?Wrong Foot? / Kang Dae-Ho / squid game 2

I woke up, my head pounding.
I sat up slowly, my bed was stiffer than I remembered.
Well maybe because it wasn't my bed.

I looked around as i furrowed my eyebrows and slowly got down off the bed I was on, noticing about 500 of the same ones in this huge room.

Where the hell am I..?

I slowly approached the bottom of the staircase and noticed everyone pretty much looked as clueless as I was.

I looked down at myself once I realized that everyone was wearing the same green tracksuit, but had different numbers..

382

I wondered how many people were in this room and how we all got here.

As I got down there were many who were already standing in the middle of the room. I looked around, hoping to find a familiar face, but I knew absolutely no one.

Suddenly a loud buzz was heard and the door in the front of the room was opened, revealing a bunch of people in pink jumpsuits with hoods and black masks with a shape on each one.

They stood before us and the one in the middle with a square shape on his mask began to speak.

"I would like to extend a heartfelt welcome to you all. Over the next six days, you will
participate in six different games. Those who win all six games will receive a handsome cash prize." spoke the masked man.

I crossed my arms as I leaned against the metal bar of a bed, listening to the person speak.

"excuse me." said a voice that sounded a lot like a man. 120. All attention went straight to him. But I was pretty sure he wasn't a him. He was a she and she was quite beautiful.

"If we're just playing games here, then why did you basically kidnap us? How can we trust you now?" she asked

Everyone silently agreed and nodded

"My apologies. Please understand it was a necessary step taken to maintain the strict confidentiality of these games." said the masked man

"Is that right? Then what's the deal with the masks? That's a secret too, i'm guessing" another woman asked

"yeah, why are you wearing those? Where are we? Is this some kind of illegal casino?" a man asked.

More voices were then heard agreeing to what these people said

"To ensure the fairness and confidentiality of the games, it is our policy not to disclose the faces and identities of our staff to participants. We ask for your understanding." said the same masked man

More and more people began to speak up about how they got us into these tracksuits, where their shoes are, and if our personal belongs will be given back. I just stopped listening because these people were annoying me. I sat down on the stairs as i waited for something else to happen.

Suddenly, the big screen above the masked people turned on. It showed a guy named
Lee Myung-gi getting slapped after losing ddakji.

I hope they don't show mine

They started exposing him and many others, listing their names and amount of debt they're in.

As he kept showing videos of people getting slapped while playing, I kept my eyes on the screen, completely forgetting to listen to the man speaking.

Suddenly the screen changed into a number.
456.
That's the amount of players in here.

The lights dimmed and a gold light came from the center of the ceiling as a huge piggy bank came down slowly.
