Unknown's game

Chapter 4

         I sat by the corner by Blake, crying my eyes out waiting for Unknown to tell us who dies. But I think it would be better not to know who dies, or if you're going to die. The night was colder than ever, my fingers were numb to the core and I couldn't feel the warmth from my cheeks anymore. All I could hear was my stomach crying and others trying to break the hard cold stone on the wall to find an escape.

Text Message:

Unknown: The one who was chosen was “Bell Boy” I'm surprised that even if he didn't do anything you all wanted him to die. 😱

Stacy: I'm sorry.

Marissa: Me to.

Ralfe: My bad.

Unknown: But theres a catch. Since he wasn't wanted in the first round, he gets to go home!! 👏 👏 👏

Mary: WTF!

Linda: …

Blake: You're kidding me.

You: Omg…

Ralfe: WAIT! WHAT?!?!?!

Unknown: Sorry. 😊😛😊

         Blake started to bang on his side of the wall, saying I hoped I knew. But I didn't mind, if I wanted to get out, I wanted to get out with him. I used my phone's light as a lamp to light up the room, while charging. Seconds later, after Blake was banging on the wall, a small door at the bottom of the wall opened showing more concrete and light. Someone slid a plate with some mashed potatoes, chicken, and peas.

         I stared at the plate for a while till the smell from the chicken reached my nose, tickling it and bringing me closer towards it. My stomach cried even louder, wanting me to eat the delicious smell. My mouth started watering since I didn't get to eat anything this whole day, but I'm scared that saying “bell boy” was chosen, How do I know they didn't choose me?! I was worried that maybe the plate of food had poison.

         At last, I lost my strength trying to resist the food, so I ended up eating it all. After I was done eating I did a couple runs around my so called room to burn off the calories then I laid on the bed. “Good night” a creepy voice spoke alternating from man to woman. I thought I wouldn't be able to sleep for that whole night, but I slept like a duck. When morning came, Unknown would put on a loud alarm on a speaker to wake everyone up. I thought that by the time I woke up, it would all just be a dream and I would be back at my house sleeping, but it wasn't a dream. I woke up to a chain tied on my right foot and a window with bars.

Text Message:

Unknown: Good moriningggg. I hope you had a nice sleep.

You: Screw you, let us out of here!

Blake: What exactly do you want from us?!

Marissa: Unknown, let me help you. Let me out.

Ralfe: Me too, I want to help you torture them.

Stacy: If helping you means getting out of this box, then I want in.

Mary: Same here!

Unknown: Oh, really?

Marissa: Yea

Unknown: If you want to help me then you guys have to play the game.

Ralfe: What?!

James: Oh shit.

Linda: You're still making us your dolls?!

Kate: I want to go home.

Unknown: The next game round is coming up.

You: Please no more.

Unknown: But Herminie, you’ll love this round.

Blake: Leave her alone.

Unknown: Blake and Herminie, you two got to experience the shortest love time ever. But trust me, you’ll love this round.

Asher: Just tell us the game round already

Unknown: You have a chance to pick a person to stay with.

You: Wait, What?!

Marissa: FOR REAL?!

Stacy: What are the rules?

Kate: Yea

James: Picking someone??

Unknown: Yes, the rules will be in the group chat in 20 minutes. In the time being, you have to think of who you want to stay with, and it is only the people in the game. Good luck.

    My heart skipped a beat, I was thinking of staying with Marissa because she was my best friend. I knew she was a bitch sometimes but she was still my best friend ever, I couldn't even go to the mall without Issa. The problem was that I didn’t know if Issa would pick me or not. I was worried. I sat down on the bed, staring at the sunlight shining into my ‘room’, it wasn't big, but it wasn't small. The thought of this box in the dark was actually scarier than seeing it in the daylight. I let the sun shine onto my face, calming me down. Unknown was back again with some breakfast, toast, eggs, and orange juice. The fact that the food here was better than the ones at school, it wasn't so bad. I smiled at the sun, and nodded to myself, knowing who I was going to pick for sure.
