OWNER
I opened my eyes slowly light piercing into them, I quickly shut them again because carefully opening them. I tried to sit up, a sharp pain in my head told me otherwise. I remembered the last game, my heart still aching for those that didn't survive. I guess the pain in my head was caused by the sleeping gas that had been released in the blue room. I sighed.
I looked round. Where the hell was I this time? It was a wide room completely white and except the bed there it was filled with nothing. Nothing? The heck? I was finally able to sit up after sometimes and I wasn't too surprised to see white clothes folded neatly by the edge of the bed with new pair of white sneakers. I noticed that my body had been cleaned of the dirt of the previous game. Who the hell were this people?
Kayla..James I suddenly remembered and once again I didn't know where Kayla was.
PLAYERS that mysterious voice said again ALL LEFT ARE THOSE WHO SURVIVED THE FIRST GAME my heart was thumping in my chest.. was there going to be another game so soon? I wondered
FOR NOW , EACH PLAYER WOULD BE ASSIGNED TO AN OWNER ..YOUR OWNER HAS THE RIGHT TO DO ANYTHING WITH YOU OR TO YOU FOR THE NEXT 48 HOURS. YOU ARE TO REFER TO THEM AS OWNER. PUT ON THE CLOTHES ON YOUR BEDSIDE AND WAIT FOR YOUR OWNER TO COME IN
Okay I was confused..this wasn't a second game but we were belonging to someone? Owner? I quickly put on the clothes before the so called "owner" came in.
After about ten minutes the voice said again
OWNERS MAY ENTER NOW
I looked up as I heard my door open. The fuck? My owner was a guy...shit.
ALL PLAYERS HAVE A BRACELET ON THEIR ANKLES. ANYTIME YOU DISOBEY YOUR OWNER YOU'LL BE SHOCKED BY THOSE BRACELETS... GOODLUCK PLAYERS the voice concluded
The guy presumed to be my owner just stood there looking at me. I stared back at him.
Feisty he muttered
I heard that Mr sir owner I scoffed
I'm Joseph the man said
Joseph I tried the name on my lips not a bad name he smiled
But I have to refer to you as owner...rules of this dumb game I sighed
Now I own you for 48 hours why don't we get out of here first? He said coming closer to me
Get out? My eye brows raising in a questioning manner where?
You'll see he said as I stretched his hand towards me. I hesitated before I took it.
We turned towards the door he had come from. We stepped out , I gasped.
Woahhhh I said in awe
Now this was different from the previous setting of the first game..well this wasn't a game but the setting of this place was in high contrast to the one of before.
There were talk buildings..like really tall. Each building had a large tube attached to it by the side for what? Transportation...haaa....in the tubes were bubble like shaped thingies that I didn't know the name. This tubes spread throughput the city. Apart from that there were large animals flying about the street. They were beautiful. I had never seen such an amazing sight in my life. Hundred of lights were hung on the street giving the place a colorful glow. They had shops were different things were sold.
I was in awe looking around when I felt a hand on my shoulders... of course I had forgotten about my owner, I rolled my eyes internally.
Sorry I apologized
He didn't say anything. He pointed at a huge tall building. That's where you'll be staying for the next 48 hours and of course with me he said smiling so..ewwwishly .
He led me to the tube beside the building. We got into the bubble looking thingy , it shot out like a jet. I held unto Joseph for balanced, I looked up him after realizing what I had done and found out that the guy had actually been staring at me. I pulled away in embarrassment.
After a while we got to the building. It was magnificently made of glass. White glass that shone beautifully as it was lit up by the displayed lights on the street. It was perfect..I awed in silence.
As we walked into the building, I noticed I we were not the only pair of of owner and person walking into the building. Each pair stepping into what I assumed was a room door but my owner and I just kept on walking..the heck? Turns out our own room was at the far end of the hall.
Joseph brought out a Pentagon shaped glass and opened the door with it.
We are here he said as we stepped in
I honestly didn't expect the place to be this huge. I looked around. It was literally a flat with two rooms, a kitchen and a huge bath.
You'll stay in a room and I'll stay in one Joseph said nonchalantly as he walked into the room close to the entrance. I was left with the one at the far end by the kitchen.
As I entered the room, my mind was immediately at ease. The warmth of the light flowed in through the window..the soft peach color of the room walls, the cream colored bedsheets, it all felt peaceful.
I layed on the bed my body relaxing. I sprang up at a sudden sound. My mind racing as I traced the source. It was coming from the bracelet around my ankle.
PLAYER that mysterious voice said YOU'LL BE GIVEN TASKS TO BE PERFORMED WHILE YOU'RE WITH YOUR OWNER.. CHECK ON THE BEDSIDE FOR YOUR FIRST TASK
Tasks? I thought they said this wasn't a game. I stood up walking to the table by the bedside and true enough there was a card there.
Number of tasks to be carried out:5
Number carried out successfully: 0
Number failed: 0
Number of tasks on : 1
Task to be performed: make your owner food

GOODLUCK PLAYER
That was the task I had to do? Just make him food? This was going to be too easy .
