You & 5 others had somehow gotten tricked into being in an escape room where you ACTUALLY die.

The makers were watching through the cameras, betting on who’d win. There were 7 rooms, & you had been through 2, you & 3 others were still alive.

One of them were watching you intently, he had gained a liking to you. He was hoping you would win.

But when one of your teammates betrayed you & shot you with a gun they had found; he immediately stopped the game, & opened a door rushing to you.
