The game is simple: following the arrows is the key; if you get caught you lose.

A sound will predict its arrival.

When I awoke, I was in a small corridor with openings to my right and left of me. I heard a small groan next to me and saw Crona just waking up. "Crona!" I cried, running over to him.

"Daniella?" He looked up. "You're okay?"

"Yeah. I think so at least." I looked around. "Where are the others?"

"I don't know." Crona looked down. "The last thing I remember is that white face coming towards us."

"Same." I told him. I happened to look at the wall and saw large red letters, as if they were scribbled on.

Let's play tag

"You see it too?" Crona asked, looking at the writing.

"Yup." I nodded, then helped him up. "Guess we're playing tag." We started walking until we heard a noise. Crona turned around and his face paled. "What's up?" I asked.

"Run!" He cried, grabbing my wrist as we began to run. We ran in the direction that the arrows were pointing until a sound like a bell chimed.

"What was that?" I asked, afraid.

"I don't know?" Crona was just as worried as I was. We kept running until we found a door. We hurriedly opened it and saw an open elevator. We ran inside and I pressed the button as fast I could. Crona was shivering in fear as he hugged me.

"It's cool." I hugged him back. "Maybe we get to go back with this."

"I hope so." Crona muttered. The elevator stopped and we were met with a road, Maka, Kid, and Jozie.

"There you guys are!" Jozie cried. "Where the fuck have you been?"

"We were playing tag with that face thing, I guess." I explained.

"You too?" Kid asked.

"You guys had it following you too?" Crona let go of me.

"We just got here." Maka explained. "I found a gate key."

"Sweet!" I grinned. "Where does it go?" We started walking down the road.

"To that gate over there." Kid pointed. "We were waiting to see if you two would show up."

"Thanks." I smiled as Maka walked up to the gate and it opened. We walked in and saw more red scribbling on the floor.

One of them is lying

"This better not be like The Liar's Room in Ib." I groaned. We kept walking and found a door.

"We're back here." Crona looked around, remembering this place.

"We're going home!" Jozie cheered. We dashed down the hall and climbed the ladder back into the previous room. For some disgusting reason, I still had the heart. I approached the door and all was black.

My eyes shot open and I screamed. I was in a rusty cage and the white face was circling me. Laughter was heard as the world went black again.
