ch 9 miri pov i woke up to the sound of the classical music playing again . my heart was pounding so fast that i could even feel it . i knew this can either be my last day or pull me closer to elena unnie . hands shaking , i walked into the colorful stairs , this time keeping a smile in order to calm my self down . i felt a hand pat . it was elena unnie . she held my hand . "you know, you're actually one of the bravest people here?" i shook my head . no way , i was ? i thanked her but secretly , i still felt anxious and still needed someone with me . well , at least i have unnie . luna pov i headed into the next game . a red carousel was attatched to a field with fifty colored doors on the walls . the pink guard announced, "the next game you will be playing is mingle. each round, after the music stops, a certain number is called . you must head to a room with this certain amount of people . if you fail to find the designated amount of players or fail to find a room , you will be eliminated ." well , this is also ... different . are they doing completely different games this year ? hopefully next game is going to be the same as last year ... i stepped on the carousel with my friends : ivy , cat , koh , and yoona . we made an amazing team right ? together we will stop the games ! the catchy and playful song round and round started playing and even my heart was pounding with anxiety . suddenly , the music stopped . 10 was called . i decided just to go with my ally elena , but we were one short . ah , elena saves player 044 , the shaman lady named jasmine . once we finally got in a room , jasmine stares at yoona and sees her belly . she then stares at me . with a menacing and daring stare , she announced , "well, you right here . you came here for this baby in her stomach." she then pointed her daring eyes at yoona . hika pov it was time for the next round . well , in my mind , i was buzzing with excitement , especially with the catchy and vibey music playing in the background . i looked at thea . before long , she grabbed my hand and before long we were dancing together to the music . a huge smile grew on my face as we vibed through . but then the music came to a pause . '4' was called . we HAD to kick some out . i wanted to kick that disgusting "nuna" out but it was all up to thea . lia looked at thea with a pleading expression before thea reached her leg out and bam . she fell to the ground . thea screamed , "LIAAAA !! YOU, OUT!" . the four of us : ine that annoying nuna, wonjin the coward girl , thea , and i ran to a room . that annoying coward wonjin said with her usual worried expression, "w-what's going to happen to lia?" i snapped, "SHUT UP, YOU COWARD!" but before long thea was looking out the window . she cried , lia was gone . with a saddened expression , she exclaimed, "NOOO! LIA!" alr i dont have much space so ch 10 is in notes and credits
ch 10 elena pov i HAD to kick that crazy girl out for this . but then , she hit us with a curse before staring menacingly straight into miri's eyes. i knew i had to protect her with all i got . she was the only one who wanted to team up with me in the six legged pentathlon game . had i made the right choice , or did i make a mistake ? i had thought i made the right choice when miri , i and dani passed the third round together . it was the fourth round . miri pov my heart was pounding with nervousness as i stood on the carousel, still thinking about that crazy lady's daring stare into my eyes . suddenly , the music stopped . '6' was called . i followed elena and our group along with a nice pregnant girl named yoona and a cool former marine named koh . when we tried to head into a room , this crazy old man forces us out like we don't belong there . why would he do that ? and so we ran , but suddenly , some random guy touched me and i fell onto the ground . i had lost them . and i hear the voice of elena calling for me . i screamed repeatedly , "unnie." elena tried her best but it was too late . chae closed the door and bam . i was outside and i was doomed . i ran to elena's door . it was too late . a tear dropped from my face before i muttered, "unnie." elena panicked and screamed . she banged the door before shouting my name, "MIRIIIII !!" i let out one last tear before bam . my heart stopped and i took one last breath . the world went dark . elena pov rage filled my whole body as miri collapsed on the ground, lifeless . no. she can't be de@d . finally , the anger and desire for revenge got the best of me and i screamed at chae, "why! why would you do this to me." chae explained, "well, if i hadn't bolted in here, you all would've di3d!" no, no, no. i can't accept it . i could've saved her . i looked around the room . yoona and koh both nodded their heads , reluctantly . they didn't want miri de@d like this either . mi-cha and aezrielle were also grieving . they couldn't see their ally just gone like that , and so couldn't i . i had lost my best friend , and one of my only true ones . i walked out of the room , guilt and grief , all in my head . i wanted to d!3 . when the music stopped and '2' was called , i just stood there . until , someone pulled me in to a room . it was dani . accs mentioned : @ahyeonified , @sojujeong , @c4merha-girll , @_ivyy , @master-of-tides , @yoonaofficial , @jasibonette , @daniiwanii , @chaeryontop , @kawaii_cedar , @your_local_aezrielle , @macaronic_m , @lychiez , @yuorse , @wonseu , @cakelu-
