Alex's POV
I know it's not only me with the thought crossing my mind. Jerry thought of it right, killing to win? I never thought I'd be a murderer, I've always thought I'd save lives rather than take them. To think though, Jerry... Already killed a man. Even by accident, so hell to it! We need to win. I looked over to Jerry, his eyes were blinking slower by each second. I knew he was tired, when he was asleep I took a long stare at the ceiling scared of what may happen the next day. Jerry had a cute sleeping face, almost like an angel. I know we can win this game.
~~~~~~morning/ third person POV
Alex and Jerry awoke, Alex was still tired because she didn't get much sleep. All Alex thought about was murder, she is afraid of it. How it may change her, she doesn't know. She looked over at Jerry, he had a smile and he looked into Alex's eyes. Alex smiled too happy that Jerry was in a good mood. Then she started to remember. Oh. I kissed him.
Jerry's POV
Alex looked back at me with a smile. Did she like the kiss too? I literally have no experience so, I'm lost here. Alex leaned over closer to me, like on top of me! My face grew hot and I could feel myself blushing. Then all you could hear was the old man's footsteps coming closer to the door.
Boom Boom Boom
The man's footsteps were so loud they sounded like gunshots. I swear to it though, you could even hear his shoes digging into the floor. Alex looked up at me with a tear rolling out of her right eye and she kissed my lips. Not as romantic as last time, but we may die today so even I couldn't look at her shocked. I was more shocked about death literally walking my way. The door flew open, the door swung to the other side of the wall. There were indentations in the wall from the door handle. The older man looked at me and Alex and grabbed rope from his back pocket. I gulped at the sight of it and my throat grew soar and he moved closer to me and Alex. The older man grabbed Alex's arm with less strength and anger than the last time, I'm happy for that. He took both of Alex's hands into his left and swung the rope around with his right. He had very large hands, Alex didn't look scared, nor shocked. It was like... She was getting used to it, being tied together and treated like running mice. That's not a good thing, I'm still a little shook up by the man who I killed, with no name. "Daddy! Ahh! What did you do?! Dad!?" The memory started to flood back into me and the flood leaked out of my eye sockets. Alex looked at me with worry and looked away. When the older man was finished tying Alex's hands he moved to tying mine. It didn't look as easy for him to hold both my hands into his one. I looked down at him with anger and I wanted to rip him into pieces. Though I knew I wouldn't be able to beat him, he'd probably kill me. He finished, then tied my left foot to her left and my right to hers. He gave me a long stare through his cow mask, and the cow looked pretty creepy on him. He broke the glare and walked around me and Alex and yanked the rope, almost making me tripped over. Alex didn't, she stood there strong and began walking at his order. She looked over at me and saw concern in my eyes and she smiled to me. We stopped to one of the players doors and continued.
~~~~~~
The older man rounded up all the players for the game and shoved them into the room, making me fall onto the floor. The man untied all of our rope and began speaking, the same words as last time.
"Let the game begin!" The man yelled. His voice was a little suppressed from the mask. I pulled out an or rather card and read it. Alex did the same. Mine said 'take a knife to the girl on the right' I looked over... There was a male on my right though... I took a bold step and started to walk towards the older man in the cow mask.
"I g..got this c..c..card and there...is..isn't a girl beside m..me." I said and instantly began to turn red from pure embarrassment. The older man looked me into my eyes like I was stupid and pointed at the closest girl to my right.
"No!"
Alex's POV 10 minuets earlier--
I read my or rather card and it wasn't too bad... I don't think it could kill anyone. 'Get the shock machine, shock whoever you please' I walked over to the box of mystery and went threw the box for quite a while. I couldn't find the machine, so I poured out most of the box... There were many torturey looking items inside. I grabbed the electric machine and walked quickly away from it. My stomps were loud and I accidentally ran into a women. Her blue eyes grew large and she swung a hit towards me and I instantly, out of instinct... Kicked her in the throat. I ran away and plugged the cord of the machine into the wall. The man was a bit young... He put up a fight, but Jerry helped me tie him down. I put the sticky circle pads onto his chess and hit the lowest voltage. The man almost jumped out of his chair and I felt bad. It couldn't have hurt him too bad. The man's head landed on the table and white foam poured out of his mouth. Oh my god! This is the fucking lowest setting?! Jerry and checked his heartbeat. It wasn't there. I untied him quick and tried doing CPR and it wasn't working. I put my finger under his nose and felt no breathing. I did a couple pumps and lifted his head, then blew air into his mouth. He didn't get up. I did this over 3x and it didn't work, I stopped. I looked at Jerry, tears began to form and he swooped in for a hug. The man was dead, I killed him.
Jerry's POV 10 minutes later, resumed~~
I looked over to my right seeing Alex sitting there still crying over the man she accidentally shocked to death. I mean it wasn't her fault, it was probably rigged. The old man probably made even the lowest voltage high.
"No!" I screamed into the older man's ear. He looked at me with wide eyes, like my father would if I yelled at him. The sides of his face grew red with anger and he grabbed my neck. The older man's grip got stronger and stronger and I couldn't breathe.
"If you won't, I will." He said it a casual voice and let go of my throat. I was gasping for air and I couldn't breathe.
I can't let this happen, not to Alex.
