Kumiko clenched her fist for the games set by Metropolitan Dominion to start. Looking back at the people she was assigned with, a feeling creeped inside her. She thought of most of them being useless. Her judgment was built on people's ability to fight for themselves, it was not for strength nor intelligence, not speed and not power, all she would judge someone by would be their ability to fight. And by that she rendered most of them worthless.
She looked around the steel room, this time a larger one than the one she previously was. There also was the intercom and a black door in front of them. The lights coming from the corners of the room made no shadow appear.
It was then that the machine responsible for the games moving smoothly spoke to the group.
-MD- «Hello players. For your first challenge of the games I have given each and every one of you a watch. Look into your pockets!»
Kumiko and everyone in the room placed a hand in their pockets the moment the intercom said so. They all found a watch inside there. Its hands were all in number 12 and were not moving.
-MD- «Allow me to explain your first game players!»
-Kumiko- «Shut the fuck up with you calling us players you weirdo that sounds childish as fuck, go eat shit you piece of garbage!»
The intercom fully ignoring what Kumiko had to say kept going.
-MD- «This door in front of you can be opened at any time! You can enter at the first ten minutes or you may enter in hours! The later you join the easier and simpler the task at hand will be. The sooner you enter the task at hand may just KILL you! No violence is allowed between each other, if you do so there will be a penalty depending on the damage you will cause! Please choose the time you will enter through the door together!»
Shig turned to Kumiko and poked her cheek.
-Shig- «Hey... can I... maybe... have you give your watch?»
-Kumiko H- «Why where the ever living fuck did you put yours?»
-Shig- «I ate mine. But I promise it was an accident»
-Kumiko H- «Oh yeah that's not going to be a problem. I'll help ya out. By the way did you swallow it whole or?»
-Shig- «Whole»
-Kumiko H- «That's good to know. You dumb fuck»
Kumiko would use this as a chance to take Shig off guard and punch him in the stomach really hard. By instinct he clenched his abdomen but still threw up on the ground and the watch also came out.
-Yukiko- «How did he swallow something that big?»
-Midori- «That's what you're curious about?»
-Akane- «I'm locked in a room with a bunch of maniacs... let me be saved...»
Shig held his stomach groaning in pain.
-MD- «BING BING. VIOLENCE WAS USED AGAINST PLAYER TOMA SHIG BY PLAYER HAGATSUMA KUMIKO OUTSIDE OF A MATCH. PENALTY IS TEMPORARY CONFISCATION OF THE SERPENT ABILITY!»
-Kumiko H- «What the fuck are you talking about!»
Something stabbing her from below. It came from the floor. A small needle. Kumiko had a liquid injected into her and she felt a bit weakened for the time being.
-Kumiko H- «What the. What the fuck did you do shitty intercom!»
-MD- «With the help of Itoh-Sama and the sealed we have a liquid that temporarily wrecks your ability! Penalty for vioalbce is the temporary loss of one's ability!»
