We were quietly sitting on the floor trying to process everything that happend.

Why was I suprised? I mean the guard told me its a death game...?

Just as I thought about guards, they stormed in.
They congratulated us for winning the first game, and announced results of the first game.
He meant the count of players.
It started going down rapidly.

456
361
301
250
201.

It went down for a half. More then 200 people has died already. 255 percisely.

Some lady started begging that she would pay her debt and pleaded to go home. And few others joined in.
The square guard reminded them that they were missunderstood and that they arent here to collet our money but give us a chance to win more money then we needed.

I saw that they needed help so I went up on the stage beside them.
Wasnt thinking straight.

"It was written pretty clearly on the paper that YOU ALL SIGNED" I yelled making that 'you all signed' pop out.
"That there is no leaving game untill all the games are over and money is won!" I yelled
All the guards looked at me and noded as 'thank you'

2 guards gently lifted me up then down back from the stage. There was a girl. She ran up on the stage just like I did, but they quickly pushed her off and she fell down.
"Why dont I get special treatment?" She asked rudely
I just knew there was going to be a pick me...

One of the guards fired his gun immediately after she spoke.

"Before the second game begins. I want to announce prize money for the previous game." Square guard stated
He clicked the button and lights went out, that huge piggy thing came out of the roof. Money started dropping inside like crazy. Catching everyones attention.
"25.5 billion won of prize money was accumulated so far" the square guard stated
"Again. Before we continue to the next game, the food will be served." The guard stated

Does only this guard talk or..?

We made few clean lines towards guards that served food.

I got my food and looked inside.

Well at least this isnt that bad... right?

Inside was some rice, egg and some vegetables. But inside my tray was also something small, paperlike. I spread the paper quietly. On the paper was circle, triangle and square but these ones were fully black. I decided not to think much of it. But looking back at it now, I wish I did. I shoved the paper inside my pocket and ate the food.

The female voice was heard again.
"Its time for sleep, please make your way to your beds, lights will be out in 1 minute."
I did as she said and sure lights went out as I made myself comfortable.

Time skip

Few hours passed, I couldnt really sleep because my teeths felt really dirty, and I cant sleep without brushing them. But.....
Also this woman was keeping me awake. She was yelling at the guards, swearing at them to let her go pee. I couldnt take it anymore so I rose up from the bed and walked over to her.
"What is your problem?" I asked her
"I need to fucking pee and these bastards wont let me go to the bathroom. I guess I will just pee right here!" She yelled
"Please dont" I said disgusted.
I softly knocked on the door, and triangle guard opened the little window.

"Can I come out? I need to talk to you." I said calmly and he shut the window
"What did you think bitch? That he would listen to you even though he doesnt listen to me?" Woman said angrily.
Now even seconds after the guard opened the door, he let me pass but held up his gun at the woman when she tried to go out with me. He started to shut the door into her face when I stopped him.

"Please let her go to the bathroom. I wont be able to sleep if she keeps yelling" I said calmly placing my hand on his.
He gave up and let the woman to the bathroom, she went in without even saying thank you.
The guard stood firmly waiting for me to speak.
"Can i have 5 minutes? I need to brush my teeth, I cant sleep when their not brushed." I said.
He looked at the camera as in waiting for an approval. He then noded yes to me and I made my way to the bathroom.

I did what I needed and before I could reach the door I smelt cigarette smoke.
"Wtf?!" I exclaimed and went over to the stall where the woman was
"Open the stall door." I demanded
"Why you wanna watch me pee creep." She said rudely

"I know you arent peeing I can smell the smoke." I said and opened the door
She awkwardly smiled at me
"I helped you get to the bathrooms so you could 'pee' but your actually here to smoke?" I asked firmly
"So what? You want a rewarsd what?" She asked
"Rude bitch." I rolled my eyes
"You want some?" She asked

I took few smokes and made my way to the door.
"No word about this." She said
"No word. And we arent friends." I stated and left
The triangle opened the door for me but I quickly closed it.
"Uhh I have a question. Rather something to show you." I said, he nodded
"I got this? Inside my food box?" I said showing him a paper
"I cant tell you what this is yet, but thank you for showing me, this will make it a lot easier later." He stated and opened the door again
"Okay. Thanks?" I said
"Good night." He wished me
"Good night to you to" I said with a smile.

Time skip

Tomorrow morning has came, the soldiers were already in, and everyone except me still asleep.
I quietly made my way over to them, maybe their friendly? And could be helpful having them as friends?

"Good morning" I greeted them sweetly
"Morning." They all said back in unison

"Any ideas for today's game?" I asked
"Yes, not able to tell you." The square guard said
"Hint?" I asked but was ignored
I groaned and decided to walk away but tripped and almost fell, but thankfully the square guard ran towards me and catched me before I did.

"Thank you" I said with a little blush
"No problem." He stated and gently put me on my feet.
Not long after everyone started waking up.
We ate our breakfasts and made our ways to the next game.

We came into the room full of clouds and playground items. But they were huge. We saw huge doors infront of us, and they each had a different shape on them.
"Please choose a shape and make your way to the doors immediately." Same female voice said
I was deciding which shape should be the best and went with the triangle.
I was handed a small tin and was commanded to open it after everyone else gets theirs.

Timer was set and rules have been told.
We opened each tin and saw the shape we went with and needle beside it.
Thank god I went with triangle.

The timer was set on 10 minutes.
We all started strong but even after few minutes, gunshots were heard. It made me shake a bit. 5 minutes passed and I wasnt even on half. I was scared.
Few tears rolled down my face, but someone gently brushed my tears from my cheek. I looked up and saw guard squatting infront of me.
"Dont cry. Your doing well." He said quietly but reassuring. I then continued my work and was actually finished not even 2 minutes later.

I didnt have to tap him to show him, he was watching me the whole time still squatting.
He noded proudly.
"Player 455, pass" female voice said
I exhaled in relief.
It was finally over...
