Washington looked at his watch. It was exactly 1 a.m. on Monday. "The game has no time limit," he explained. "I guess we were all in such a hurry to sign the contract that only one person out of fifty noticed that.""What?" The two women asked in unison."We can take a break, rest, and continue where we left off with killing the woman even two days from now."The two women stared at each other and then at him. They did not show any signs of excitement. He could only guess they were waiting for him to call everything a bluff."It's really cold out here, but if I were you, I would be in the house, near my target, striking when they least expected it," he added and walked away.The two ladies were left speechless, staring at his limping figure as he walked into the house and disappeared.New York grabbed onto California's hand. "You honestly do not believe all that nonsense, do you?"California turned to face her."Please tell me you don't! He is obviously her husband, and was sent here

Her boss rubbed his temple, of course, the woman was not stupid. There was supposed to be a strategy to whatever ruins she was doing to the game."Acer, stick to the plan, it is going to work," he replied. He had studied human behavior long enough to know which scenario triggered what in human beings. That was the basis of the games and its long success until they recruited the wrong recruit. However, he still had faith in it"Sir, I am not trying to change the plan. I just wanted to alert you to the fact that she is stalling the game!""To what end?" he inquired."That's what is not making sense. Killing all the players is the fastest and best way out, yet she wants to continue the game that she has been refusing to play."The boss pressed on his lips, "A distraction?" he pointed out."Yes, that is why I insisted on that safe room. Something is up in that room. She is trying to distract us," Acer replied.There was a stretch of silence, with her boss biting his lip. There was a lot o

Phone calls began to pile up in the offices of the organizers. Pledgers were expecting answers. They realized they had been blindsided by some footage. They demanded to see what had not been televised to them and threatened to cancel the games.The big boss remained silent, fuming, as the organizers pressed him to address the situation. He was tired of explaining things to the rich, spoiled psychos who were trying to use every minor issue against him.He was tired, he needed rest. He had been straining and working his back off to ensure that everyone had a perfect game. However, that was not taken into account. The knuckleheads had forgotten how spectacular the games had been the past few days. Not once had he tried to con them or favor players, but not one fool remembered that.He grinded his teeth in irritation, trying hard to calm himself down. He reminded himself of how selfish human beings were. Their reaction was not supposed to surprise him. Selfishness and greed were what he

Acer waited and waited for the call, but it never came. She was confused as to why he would choose to snub her after she had managed to save the game from its crutches of death. The disappointment was all over her face as she tossed the phones away and chose to call it a night even though, where she was, it was only 9 pm.The organizers watched her laughing, she got what she deserved, most of them thought. In as much as she had saved the game, she needed to know her place.Acer did not expect anything much, but a little thank you would have gone a long way. On second thought, she felt he was jealous; she had done a better job than him and he was crying with his tail folded. That was the only explanation that she could come up with. "Stupid meathead," she shrugged to herself as she took one last check on the useless players.Louisiana and Texas had finished eating and were tucking into bed like long-lost sisters. Acer could not stand Louisiana's stupidity. She could not believe she had

Louisiana glanced up at her, her neck aching in pain, "Did you get it out?" She asked "Yes, now put your hair back. You do not want them suspecting foul play" "I do not understand." "Caroline, you don't have to understand anything. What you have to do now is act, or else they'd notice something was wrong." Louisiana's heart kept beating very fast, the revelation was a lot for her to take in at once. Then she remembered the other players "All my god, the other players, we have to tell them," she suggested. Texas held her head in irritation. The woman was not listening to anything that she was saying. "If they no longer want to play the game, then I will get the chips out," she replied and got up. They had spent more than ten minutes in the safe room, it was more hours than she had anticipated. On the other hand, the organizers were impatient and trying to reach the boss, who had taken a small break. He finally returned to his surveillance room and found a lot of messages and m

"You are all fools!" Acer screamed at the top of her voice. As much as she wanted to pump some sense into them, there was no time. She had a short grace period for Texas to walk in on any of them. She was very aware of how the woman was good at sneaking up on people."The biggest fool among all of you is Louisiana, but I will not dwell on that," she spat out as she took a seat. "Let me remind you of the players that would have loved to be in your place, but their bodies are rotting while their loved ones are taking their last breath!"The players stared at each other, with Louisiana swallowing hard."Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Hawaii, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, North Carolina, South Dakota,

In the spare bedroom, Washington quickly washed his face and joined the other players who were panicking. Alabama, who had slept early, was already updated on the situation and the new guests. "Is she gone? Check the door," California insisted. New York quickly checked the outside and found no one. But they all knew how sneaky she was, so she locked the door and stood guard. "This is the only chance we will get. I want to know who is in and who is out!" she asked as she turned. "I am in," Washington replied. There was no need for him to start debating the issue. His stance had been clear the second he was welcomed into the house, and he knew Texas knew it. "Okay, so we are two, anyone else?" New York asked. Alabama cleared his throat, but no word came out. "She has guns," California shivered. "You heard Acer said; she uses knives," New York pointed out. "And arrows," Washington added, and reminded the other two they had no time to waste, they needed to make up their minds. I

Washington grabbed himself a mug cup and asked for the kettle to be passed around. He poured a little and tasted it."This is already warm, I love my coffee hot," he emphasized while staring at Texas. He could see the eagerness in her eyes and did not plan to spill any beans. Not after knowing that she was still in game three and if she killed them, there was a possibility of her finishing up the game.An idea popped up in New York's head at the mention of hot coffee. The longer they took conversing at the table, the more dangerous it was going to turn for them."I can warm the kettle," New York quickly offered.Both Washington and New York stared at her, knowing exactly what she was thinking. She got up and grabbed the kettle, walking straight to the socket that was behind Texas, instead of the one that was on her side.Texas gave a side-eye as she sipped on the coffee. "Tell us, what loop was in the instructions," Louisiana asked."Does it matter? You played the game. Let's just fo
