Right now, i'm in the car on the way to my next game. I drift off looking out the window, it looks so pretty outside, the sun is setting soon and it's cloudy. I think to myself beginning to think about everything before the borderlands again.

I think that sometimes I like the way it is now but at the same time i wish it would go back to normal. Before the borderlands I was on my way to becoming a forensic scientist, I guess you could say it's just about the only thing I enjoyed doing.

As for my social status, I never really had many friends, I enjoyed being alone but even when I was alone I was never actually alone, I would still be with the thoughts that I would always wish would just disappear, like why can't I just shut them out?

Maybe in another life I would've liked to have more friends but I was too busy focusing if anyone would like me or not in general, I tried to be perfect all the time. I would break down, stressing about one stupid thing I hated about myself. Then soon after, I realized nobody cares. It was all a waste of time.

Not even my friends cared too much about me, but I knew they were the only friends I would have so I didn't want them to leave, even though they treated me like shit, constantly. I would be so honest with them, I would tell them everything. What would they do? They would spread rumors about me, tell people my secrets, ignore me, leave me out, and they even talked shit about me. I wanted to smash their faces in the lockers when I found out the things they did. I knew I couldn't, I had no one to blame but myself for even trusting them.

When I came to the borderlands, playing my second game, a hearts game, I watched my friends die. How did they die? They trusted me, the game was that you had to have someone tell you what number you got but only everyone else could see it, you couldn't. So I lied to them and told them the wrong number. I don't know why they didn't lie to me, I guess I just got lucky. Of course I was sad for like two seconds, but most of all I felt relieved, I didn't have to worry about them anymore.

Now here I am, surprisingly. I didn't actually think I'd make this far, but I guess a part of me knew I'd make it far too, because I wasn't stupid, no, in fact I had graduated high school in honor classes. Still, I don't like to think too highly of myself because sometimes it's just pure luck and you can't really solve your way out of it, plus I hate narcissistic people.

Anyways, moving on. I had arrived at the game, waiting in the lobby. I begin to look around at all the people in this game. This game is being held at a vacant parking lot building, I'm assuming that it might be a spade game, I'm not sure how to feel about that, I mean, spade games aren't terrible I guess.

I look around and observe everyone around me. I noticed some of the people there are people from The Beach. There's about 16 people, a lot of people seem to be scared, some people are calm about it but one person in particular catches your eye. He seem to be in a white jacket with his hood up. It's hard to see any of his features but I can tell he has dyed blonde hair. I look at him for a few more seconds before I notice him look up, making eye contact but only for a split second as I quickly turn to look somewhere else.

I turn and look at this other girl, she looks like a school girl since she is wearing a school uniform. She reminds me of my friends. She has a bandage on her arm and she looks nervous, her other game must've not turned out that great. I see other people around some people have cuts and someone even has a leg wound, they're definitely going to die.

I sigh as I look up to the sky, just thinking to myself, waiting for the game to start. I begin to think about that guy in the white jacket from a few minutes ago, I feel like I've seen him around The Beach before just not a lot, huh, he must be one of the executives, they're always off somewhere.

I hear a chime, breaking me from my trance.

Two of spades: Tag.

Okay, that's pretty self explanatory. This shouldn't be too hard.

Game Start.

I prepare myself for this game thinking about what to do but then I feel a tap on my shoulder and I look over, It's the school girl. "What are we supposed to do?" She asks. I let out a sigh of annoyance, is she serious? "Just run, it's a game of tag, have you ever played it before?" I reply to her. "Oh, yeah, okay, thanks!"
She smiles. I give her a smile back and turn around,  thinking to myself the girl seems nice but I don't pity her, it really does no good to feel bad for other people in these games. I start walking to the building at first to save up my stamina.

Game Clear.

After about 20 painfully boring minutes, the game has been cleared. I walk back to where the lobby was to see the people lived, I don't see the school girl down here so assuming the worst, she's probably dead. I turn my head making eye contact with the blonde again. So, someone that did make it though is the guy in the white jacket. I turn away looking around once more before I sigh, walking to the car to go back to The Beach.
