Chapter 3
"Previously on The Forbidden Game,"
-Noura
It looked like a guy. He had white snow hair and torques blue striking eyes.
Rose POV
Wait! I've seen this guy before, but when? When did I see this guy?
He looked so familiar. No I must be hallucinating, but a part of me said that I'm not. He looked like the guy in the game store. Realization struck me like a cold bucket of water. Those torques blue eyes, that looked not real, like a manga character coming to life. The hair so white like snow, those features so perfect, so unreal. Just like a prince of darkness.
I felt a hand on my waist brining me closer. I looked at that person and it was Dimitri.
"Wow Rose what a game you brought for us" he said astonished. I looked in front of me and saw a paper house. It looked like a dollhouse. I saw Mason open a small box and took out a bunch of papers.
"This game is a race for your life, you will each face your worst nightmare that you would rather die then tell anyone about it and there is no guarantee to survive after this game," said Mason slightly freaked out.
I swallowed hard and then heard Dimitri and Adrian say at the same time.
"WOW Rose what a game" and then they both glared at each other. I shook my head at them. This is not the time to fight. I feel weird. I feel like someone is watching me. I never feel like this before 3 o'clock at night. My breath hitched and that caused everyone to look at me.
"What's wrong Rose?" said Meredith looking concerned for me. She took a defiance stance making both Dimitri and Adrian alert.
"The guy" I whispered.
"What guy?" growled Dimitri and Adrian this time together not glaring at each other for the first time this night.
I just shook my head. You're hallucinating Rose, don't say those things in front of them or you'll end up in a mental hospital.
"No it's nothing, please Mason read the rest," I said trying to drop this conversation.
"Okay" said Mason. He flipped to the next card and read " You need to swear that you know the consequences are real and that you are going to risk it for this game" Mason looked pale. Dimitri laughed and said.
"I swear that I know the consequences in this game are real and I am going to risk it for this game" everybody else looked at Dimitri shocked. He just shrugged his shoulders and said " Come on guys it's just a game right Rose" he looked at me with the look that says it's-my-birthday-and-I-need-to-have-fun.
So I swallowed my fear and smiled trying to distract myself from the bad feeling coming from my gut.
"Come on guys let's play," I said knowing that I would regret this for the rest of my life. "What should we do next?" I asked trying to convince them. Mason gave me the cards and said.
"You read the rest then" I took the cards in a shaky grip, hoping that no had noticed it, but when I saw how concern everybody looked I knew they saw it. The card was smooth and white. The writing was on a blackish purple. It's my favorite color, the color that shows darkness and beautify in it. When I see this color I know there is always hope. It's the color of my sundress that I wore in my grandfather's basement. I still have hope that he's alive somewhere and that he didn't try to hurt me, cause after all of the things the police keeps saying. I still have hop that my grandfather didn't hurt me.
I heard Dimitri clear his throat. I looked up and saw him looking at me impatiently. I hate it when he acts like this. He has to be patient. I sigh, so did the others except Dimitri of course.
"I swear that I know the consequences in this game are real and I am going to risk it for this game" I wanted to say for Dimitri's sake. Everyone except Mason repeated. Mason is known as a chicken in our school. Why? Because in any fighting situation he would always run off and when I say run off. I mean like really run off scared for his on life, but when it comes to skating battle he's the best in it.
He's better than Eddie. Back to the main situation everyone looked at Mason. Mason swallowed and said.
"Do I really have to swear on my life for this stupid game?" asked Mason looking like he's about to shit himself.
"DA!" said Mia obviously loving this moment to see Mason sweat from nervousness. "You said it's a stupid game, so why are you acting like a chicken, chicken" she smirked making Mason growl.
"I'm not a chicken" he defended himself.
"Chicken said WHAT!" and Mia started to do chicken sounds and stood up, walking like a chicken, that made all of us laugh.
Mason stood up and shouted.
"ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! I'LL SAY IT" Mia stopped and looked at Mason with a smirk and said.
"Then say it" Mason scratched the back of his head and played with his vans bandana.
"Fine I swear that I know the consequences in this game are real and I am going to risk it for this game" he said it all, while looking at a smirking Mia.
"FINALLY!" Screamed Dimitri raising both of his hands, he pulled the cards from my hands impatiently causing the papers edge to cut my index finger. Drops of blood started to fall from my finger. I quickly hid it from all views and excused myself.
I walked in the kitchen and started to wash my finger. My eyes started to sting from the unshed tears. I felt a warm hands holding my finger and washing it slowly.
I knew without looking backwards that it's Dimitri. It's not the first time he does these things. I felt him kiss my neck and mumble how sorry he is. I just kept quiet reminding myself that he didn't do it on purpose and that I'm feeling like this from the stupid game.
"It's okay Dimitri, I'm fine" I mumbled quietly so no one could hear me. I looked at my right and saw the papers. I rubbed my hands on a near small towel and took the papers. I looked at Dimitri and saw him looking at me with regret in his eyes. "It's alright Dimitri, I'm fine like really fine no need to be sorry.
He held the finger that has a paper cut on it and kissed it. He then looked at me and said.
"I love you Rose, you know that, right?" he asked looking worried a bit. When he said right.
"Yes Dimitri I know and I love you t…" Meredith cut me off saying.
"Come on guys you have to draw your worst nightmares" and she smiled wickedly. Dimitri and I nodded and walked to the living room. I saw them all drawing their worst nightmares. They were using Jason's colored pencils. Dimitri held my hand and dragged me towards the space that was left out for both of us. We sat on the floor. Mia gave Dimitri and I papers to draw on our worse nightmare.
""Each player needs to draw their worst nightmare that they would rather die, then tell anyone," Said Mai, both Dimitri and I nodded our heads. Dimitri covered his paper with his hand and looked at me smiling, excitement shone from his eyes. I smiled at him and looked at my paper. It was blank. I can't draw my worst nightmare. It's not that I can't it's that I don't want to.
"Come on everybody fold your papers and put them in the box" instructed Mia. She's the only person in this room that is excited to play this game. I have a feeling that she's doing it to scare the shit out of Mason.
"In the box why?" asked Jill. She was sitting next to Adrian.
"Because, that's what they want us to do see," she held the card in front of Jill. Jill started to read it out loud.
"After drawing your worse nightmare, you need to fold your paper and put it in the box, after doing that each player should take a paper and draw them selves"
Meredith started to give each one of us a paper. Everyone except me were enjoying themselves. I peeked at Dimitri's drawing and what I saw made me giggle. Dimitri looked at me with a smile and said.
"What! Haven't you ever seen a bad drawing before, cause Jason's drawings are worse than mine" I giggled even more, cause Jason's drawings are better than his.
"Actually Jason's drawing are much better than yours" I giggled more when he fake growled at me.
I took a brown pencil color, red and black. First I took the black and drew a circle then a line under it. I then took the red color pencil and drew a dress or I think I drew something that looks entirely different. Oh well I'm not good at drawing. Anyone would get the point that this is a dress. Then I took the brown color pencil and drew a long wavy hair. I then drew 3 lines, 2 for the eye and 1 for the mouth. I looked like a chines person.
"Okay come on guys, I told you to draw yourself not a monalisa," complained Mia.
"What should we do next?" asked Eddie. We all looked at Mia and she flipped to the other card.
"Okay each player will place their drawing on a place in the paper house then players will start decorating the place" said Mia and looked at all of us then she shrugged her shoulders.
I was the first to place my drawing, which I liked to call a player in a place that looked like a living room. Dimitri followed me and left his player next to mine. We looked at each other and grinned. I saw Mia put her player on the stairs, Jill left hers in the bedroom, Mason and Eddie left their players in a room they called the game room.
Adrian left his player in the living room next to mine. Dimitri growled causing Adrian to smirk, Lissa and Christian put their players in the bathroom. When we asked why. They said it was the only place they have privacy in. Meredith decided to annoy Mia, so she left her player standing in front of Mia, causing both Mason and Eddie to snicker, while Mia just glared at her.
"So let's start designing the house" encouraged Mason. We all started to draw. After a while we ended up drawing a big plasma screen, two sofas and one table in the living room. In the bedroom Jill drew a pink bed, bedside table and two lamps. In the game room as Eddie and Mason said. They drew 5 plasma screens for PlayStation, x-box, Wii, Nintendo and Game queue. They also drew comfy chairs with flashy colors and they were done. Meredith and Mia drew 2 chandlers hanging in the middle of the house. The also drew half green and half pink carpet.
Christian and Lissa drew a big hot tub, a small sink and a wall length mirror. Adrian drew a BMW red car in the living room, causing all of us to laugh except Dimitri.
"So were all finished?" asked Dimitri. All of us nodded our heads and then Dimitri motioned for Mia to complete reading, when Adrian pulled the cards from her hand.
"I'll read," said Adrian. Mia just glared at him and huffed, making Mason snicker. "Okay let's see" said Adrian flipping to the next card. "At the strike of clock that declares it's nine o'clock sharp, you will all start to play" Adrian looked up from the card and said.
"You don't have a clock that strikes each passing hour do you?" asked Adrian. I shook my head and then Jill said something.
"Wait! We didn't put this player in the paper house and two other pictures, one is a snake and the other is a wolf," she explained. Dimitri took the players from her hand and put them in front of the door. I looked closely at the player that looked just like the guy in the game store. When it suddenly winked. I gasped in shock.
"What's wrong Rose?" asked Dimitri looking concerned. I just closed my eyes and took deep breaths. I can't be hallucinating the whole time. I looked at Dimitri's brown eyes and decided to tell him.
"The player he-he looks like the guy who sell this game to me" I explained. Dimitri looked at the player and said.
"It could be a coincident" I shook my head it can't be.
Suddenly a clock came from nowhere and started to strike over and over again, each time it would get louder and louder.
"I thought you said, you don't have a clock that strikes in your house" said Adrian looking confused. I looked at him and said.
"Because I don't have one" my heartbeat stared to increase and I remembered the words I thought I heard from that guy.
"See you at nine Rose" I whispered. I looked at all of my friends that I trust. "He said see you at nine Rose" Dimitri stood up and said.
"Let's call the police" he walked towards his cell phone and started to click on the numbers. He put it on he's ear and then he cursed saying "There is no signal"
Everyone got out their cell phones and cursed. My hands started to sweat, when Meredith said.
"Wait we can call the police from your house phone" I just nodded and saw her walk towards the phone and dial the police number. We waited for one minute, when Meredith cursed.
"There is no signal right?" asked Adrian looking afraid. This was the first time I saw Adrian looked scared. Dimitri walked towards the door and said.
"Come on guys lets get out of here" he pulled the door, but it won't bug. Meredith ran towards the window and tried to open it, but it didn't open. Adrian stood up and took one of the chairs and started to bang it on the window and there wasn't even a scratch.
I started to breath in hysteria, causing everyone to look at me. Dimitri ran towards me and held me in his arms.
"It's okay Roza everything is going to be okay" I wanted to cry and scream for help, but felt darkness overcome me.
My eyes started to open slowly and I saw a weird looking living room. It actually had a car in it. A red BMW car. My eyes widen. It's just like what Adrian drew.
I quickly got up and saw everyone on the floor sleeping.
"GUYS WAKE UP" I shouted causing all of them to jump. They all looked around confused then when they realized that we are in the paper house, they all started to scream.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?" screamed Mason.
"IT THIS A SICK JOKE" shouted Meredith. She walked towards me and stood next to me. I started to look for Dimitri and saw him kicking the door. I walked towards him, while saying.
"Comrade stop! You're only going to hurt yourself" I held his arm and he shook it off saying.
"NO! ROSE WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE, NO! WE NEED TO GET YOU! OUT OF HERE!" he emphasized you.
Then I heard a soft musical laugh coming behind me. I saw Dimitri's eyes widen in shock and then he suddenly pulled me behind him.
"WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM US" screamed Dimitri at the guy that laughed. The guy started to laugh harder and I couldn't help, but admire he's laugh.
I started to push Dimitri away, so I can see who's the person is and what I saw made mw gasp in shock. There standing in front of me was the guy in the game store.
He looked at me and smiled. A wicked smile and said.
"I told you, I will see you at nine My Rose"
