I woke up in a bunk bed, feeling tired and knowing how I got here. I yawned and looked around, trying to figure out how I got in this room. Or this place, just then I heard some arguing. I jumped out of my bed and looked at the center of the room. It was a big guy and a small woman, the girls number was  067. She was hot the big guys number was 101. He grabbed her by the collar

"We meet again don't we?" I walked up to him and pushed the guy off of her, what's wrong with these people?

"You don't hit girls" Just then a guy who's number was 456 came running into the crowd and grabbed 067's arm and slapped her

"You're the pickpocket who stole my money!" The mumbling in the crowd grew, what is wrong with these people?! What is this place?? A mad house? Just then number 101's attention grew to number 456, when number 456 noticed. He started to run around in circles

"Help!" He yelled trying to avoid number 101, he was calling out for help from someone he didn't even know.

"He's going to attack me! He—" Just then a buzzing noise came from somewhere in the room that made everyone shut up. As the doors opened, armed men. In pink jumpsuits, with... boots? A bit of relief washed over me thinking that they were here to stop the fight.

But they weren't

The room falls silent, so silent you could here a pin drop. The people looked exactly like what uncle described, the one with the circle mask steps up closer to the crowed. Then he speaks up

"I would like to extend a heart filled welcome to you all." His voice was scary, non-human. Something is off, like really off. No emotion at all, cold and heartless. Like Lee.. all the memories of Lee and me replayed in my mind.  I know Lee is here, god. It's been so long

"Everyone here will have to participate in six games, over the course of six days. Whoever wins all six games will get a handsome cash prize." I raised an eyebrow, this was all very sketchy. Where the hell was uncle?

"How are we supposed to trust you?" I turned around to see the speaker, it was number 456. I think he was trying to say that this was all too good to be true

"You put us to sleep and take us to this strange place, and take away all our contact to the outside world. Now you're saying that if we play some 'games' you'll give us a cash prize??" There had to be some catch of us winning the money, I already knew though. My father died here, my mission was to win this game and find Lee. Even if I die trying

"We reluctantly took those measures to maintain our confidentiality bringing you here. We shall return everything once the games are over

"What about our confidentiality?" I found myself saying, the room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. I took a second look at the circle guard, I felt like he was peering through my soul

"You wear those masks, yet we have to be identified by our numbers?" My voice was dominating the whole room, all eyes was on me.

"What's going on here? Don't we at least have the right to know?"

"We are not allowed to disclose the faces of our staff to the players" The triangle mask guard speaks up

"Although your identities are kept hidden from the other players. You may not disclose your name unless you choose to. These are measures we take for the fairness and privacy of the game" There was something they wasn't telling us, although there was some answers. Some things still didn't make sense

"I don't trust a word you said" the room grew into silence, straight up silence. I turned towards the speaker, my heart dropped when I seen him. It was Sang-Woo..
