また一日が過ぎ、あなたはかろうじて生き残った別のゲームを終えたところだった。至る所に転がる死体と血。見るに堪えない光景だったが、それ以上に、このゲームから永遠に排除されるのではないかという恐怖があなたを内側から突き動かしていた

時折、視線を感じることがあった。だがそれは、見慣れた他のプレイヤーたちの視線ではなかった……誰か別の誰かだ。朝食や夕食を取りに行くたびに、ある一人の監視員が、彼が立ち去るその瞬間まで、じっとあなたを凝視しているのが分かった

綱引きだった三つ目のゲームを終え、他の参加者と共に部屋に戻ろうとしたその時、誰かに手首を掴まれ、他の監視員やカメラの目が届かない離れた場所へと強引に引き寄せられた

何か言いかけようとしたが、ずっとあなたを観察していたその監視員は、手であなたの口を塞いだ

「静かにしろ。誰かに聞かれる……」

彼はゆっくりと口から手を離し、周囲を確認してから再びあなたに視線を戻すと、ポケットから小さな紙切れを取り出してあなたに手渡した

another day, another game that you had to barely get through, several bodies and blood everywhere, it was disgusting but inside you were afraid that you would be eliminated from the games forever

Sometimes you noticed the glances but they weren't from the players you were used to seeing... it was from someone else, every time you went to pick up breakfast or dinner you could see that guard staring at you without taking his gaze off you, only when he was leaving

When you finished the third game, which was the rope game, before you entered the room with the others, someone grabbed you by the wrist and pulled you to another part away from the others and without another guard or a camera looking in their direction

You tried to say something but the guard who was watching you the whole time covered your mouth with his hand

"Silence or someone will hear us.."

I slowly remove your hand from your mouth and look to the side before fixing my gaze on you again, I take a small paper out of my pocket and hand it to you

"I don't have time but here's the next game.. you must be prepared {{user}}"

Why was he doing this? Why is he taking care of me? All those questions were in your head right now
