*************

We got to some sort of abandoned home for the elderly.

'How did you end up here?' I asked Marie.

She took a really deep breath

'Well I got admitted into Elliot's college, one of the best schools world wide'.

My eyes widened in shock as she continued.

'I attended this fresher's night......'

'And the seniors asked you to go find a treasure right?' I interrupted, laughing so hard.

'How do you know?'she asked clearly not hiding her fear.

'Thats exactly my story,I got into Elliot's college too, crazy right?'

She gasped.

We talked for hours.

She told me about her brother Adrian and how her dad passed away due to cancer.

I didn't really have a story to tell so I just told her I used to be a sprinter and she said she always went hiking with her dad when he was alive.

'How were you able to run in those heels back then, that was incredible, I actually got that far thanks to you'

' Mountain climbing requires a lot of balance and I've been doing it since I was 10, so running on heels felt like running on flats to me'.

'Wow, that was so cool' I said as I put and ice bag on my toes.

Immediately the door opened a lady with glowy green eyes walked in grinning with her plantanum teeth.

Definitely a cyborg .

Creepy.

Carrying our clothes,

She walked towards us holding some sort of flashlight and I cringed in fear.

Directly in front of me now, she grabbed me left foot.

I tried wriggling my feet out of her hand but she had a really strong grip.

'Stay still' she said as she turned on the flashlight and a red ray shone over my bruises, I felt a sensation almost like a tickle and my bruises began to heal.

She did the same for my right foot and Marie's feet, then she left.

I took a shower, and as I did, pictures of the girl that spilled guts over me flashed through my mind.

Marie took a shower too and in no time , I fell asleep, I didn't even know what time it was.

Two cyborgs barged in causing us to wake up.

They urged us to follow them, we got into a pick-up truck and they dropped us literally in the middle of nowhere.

I noticed a red arrow, the same arrow I followed yesterday, we decided to follow it and it vanished at the front of round building.

We went in.

The door slammed shut behind us.

The first thing I noticed were funny-looking, beast-like, extra-large beasts.

About five of them.

I laughed.

I don't know when to be serious do I?

I realized eight other girls in the room staring blankly at Marie and I.

'Welcome to your second game ' it was GAMES again.

'There are 10 girls in this hall and you'll be playing a game called Beauty and the Beast' .

What's up with these people and Disney princesses.

'All you have to do is to find the sleeping potion hidden in one of the rooms.

The potion will put the beast's to sleep.

Whoever finds the potion and whoever is left when the beasts are asleep wins. P.s there can be more than one winner. You have 3 hours for this game and not the usual 24 hours, who doesn't like a little plot twist?

Let the games begin'.

The beasts woke up with eyes as red as crimson, they walked slowly towards as we all scrambled for our lives.

Marie and I decided to team up as we ran into the third door.

The room was upside down,

Literally,

Chairs and tables where the ceiling should be and the ceiling where the chairs should be.

'What in the world' I yelled.

'I know right, this is insane' replied Marie and so the search began.

'Se-yoon, come see this' Marie called as I walked over to where she was.

A timer?

It was a timer and we had only 15 seconds left.

We continued to search, a lot faster this time.

10,9,8,7,6, the timer began to countdown.

Still no potion.

We ran towards the door and as I opened it we were face-to-face with one of the beasts.

I slammed the door back.

3,2 .

'You go left and I'll go right' I said as fast as possible.

1,

We ran out of the room as it exploded, leaving the walls and doors intact like some kind of incinerator.

I took left and Marie took right.

Not our initial direction but it didn't matter.

The beast didn't follow, it just stayed still as I signaled Marie and we both walked quietly to the fourth door.

'Arhhhhhh' yelled a girl from the first door.

She legit got stabbed immediately she opened her door.

I was so scared.

How am I supposed to know if I'm going to get stabbed?'

All the beasts ran towards the noise.

Marie tried to run but I grabbed her arm.

'Shhh , stay still, they can't see with those eyes, they react to only sound' I said as they walked past us. I've always been really smart.

They began to feed on her body.

Scary.

'I've found the potion' yelled a girl from the end of the hallway.

One of the beasts started to run towards her.

Without hesitating, my body moving faster than my head, I jumped on its back and held it's hairy neck.

Gross.

I would never have done this under normal circumstances.

So this is what fighting for your life feels like.

'Quick, spray it' I yelled as I covered my nose with my hands for safety reasons .

She did and almost immediately it fell as I jumped off it.

Something else fell directly beside the beast and I turned to see.

'Marie!!!, I yelled as I raced towards her.

My guess was right.

The next beast four beasts hastily coming towards us.

Immediately a girl flew out from her door causing a distraction for just two of them.

I slid under the legs of one of them and held onto it causing it to trip, immediately she sprayed it.

Not to worry, I still had my nose covered.

'They're not strong, only a strong kick will take them down, they're just for show' I yelled.

And step by step,

Kick by kick,

Spray by spray,

We took them all out.

I raced back to Marie.

She wasn't breathing.

'No, no' I yelled as I checked her pulse.

I started to cry.

'Wake up Marie, I thought this was a sleeping potion.

As I thought about Marie's brother and how he loved her so much, I cried even more.

The other girl knelt beside me and held me in a embrace.

Both our hearts racing in fear.
