I sigh and roll my eyes before lining up together with them, I just want us to get this over with."The timer starts now!"The whole field went chaos as the bell rang and all of them run towards the field.I held my dagger and swing it around my finger."What're we waiting for leader? Let's go and dive in the crowd"Leo said while just looking at our leader who's seems glued on where she's standing, can we just leave this woman behind? Tsk.She blink and gulp."Eh? Don't tell me you're afraid?"She cleared her throat and glared at me."I won't volunteer as the team leader if I'm coward"She said proudly."Oh yeah? Then go lead the way, the time is ticking leader~''She pointed herself." Me? "" Yeah, you are our leader right? Then go and lead in front of us, we'll follow your step"Sanzu said, he seems unbothered that we were already left behind by the other teams. She seems hesitant, come on the other teams are already on the field while we're just here standing in circle looking l
Third person's point of view~"Where's Vanillope?!"Sanzu quickly asked when he saw Micah and the others but there's no Vanillope.Leo let go of Micah as she started struggling."Let me go! Let me go! Sanzu please save Vanillope! She's there's facing two huge men! They might kill her!""What?! Why did you left her behind?!""Isn't that what you said though? Only focus on getting the flag? And besides she's the one who wants to sacrifice herself, let's just be thankful and start moving"Their leader said which annoys the three of them, Sanzu want to answer her but he chose to ignore and started walking."I'll go help her, you four go and get the flag, we'll catch up later"He was about to run but Leo and their leader hold his wrist."Are you out of your mind?! No! Let's focus on the flag! Why are you all so concern with her?! You should be more concern with me because I'm your leader! What if I'll die?! Who will lead you?!"She started ranting but they just ignored her while Sanzu shov
"Leo, Sanzu please I'm begging you, let's go back! I cannot leave Vanillope right there!"Micah has been begging them." You should beg me instead girly, I'm the one who's holding the sail "" You bitch! "Micah was about to grab her hair when the whole pool moved and little by little the land from where they're from collapsed.It is as if the whole world fell upon Micah's shoulder seeing as the other players who're still on the ground scream and ask for help while they fall together with the ground, it didn't take a long time before the whole ground vanished.They were silent for a moment until their 'leader' decided to annoy them more." See? No point crying, what about you just help sailing, you'll be more helpful""Just shut the fuck up, okay?"All of them look at Sanzu who's still looking at the ground, it's their first time hearing them like that, even Leo were shock but he then smirk after wards."Come on, even you were upset because of that girl? Why? Why are you all so worrie
I'm glad I finally reunited with them, I can work on my own but I can't abandon them, we're teammates for a reason.We are walking fastly, our goal is on our flag, all of us only have an eye for the flag except for someone, Micah's holding my hands while walking, she's still keeps on looking at our back, specifically someone on our back, it's the girl. We agreed to put everything aside but the tension is still covering us, no one's talking, they don't even look at each other.I'm not that heartless, I feel sorry for Micah and that one girl, Micah act impulsively and pushed that leader of ours because of her anger because they thought that I'm gone while that one girl was stunned and just watched her sister drown on that deep pool unable to do anything because of fear.I'm not lying earlier though when I said I'm planning to kill that girl, she irritates me that I want her to die but I don't want her to die that way, I don't also wanna put burden on Micah's back, I want her to stand on
"Thankfully we're finally on the final phase"Now there's only one thing we need to pass in order to reach the pole where our flag is."So… we need to use this pole in order to go there?"Leo said and pointed the pole, there's a hollow in front of us, we couldn't even see below because of the darkness but one thing's for sure, we're dead if we fall.There are only poles that connects us to where our flag is.I guess they want us to be something like acrobatic and do our best to hold onto the pole until we reach the end.We looked at Micah when he told Sanzu and Leo to step aside, she hold the pole with her two arms."Wait… you're going first?!"Leo surprisedly asked, well, it's our first time seeing Micah on the lead.Micah rolled her eyes heavenly and smirk."I'm a former pole dancer, this is just a piece of cake, watch me"Just like she said we watched as she hold the pole and then next she raised her feet and intertwined her legs around the pole, she started moving towards the othe
We already reached the other end, we're standing in front of the pole, all we need to go is climbed it and get our flag but no one's moving, no one's saying anything, we're just staring at the ground, thinking of what just happened, I can saw sadness on Micah's eyes.Truth to be told even though I consider Leo as our enemies I still can't help but recall how he helped us a lot of times, how he jumped in to rescue us together with Sanzu, we always threatened each other but I never really thought of killing him,*sigh* if I knew he'll end up like this I should've been the one who killed him, at least that way I'll gain points, his death won't be useless… kidding aside, there's also heaviness inside me, guess even if we don't have that much encounter I still appreciate his presence.Now it's finally, it's a game over for the smug and playful Leo, may he rest in peace."Okay players, you only have one minute left! Make sure you reach your flag before the time's up!"Sanzu stood up from sit
"Are you alright?"I asked Micah after she sat down on the ground.Good thing they give us a whole day to relax, I was so exhausted, I experienced hell for almost the whole day, damn this maze."Yeah, I just wanna rest a little" We really need that, I'm sure she's exhausted physically and mentally.I can't help but to look at my surroundings, I can feel an eye staring at me, the familiar feelings I had before we're coming back to me and my heart is longing… .*sigh* Maybe this is just because of tiredness, I should sleep a little.~I woke up when I felt someone poking my cheeks, I rub my eyes and look at the person who disturb me from my good sleep and well who did I expected it to be?"Why did you wake me up?"I said in a horse voice, I wanna rest more.Micah pointed the sky, it's already dark. It explains why my stomach already growls."The speaker said that the kill and wish event will start at exactly 12 am, they said we can already go out of here and go back to the wild, I think
I slightly open my eyes when I felt something hot touching my skin."W-what's that?"I asked in a low voice."I used my one spare shirt and deep it on the boiling water, it's like a hot compress in order to lower your fever, we don't have any medicine so I hope this will help"She said but I'm like on the top of ecstasy, I can only hear a few words."Didn't your mother use this method before every time you have a fever?"She asked and I just simply shrugged my head.It's been awhile since I had a fever but no one's there to take care of me except of my younger brother, I just sleep and let my fever go away, well I never experienced it in a worse case scenario so it's fine."Keep resting, I'll guard the surroundings"I chuckled lightly."Can you really?"I can't see but I heard her 'hmp'."Of course! I'm good when it comes to protecting my friends"What could you possibly achieve if you protect someone? Can you even guarantee that if you protect them they'll do the same to you?~Micah
