Chapter 3 : The Maze

I parked the red Volkswagen on the side of the road. We all got out and kept looking at one point. The Playground, and now they call it The Maze.

"Are you boys ready" Corey said swinging his bat around.

"I was born ready" i said and smirked.

We started walking to the entrance and a big man stopped us from continuing.

"Can't go in, if you're not on the list" the man said with a deep tone.

"I didn't know this year we had to sign up" Jake said and we all agreed.

"This year the most richest group rented the maze to purge. They bet and a group would be put inside and be killed by another one. It's in the dark,so you'll have to see very good to not get killed." He explained. "Kill or be killed"

"Can you not sign us on the list?" Sam asked. I crossed my arms.

"No,either you leave or you'll be put inside the maze as one of the groups"

"That's bullshit!" I stated. "Just because their rich,doesn't mean they have more privilege.

"Hey! Calm down. Don't come screaming over here or I'll put you in there" he threaten me and i raised a brow.

"Look,you keep messing with me with your bullshit. I'll be the one who's gonna put you in there" I raised my gun to him and he tensed his jaw.

"Let's see about that big boy" he said with a smirk plastered on his face.

"Colby stop" Sam hold me back,putting his hand on my chest. I swallowed and looked deep his eyes.

Stop Colby!

"We got a new sponsored group!" He yelled. We all looked at him confused.

"Guys" Aaron got our attention, making us all turn our heads to see a whole group of men walking towards us.

"What is happening?!" I yelled at the men.

"You didn't walk away. You kept bothering, so i assumed you wanted sponsor all yourself to be in the maze" i felt my heart drop to my stomach.

"Colby!" The blood scream coming from Sam,made me whip my head towards him. Seeing him being dragged away with the others.

"Leave them alone!" I shouted to the asshole in front of me. Suddenly his fist connected with my face, making me stumble back.

"Take him away!" He yelled. Seconds later big hands wrapped around my arms, pulling me to my doom.

•••••

They pushed me inside a big room and locked the door behind me. I groaned softly while massaging my jaw.

"Colby?!" I heard Sam's voice, making my heart skip a beat. "Colby where are you?!"

"I-i'm over here" i stood up and patted my knees. Grabbing the metal bar from the floor,i stumbled my way to a staircase.

"Colby!" This time Corey shouted.

"I'm down here!" I shouted back. A door is pushed open and i looked up. Seeing a blonde headed with a relieved smile.

"There you are" he said and i chuckled softly. I went up the steps and entered. Seeing the rest of the group.

"Where are we?" I asked.

"Where in the playground,the purging  game hasn't started yet" Aaron explained and i nodded.

I walked to a corner and sat down on the floor. Bringing my knees up to my chest. Feeling mix emotions running trough my vains.

Stop Colby,stop!

I clenched my fists,till my knuckles turned white. I breathed heavily and felt my chest tightened.

"Colby? Are you okay?" Sam's voice beamed in my head making me breath much faster. I shaked my head quickly. I felt is presence next to me,making a chill run down my spine. "What's wrong?" One of his hands wrapped around my shoulder, making me tense.

"I think I'm having an anxiety attack,but I'm not sure." I ran my hands trough my face and shaked my head. Feeling my body get more relax while Sam's arm is still around my shoulder.

"Just breath gently, it will calm down" he said and patted my shoulder. I nodded and took a deep breath.

"Guys" Jake's voice interrupt us,making us turn our heads towards him.

"What?" I asked, a bit annoyed.

"There's a timer tiking down from 30" he said. I quickly stood up,helping Sam after me.

"What the hell" Corey whispered while we all looked at the timer strike 0. A loud alarm was heard loudly around the room,turning the lights off.

"Shit!" I shouted and a hand gripped mine. Knowing my guts,i knew it was Sam. "Stay next to me" i whispered for only him. I felt his grip tighten.

"Always" he whispered back.

There's no going back for this Colby.

I already know.

I pulled Sam to me and hugged him. He immediately hugged me back,sensing he was smiling on my chest,he pulled apart and i didn't think twice. Kissing his cheek quickly.

I felt my cheeks heat up,but a smile still appearing on my face.

"Let's kill these assholes" i said and he chuckled.
