Alice in Borderland X Reader

Hey guys, I'm still not sure how I should make the story go with all the splitting up so I decided this chapter will just be all of them finding supplies and stuff like they did in the series/manga/anime ext. I hope you enjoy and don't forget, don't be a silent reader!

Y/NS POV
I heard Arisu come back into the mall area, hearing that he didn't find anything useful outside except mouldy vegetables, that made me frown a little as my bag with supplies was scorched to pieces. "Just keep looking to find things useful here with us" Karube replied to him.

"Just as I thought all the IC chips have been destroyed." Chōta sighed, "No cameras, phones, TVs, or anything that operates with an electronic board won't work." He continued. "But old stuff like this will." I finished off his sentence picking up an old radio next to me. I passed it to Chōta who began to talk about how an electronic magnetic pulse attack could have appeared. "So, why is this working?" Arisu questioned, looking at the phone. It turned off straight after with no turning back on "it's completely useless if we can't charge it." He threw the phone.

Later on in the afternoon everyone was listening to the old calm music on the radio and scoffing their face with food. "We haven't eaten anything since yesterday!" Chōta smiled. I looked awkwardly at the floor knowing full damn well I was filling myself up with food I had packed in my bag during the game yesterday so I wasn't that hungry.

"What were you guys doing when everyone disappeared?" Shibuki asked. I looked over at her, it was a good question I thought to myself. "Bathroom" Karube replied still chewing on his food. "We were in the same stall." Chōta added on. I looked at them with a raised eyebrow "Why were you all in the same stall?" With no reply Karube just brushed it off and asked "Where were you two?" Looking at me and Shibuki. The business woman stopped for a minute next to me and made a strange glance then finally came up with her reply "I was at work, in the conference room doing paper work." I didn't believe that for a second but I'm guessing she was uncomfortable with what she was actually doing.

All eyes were on me, as if they were waiting for my reply "Sleeping." I said whisky playing with a can of tinned pineapple slices. "It was like the afternoon, you were sleeping that late in?" Chōta asked with a laugh, Karube smiled at me "I bet that was a shock to wake up to nothing." I nodded and thought back to my puppy Bo. I hope she is okay without me..

"How did you realise what happened, did you see anything weird?" I looked back up to Arisu who was glancing at the two of us in curiosity. "Not really, I arrived here three days ago and I was forced into these games like you were. Everyone died except me." She looked down at the table.

I couldn't help thinking why she arrived earlier than everyone else. "You mean you used them as bait right?" Karube leaned forward. "Think whatever you want! All I wanted was to survive." She replied. The room fell silent. That was until I noticed eyes on me.

Karube glanced at me, "And you?" He said with a straight face. I looked at him as if to say 'Are you stupid?' "I was sleeping." I said with a lowered voice, indicating that I already told him this so he didn't need to ask me. He scoffed and leaned back on his chair. "Well," he took a swig of his drink. Arisu looked up at Saori.
(That's Shibuki's first name I think, either first or second because her full name is Saori Shibuki).
"What kind of game was it?" He questioned, no matter what Arisu said he always looked so innocent and sweet whilst saying it. You were never one to get attached to people, but you knew you would be able to get along with Arisu. Which you found strange as he is not a type of person you would normally hang around. He has potential, you know this.

Shibuki began to talk about the game she was involved in, that's when Arisu put his chopsticks down "Huh, how come there was a time difference, it was yesterday for us four, yet for you it was three days ago." He had a point, you were thinking the same thing earlier but you didn't say anything about it. "That's right.." Karube said, he knew Arisu was onto something and you did too. He continued on "Those vegetables I found... They take longer than a day to rot." He questioned his own eyes for a second. "What's going on?"

"Maybe, the speed of time is different from our world." I looked over to Arisu. Shibuki nodded at my sentence as if she was going to say the same thing, "Take the four of us here, the timeline is different when people disappear, like you said." Shibuki finished my sentence.

I didn't like the fact that me and Shibuki were always agreeing with the same things, taking from her personality. She had a point though. "Did we time travel in a subway stall?" Chōta pulled a puzzled face. "Time travel isn't real!" Karube and Chōta started disagreeing with each other.

"One thing is for sure, there is a game master." I raised an eyebrow at Arisu. He was onto things fast, you know why you liked him so much. It was his quick thinking. "So why we were in a bathroom stall they removed everyone from Tokyo and set up these games?" Karube scoffed.

I looked at Arisu, "They keep track of our movements" it was like he read my mind, images of that old aged man from the alley fill my head. He had a point. They put lasers through our head when we make the wrong moves. "It's definitely possible if they were able to add microchips into our brains." Chōta sat up straight at his words and Karube, once again scoffed at this. "You spoke like a real IT geek" he chuckled. You say there in silence and boredom as they all spoke about different theories and rumours.

Chōta began talking about gods doing, and you just stared at him as he made noises of pain. "Is it getting worse?" One of them asked as Chōta began to breathe heavily. He tried to reassure that he would be fine but it was clearly unbelievable.

It became dark and You, Arisu and Karube were talking alone outside. "We should go to a game tomorrow, just us three." Karube looked at me, then back at Arisu. His eyes widened "We still have three days left!?" He questioned. "It's better to get in a game whisky we still have time, I just don't think Chōta will make it through the game, he is in too much pain." He may have sounded a bit selfish but you understood him completely.

Chōtas leg did not look like it would be getting any better soon. "Maybe we can find a doctor, there will be more people playing as well as us.." I finally stepped up, Karube nodded to me. "Yeah, I guess" Arisu finally agreed then continued on whilst talking about the game master's signature.

You could visibly see Karube getting stressed out, he began to breathe louder.

Narrators pov
That night, different areas glowed up the night. Different places, each different games.

The next chapter will definitely be the tag game but I'm still not sure what to 😭 I hope you guys have ideas for me! Thank you for reading this!
