The Killing Games

EP6: A Knife To A Gunfight Part Two

"Hello there everyone, welcome back to the Killing Games. If you werent tuned in last episode you must be living under a rock! You missed a very thrilling episode, but stay here! It will only get better from here on out, as the house continues to compete for their live's."

"Wade, of the Red team and Blue Team member Adam, have scored the lowest in our team challenge. We had alot of fun indeed. So in this episode who will be defeated in Judegement? And who will get to live to fight for yet another day?"

                    Adam's POV

"Ah... Aaahhh..." I grunted, wincing through gritted teeth. A stream of red mixed with water. I was in the shower, the water drizzling over my wounded flesh. Five dime size holes marking my body. My fresh blood and the water circled around the faucet drain, dancing and interacting before washing down.

I groaned out as quivering grunts vibrated though the echoed bathroom. My wounds crying out as the warm water hit.

Two wounds at my chest, one on my front leg, one on my back, and the last marked my shoulder. My shoulder blade stung sharply if I moved. This was all the doings of Wade.

It hadn't yet settled in my mind that Wade and I, would be fighting to the death until Justine barged in while I was washing.

"He was like a psycho, he just kept coming closer and shooting! But you didn't back down either." Justine narrated the story. Talking to me as if I weren't there when the hole scene went down. He started the story from beginning, to end even doing reenactments.

"You cannot loose!" He told me as I emerge from the shower. Wrapping a towel over myself the wounds ached, every move I made a curse.

"I..I don't want to talk about this." I finally said. I didn't want to think about killing anyone. Murder was a sin. Something that is of evil and would send me straight to hell,  as my religion says."Well you'll have to, the day you have to go against him are narrowing." Echoed the voice of Justine.

"Listen.." Justine paused infront of me. His tone serious as he always does when he 'pep talked' someone. I sighed not wanting to hear any of it.

"When you take Wade down, that leaves the Red Team with three members AND their strongest trooper gone. You MUST beat him." Justine whispered, sounding almost too desperate.

"What else could you do?" Justine sternly asked. Glancing around the bathroom as if no other option.

I walked passed him. Obviously, not in the mood to talk. I opened the door and exited the bathroom when I caught Claire standing there. She clearly had been listening to our conversation. Claire broke away and began strutting off, forcing herself to seem casual.

I didn't know what I would do, many ideas did soar through my mind.

I know what I must do...

                    Claire's POV

"Just watch your back." Was the last advice I offered Wade. I told him the conversation I just heard coming from Justine and Adam.

Justine was clearly threatened by Wade. Now it all began to make sense.
Even though I was now on the Blue Team, Wade and also Jenna were still my friends. I would tell them the topics I could if it involved them. I knew they would do the same, If the roles were reversed.

"I always do." Wade replied to me with a cocky grin. He took this news with a grain of salt. Not having much to say. He was always like this so I wasn't expecting much.

I just wanted them to be safe. Wade and Jenna were both cool and thoughtful people. It saddens me that Wade will now have to fight for his life. Somehow, I couldn't shake the feeling that he would come out on top.
