The last thing Sunset Shimmer saw was the girl she pushed out of the way of that car. She saved someone's life, but lost her own in the process. Many would see this as the end but, to Sunset Shimmer, this was just the beginning of her new life. Now she must put said new life on the line to protect not only herself but others who share the same fate;
The fate of being chosen by the Black Ball.

A few warnings before you start reading:
• The gore/sex warnings are no joke. This has heavy gore and heavy sex. Well, as heavy as I can possibly try, this is my first attempt at exploring the "Mature" side of fanfic writing. Expect lots of swearing, though!
• I'll keep references to the original "Gantz" story to a minimum, so that people who are not familiar with Hiroya Oku's work can follow this fanfic just as much as hardcore fans such as myself.
• Don't mind the fact that Friendship Games is not part of the storyline, since I started working on this fanfic long before the movie was a thing. But I'll try and incorporate a few things as I go.
• If I need to add more warnings, I won't write them here, but in the "Author's Note" section as I keep writing "The Black Ball Room".
• As always, this has no connection to any of my previous EQG-related works.
