I woke up in a gasp. I looked around making sure it was all a dream. My hands went to my throat. 

It was a nightmare.

I fell asleep on Saebyeok's shoulder. She must have placed a blanket over me in the night. I was safe with her.

My eyes peered at The old man and Gi-hun.

"Hey, old man. Did you stay up all night?" Gi-hun spoke. The old man chuckled. He was smiling. "I thought they would attack again or something."

"Old man, but you must be so exhausted already."

The old man sighed. "It's all right. You don't really need that much sleep when you're old. And I didn't help when they went after everyone but keeping night watch, well, I can do that."

My eyes were met with Saebyeok's. "How did you sleep?" she asked me. I didnt answer. "You were yelling in your sleep."

"Something about running away from someone" I turned my head. 

"Yeah I had a bad dream that's all" 

"Attention, players. The third game will begin momentarily. Please follow the staff's instructions and swiftly make your way towards the game hall. Let me repeat the instructions. The third game will begin momentarily"

I looked up to the prize money. That was a shit load of cash.

We walked into the third game. A white room. I wonder what the game could be?

"𝐏𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐰𝐞𝐥𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐫𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞. 𝐅𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐠𝐚𝐦𝐞, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬. 𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐲𝐞𝐫𝐬, 𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐝𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐥𝐞. 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬. 𝐓𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐮𝐭𝐞𝐬.

"Something that has teams of ten players," Gi-hun repeated.  "So maybe it's Tail Tag or Why Did You Come to My House?"

I knew those games. Wren told me about them before. (Wren is your little sister btw. I forgot to mention before)

"Tail Tag means running is involved. Or it might just end up being simply based on luck. What do you think?" Gi-hun inhaled.

"Our team already has two girls and an older guy. I'm thinking we better get more men first." Sang-woo breathed. I didnt trust him. There was something i just didnt like about him.
