Nikki knocked on the door "What now?" Eric sounded very irritated.
"It's me Nikki. Can I come in?"
"Is it important?"
"We need your answer to the question the game posed"
"I'm not playing"
"But the game thinks you are. It needs an answer"
"Well the answer can be 'Nikki'. And that can be my answer to any other questions it has. Now leave me alone"
Nikki returned to the table. "She says me"
"We heard" said Amy. "Nikki as the answer no matter the question. But that's fine. You have great legs. As a matter of fact there's nothing about you I would object to having"
"Well I suppose we start round two. Your toss Amy" said Maureen who as ever was organising everybody. It was just part of her make up.
Amy tossed. Her mood like everyone else's had been dampened by Eric's outburst. She tossed 9 and her piece once more landed on a green square. "I sense unrest and need my spies, Take your pick and choose some eyes"
"The game can sense what is going on. I find that a bit creepy" said Jen
"We had Eric's eyes last night. But after her explosion I'm going to look elsewhere. I choose your big brown eyes Jen"
Jen tossed. Her total was 7 and like every other turn so far she landed on green. She read the card "Name two traits you would not like to lose. One of these, your friends to choose"
"Maybe my breasts and my voice"
"I would vote for Jen's voice. She has a lovely tone" suggested Maureen.
"And you haven't heard her sing" said Nikki "Definitely your voice Jen" Amy nodded and Ted shrugged.
"My voice then" said Jen
Nikki already had the dice and tossed. She tossed 8 also landing on green. "We are at the stage to choose an age. Whose birthday would you dare to share?"
"I guess Maureen & Belinda are already sharing Eric's age. So if I chose you Maureen would I get 21 or would I get whatever your real age is?"
"Don't take that risk. Choose Jen or Amy. I'm happy to stay in my early 20's thank you very much"
"Well in that case I'll choose Amy. Your toss Belinda" It was easy for Nikki to think Belinda had always been a girl. She had only met Ted very briefly the previous night.
Belinda tossed. She tossed 2 and 5. Her token moved to a red square. “You’ve landed on red, so now is the time, for you to define, the change we’ve had, you would decline”
"That's easy Maureen's request for femininity"
"Sorry Belinda" Maureen stressed the name "That was the previous game. It has to be something from this game"
"I don't know then. Maybe Amy's underwear?"
Maureen just rolled her eyes. Picked up the dice and rolled. She tossed 6 and 3. That took her to a green square. "As you lead the others must heed, does the player next have something you need?"
"Does Emily have something I need?"
"What about her height?" suggested Jen
"I already have that"
"Well I'd like it"
"It say's something I need. Maybe her slimness"
"I'd vote for that also" said Jen
"Done. Okay Emily's toss. Do you think I could toss for her?"
"Worth a try" said Amy
Maureen tossed. The dice left her hand and rolled double 4. Eric/Emily's token moved to the same space Amy was on. "Seems I can"
Jen read the card. "Cause trouble then toss a double. Share a space. I'll ask for a face"
"It's as if the game is reprimanding Eric" said Belinda
"Remember to call her Emily" Maureen chided her husband. "Her answer is Nikki by the way"
