg had been lit, every kid in the place was wailing!

  "What's wrong?"

  "Why are they crying again?"

  "Didn't you guys enjoy the 6D experience? You seemed to be having fun, so what's with the waterworks now?"

  The teachers were losing it, scrambling to kneel down beside the kids, trying to comfort them one by one.

  "T-teacher..." the pigtail girl sobbed, "I don't wanna leave! I wanna stay there forever! I wanna be a princess, waiting to be rescued by my prince!"

  "I wanna fly around in the sky some more!"

  "Waaah... I wanted to stay a cute little deer!"

  One after another, the kids chimed in with their reasons for crying.

  "Alright, alright, guys, no need to cry. If you still wanna play, just get your parents to bring you back on the weekend!" one teacher called out.

  "But teacher, why can't we keep playing *now*?" the pigtail girl persisted.

  The teacher scratched her head. "Well, honey, we've got a ton of other kids waiting to come in. If you guys stay here forever, what about them?"

  "But when can I play in there, free as a bird?"

  A bunch of kids stared up at the teachers with pleading eyes, on the verge of total meltdown.

  "Next time!"

  "Definitely next time!"

  The teachers made their promises again and again.

  Finally, the kids were reluctantly dragged out of the theater by their teachers.

  Every kid looked back with longing, their eyes full of regret.

  "Fourth, fifth, and sixth grade, get ready! It's your turn to watch the movie in the theater!" the principal announced, getting the next group ready.

  The three classes, over a hundred kids in total, gathered together in a noisy bunch.

  "Teacher, can't we skip the movie? I wanna go do something else!"

  "Yeah, a picnic would be way more fun than a movie!"

  "I wanna climb a tree!"

  Despite the protest, a group of children were unwillingly dragged into the Wonderland 6D theater.

  Half an hour later, those hundred-plus kids stumbled out, eyes red and puffy, totally bummed out.

  The kids and teachers who were waiting for their turn couldn't believe what they were seeing.

  The first group of kids came out like this.

  But it happened again!

  The second batch of kids came out.

  Going in, all energetic and carefree. Coming out, a mess of tears. Something was definitely up.

  "Ms. Lynn, did you guys beat the kids in there? How else do you explain a hundred-plus kids all crying at once? A fairytale movie shouldn't be this emotionally scarring!" one of the teachers couldn't help but ask.

  Before she could answer, the other teachers had already started brainstorming ridiculous scenarios.

  They start coming up with a theory! Brothers were watching a sad movie. The older brother started crying but the younger brother stared with a straight face as he was suppressing his laughter! Then the older brother back handed him which lead to the younger brother bawling even more.

  Ms. Lynn chuckled. "The movie wasn't all that moving. The plot was so-so, actually."

  "Aha!" The teacher who'd asked the question slapped his thigh. "So you're admitting you beat the kids in there! Ms. Lynn, that's pretty rough!"

  "Yeah, totally!"

  "Even if the kids are crying, you can't just hit them! If the education board finds out, you'll be suspended for sure!"

  The other teachers chimed in.

  Ms. Lynn's face darkened. "What are you even saying? You'll understand when you go in!"

  "The kids are crying because they don't want to leave."

  "Yeah right! What other way is there to make this many kids cry than by getting violent with them!"

  "No way I'm believing a movie can make people so attached they don't want to leave the theater!"

  "Is there gold hidden in there? Is Lynn waiting inside for them? Why would they get so upset when leaving?"

  The teachers all shook their heads in disbelief and wandered off.

  As the day went on, however, the teachers were proven wrong in a major way.

  Every kid they took into the theater came out crying, often even worse than the kids from the earlier classes.

  They were basically glued to the seats, refusing to move unless they were picked up and carried out, kicking and screaming.

  "Ms. Lynn, we apologize!"

  "Ugh, I'm never taking kids to a place like this again. Happy going in, a total headache coming out!"

  "Forget the kids, even *I* didn't want to leave! I'm bringing my own kids here this weekend, for sure!"

  "You know what? I've got this couch potato friend who would love this place. I'll drag him here this weekend!"

  The day flew by.

  Every single class from Riverdale Elementary School made it through the 6D theater that day!

  They arrived kicking and screaming, and they left kicking and screaming.

  After arriving home the teachers gave them homework. The students had to write about their field trip program and had to be a minimum of 800 words.

  The students began their 800 word homework but didn't mind.

  They had experiences in the Starlight Amusement Park and could not help but feel their energy begin to surge which allowed the children to write about it so effortlessly. Some kids even surpassed the 800 word homework requirement.

  The teachers began collecting the assignments and also realized how all the students were providing the amusement park a good rating while having some very good quality writing. Each students emotions expressed that of a cheerful person.

  The staff from Steiny Amusement Park began creating their assignment that was ordered by the employer.

  The two workers stand with their leader and begin to hand over some of the information they had regarding the Star Light Amusement Park.

  "Boss, I don't feel very confident about this article."

  "That's right boss, do you mind finding other members to do it? Maybe find people who are more adapt to writing fake stuff online?"

  Their employer began stretching as he saw the material in front of him.

  "Why don't you feel good about this article?"

  "I know, writing this bad stuff feels wrong but don't worry about it, I'll pay you more for your help!"

  "Just go with the same feeling that you felt and began creating!"

  "This kid didn't get to ride a ride, write it down so we can start promoting this negativity!"

  The two staff paused as they saw this happen.

  Looking back, this was when the staff had taken a picture of a student while she didn't want to leave.

  "Boss, are you sure we want to write all of our real feelings?"

  "Well then this works for me!"

  The two began looking around anxiously and concerned about it all.

  "Yes just write, give it to me when you're done. I'm getting really impatient with all this!" Their leader replied with no patience.

  Once the two were out of earshot the leader scoffed and began expressing his thoughts!

  "These guys never seem to have any real feelings, how could they need assistance when it is about a personal expression?"
