Chapter 53: Truth or Dare 5



Chapter 53: Truth or Dare 5

Number 4's death was a brief accident that people quickly forgot, even his teammates couldn't be bothered to remember the guy's name and everyone just called him stupid or selfish number 4.

The other groups didn't have much to comment on this matter as the man's death was actually beneficial for them, but Morana was different.

This accident brought something out in her for the first time she felt something but that wasn't the most astonishing thing.

'Emilio' that was the last word number 4 said before his death as he saw an image of a small boy, Morana didn't know why but for some reason she felt some familiarity with the boy.

Obviously, she didn't know him but somewhere deep down she felt a dull ache, it was just for a second before disappearing like it was never there overwhelmed by the deep feelings from the man.

She would believe it was overthinking had she not felt a subtle wetness on her chick.

'Huh?...'

Her small hand slowly touched her face and sure enough, as she looked down on her palm she saw it was wet.

'A tear?... I cried?' 

She asked no one in particular with a hint of disbelief.

No one noticed Morana's peculiar behavior as they were all immersed in the game but for her, it was as if the world froze at that moment.

Before she came back to reality 2 more contestants had died, number 5 the husband killer and number 10 the cliche psycho killer.

This turn was almost over as it was Ezra's turn to do his dare.

"Let's see... number 13, you did admit that you are in love with contestant number 6, but are you loyal?" Asked Martin with a bit of mischief as he took out a potion bottle out of nowhere.

"Number 13 your dare is to drink 'Delila'."

Hearing Martin's words everyone's attention turned to Ezra waiting for his reaction, Morana even heard a few people gloating.

On the contrary, to everyone's expectations, Ezra didn't even blink as he took the potion from Marvin's hand and gulped it down in one go.

1 second passed nothing

2 seconds

3 seconds

After a whole minute passed, people could no longer gloat as they saw that Ezra was completely fine as if he just drank some water.

After the end of the second round, only 4 people were left in the game from the initial 14, highlighting the brutality of this game.

Morana's team lost 2 people, while the other two teams had one contestant left in the game each and the 4th team were utterly defeated with number 4's death.

It was once again Sophia's turn and this time she had to do the truth.

"Are you hiding something from contestant number 13 that you really don't want him to find out?" Asked Marvin with an ever so creepy smile that never left his face.

This time Sophia was a little slow with her answer as felt an intense gaze from Ezra.

"Yes."

Her answer brought confusion to not only Ezra but also Zoel and Shio, the only one who enjoyed this game other than Marvin was Morana as different strange snacks could be seen in her hands at all times.

Despite the confusion and questions written all over people's faces, Marvin didn't even bat an eyelash as he continued the game.

Number 7 or otherwise known as Wonder Woman 2.0 had a dare as she did the truth on the last round.

This time she received a dare to find a certain object hidden on the premises of the game arena.

The object was a small amulet and the time limit was before the end of this round, which was not much time as there were only 2 contestants left so the woman started the dare without wasting any time and soon disappeared from everyone's sight.

It was now the turn of number 10's or otherwise known as Mrs. Cannibal.

Just as Marvin opened his mouth to talk his face had a hint of confusion as he stared at Mrs. Cannibal more intensely and the next second his face distorted into a much more vicious and distorted smile.

"Number 11 your dare is to also drink 'Delila'." 

This dare was truly unexpected as it was apparent that number 11 was a woman and women are immune to 'Delila'.

But contrary to everyone's beliefs number 11 didn't look happy instead her expression was distorted to the unbelievable point of ugliness.

After finally mustering up the courage to drink the potion with her shaky hands Mrs. Cannibal's face turned paler and wrinklier than ever.

Everyone thought this was pointless but what now?

This grandma actually started gnawing on her own, flesh?

Aren't women immune to 'Delila'.

"She was a man." Finally, everyone barely heard Zoel's whispers.

"A W...WHAT?" Emir couldn't help but shout as everyone simultaneously turned to Zoel asking for an explanation.

Inside Morana's head, another little guy was raging from disbelief.

[Master Look, look I told you, these people are too scary we must get out of here as soon as possible. Mrs. Cannibal turned out to be Mr. Cannibal, even your teammate is hiding something from her secret lover. I feel like we are telenovela and someone is going to say "the end of the episodes 195" or something as everything is going to turn black and white and an unknown wind is going to appear from somewhere while there isn't even a window open.]

Morana couldn't help but agree with Jolly as she felt a little annoyed with him for being so loud, but mostly she felt very excited as she took out questionable green cookies and started eating them.

I was thinking of doing some side stories in between chapters, like the past of number 4 and a few other interesting characters along the way.

Each of them will be about 1-2 chapters, so if you are interested leave comments.

Also, follow me on Insta I post some sneak peeks there before uploading the chapters as well as some cations and character designs.
