Yuzuko's perfect world is disturbed when she is forced to take part in the 30th season of Game of Mass Destruction, a reality tv show where twenty contestants have to fight robots and each other for a chance to become a billionaire. Each robot they destroy gives points, but extra points are rewarded for acts of sex and murder. Whilst Yuzuko is united with online friends, she discovers dark secrets about her family as she confronts the gameshow's owner the notorious Sia Bucks. Will she survive and become victorious or will it be a comedy of errors with violence and chaos?
Genre: FICTION / Dystopian"Get off my boyfriend!" Lavender demanded, strangling her. "Or else!"
No one expected Sia to listen to Lavender's commands – yet she did. "Or else what?" Sia tilted her head. "Nobody belongs to anybody on this island. You're all free spirits." Sia strolled to the board doodling a robot on the corner. "Now I'm sure you all know how it works. This island is inhabited with a thousand robots. Your task is to destroy them all."
Every step Sia took, Yuzuko burned up. Her fingers fidgeted and her shoulders shook. She held onto her locket hoping that her husband's spirit would watch over her. Yuzuko prayed that her infant son was safe. "You can't do this to robots!"
"Ah, Yuzuko!" Sia let out a large sigh of relief. "I can't believe I forgot about you. The beloved granddaughter of Professor Denki. Even though he's like my ex-husband and public enemy number one for me, you won't be discriminated."
"Where's Kiki?" Yuzuko asked.
"You'll have to find her. Your grandfather stole something from me thirty years ago. What I did is simply payback. But you don't need to worry about that, my poppet. The game is going to be fair." Returning to her chair, she crossed her legs and snapped her fingers. "And now ladies and gentlemen, it's time to meet Exhibit B!" The robot she summoned appeared to move with self-will. Eyes lit up fixating at the latex man. Sia clapped her hands. "This robot is just like me when I see a slice of cake.” Sia stroked the robot’s hand and pressed her lips against its cheek. “Let’s admire it’s humanoid anatomy, red eyes, metallic hands and silicone skin."
