~6 months later~

I grabbed my dark blue suit from the man working, "Thank you!"

I practically ran into the changing room.

Dressed in my garb, I went out and waited with the employee while everyone finished.

It was the first time all 22 of us were able to play all together since our first game.

The employee, Denise, smiled at me, "This clearly isn't your first game."

"Nope, this is my 6th."

Dawn joined us, in pink, and spun around.


Once everyone was ready, they led us off to the individual doors, where each of us walked in.
I smiled when my screen lit up with the red words:

Imposter

I knew what I had to do.

Jack was the other imposter and we were able to communicate with eachother.

It was my second time ever being the imposter in AULAG and I really enjoyed it.

"Jack, when I tell you go, you need to shut the door to security."

I heard Jack laugh. He knew the story well, because I'd sent the chat a long paragraph after Shae asked me why I was mad at Owen for more than half the game.

I found Owen after a few seconds search in the doorway second to the wall, I jogged over to him and grabbed his hand.

We were dating. Nothing suspicious here. Just 2 lovebirds holding hands.

I dragged him into O2, Admin, and lower engine, before deciding I'd faked enough tasks to look somewhat unsuspecting.

I led him into security, Owens favorite place I swear, and he was drawn to the cameras like a moth to a flame.

I didn't even have to fake a task, he just...

"Whatever." I mumbled. "Jack?"

"Yeah?"

"Close the door, now."

I heard him smile, "I'll cover for you."

I tapped Owen on the shoulder as the door closed.

He looked up at me with his beautiful blue eyes.

I reached into my pocket as discreetly as possible while trapping him with my gaze.

He looked confused.

I whispered to him, despite him not being able to hear me, "Revenge tastes like this,"

Then I poured the paint all over his shirt.

I squeezed his hand 3 times, code for "I love you."

And quickly left him.

I opened the imposter door and with a wave, I was gone.

Owens POV:

Adeline was being a little strange, normally when we played together, she'd go off on her own at first, finished her tasks, then she'd come find me.

But she immediately came over and grabbed my hand and dragged me with her as she did tasks.

I wasn't complaining. Any time spent with Adeline was a good time, but it was just...confusing.

I followed her and completed a the tasks that were near where we were.

I wasn't a huge fan of doing tasks, so I was content to just stick with Adeline while she did hers.

When she took me into security, I found myself drawn to the cameras. While Adeline did her task, or whatever she wanted to do, I was content to observe the cams.

That was until Adeline tapped me on the shoulder.

Reluctantly I looked away from the cameras and into my girlfriends eyes.

I supposed she was trying to tell me the door had closed, but I found myself lost in her dark chocolate eyes.

Confused, but loving being able to stare into her eyes, I tried to communicate asking what she needed.

Her eyes took on a mischievous glint, only making me more confused, and then, she mouthed something... So quick I didn't catch what she said.
But then...

She.
Dumped.
Paint.
All.
Over.
My.
Black.
Suit.

She grinned and leaned away. She grabbed my hand and squeezed thrice.

Stunned, in stayed in my seat while she strutted away, pleased with what I knew she was calling revenge for our first game.

She waved to me as she walked through the imposter door.

And I knew while I was staring after her, trying to see through the solid imposter door, that I would marry her someday.

A/N: And that's a wrap. THANK YOU so much if you read this far. I'm going to post one more chapter with their ghost outfits, so if you'd like to check that out (or not, if you want to keep their outfits as what you'd imagined) but other than that, I'm out! Have a nice day, and I hoped you enjoyed.
I'm still thinking about making a sequel, so let me know!
