"Yo."
"Wake up."
I slowly open my eyes and my vision comes into focus. The sun is just rising and Juyeon and Eric are standing, looking down at me.
"Hm?" I ask, slowly remembering where I am.
"Um, Soren," Changmin says. "y-your head,"
I sit up abruptly when I realize I'm leaning on him. "Sorry!"
"I-it's okay," He says.
"Well did you guys have a fun night?" Eric grins widely.
"No..." I say looking to my right where Sunwoo ducks under the cave entrance with a box in his hands.
"Oh yeah, I was telling my heart felt story and I look over, and she's asleep!" Changmin stretches his arms.
"I'm so sorry, it was really interesting, really," I say quickly. "your voice was just too relaxing to listen to so I fell asleep."
"jesus," Sunwoo say suddenly, "Do you two ever stop talking? I couldn't sleep last night because of you guys."
"Let them breathe" Juyeon says.
"Okay team, let's get together," Changmin stands up and we all circle around. Sunwoo tosses him the box. "What's this?"
Sunwoo shrugs.
Changmin opens it and takes out 6 pills. "Someone get the tablet," he says.
Kevin turns it on and reads the message: "Food capsules," He says.
"Capsules?" Eric asks. "Like pills?"
"Food pills?" Sunwoo asks.
"You've never heard of these?" Kevin asks. "They started selling mass productions of these illegally in the lowest factions because it would eventually cost less than food and making meals. Apparently it has the same nutritional values"
"Aren't you in 8th?" I ask. "They sell these everywhere in that faction."
"I know." Sunwoo says. "I just woke up, let my brain work for a bit would you?"
"If you say so," I narrow my eyes at him.
"Anyways," Changmin says. "Everyone take one and pass it." he says and brings the box around to each of us.
"So what's the plan today?" Eric asks.
Changmin pulls up the map. "Woah. 21 eliminated already."
"21??" Kevin exclaims. "How is that possible? We've been here for one day! That's like three teams gone already,"
"Keep shouting like that and we'll be next." Juyeon says. "it's a blood bath out there."
