My eyes quickly scanned the contents of this new room that significantly differed from the first room I awoken in with the other girls. That room was bleak and devoid of any form of furniture and seemed to only exist as some sort of holding room for us as if we were prisoners.

  We were even forced to rest and sleep on the cold hard ground without a proper bed and pillow. It was quite a painful experience for a girl such as myself but I somehow managed to doze off after who knows how long.

  However, I was currently on top of a soft and honestly quite comfortable bed which made me experience more fear and uncertainty rather than its intended function of comfort.

  The room I was currently in looked like a regur room a student would have. There was a desk, wardrobe and other furniture which made the whole situation even weirder. While it was a stark contrast from my own feminine room with soft toys and posters decking the walls, it was still a decently furnished room which I could see someone actually living in.

  I then felt a chill on my abdomen which caused me to look down at my own body which I then remembered was currently only being covered by my panties and a pair of thick bloomers over them which Masayoshi put on me earlier. This meant that my upper body was completely naked and my breasts were quite literally exposed to the cool air which made me feel quite uncomfortable.

  I retrieved the crumpled up note I hid in my panties earlier and pced it on the desk before heading to the wardrobe in search of new clothes to wear. I still had no idea where I was and where Ichigo and the other girls that cleared the game with me were but I supposed there was no harm in examining the room for any clues.

  The wardrobe looked old and creaked as I pulled on its handles which hinted to me that it had been here for an extended period of time even before my arrival. Upon opening the wardrobe, I somewhat expected to be greeted by a variety of clothes but the only article of clothing inside was a school uniform. To make things weirder, it was not just any school uniform but a traditional navy blue sailor uniform.

  “I suppose I have no choice since it is at least a form of clothing.”

  I took the sailor uniform out of the wardrobe and searched the other compartments for any other pieces of clothing. I then opened the drawer and found a set of light blue lingerie with white ce.

  I picked up the lingerie and felt a weird sense of familiarity as my fingers ran through the fabric. The soft touch of silk alongside its slightly rough texture which hinted at it being used and washed multiple times. I knew the texture as if I had felt it countless times before.

  Then it hit me, this was not just any random lingerie but my own. To double check, I inspected the tag of the bra and it was indeed my size. The size of the panties were right too which made the situation even weirder.

  Why was my lingerie here? Who brought them here? Where and what exactly is this creepy room?

  Questions filled my head but I took a deep breath and collected my thoughts. I removed the thick pair of bloomers Masayoshi put on me alongside the green pair of panties I was currently wearing.

  I took the light blue bra and quickly fastened the hook and adjusted it to make sure I was comfortable to move about if the need arises. Not to mention that my breasts were feeling kind of cold since they were bare for who knows how long after Masayoshi cut off my previous one.

  I then slid the pair of panties through my ankles and brought them up to my waist and needless to say they fit perfectly. The soft texture provided me with some sembnce of warmth amidst this creepy atmosphere.

  After I finished being dressed in the light blue lingerie, I picked up the sailor uniform that was provided since it was the only form of clothing that was present.

  I couldn’t remember the st time I had worn such a uniform but it felt somewhat nostalgic. Contrary to my lingerie, the sailor uniform was not quite fitted to my body as the top barely covered my midriff and the skirt ended at the middle of my thighs.

  “I feel like those slutty girls back in school who would show off their body just to attract the attention of the boys. I’m pretty sure that even with the slightest movement, my shirt and skirt will most definitely ride up. But I guess it was better than being naked.”

  After being dressed, I headed to the desk where I had left the crumpled up piece of paper I received earlier alongside the knife. I slowly unfolded the piece of paper and read its contents.

  “Do not trust any of the guards. Do not trust the announcer, he is not who he cims to be. I have information. I will help you. Trust in me. Electricity goes out for an hour every night. Prison no. 10142.”

  Upon reading the contents of the note, every alert and red fg appeared telling me that this was downright suspicious not to mention that these were the words of a prisoner which meant that he was also a pervert himself. It would be walking into a lion’s den and offering him a meal on a silver ptter.

  However, it was a lead. Something I had been searching for since I woke up in that weird room.

  As I was debating internally, an arm rang and alongside it 2 guards barged into the room with their rifles.

  “Come with us pyer Hiragi Yuzu. The gamemaster would like to have an audience with you as one of the winners of the game of capture the fg. The other girls are already waiting.” One of the guards demanded.

  “I think you are smart enough to follow our instructions.” The second guard followed up.

  The mention of the other girls made me heave a sigh of relief as they were alright after we all lost consciousness.

  “Give me a minute, I haven’t changed my underwear yet. Wait outside and I will follow you once I am done.” I asked to their visible annoyance.

  However, they did not restrict me and left the room.

  “Hurry up, it would not be wise to make the gamemaster wait. Furthermore, I would recommend you to not do anything rash.”

  One of the guards threatened as he cocked his rifle to send a message which was probably meant to intimidate me.

  After they left the room, I quickly pced the note into my skirt pocket and collected my green panties as well.

  I wanted to discuss the contents of the note with the other girls and ask for their opinions as more brains were better than one. I also brought the underwear I took off earlier as well as I did not want the creeps running this weird pce to get their hands on them and defile them.

  I then left the room with my armed escorts as I walked down yet another unfamiliar hallway that cked any windows or signs of the outside world. The hallway I was currently in looked simir to a school dormitory where there were multiple doors present on both sides of the walkway which were probably rooms simir to the one I awoken in earlier.

  However, this led me to wonder on the need of having so many rooms since the only ones that cleared the previous game alongside myself were Ichigo, Yuka and Kanade which further increased the questions I had about my current predicament.

  After walking for a few minutes, the guards stopped at a door that was simir to the others in the walkway and swiped a keycard which unlocked the heavy metal door. I eyed the keycard as he pced it back in side a compartment in his pants thinking of any possible way to retrieve it without their knowledge.

  Inside the room, there was not much furniture simir to the initial holding room we were in before the game but at least this room had tables and chairs. It was nothing compared to the individual room I awoken in but it was still an upgrade from having to sit and sleep on the floor.

  However, there were simirities as well which was that there was only one door and no windows, ventition ducts or any other sources of light which acted as another reminder of our strange circumstances and the messed up nature of this pce.

  After scanning the room, I saw a girl with yellow hair, one with white hair and another with jet bck hair. While they were currently wearing different clothes from the game, I was still able to identify them from just a gnce.

  Yuka who was wearing a one piece dress was now wearing a T-shirt with a denim skirt. Ichigo who was wearing a Lolita dress due to the events that transpired with Masayoshi was now cd in a one piece dress that ended at her kneecaps.

  However, Kanade was wearing the same outfit which consisted of a white singlet with a bck jacket and a long bck skirt with bck tights underneath. With how she handled herself in the game, she probably did not even get touched by any of the prisoners let alone got her clothes ripped off which is probably why she did not change.

  While I had only knew them for a short time, I somehow felt relieved. Perhaps it was due to the presence of having simir people being trapped in the same predicament acting as some sort of safety net for my mental state.

  Upon spotting me, the white haired girl ran straight towards me and gave me a hug with tears in her eyes.

  “Yuzu! I am so gd you are safe! I have no idea what I would do without you! I was so scared when you went to help Ichigo.”

  Before I could reply, Ichigo headed towards me as well and followed up with another hug.

  “Yuzu-san! Aya-san... Aya-san, she sacrificed herself to protect me and I remembered you coming to save me as well. Before I knew it, I woke up in some strange room wearing some sort of poofy dress those olden girls wore and I was wearing different underwear with some sort of poofy shorts on top. What happened while I was asleep?”

  I reciprocated both their hugs with a hug of my own showing that I was genuinely thankful that at least majority of us were safe. I then noticed that the guards left the room and I heard the sound of a lock clicking into pce which was probably them locking the metal door which was the sole entrance to this room.

  As they left, I wanted to discuss with the other girls about whatever information we have about our current circumstances in order to figure out what exactly was this pce and why we were brought here against our wills.

  But first, I headed over to Kanade who was seated on a chair in the corner of the room with her usual poker face that made it almost impossible for anyone to figure out her thoughts which I somehow already got used to despite the short amount of time I interacted with her.

  Surprisingly, she was the first one to speak.

  “Yo pink-hair. Congratutions on surviving, can’t say I trusted in you to survive or anything but its still somewhat good to see you. At least you made me saving you not a complete waste of time. But I heard from these 2 here that you somehow managed to save them as well, perhaps you are somewhat useful after all.”

  I ignored her cocky and prickly attitude and smiled at her and gave her a 45 degrees bow to show my respect.

  “Kanade, regardless of how you see me, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you for saving me during the game. I probably would have given up all hope of living and escaping this pce if it was not for you. Thank You!”

  Before she could reply, a familiar jovial voice which sent chills to my spine called out from a speaker on the ceiling. Immediately after, a rge television screen descended from the ceiling simir to what happened in the first holding room for us to watch the game live.

  The television flicked on and a person appeared.

  The person was dressed in some sort of fancy tuxedo with a white opera mask over his entire face and a hood covering the rest of his head. It was clear he wanted to keep his identity hidden yet for some reason he chose to show himself to us for the first time since we woke up in this pce.

  While it was impossible to distinguish his identity, it was clear that it was a man due to his rge frame and he was of older age since he was slightly hunching. I was sure that he was using some sort of voice changer as well since the voice did not exactly match his body shape.

  “Good day girls! I would like to express my heartfelt congratutions to the 4 of you for clearing the game. I trust all of you enjoyed sleeping on the beds provided in the rooms you awoken in. A shame the 2 others with you could not enjoy the same luxury. Nonetheless, with a victory comes a prize and since I am sure that all of you must be confused about your current surroundings, I shall grant each of you the opportunity to ask me a question which I will answer truthfully. Any question at all but do note that the answers may not be what you are expecting so choose your words wisely.”

  I started to think about what questions I could possibly ask since there was no guarantee he would give a definitive answer anyways and the words he chooses would most likely be intentionally vague.

  As I was deep in thought, Ichigo went first.

  “What exactly is this messed up pce and why are we forced to py those perverse games with those creepy guys?”

  Upon hearing her question, all of us stared at the screen and awaited the answer. Soon after he replied.

  “My dear Ichigo, it seems you did not understand me as you are only allowed to ask me one question each. But since I am benevolent, I shall answer both questions but do note for the 3 others, I will only entertain one question each.”

  He took a breath before speaking again.

  “Where you girls are currently in is a prison that is hidden so well that no one in the whole of Japan other than people here knows of its existence. This prison is home to some special inmates as I am sure you have seen first hand. As for why you girls specifically were brought here, I can assure you that proper consent was given.”

  “What the hell is he talking about?!!” I thought in my head as the words proper consent stood out. I don’t remember consenting to be a part of such a fucked up situation so what on earth was he talking about.
