Another day at the casino, things will be a lot different this time. I grabbed my hat and wore it on my head.
"Today's the day.. time for a special invitation, and a day that they'll never ever forget." I said to myself.
I spread cards on the table, that had pictures of my next victims..
The people on the cards were:
Six, Nine, Four, X, Five, Seven, Two, One, Three, Ten, 01100001 01101110 01100100 00100000 01110011 01101111 01101101 01100101 01101000 01101111 01110111 00100000 01101001 00100000 01110011 01101110 01110101 01100011 01101011 00100000 01101001 01101110 00100000 01100001 00100000 01110000 01101001 01100011 01110100 01110101 01110010 01100101 00100000 01101111 01100110 00100000 01101101 01111001 01110011 01100101 01101100 01100110 00101110 00101110 00100000 01000101 01101001 01100111 01101000 01110100 00101110.
Great job at planning this for me... 01000110 01101111 01110101 01110010 01110100 01100101 01100101 01101110.
One by one, they'll all fall...

(8:30 PM)
Six and Nine were on their way to the casino, after receiving an invitation of a 'special' event happening.
"Nine, this is stupid. I mean what's so exciting about this so called 'event' happening at the casino?" said Six, not really a huge fan of betting. "Don't be such a party pooper Sixer! Umm.. the letter didn't really describe much about it. But anyway, you know I can't refuse this invitation!" Nine replied.
"*Sigh* I guess by looking at the stupid outfit you're wearing right now, I guess I'll have to go with you instead." Six shrugged and kept on walking. "Awesome! Thanks Six." said Nine while he puts his arm around her shoulder.
Partners, yet they're basically opposites, one has a weird addiction to betting, and the other wouldn't take a risk to lose money.

(Meanwhile.. At the casino lobby)
Eight, Three, and Ten were the first ones to arrive.
"Hmm, looks like we're the first ones here.. am I right Three?" said Eight while turning his head to look at Three. "Shut up... also, why am I even a part of this? I've got more important stuff to do than this.." Three rolled their eyes.
"Don't try to ruin this for me you little shit... but anyway. I wonder what this event is all about." Eight smirked a bit. "Whatever it is, this better be worth it!" said Three. "Cmon Three, why not wait for what's about to happen til everyone else gets here?" Ten walked towards them.
"Fine, I guess." Three scoffed and stormed off. "Stupid fucking casino event.." They mumbled. "Heh, classic Three.." Eight leaned against the slot machine.
Eight and Ten are both casino workers, Three's only a little helper of theirs.
Six and Nine have finally arrived at the casino. "Woah! This place looks a lot different from before eh? It's got that special magic in the air, don't you think?" said Nine. "Meh, magic or not.. I still think this is a total waste of time." Six frowned while glancing at the lights.
"How great! More company." said Eight while he spun his cane around. "Did you see the look on his face when he walked in? It's like a kid in a candy store." Eight said to Ten, which made them chuckle a bit. "Well, it looks like more people are coming.." said Ten.
But suddenly, someone kicked the door open. It looked like a detective ready to solve some crimes, with an assistant by her side. "You didn't really have to kick the door open y'know Detective Five?" Seven told her.
"Just making sure there's not a single threat in this place, you sure that this is the right place Seven?" Five asked them while blowing their bubble pipe. "Seems like it!" Seven smiled and felt a bit lucky today. (haha get it? /unfunny joke)
A famous detective who's solved many crimes, and her one and only assistant. Still can't figure out why they're even invited to this place.
Nine knew that voice sounded familiar. "Yo Sixer! Isn't that Detective Five from that one tv series you were watching last time?" He nudged Six's shoulder. "Nine, there's no way I'm falling for-" Six then froze in place when they turned around, her eyes were also sparkling.
"Oh my Infinity.. you're right! But, what's she doing here though?" Six was obviously confused. "I don't know, it's not like I know that much about detectives dude-" Nine then noticed that Six wasn't by their side. "Ah fuck.. they've left me here just to talk with Five." He sighed.
(I'm too lazy to put Five, Seven, and Six's interaction so lets just say, they're already close friends 😋)
And then finally, 4 more people arrived and were the last ones to arrive.
Four, X, Two, and One.
One was just busy talking about many stuff to Two. "Alright alright! Could you please just stop with all the yapping already! Besides we're already here One." said Two who was super annoyed. "Ooo! More people, can't wait for the games to begin!" One replied. "And maybe make some special deals with them.." She whispered to herself.
Best pals, a bartender and a former casino host that got fired on her first day. And I think its because of her weird deals.. 😬
"X, I look absolutely... ridiculous. I don't even know why you insisted on this theme." Four felt embarrassed AF. "Relax Four! You look fine, it's only part of the fun!" X replied.
"Yeah but it looks like I just came from a 'halloween costume party'." said Four. "Doesn't look that bad though!-" X gets interrupted by Two. "Hey Four! That pirate outfit isn't complete without a hat and a hook!" They laughed.
"Fuck you!" Four cursed them out. "Looks like we got everyone here, right Ten?" said Eight. "We're missing Three, they stormed off earlier.." Ten sighed.
"Ten, they're only right over there sulking around the corner. But it's fine, I'll settle everyone down first!" Eight cleared his throat.
_____________________________________
"Alright everyone! Settle down for now." He announced. "Now that we're all here, what's all about this special event? This isn't an ordinary night at the casino." Eight puts his cane aside.
"Get to the point already! I can't stand waiting here again." said Three.
"Tonight... we're here for a little game.. the stakes even higher than any of you have ever played!" Eight grinned. "Ooo! What kind of game?" said X. "Mystery solvings.. it's not all about money, little yellow variable." Some people, like Six felt really skeptical about this.
While most of them, like Nine felt intrigued. "Hm, this game should be quite intriguing.. I haven't done any stuff like this in months!" said Five. "See Six! Told ya it was worth it!" She said to Six.
"Oh, shut up..." Six cleared her throat. "Well, Eight. Why don't you spin the roulette wheel so we can get started on this?" Six asked him.
"Sure thing!" Eight held his cane and walked towards the wheel. "Time to spin the roulette!" He placed his cane on the wheel and spun it around. After a few seconds, it finally stopped.
"Hang on, isn't the roulette wheel supposed to be used for-" Two gets cut off by the sudden smoke appearing out of nowhere. "What the-?" Everyone else started coughing from the amount of smoke in the casino, which made them lose consciousness.
"Perfect... all according to the plan..."
