The lights went out and Eden had now just realized how scared she was. She was afraid of dying, she didn't have a reason to be afraid, but here she was, sitting down on the top bunk bed beside Daeho.
She wanted to tell him, she wanted to tell him that she loved him, but now wasn't the time. She had to defend and protect those on her team, if her friends weren't planning on attacking, then the least she could do, was protecting those who did attack.
Good thing she kept her gimbap, because inside of it, a fork in sigh made her gulp, grabbing it and twirling it around her hand to see if it could cause something.
And oh boy, it sure did.
If Myunggi stabbed Thanos with a fork, then that meant anyone with psycho sense grabbed their fork before throwing their food away. Eden only hoped that player 100 was stupid enough not to grab it.
The dormitory was bathed in shadows, the only light coming from the dim, flickering bulbs overhead. The hum of tension filled the air, thick and suffocating. The beds, stacked high in cold rows, seemed more like cages than places of rest. The players were supposed to be asleep, but the silence was broken by whispers from the 'O' team.
"Bangs.."
Eden's gaze moved from the fork to the man sitting on the bed beside her, she stayed silent but still stared at him, and somehow, she could see him with the lights out.
"Don't fight." He whispered.
For a moment, it felt like all the screams that suddenly erupted in the room disappeared, but then again, she said she'd fight. And she would.
"I have to." She whispered back.
Before Daeho could say anything, she climbed down the bunk bed and slowly walked back, trying not to make any sound. Daeho mentally cursed himself as he did the same and stayed close to her.
"You should hide, Daeho." She told him, trying to walk away from him.
He was quick to grab her wrist and stop her, pulling her close to him. "And what? Watch you get hurt while I do nothing? Yeah, no way." He said with a cold tone.
Eden stared at him and nodded, "Im not just fighting because I want to kill them." She stated, causing Daeho to look at her. "Im doing it for those who died or those who are going to die tonight."
"No one's going to die tonight." He cut her off.
She shook her head, "some of us will."
He rolled his eyes but then flinched when he heard a scream, he grabbed Eden by the shoulder and stood in front of her protectively. Their eyes wandered around the darkened room, making the girl curse when she saw Nam-gyu running towards the tall girl.
With no hesitation, Eden threw the fork harshly at the boy, landing perfectly onto the back of his neck. Se-mi snapped jumped back and looked sideways to see Eden who grabbed Daeho and dragged him with her.
