The dull prison we stood in was incomparable to any location I'd been in throughout the seemingly never ending day spent by Chishiya's side knowing we would later participate in a game.

The day was spent searching for more essentials and keeping an eye on the King Of Spades movements, it was spent speaking with Chishiya about anything our minds offered and anything my mind offered to make me stop thinking about the game we would voluntarily play.

However, as I was waiting for the game to begin I couldn't help but absentmindedly look around the large room complete with an array of arched hallways the majority of strangers stood by - Chishiya leant against one of the arches and I'd taken a stand on his left away from the arch but instead against the wall-  just like the last these walls were touched more evidently with the violence of previous prisoners I couldn't help but wonder if they'd made it to this land too... if they were the ones who survived and thrived in such gruesome games because they found joy in murder and criminal activities.

Yet, I didn't believe anyone currently standing in the room was a previous prisoner for the majority of faces had been etched with nervousness or attempted confidence.

I supposed that the larger man standing by the wooden-like bar structure behind the white painted metal netting on the floor was some sort of criminal, he had that usual gangster look to him with his shaved head and harsh features, he had mean eyes and a look on his face attempting to prove his nastiness.

Another female complete with a blue dress and innocence on her face as she looked around almost knowingly caught my eye because she emitted confidence, she'd looked so comfortable in the new environment it was almost like she'd been here before.

The central room we stood in now was incomparable to the other rooms regarding smell because everyone's body odour blended into one but it wasn't as prominent as the way people tried to present confidence.

The halls were seemingly endless and the lights seemed to tint every area grey as if it was nothing but a cloudy dream of mine. The white metal netting displayed the floor below us mirrored the exact same thing held within the floor we stood upon; Everything looked the same as the last in the most haunting way possible.

Eventually, in the tense silence created by individuals awaiting for the game to begin there had been a man that walked into the room, he'd held a serious expression on his face and his thin frame was topped with a blue blouse and a white shirt underneath, complete with cream coloured trousers. The man had looked awfully calm, I wondered if I should pick up on that peaceful state of his, his thin face was complete with beauty spots and his black hair framed his face.

The nameless man looked unaffected by the game soon to begin, he looked unaffected by previous games and the horrors around him.

"Watch out for him" Chishiya said gently, leaning closer to me as he crossed his arms, keeping an eye on the nameless man's moving frame and I'd decided to keep my eye on the man too. "Sunato Banda... That's the murderer who killed those women a year or so ago"

Before I'd had a moment to react to his words the PA chimed in that awfully familiar tone diverting my attention almost immediately away from Banda and instead towards the screen presented on my left opposite the wooden structure the gangster stood by.

"Difficulty level, Jack of Hearts" The familiar voice said, as if on cue the large screen displayed the Jack of Hearts card, it hadn't looked as eerie on the large television screen as it did hanging from the silver blimp. "Game: Solitary confinement" The voice continued. "Rules: Guess the card suit that appears on the back of your collar. However you may not look at the symbol yourself"
