*Megans p.o.v*
"Whats going on?" I asked as Kyle and Dani both entered the room.
"They are on our side." The man smirked as he wrapped both his arms around them.
What?
This didnt make sense?
Maybe Dani, but Kyle?
How could he ever side with someone so evil? He was always a good kid, even when we were little.
"Heres one who choose life." I heard another man say as Emily entered the room.
"Megan!" She screamed as she raced over towards me.
"Your okay." She whispered into my shoulder as she tightly hugged me.
I whinced at the pain I felt, but decided to hug her back.
"Your okay right?"
"Yeah, but lets see what these nim-rods have to say about Kyle ans Dani here being on their side."
Emily looked as confussed as I did.
She walked up to Kyle, gave him a scrunched up confussed look and asked him why.
*Dans p.o.v*
"My familys dead. Where is my group!" I hissed out again since he didnt want to answer me the first time.
I turned to see my family slowly fading away.
"You choose life." Was all the man said before he straightened out his suit the best he could and made his way over to the door.
"Follow me."
Something about this whole thing just made me wonder if it was real or not. Why would they let us choose whether we lived or not? Its strange and unusal I thought to myself as he stopped in front of another door.
"Your group might be in there." He told me as he walked away.
At first I didnt enter through that door. Anything could be behind it and I didnt want to open it to find death staring me dead in the eyes.
I took a deep breath, "For Megan." I whispered out as my hand landed on the knob. I slowly opened the door to find Kyle, Dani, Emily, Megan, a guy I have never seen before and some random man in a tux.
"Well hello, another one who wants to live. Come sit with us." The man in the suit said as he pulled up another plastic lawn chair.
"Whats uh- whats going on?" I asked as I took the mans polite offer and say down next to Megan.
"I just explained it to everyone here. I'll make is short and simple though for you. You either choose to live or die. But everyone cannot live. The last person to choose will die if everyone else chooses to live." He quickly explained.
"Dont you think thats a bit harsh?" I asked.
He looked at me like I had 10 head, "Of course not silly.
I felt Megans hand land upon mine and gave it a sqeeze. Probably telling me to stop asking questions.
I gave in and sat back in my chair as I held onto her hand tightly.
Fuck. I wander who will choose death.
*Megans p.o.v*
The man sat us all down in plastic chairs and told us the entire story, about how he was death himself, Kyle and Dani helped plant this idea inside of his head. Only so he could play a sick game with us.
I heard the door creak open, and when I saw Dans face I became relieved. I had Emily and Dan, hopefully Smidge was the next one to walk through that door because I was closest to her since before all of this happened.
Mason tried to rape me, Isabella I havent known for long but she did help us out of many sticky situations, and Jessica almost killed Samantha. No heart feelings, but I was rooting for Samantha.
*Masons p.o.v*
"Ow." I complained as I felt the back of my head for any lumps or blood.
I didnt feel anything, and no blood stuck onto my fingers.
"Hello?" I called out to a room that echoed from wall to wall.
"Anyone here?"
"Yes over here." a familiar voice emerged out of the darkness.
"Ryan? Is that you?" I questioned as tears began to form in the corner of my eyes.
A creaking noise suddenly erupted and a bright sunlight shone in throughout the room.
A man in black stood next to me as he smiled evily in my direction.
"Hello Mason, where going to ask you a few questions. Please respond truthfully."
I nodded my head towards him letting him know I understood.
"How old were you when this outbreak started?"
"Twelve." I answered.
"Good, good. Did you ever try to rape or kill anyone before."
Shit these questions escaladed quickly. I wanted to lie, tell him no but I truthfully tried to rape Megan.
"I havent killed anyone." I spoke out.
"Rape?" He asked me again.
My lips curled inwards as I slowly shook my head up and down, disappointed in myself for what I had done.
The man seemed to understand my pain, "Theres someone who would like to say hi."
He turned his head towards the light and standing there was my little brother Ryan.
"Mason, I miss you so much."
