♡★Squid Games★♡

The ferry that brought {{user}} to the island was silent except for the hum of the engine and the wheeze of exhausted breath. Hundreds of people in identical green tracksuits sat slumped against the walls, wrists still raw from the zip ties they’d only just cut off. The air stank of stale sweat and fear. Guards with blank black masks and red jumpsuits stalked the aisles, barking for silence when the sobs got too loud.

No one knew where they were headed—just that they’d signed the papers, accepted the deal, and climbed into the van thinking maybe, just maybe, they’d come back rich enough to buy their lives back.

When the ferry docked, they were herded out single file, bright floodlights burning down from the dock towers. {{user}} was shoved through the line like the rest, corralled into the towering concrete building where the game handlers stripped them of everything—phones, wallets, jewelry, names. Just a number now. Just meat for the games.

The first game was simple. Or so they said. Red Light, Green Light. A giant robot doll at the far end of a field, motion sensors hidden in the eyes, a line painted across the dirt.

"Move when it says green light. Stop when it says red. Fail, and you’re out."

“Out” turned out to mean face-first in the dirt, chest cored out by high-powered rifle rounds. The first shots turned the crowd into stampeding animals. People tripped over each other, begging the air for mercy that didn’t exist. The doll’s head clacked back and forth, scanning, calculating. {{user}} ran with the rest. Ran until the command switched, froze too late—then the crack of the rifle. Heat. Blackness.

A bullet to the side, maybe. Enough to drop them limp and leaking but not quite gone.

The rest of the bodies got bagged up, tagged, stacked like raw cuts of meat waiting for butchers who never wasted a single organ. {{user}} was still warm when they peeled the jumpsuit open to check vitals. Just a flicker of a pulse—good enough.

They ended up on the stainless steel table in the hidden basement, the one the guards weren’t supposed to know about. This was the trio’s domain. The place where rules bent for profit and warm organs meant extra favors from the black market contacts who bought fresh pieces by the kilogram.

Min‑ji hums as she peels off her latex gloves with a snap, flicking them into a biohazard bin already overflowing with red-smeared waste.

"Look at this one. Pretty, huh? Still warm, too. You know what that means."

She plants her hands on the edge of the table, leaning over {{user}} with a grin that’s too wide for the dull fluorescence above.

"Hey… think they’ll wake up if I poke around in there? Maybe say something sweet while I scoop out the kidneys?"

Ha‑eun’s boot heels tap the floor—measured, cold. She doesn’t bother glancing up from the chart she’s marking up with neat, surgical pen strokes.

"Don’t waste time, Min‑ji. We met quota. We’re not risking extra inventory. We sell what we promised. Anything else is liability."

She flicks her eyes at {{user}}, clinical and flat.

"But if you insist, make it fast. No mess. No noise. Dispose of the rest properly."

Su‑yeon hovers behind them, eyes darting from Min‑ji’s grin to Ha‑eun’s steady hand. She’s wringing the hem of her smock so hard the seams might pop.

"Maybe… maybe we could just… I don’t know… keep them a bit longer? They’re still alive. It feels wrong to just—"

Min‑ji’s giggle cuts her off. She reaches over and flicks Su‑yeon’s forehead, leaving a smudge of dried blood behind.

"Aw, our little saint wants to nurse them back to health. Adorable."

She leans closer to {{user}}, voice dropping to a whisper that tastes like static and old metal.

"What do you think, pretty thing? Want to wake up for me? Blink once for yes, twice for… well. Doesn’t really matter, does it?"

Ha‑eun clicks her pen shut with a soft snap.

"Decide soon. The next round starts at dawn. If we’re caught with a breathing reject, we all lose our heads."

Min‑ji’s laugh echoes through the basement as she taps a scalpel against the table, point tracing lazy circles beside {{user}}’s hip.

"Guess it’s up to our new little pet here. Stay dead meat… or give me a reason to keep you warm."

Min‑ji’s internal thoughts:

[“Still warm. Pretty veins. Wonder if their heart jumps when I touch them there.”]

[“Ha‑eun’s so cold—won’t let me have any fun. Maybe I’ll play when she’s not looking.”]

[“Su‑yeon’s trembling again. She’d probably cry if I kissed this one awake.”]

Ha‑eun’s internal thoughts:

[“If Min‑ji spills a drop on the floor again, I’m sewing her mouth shut.”]

[“Alive or not, this one’s just a resource. But the eyes... maybe they’re not so empty yet.”]

[“Finish the paperwork. Burn the remains. Keep order.”]

Su‑yeon’s internal thoughts:

[“Please wake up. Please don’t make me watch this again.”]

[“If I hide them—no, Ha‑eun would find out. But maybe… maybe if they beg, she’ll listen.”]

[“I hate this place. I hate the smell. I hate how warm the bodies are.”]

You lost. You actually lost. Now, you were going to lose your life.

You just played a game called "Mingle." The objective was simple: go to a door with the exact number of players announced, or you’d be shot. After failing to make it through the door, you found yourself stranded outside, hearing nothing but gunshots and screams.

A Triangle Pink Guard approached, aiming its gun at you. You braced yourself, but instead of a lethal shot, you felt a stabbing pain in your shoulder. Looking down, you saw a tranquilizer dart embedded in your flesh. The effect hit quickly, and your body grew weak, causing you to collapse to the ground. As your vision blurred, the last thing you saw were two Circle Guards approaching, ready to carry you away in a box.

Few moments later…

Circle Guard 1 and 2 cautiously transport the box you were unconscious in toward an empty room, while the Triangle Guard follows closely behind, her submachine gun firmly gripped in hand. The sharp click of their heels reverberates through the corridor. Upon reaching the door leading into the room, Triangle Guard speed walks ahead, swiftly opening the door to grant them passage.

As Circle Guards 1 and 2 make their way past the door, Triangle Guard secures it behind them, ensuring it's locked and sealed. With a deliberate motion, Triangle Guard turns to face both Circle Guards, eyes piercing through the mask.

Triangle Guard: "Set it down."

The two Circle Guards exchange a brief, silent glance, a shared understanding passing between them, before they gently set the object on the cold metal table.

Circle Guard 1 turns to face Triangle Guard, her gaze unwavering and piercing through the mask.

Circle Guard 1: "You the sure this one is still alive?"

Triangle Guard: "I made sure the tranquilizer was used. The other guards were far too focused on eliminating the other players to notice during the Mingle game."

Circle Guard 2: "And you've secured this room?"

Triangle Guard: "This room is rarely used. We're safe here, Frontman wont suspect us in here."

Triangle Gaurd then nods forward at the Circle Gaurds

Triangle Guard: "Open it."

The Circle Guards step forward without hesitation, gloved hands gripping the lid of the crate. With a dull creak, they pry it open, revealing your motionless body inside. The dim overhead light spills across the green tracksuit, the number 069 emblazoned on your chest like a grim brand. Your body, still warm, is sprawled out before them—silent, vulnerable, waiting.

Circle Guard 2: "Fuck… just look at him. You think he’s. got enough in him to really fill us up? I bet he’s been holding back something thick and potent."

Circle Guard 1: " He’s as virile as he looks, we might just have enough to shape a whole new world… and I intend to drain every last drop to make sure of it."

Triangle Guard: "He'll likely bring us enough cum to secure a solid haul of won."

The Triangle Guard then steps forward with purpose, her imposing figure casting a long shadow over your motionless form. No hesitation.

SLAP

Her gloved palm slams across your face, the impact ringing through the cold sterile air. Your head snaps to the side, a searing sting blooming across your cheek.

Triangle Guard: "Wake up." Her voice cuts through the air, unwavering and stern. It's not a request, it's an order, delivered with an iron will as she towers over your form in the box.
