The Organ Games Chapter 66
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

"Selfishness, guilt, and to be clear, I would understand if you killed me to save your daughter," Louisiana replied.Texas chuckled in her usual taunting way."But yet here you are pleading for your boyfriend. Are you just stupid or is it the pressure getting to your head?"The words hit Louisiana hard. She was tired of being called the stupid one in the game. She knew what she was doing and, from the bodies on the floor, she thought she was the smartest one in the room. playing two cards and alternating when she needed to."Acer offered us a deal to kill you as a group in exchange for an organ for each of us," she yelled on top of her voice. "If I had not jumped on the wagon and they managed to kill you, what was I going to get out of this?" "You are still stupid. I was offered a deal but I refused to take it in her face. You honestly think if I wanted to kill you all, I wouldn't have done it yesterday?" Texas asked loud enough for all of them to hear.Louisiana only looked away ash

Acer kept calling her boss, who to her disappointment was not picking up. She gave up, frustrated. He was clearly blaming her for the blunder when no one had the right to do so.They were all convinced that the players' failure to kill the insane woman was due to competition. Granting them a deal together had a high chance of success, but the players were simply too stupid to use their heads.To top it off, the players had cornered her with the time debate. It was not her fault that they requested a contract that stipulated they had to carry out a task within 24 hrs. No one had supported her when she was backed into a corner, not the organizers and certainly not her ungrateful boss.She got up and poured herself a glass of scotch, pissed at all of them for trying to flip the disaster on her.At the house, Louisiana had already begun cleaning up the kitchen. First, she dragged Washington to the spare bedroom and placed more bandages on his wound before returning to the kitchen. He was

"How... how did she know my name?" Washington whispered.The other players looked at each other, blank. They remembered telling her their names in the safe room but not Washington's. They had no idea what his name was prior to Texas saying it out. They were also sure Washington had not been down there."I didn't tell anyone what my name was. Then where did she get my name?"Alabama pointed out, "You should be more interested about how she stitched your torn artery than how she got to know your name."Washington could only stare at him without altering a single word.The organizers were also confused as to how she knew his name. If he had not told anyone, then they were in trouble.Her phone rang as she walked into her bedroom, searching for her car keys. She looked at the number and recognized it immediately. It was their leader."Hello, love," she replied."Stop with the stupid games," the man said from the other side of the line. He was calling to pump some sense into her. "I think
