The Zodiac Games

We Definitely Excelled The Plan!

VIRGO ♍

"Hey! Don't touch me!" I shout, flinching as a guard shoved me into a small room. I shuddered at the sight of it. Don't they know that claustrophobia is a thing?

I guess no one told them that.

Or they wanted us to feel like that on purpose. That makes more sense. They want us to feel alone and miserable. Well, whatever. I'm determined not to feel that way, even if it's out of pure spite.

After we tried- and failed to escape from those weirdly touchy men, we were separated and brought into different rooms to be confined in. For how long, I don't know. And that makes me rather nervous. I don't like not knowing things, especially when it involves me and the people I have grown to care about.

But less nervous when I saw-

Ugh. I don't even want to recall what happened just now. It still made me sick.

All that blood...

I was, coincidentally, in a room with my cousin Taurus. He was lazing around in the corner when I was yanked into the room. I landed with a thump and scared the life out of him.

He had jumped in shock and spilled a can of coke all over the floor.

"Taurus!" I yelled, partly in shock at the sight of him and also the drink. "Clean that up! Also, why do you have coke?!"

"How am I supposed to clean it up without a cloth? And why not? I like coke." Taurus blinked up innocently at me, not moving an inch.

"JUST CLEAN IT."

"Okay...."

I watched as he used his shirt to wipe it away, hearing him groan and grumble to himself about not being able to sleep well now due to his wet and dirty shirt. Where did he get that cola from... I have no clue. Maybe he brought it here with him... but how? Wouldn't the guards or kidnappers have taken it away? This sneaky little...!

I decide to ignore him and sit down in the opposite corner, shutting my eyes. I needed time to reflect and collect my thoughts.

What do they want us here for? To experiment? To kill someone? To... to what? I don't know, and that makes me so frustrated and weary. I didn't know anything about this place or how to get out, and it was stressing me.

I really hope... that they won't do such awful things.

Let me pray to God...

Capricorn, one of my friends... she already killed someone called Jacoby Willis. It was rather traumatising to see her do that. She looked half glad, half disgusted and also really surprised that she actually killed him.

Her eyes turned red.

Is she a vampire or something? In disguise? I'm surprised I never noticed my friend was a blood-sucking creature.

I never even assumed she was once in my entire history of knowing her. Okay, she's probably not one. But...

How had she did that then? Turn her eyes red. To he honest, I was more surpirsed her eyes turn red then the fact she had murdered someone. Death... death was familiar, in ways I don't feel like explaining anytime soon. It gave me horrible nightmares I don't want to deal with in an unfamiliar environment... or ever.

I hear Taurus shuffling as I open my eyes again. "Hey, Virggy. Why do you think Capricorn snapped?"

I stared at him blankly. "Jacoby broke her arm, didn't he? Or is it her leg?"

"Yeah, but usually she doesn't kill the person, just maybe break his arm or leg as well. Why did you think she did it?"

I sighed. I did not want to think about it again. It was unnerving. As familiar to death as I am, I still get unsettled by it. Especially when I see my best friend do that. I never thought she was capable of such cruelty. Sure, she could be rather cold and unfeeling at times, but she's also a really sweet person. To see her do that... She must have had her reasons.
