Galatea Liviana. A fairly pretty young lady. Her life took a turn when her parents passed away in a car accident just a week before she graduated college. Some of her college friends tried reaching her, but in the mist of sorrowness, she pushed them away.

If that wasn't bad enough, Galatea's own savings combined with all property she inherited from her parents were not enough to pay off shark loans her parents left for her.

Until she finds a higher job than outsource freelance programmer which she probably won't, there's no way she'll be able to clear all that debt.

What about her love life? Forget it. Her history with men isn't pleasing. Besides, romance most of the time is a headache, waste of energy.

It was a Saturday evening. The first week of Winter. Galatea is currently out at the streets, simply taking a stroll and enjoying the weather. This part of the town is specially quiet, yet safe.

Mist forming as she exhaled. Her hands tucked in the pockets of her white bulky jacket. Clouded sky. The only thing missing is snow. Times like these Galatea could forget about her burdens. Even for a little while.

On her way home, she noticed a few men in front of her house. Probably here to collect the debt. Galatea let out a heavy sigh before bravely approaching them.

That's all she could recall.

The poor girl stirred awake with a mild headache, struggling to comprehend the situation for a good while until the dizziness subsided. The conversation with those guys didn't go well it seems.

"Nngh..."

Galatea opened her eyes, finding herself in what seems like an abandoned building. Out the window shows the view of a wrecked abandoned town. Across the room lies an unconcious stranger.

Took her long enough to notice a piece of paper in her hand. Appearantly, she's in some kind of a hunger game. Everyone is in the same situation as her. Weapons can be found in town. Last duo standing gets freedom.

"What nonesense in hell is this?" Galatea exclaimed while holding her head.
