Chapter 3
I stood up quickly as the siren blared and the red lights flashed. The door beside me flew open as Blake, Kai, and the two adults rushed out.
“They’re here. Follow us,” they said. With that we began running. All around I heard voices and footsteps. As we came to a four way the two adults looked at us.
“Skye, You go to the left. Kai, to the hallway to the right, and Blake keep going straight ahead,” they said.
“What about you guys?” I asked.
“Don’t worry. They’re not after us. They won’t do anything except try to get information out of us,” said the lady and I nodded before running down the hallway they told me to. As I ran I brushed my fingers against the wall for a few seconds, coming to a stop at the turn, listening. I heard nothing but the sirens so I turned and kept running. My breath was already shallow as I was a little out of shape. Even though what happened in the simulation did everything to my body that had happened I was still sore from lying there so long. I was worn out. I clenched my teeth as my body began slowing with the pain of running as I continued to try pushing myself. Gosh darn it. I thought before hearing footsteps and yelling. I pushed myself even harder to run as I swung around the corner, pain pulsing through my legs.
“There she is!” called one of them as I ran down the hall. No. I have to keep going. I thought before I heard a shot and something hit my leg. Then, my leg went numb and I fell to the floor. I tried to push myself up but then someone grabbed my arms and pulled them behind me as I averted my eyes to the floor.
“Sorry kid. But you know the rules,” said a male voice before there was a shot of pain in my neck and my vision went black.

I woke up with my vision a little foggy before it cleared. The walls around me were pure white and I was lying in a bed, but this time there was nothing over my wrists. I sat up and looked at the white walls, noticing no exit or any windows at all. There has to be some way out. I thought, remembering the nether with it seeming to have almost no escape except for one, the portal. I slid off the bed before putting my fingertips to the wall, feeling for anything strange. Then, there was a ringing and I turned away, looking around.
“H- hello?” I asked, glancing around nervously before a chill went down my spine.
“Welcome Miss Skye,” the voice said and I breathed in sharply. H- He’s here… I thought, my breath shaky as I closed my eyes.
“As you probably know it won’t be long until you and your friends are put in what you should’ve been preparing for the last so many months. It didn’t take long to track you down, but that’s a story for another time,” he said. “You have two hours until you are sent in along with everyone else who has been drafted in. Good luck…” His laughing after those last words turned my blood cold before the call stopped. All I worked to avoid… Everything I tried to get ready for and failed. I almost escaped. We almost escaped… I thought. I opened my eyes and slowly steadied my breathing before sitting on the bed in silence.
“We were so close…” I whispered, my eyes filling with tears.

Almost two hours later…

All I could do to prepare was to mentally get ready for the stress of what was going to happen. I’m going to be thrown in. But this time it could be real or it could be fake. I thought, taking a breath before sliding off the bed. I pulled on my black jacket and zipped it up as I looked at the wall before me. Then, the floor in front of me opened and a table rose in front of me. On top of it was a bracelet and a square piece of paper. I have no choice but to play this sick game… If the person who made it knew the party game was going to become a death game would they have still made it? Would they risk what was to come if they knew… If they knew what the game would do? I thought before putting on the bracelet and picking up the sheet of paper. Numbers came up from the black screen on the bracelet. 2 minutes. It read. I held the plastic covered paper in my hand. As of now it was blank, but soon it’d reveal my fate. I rubbed it in my fingers, feeling it’s strange texture, before glancing at the timer on my wrist.

“Just under a minute,” I whispered. Looking down at the ground before taking a breath. I didn’t want to do this, but there was no escape and even if I didn’t do it now I’d have to do it later. Then, I was blinded by a bright light that enveloped the room as I heard something shatter. Once I regained my vision I was on top of a building in a large city. The sky was filled with stars with only a sliver of the moon to light up the sky. Then, as I looked to see what my role was my finger slipped and my eyes widened as I dropped the cards on the ground. I had not only one card, but two…
