Play ( sunkissed - khai dreams )

Somehow, Bae Irene's words clogged into my brain until the next day when the Satyr gathered all of us again in the center of the camp. The crowd of godlings were buzzing with chatters and all I see were the excited faces of their from the back. Word spread that today was the day that most campers are waiting for. And the Satyr's announcement only cemented that.

"I think this is what you all have been waiting for," the Satyr playfully shrugged but a smirk was plastered in his mouth. We waited as he continued his speech.

"This is the time for Capture the Flag!" 

Yells and grunts dominated the place, as mostly Ares children shouted their joys. You see, Capture the Flag was like the signature dish of the camp. It's like an initiation and when you get to play it, you are hereby an official cabin member of this camp. The first time I played it was when I was new here. I remembered to be as excited as the others then but right now, I wasn't as enthusiastic as before. Why? Because I got to play it multiple times by now and my team didn't actually won all of them and Bae Irene's threat was sounding a little more intimidating, a little more real. 

"Now, now settle down campers," the Satyr gestured for us to stop hyping and cleared his throat. "I bet most of you already know the rules by now but I'll still say it as we have some newcomers and because it's protocol."

That got him chuckles and boos. "Capture the Flag is the game consisting of two teams, the Red and the Blue teams that will be situated towards both opposite sides of the forest grounds. Both teams will have their own flags and will be randomly placed in the woods and whoever teams that will first find the flag of the opposite team and return with it to their team base will be the winner."

The Satyr beamed. "Sounds easy right? Oh and godly powers are not allowed."

Some campers groaned at that as they were the people who mostly rely on their prowess but there's also other that was fine by it as much.

I could feel someone burning their gaze at my back and when I turned around I wasn't surprise to see that it was the Zeus daughter and she was smirking deviously to me.

"That to be fair with all, you will be group by the magical ball of life." He said as he pulled out something behind his back.

It was just a normal fishbowl with rolls of tiny papers inside.

After some time, when I got myself my own tiny paper, I walked towards my new team and was pleasantly surprised when I was grouped to some of my acquaintances. Kwon Eunbi was smiling at me as she beckon me to move faster. "Welcome to the Blue team!"

I nodded as thanks then greeted them back. These groupings for Capture the Flag was with both boys and girls and it was a nice change to team with the boys. I couldn't help but to stare at Eunbi as I gulped at her choice of outfit.

"Uhm, what are you wearing?" 

She beamed at me and pointed at her chest. I tried not to stare for so long. "Oh, I was in the middle of palates when I heard the horn, I couldn't get a change of clothes in time. You know how Jihyo could get when one of us were running late."

I had no choice but to nod but still couldn't help but to steal another glance before I looked away. She was undeniably y today with her tight yoga pants and black sports bra that was hugging all of her curves. Some of the boys also stared but I stepped beside her to hinder their sight. I bit back a grin when they huffed away.

I shrugged off my windbreaker, leaving me only with my rock band shirt as I handed it towards Eunbi that was currently eyeing it with confusion.

"Wear it."

She stared at me totally confused but did what I told. Slowly, her body was then covered by my jacket until she zipped it up just below her chest and my heart was beating loudly that I was afraid she could hear it. It was like she was easing me to laid my eyes on her front as her sports bra was still glaring at me. I frowned then grabbed a hold of the zipper and zip it up to her neck. "There."

She gasped then pulled at my hands then pulled the zipper down to settle it just below her chest. "Hey!"

I zipped it up back to her neck. "Zip it up."

She returned it below her chest. "Quit it!"

"That's my jacket."

"And that's my body."

I stopped resisting her and do what she said. I pulled down the zipper until it was just below her sports bra. "Y-Yeah...your b-body."

"Thank you for listening," she huffed as she puffed her chest. I blushed when my eyes couldn't help but to stray towards the temptation. Luckily, Jihyo managed to pull us out from our quarrel with her loud voice.

"Stop fighting there lovebirds and all of you pay attention here!" She commanded respect that we scrambled apart from one another, having to not have the time to let Jihyo's words sit as we fast walked towards the front. 

"As the Blue team's leader, I'm going head to head with Irene of the Red team."

I gulped as I remembered what the Zeus daughter threatened me. She promised to crush me in front of the others...

I paled at the mere thought of what, what more with later? I was itching to run away but Eunbi's hand was wrapped around my wrist, preventing me from bolting away.

"Okay so here's the plan..." Jihyo started to give out orders to us and we all nodded in determination.

I was following Hyewon and Chaeyeon of the Demeter cabin when she strike up a conversation. "You think we're going to win?"

Having Jihyo by our side certainly increase our chance of winning but, "That's hard to say...they have Irene-ssi over there." Hyewon looked over her shoulder to stare at us.

I nodded solemnly when every now and then, I was being remembered of Bae Irene's presence. Chaeyeon thought for it in a moment and was about to say something when I yelped then stumbled on some branches, making me grab a nearby object and it was a tree bark. The girl beside me thankfully caught my waist and balanced me on my feet. I gazed at her glad that she saved me but hissed in pain. I brought my hand up to my face and grimaced.

Hyewon gave a low whistle as she eyed my wounded palm that was snatched hurriedly by Chaeyeon. She pulled me to sit on a large rock then kneeled to inspect my hand. I know it was bad from the way the two were staring at it and the sting I felt. "Hold on."

She pulled out a little first aid kit that was in her back pocket and opened it fast with her one hand while the other was gripping my injured hand softly. I was silent as she did her work and wrapped my palm with gauze after pouring antiseptic on it. Hyewon was eyeing the procedure with curios eyes and didn't hide the fact that she snickered when I yelp from the pain. 

"Done." Chaeyeon eyed her work and I was satisfied with the dressing. She was staring at it momentarily before she gazed at me with a frown. "Be careful next time Kkura." She reprimanded. She pulled me up and I thanked her with reddened cheeks but she only smiled in return. Hyewon hauled herself up to begin our walk again. 

We were tasked with surveying a part of the woods in hopes of fi
