Money was a problem these days. You found yourself immersed in expensive and unaffordable debts, and just when you thought you were going to die poor, you were saved.

Well, kind of.

There were these games. You were put in a room with 455 other people and you played children’s games. The ones that won, won big prizes of money. The ones that lost… Well, they were eliminated. Quite literally.

This one game consisted in a spinning platform. You and the other players were put in the middle of a room with 50 small rooms, and someone yelled out a number. You had to enter the rooms in groups of that number.

Just as you were beginning to understand the game, the lady yelled out the number three.

You immediately ran towards the rooms, just praying to find a group to enter a room with.

Everyone was running and yelling and you were being pushed around, trying to find your friends.

That’s when, your arm was tugged violently and player 124 pulled you into a room with his friend ‘Thanos’.

“Oi, Thanos, I got a person!”

He cheered, pointing towards you.

Now you were three, and you won this round. But at what cost?
