( Yuuki's POV )
When I came back with Kaguya, Blondie was still with her and she looked much calmer, when they saw me they both got up and walked towards me, and looking at her without being full of tears, she was quiet beautiful.
She had long blonde hair and blue eyes, her bangs were bent to the right and she had a round face, she was wearing my haori as a shirt and she had a green camouflage pattern skirt with long black stockings, it was not very noticeable with my haori but she was well endowed,
Yuuki: so you decided to join us?
Blondie: First I want to ask you some questions.
Yuuki: That's cool, I also want to ask you some questions.
We sat down once more and began our interrogation.
Blondie: how do you know that all of us were chosen by someone else.
Yuuki: I asked someone to select me.
Blondie: what? Why would you do something like that?
Yuuki: I have my reasons.
I take my smartphone and I show her a message that I had written which leaves her surprised.
[ They are listening to us I cannot give you more details for now ]
Yuuki: my turn, you have two pouches, what happened to the original owner.
Blondie: I was in a group before but that didn't last long, one of them killed the owner of the BIMs and I escaped at night with the guy... who attacked me.
Yuuki: I see, do you have another question?
Blondie looks between me and Kaguya several times before looking me straight in the eye.
Blondie: Okay, we can team up, but if you try something funny, I'll walk away.
Yuuki: that's fine by me, welcome to team blondie.
I extend my hand to Blondie to seal the deal with a handshake and she looks at me for a few seconds before taking my hand.
Yuuki: This girl is Kaguya and my name is-
Blondie: Gin!
Yuuki: what?
Blondie: You keep calling me Blondie so I'm going to call you Gin.
Yuuki: that works for me, for now, let's go back to base and get something to eat.
As we were all hungry there was no objection and we headed to our base, on the way we passed a waterfall and Blondie said we needed to stop, she wanted to clean her body up a bit and after warning me not to dare to peek at all she went to the waterfall with Kaguya, I took out a chocolate from my backpack and I stood guard nearby, shortly after the girls left two players appeared down the river, I could see them but they didn't notice me, I watched them for a while and they were just talking.
Blondie: What are you eating?
Yuuki: chocolate, want some?
When Blondie and Kaguya finished they walked over to me and Blondie took the chocolate bar I offered her and she turned to where I was looking, She immediately ducked when she saw the other players and she reached for one of her BIMs.
Yuuki: relax, I'm guessing you don't want to team up with them?
Blondie: of course not! They are men and one of them spied on me when I was taking a shower in the morning.
Yuuki: well that's bad, but not enough to kill them if they don't attack us first.
Blondie: Humn all men are my enemies.
Yuuki: You do know that I am a man, right?
Blondie: You look a bit like a woman so it's not that bad.
Kaguya nods repeatedly and I groan in annoyance.
Yuuki: hgr let's just go back to base.
//////////
At the base when we finished eating we sat in a circle and put all our BIMs in the middle,
We had 16 barrier types, 13 cracker types, 8 timer types, 7 burning gas types, and 7 seeker types.
The timer type ones have a timer that makes them explode after ten seconds when you activate them and you can also stop the timer by pressing the button a second time.
The burning gas type releases a large amount of acid gas that dissolves everything organic.
The seeker type has propellers and an infrared camera, the camera is used to mark a target and the BIM will fly towards it.
Before we started planning our strategy, I sent a message to Matsu to deactivate our chips to prevent the game organizers from eavesdropping on our conversation and I told Blondie it was safe to talk.
Yuuki: Very good, Blondie, have you played the BTOOOM online game?
Blondie: Y-Yes, why?
Yuuki: because this is BTOOOM in real life, in the beginning, there were thirty-two players and with eight chips to collect, only a team of four people will be able to leave the island just like in the game.
Yuuki: no team will listen to us if I tell them that I have a way out of the island if we don't first show them that we are stronger than them, that's why I need a team.
The only BIM that can do me serious damage or even kill me if it catches me off guard is the implosion-type, barrier BIMs can help me with that but I don't like to take risks, at least not most of the time.
Blondie: So why do you want the chips?
Yuuki: to attract other teams and also on this island there is someone who came here voluntarily and he is much more dangerous than everyone on this island and the chips will attract it, I think.
Blondie: I see, so what do we do now?
Yuuki: it is dangerous to exploit the island at night, better to call it a day for now.
We divided the BIMs between us to be prepared for any situation and I went up to the roof of the watchtower to stand guard, Blondie put on the shirt that was in our supplies from the day before and she played with Kaguya to kill time, the sun had set and the girls were getting ready for bed when several explosions occurred in the forest that was approaching our base.
Yuuki: Hey girls, come check this out.
blonde: what? What's going on?
Yuuki: someone is approaching the base.
Blondie ran for her BIMs and she came back to where I was with a Cracker BIM in her hand.
Blondie: they found out where we were?
Yuuki: no, they are escaping, komodo dragons come out at night on this island.
I could see two guys approaching our base and one of them was leaning on the other to walk, they were the same ones that were in the river in the afternoon, I took a burning gas BIM and when I saw the giant lizards clearly I threw the BIM in front of them, the wind moved the gas right to the lizards and when the escaping players saw that they rushed towards the watchtower, one of them had been bitten on the leg and was having trouble climbing the ladder so I held out my hand to help him and when the two of them had gone up the ladder I looked at Blondie.
Yuuki: Blondie, bring me the alcohol.
Blondie narrowed her eyes at me but she did as she was told, even though she wasn't comfortable having men near her, she wasn't heartless to ignore someone who hasn't attacked us.
Yuuki: You, hold him while I treat his wound.
The other player did as I told him and got on top of the injured guy to prevent him from moving and when I applied the alcohol that Blondie had brought me to the guy's wound, He started struggling in pain and throwing punches, while he was distracted I used my skills to heal him a bit, enough for him to be able to walk by tomorrow but not enough for him to notice anything strange.
They thanked me for the help but I didn't pay much attention to them, Blondie had entered the watchtower and she was not in a good mood and when I followed her she was sitting on the couch pouting with several BIMs next to her, she looked so cute pouting and at the same time dangerous with those bombs next to her, Kaguya was sitting in a corner knowing that it was better not to be near her at the moment, so I approached her with a smile.
