003(EDITED)

"What in the actual fuck is this?"

We were standing on a dirt field, facing some giant doll at the far end. A big one, too. Like, Godzilla-sized. If that thing stepped forward, we'd be toast.

I eyed it with a raised brow.

Out of everything, they pick a doll? Seriously?

A voice came over the speakers.

"You will be playing Red Light, Green Light. When it says 'Green Light', you may move. When it says 'Red Light', stop immediately and freeze. If you are caught moving during 'Red Light', you will be eliminated. You have five minutes to cross the finish line."

Everyone tensed up. I crouched down into a sprinting stance.

This is where all those years of running from debt collectors comes in handy. Let's go.

I felt someone behind me. Glancing back, I caught him blatantly staring at my ass.

"Oi. Keep staring and I'll make sure you're eliminated."

His eyes shot away fast. Pathetic.

"Green light."

I took off, sprinting hard. I was already way ahead of most of them.

Too easy.

"Red light."

The doll's head twisted all the way around, making an eerie clicking sound.

I froze.

"AYO-WHAT THE FUCK?! HER HEAD DID A FULL TURN."

People nearby stifled laughs.

BANG.

I flinched. Someone screamed.

"Player 324 eliminated."

Eliminated...?

Nah. That wasn't just a buzzword. That was a bullet.

They're not playing.

"Green light."

I started running again, halfway across already.

"Red light."

I stumbled slightly-just a tiny step forward.

I froze, heart pounding.

Shit...

Nothing happened.

I was still standing. Still breathing.

What...?

Then it started. Screaming. Gunshots. People dropping like flies. I looked back-blood. Panic. A literal massacre.

I smirked.

Oh...so this is a death game. Risk your life for money? Better start counting my days.

"Green light."

I sprinted the rest of the way and crossed the line with seconds to spare.

Gasps came from behind. I was one of the first.

I turned around and watched. Some people were stuck at the halfway mark.

Only three minutes left.

"Red light."

Six more people went down.

I turned away from the field and walked toward two of the masked guards standing nearby.

"Question."

They didn't move.

"Why wasn't I shot? I moved. Not much, but I did."

No response. Just a glance between them.

They know something.

I stepped closer, arms crossed.

Then, maybe just to mess with them, I rested my hand on one of their shoulders.

He didn't react.

So I pushed it a bit. Let my hand trail lower-not seriously, but enough to test him. That's when he grabbed my wrist, hard.

"Player 069. Step back."

I yanked my hand free and leaned in just enough to whisper, "You're not good at hiding things. I can tell."

His body tensed, but he said nothing.

I turned and walked away with a smirk.

By now, most of the players had made it across. Only a few seconds left.

"Y/N! There you are!"

Gi-hun jogged over with the foreign guy in tow.

"This is Ali," he said. "Ali, this is Y/N."

We shook hands. Ali gave me a kind smile.

"I saw what you did with that guard..." Gi-hun muttered. He sounded...annoyed?

I shrugged. "Just wanted answers. Thought a little charm might loosen him up."

"Y/N...why would you do that?" Ali asked, confused.

"Because I moved during red light-and didn't get shot." I pointed back at the blood-stained field. "That blonde guy moved too. He's dead. I should be too."

Ali looked stunned. "Maybe the system didn't detect it?"

Gi-hun chimed in. "Could've been. There was many people moving at once-maybe you slipped through."

I shook my head. "I was the only one who moved. Besides him. That's not a glitch. That's intentional."

"Well done, players. Return to the main room. Follow the staff."

We started walking.

Then I saw him.

My eyes locked onto a familiar face in the crowd.

"You." I stepped forward, angry at the sight of him. "YOU FUCKING BASTARD!"

I ran up and punched him square in the face. He stumbled and dropped to the ground.

Everyone turned to look-even the guards. But none of them moved.

He looked up at me, eyes wide with realization.

I smirked. "Yeah. It's me. How'd that feel, Sang-woo?"
