User blog:ConspiracyKiller825/The 259th Hunger Games

Arena
<p class="MsoNormal">The Arena is a circle of water with the cornucopia in the centre. It has the Tribute Plates around it and Rock Ledges coming off at 12, 3, 6 and 9 on a clock. The water, is surrounded by a small area of Grass. This is then surrounded by Mountains in ¼, Thick Jungle in 2/4 and in the final ¼ is water going off to an cliff island. All of this is surrounded by the force field.

<p class="MsoNormal"> The Cliff Island is a cylinder of rock coming out of the ocean and going up towards the sky. Tributes will have to climb up but there is always a rain storm towering over head. Meaning they will need to be good at climbing. It also has a rainforest on top.

<p class="MsoNormal"> <p class="MsoNormal">There are 7 Tributes in each quarter. There are some backpacks and weapons floating around the outskirts of the cornucopia.

<p class="MsoNormal"> <p class="MsoNormal">The different sections:

<p class="MsoNormal">Water/Grassland

<p class="MsoNormal"> <p class="MsoNormal">Mountains
 * Is a good section for food as the water contains fish
 * There is no water here as the water surrounding the cornucopia is salt
 * Terrible place for hiding as it’s out in the Open
 * The only shelter is the cornucopia but of course it will be the Careers main fort

<p class="MsoNormal"> <p class="MsoNormal">Jungle
 * Is terrible for food as hardly no animals will be here
 * Is dangerous as some are hard to climb and can be slippery
 * There are mutts roaming around
 * There are some gamemakers disasters
 * There is no water here
 * Good for hiding and shelter as there are caves

<p class="MsoNormal"> <p class="MsoNormal">Island – Has a Rainforest on It
 * Amazing source of food with all the jungle animals
 * There isn’t too much water here only a small lake
 * Not too great for hiding as most alliances will go here for food
 * There are mutts roaming around


 * Amazing source of food with all the animals
 * There is a good water supply as there is a big lake in the centre

Fay Alban (8)
I wake up in my beautiful bedroom. I realise that i'm sleeping on the floor and i'm sweating all over my body. I don't even remember going to sleep. Uggghhh. I get up and almost fall right over. I decide to have a shower. I'm just about to get in when my escort bangs on the door and yells five minutes! I freak out and have the quickest shower ever. I come out to see my training uniform on my bed. Was that always there? Ugghh who cares. I slip it on and run out into the dinning room. As i wasn't looking where i was going and i bash straight into my district partner, Akumai. "Sorry, I wasn't looking where i was going." "Yeah, well you should have. Stop messing around, we are leaving for the training centre in 10 so get moving." God what was his problem. Well i figured out pretty quickly that we wern't going to be allies. I scoffed down some breakfast and met Akumai at the elevator. He looked pretty disguisted at me. But i didn't need to worry about him. I knew when it came down to it, he wouldn't hurt me. Nor would I hurt him. It's a thing of honor in the outside districts. Although we don't say we are, we are kind of in a secret alliance. It was the most akward silence in the elevator. It felt so good to get out of there. We weren't late but there were already a lot of others there. I could see all the Career districts standing closely together. A few more districts came n but last was district 3 and they didn't look happy. I wondered what happened but it looked like the guy was scared of her. Anyway it wasn't my problem. The head trainer finally came down and gave us tha talk. Though we all knew what would happen. She let us go. And it was only now that i realised, that i had no alliance. I started to panic and freak out. Until i realised some tributes were staring at me. I then realised that I was still standing in my position, listening to the head trainer. God i must of looked like an idiot, get it together, I told myself. I decided to start with something i knew, plant identifcation. I thought it would be smart to show off my skills and find some alliance members. Not that it really worked, some people started to notice me but that was it. I tried the basic survival skills, like knot tying and starting a fire. But i almost burned the place down. This was because i heard that district 3 female yell out to her district parter. I heard her use the name Noma. I was shocked. That name was so fimiliar in my mind. I just couldn't remember where i'd heard it before. It was a rare name and i didn't think i knew anyone with that name. Maybe i was wrong.

It had come to day two of training. You could see some people were already in alliances. I saw Akumai go off to the Careers. God i wished i could go and strangle him. He was such a double crosser. Nobody fromd district 8 has ever gone with the Careers. But it was his choice. I knew today was going to be a big day for me. I had watched the reapings last night and had paid special attention to district 3. Then it hit me. I couldn't believe that it was happening. I saw Noma at the weights area. I walked striaght over to him. "Can i help you" "Hey, umm yes, I'm Fay, District 8" "Oh, okay well, thanks for stopping by" He walked off without another word. "I know Vennica!" I shouted at him. He turned and ran at me. Picking me up and giving me a massive hug. He then bombarded me with questions about her. I told him to calm down. I told him excatly how she was and what she was doing. He was greatful to me. "So you want to be allies?" I asked him. "You bet" he replied. He told me that he saw me yesterday at the plant idetifcation and asked for my help. Which i was happy to give. We then also did some climbing pratice which wasn't that bad. We were having fun and laughing a lot. I had never expected to find someone like this in the games. We also decided to work on some long distance weapons. So we chose the spear which is what most people would have in these games. We saw somebody was already there. She was young, probably the yougest tribute her. She looked around 12. She looked weak and upset. I decided to say hello. We actual became pretty good friends and she taught us how to use a spear well. She also was in need of an alliance so we were happy to offer. So it was me, Noma from 3 and Lucinda from 9. What a games these would be.

Lance Ampere (5)
It was the final day before individual training. You could see that the alliances were now finalised. But i wasn't in one. And that was fine since i didn't want to be. I have decided to go alone. Since i won't have to share any of my supplies or protect anyone. There also won't be any arguments and i can do whatever i want, when i want to. Though that said there is always the chance that this was a bad idea and now im dead meat. Though my gut told me that this felt right. Last year Nymph won and she was a loner but she did join an alliance halfway through. So what if i need to i will but it allows me to keep my options open. I have been mainly trianing at the survival skills and combat skills. I have also allowed myslef to go into the pool once though, i nearly drowned. Just becuase you could never know if water will be involved. The Careers this year are massive and have a lot of tributes from outside districts. I could see numbers like 8, 11 and 13. 13, now that was an interesting number. They came second last year and were very close to first. It just goes to show anyobdy can do well in the hunger games. Though i was a little dissapointed that district 5 did so poorley last year. I didn't really know Brandon but i knew that he was a nice guy. I wanted to win for my family, but also a part of me wanted to win for district 5. We haven't done so well latley and I hope to win so nobody forgets who we are. Now i just need a good training score.

Annabeth Elosegui (2)
The final day was coming to a close. Us Careers were ready. We were ready for the challenge and the Hunger Games. We of course had been flaughting our skills to everyone. Nobody or any alliance were a match for us. Though i knew we couldn't get cocky or we could become the worst alliance ever. I thought we had a good, strong alliance. That would mean better odds and more sponsors. Not that we'd need them. I can see some strong and smart people in other alliances. They would be useful to us. But since they won't side with us, we must just take them out first. But there are others who won't need us to kill them. Such as the stupid pair from 6. They will probably get eaten by a mutt or eat a poisonus plant or something. Though i do have to remember last years games. Plus we cold have the exact same problem. We have a bit of anger issues between Ryan (1) and Aurum (2). Of course i support Aurum (2) more. He has alos been decided as the leader of our alliance. I think it will be good, him as our leader. He knows what to do and how to do things. Plus im the co-leader, so when we don't have Aurum (2) i'll be in charge. Which is great. I didn't want that wirdeo of a girl, Amanda (1) to have it. I don't really like her. She looks like a spoilt brat that got whatever she wanted becuase of her beauty. Well beauty won't go far in this alliance especially with so many people. Honestly, I hope she gets take out in the bloodbath like the distirct 1 female did last year. She is weak and useless and may have to be eliminated. I even let Aurum (2) know my thoughts. He tells me to wait and if she's still alive on day 2, he'll come up with a plan. I hope so. I would love to put my machete through her face. The head trainer called out time and we all headed back up to our rooms. I knew that me and Aurum (2) had to get the best scores tomorrow or we'd be targeted.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
Today was the final day to show off my skills to the gamemakers but more importantly sponsors. I slept alright, but had a wired dream about the games. Though it was nothing to waste my time on. I got ready and met Ryan (1) and our mentors at breakfast. They gave us some final advice before we headed off. I knew that Ryan (1) was a big threat, which made him such a valuble ally. He has told me his plan for the bloodbath and I still am having a hard time processing it. We talk about it in the elevator. "You can't leave the Careers, Ryan. With Aurum in charge they will hunt for you straight away." "Yeah, well im not waiting around for him to get angry and kill me. And to be honest if Bronze had been smarter last year, he would've done the same." "What will you do?" "Set up traps and hunt people down, I can't get caught up with Aurum like Bronze did. That's what got him killed.... You could come with me." "Really?" "Yeah, come on with me out of the way they will kill, Amanda. I need your help, plus you need mine." "Hmmmmhh, Okay." "Really?" "Yes, Yes of course i'll come with you." And with that the elevator opened. Everyone was on time. It was bad enough how long some people had to sit here, people didn't want to make it worse. First of course the Capitol girl went. All the Careers were together, though i didn't participate much in the convosation. I was too distracted by what would happen if i did or didn't go with Ryan. I briefly heard Max who is/was in my alliance get called to go. I started to get a good head space. I just had to show them, all the skills I had. In my eyes this could be the deciding factor on who wins these games. "Amanda Selkirk" I heard from the speakers. The Careers halfheartedly wished me good luck. I heard Ryan say something but i didn't hear it. I walked in the room to see a lot of peacekeepers dumping rubbish bags in the bin. You could easily see they were full of dummies. I guess Max (C) really went all out. Now i had to do the same. "Amanda Selkirk, District 1." I called out. "Your time begins now." I had been secretly practicing my knot tying with Ryan. I got 10 dummies and hanged them from the ceiling. I then got my Throwing Knives and went crazy. Running around, and throwing the knives right into their chests. I could see the gamemakers were kind of impressed but weren't wowed. That would change. I got my sword and sliced every dummies head off in one, single, swift motion. I then went to the electrical station and set up the bomb. I chose one dummy and used the kinfe already in it's chest the cut a deep hole. I shoved the bomb inside. I walked back to the front and took a bow. ight on cue the bomb exploded. I walked out with a massive smile on my face. I could hear a few claps from the audience. They were impressed.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
I was so tred, bored, hungry and thirsty. God they needed to put something in here for us to do. I know that they get bored but so do we. I wouldn't be suprised if they were sleeping, since everyone knows that by District 5, the gamemakers are over it. I know that I would be. It would be such a boring job. But then again, they probably don't have the choice of what they got to do. Fay (8) had recently gone in for his session. He has such a soothing voice. I can see why he is a therapist. One day I might see him about my parents. Until i realised that was insane becuase it was either me or him coming out, not both of us. "Lucinda Irongate." It was my time. I hadn't really put a lot of thought into what I was going to do. But i was going to try my hardest. I didn't want a bad score making me look weak. I wanted to prove myself, not only to the Capitol but to Noma (3) and Fay (8) as well. "District 9, Lucinda Irongate" My District partner, Parker (9) had reminded me to say that. He was a nice guy and wouldn't be a bad ally I thought. But now wasn't the time. "Your time begins now." I could tell she was trying not to fall asleep. I first of all went to the spear station. I threw the best I could, getting the bullseye more times then I expected. I then set up a trap that I had been using over the last few days in training. I threw a dummy into it. It got tied up, feet first. I then grabbed a weapon nobody really ever uses. Ninja Stars. I threw them at the dummies head, getting his face every time. They yelled "Time." I walked out but looked to see there faces. They weren't over whelmed but they hadn't expected that. And that was what I was going for.

Kasha Rye (12)
I knew that my chances at a good score were long gone. It had been over 2 hours since these sessions, had began. I had just said good luck to my last alliance member in the room. Jake (11) seemed like a good ally to have. He knew a lot more then he was letting on. I could tell that he was a little reserved. But each day, you could see he was feeling more relaxed and comfortable. Eventually he would open up and let everyone know what he was thinking. But that could never happen. He is always absent in our convostaions, there but in his own world. It's maybe not such a bad thing, but anyone could tell he was scared about going into the arena in two days time. I hoped he went alright with his private session. "Kasha Rye" It was my time. I didn't bother to say anything to my district partner. We seem just to hate each other. We both come from different worlds and don't like each other. Which is fine because if all goes well, i'll never see him again after the gong sounds. "Kasha Rye, Distrct 12." I tied to say it as entuiastictly as i could. "Your time begins now" she mumbled back. I asked for a trainer. I showed all the martial arts skills that I had learnt. Kicks, punches, jumps, i did whatever i thought would look interesting. Realising i was running out of time, I ran over to the dummies. I did the best knot i could to tie the dummy from the ceiling. I grabbed a sword and went slicing. I got a few good hits in but then as I swung my sword back around, one last time, the knot untied it self and the dummy fell straight on top of me. I heard laughter all around me. This furiated me. I just had my sword and just kept stabbing the dummy as more and more blood ran out. "Time" they called. I walked out, dissapointed. I probably looked like a vampire.

Training Scores and Odds
The gamemakers were again hard on some tributes this year. Though they were leniant with others. This was their 6th staright year in a row (same gamemakers as last year) and were getting bored. They thought these scores and odds would spice things up.

Reia Sunrise (4)
The time was coming. It was time to see how everyone went in their private training sessions. I felt nervous and even scared. What would happen if i got a 2? I would be dead just like Hana. No i couldn't freak out, i needed to be calm and prepared for what was ahead. We'd already had dinner and were starting to take our seats on the couch. I could see the prep teams on each end of the couch, with Nymph and her husband Brooklyn who mentored her. I sat down next to Nymph who had been chosen to mentor me this year. I did trust her but she seemed more interested in Allan (4) then me. I tried to remember last year's games and what score Nymph had recieved. I couldn't remember seeing it but i knew it wasn't very high. "Nymph, what was your score last year?" "Ummm I believe it was a 7" "Ohh" I say. Then the screen turns on. It starts with the Capitol. The girl recieves a 6. I started to panic since that was a pretty low score. Then Max (C) recieved a 10. Everyone was shocked. Then came more 10's throughout Districts 1 and 2. But everyone was shocked when Aurum recieved a 9. He wouldn't be happy, especially since Ryan recieved a 10. District 3 didn't do so bad with an 8 and 9. Then came my turn. I didn't realise I was shutting my eyes and gritting my teeth. I heard him say "With a score of 7". I opened my eyes. And looked around. My prep team acted like I did great. Though my mentors obviously disaggred. They didn't say anything, they hardly even looked at me. I wanted to storm off but not without hearing how Allan went. "Allan, with a score of 9." I heard him exahale and everyone gave him a clap. I stormed off and cried in my bedroom. I couldn't wait to prove Nymph wrong. I didn't care about what they thought, I was doing this for Hana and nobody was going to stop me. I never saw anyone again until the next morning.

Lena O'Connor (7)
It was amzing how well the Careers were going. They basically all had 10's or 9's. But i couldn't worry about them when I was already sweating off half my body weight over my own score. I had just seen both of the District 6 tributes to recieve the low score of 6. I started to get anxious. Then started to call my name... "with a score of 9" I couldn't believe it. I jumped up and screamed. Though i realised that may have been selfish to do in front of Jayson. "Jayson, with a score of 8." Everyone was shocked and congratulated him. "Congratulations" i said to him. "Didn't do so bad yourself" he said. I was over joyed though now i was more interested in finding out what my alliance members got. "Lavender, with a score of 6", "Casper, with a score of 8", "Kalmah, with a score of 8". Not bad. Me, Kalmah and Casper had all manged at least an 8 or above, which was great. Meaning that our alliance now looked like a threat to people. Though Lavender had recieved a 6. She was becoming dead weight even before we had stepped inside the arena. I thought about how she had gone in training. I would have to discuss it with Casper and Kalmah but i personal think Lavender shouldn't make it past the bloodbath. And i would love the honor. Everyone celebrated into the night. These would definatley be a interesting games.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
It was my last night in the Capitol, but just hopefully not forever. Everyone had just had their interviews. I thought i went well, talking mainly about myself and Bronze. Making sure that I didn't slip up and tell anyone my plan to escape the Careers. It was hard to believe exactly one year ago Bronze was in this room, doing the exact same things as me. He was an awesome cousin to have. I couldn't stop thinking about him. How had he lost that batte with Nathaniel. He had been doing so great. But is suppose maybe he got scared or something. I had lied a little to Amanda in the elevator two days ago. When i said that i wasn't focused on Aurum. That was of course definetly not true. He was the one i was going to think about everyday for the next two weeks. But i'm sure Amanda saw through my lie anyway. It's not a secret that i hate him. I jumped as someone banged on my door. I could already guess who it was. "Hi Amanda", i said after opening the door. "You Ready?" she asked. "No. but we don't have a choice." We disscussed our plan for the bloodbath. We of course had no idea of the arena or where our pedestals would be placed. But we tried to keep our options open. "I'll see you tomorrow" she said while walking out. It felt right going for a two person alliance. Especiallly with Amanda. We didn't have any problem with each other. And after we take out Annabeth tomorrow at the bloodbath, Aurum won't be able to hold both of us off.

Casper Ware (10)
Today is the beginning of the Hunger Games. I was still in shock that my name was called out of the reaping ball. But that time was long gone now. I was changed into my arena uniform and was all ready for the beginning. I knew that I had to get supplies and meet up with my allies. Without either I wouldn't last much longer then two days. I was talking to my stylist about the arena. He says they are considerbly close to last years outfits. I remember last years arena. Water, Mountain and Jungle. To be honest i wouldn't be too suprised if there was water. They are the same gamemakers and like the same things. But it wouldn't be good for a lot of tributes. Myself, well im not too bad at swimming but im not great like the District 4 tributes. There was 20 seconds to launch. I say goodbye and step inside. 10 seconds to launch. I needed to focus because as soon as the gong went there was nothing I could do. The tube started rising. I was going up and up. The bright sunlight blinded me. I opened my eyes. I looked towards the corncuopia. All the pathway was water. I could see that behind the corncuopia was Jungle. I turned behind me to see Mountain terrain. I also could see more water leading off towards a cliff. I didn't need to decide where to go, my alliance would do that. There was 30 seconds left. I looked to my left and almost fell off my plate. It was the District 1 Male, Ryan. I also had Lucinda the District 9 girl on my right. I knew for a fact that i was swimming to my right. 17 seconds left, 16, 15, 15, 15... What was going on? The countdown had stopped. Everyone else was doing the same. Then an announcment came. "Hello Tributes in the 259th Year of the Hunger Games. Well we have decided to ramp up the bloodbath for more action. As you may see the corncuopia is different. It's a two-storey greenhouse. We have decided to give you all a weapon ad something you disire. On the first floor is the usual corncuopia. On the second floor is a backpack for each of you. It contains a wepon and something you disire in these games. Yo may only grab your own backpack unless you want your hand to become meat. Happy Hunger Games, Tributes. May the Odds be Ever in Your Favour." Oh God. That meant for deaths. As much as I wanted my backpack do I risk it. I guess i'll decide in the sper of the moment.

5, 4, 3, 2, 1, GONG!!!

Mill Haper (6)
I couldn't move. I was frozen with fear. The gong had sounded at least 20 seconds ago. I didn't know what to do. I couldn't see Matthew anywhere. I was getting nervous. We had agreed that he would find me and if I could, I would get supplies. I was still undecided to go for my special backpack or even just a normal backpack in the water. I was still looking for Matt. I could see some action already taking place. There were some heated battles especially near the stairs to the second level. I still hadn't moved since I stepped inside my tube. It was like my mind still thought the mines were activated. I decided that since it wouldn't matter, I yelled out for Matt. Hoping that he was just lost and not dead. I screamed. As i looked down and saw a hand on my ankle. I relaised that it must be Matt. So i stuck out my hand and he grabbed it. Only it wasn't Matt. It was Annabeth from District 2. "I hope he see's this" she said. I started screaming and crying. She had grabbed my neck and pulled me down under the water. I was kicking and screaming evn though I was under water. It wasn't long before my last air bubbles left my mouth. '''BOOM!!! '''I knew I never had a chance.

Kalmah XXIV (12)
I have just heard the first cannon. There of course is no way I can know who it was. But it's not like a care. As long as it's not me. I have just reached the cornucopia. I knew there was no time wasting on these stupid junk on the bottom level I had to get to the top. I checked nobody was watching and ran inside. There were many bags remaining, including my district partners. I grabbed it and looked inside. It contained a deadly Trident and a Map showing the location of who knows what. All I know is that it's something I desire. I now needed some supplies and my alliance members. I start running towards the stairs and try to catch a glimpse of who's bags are gone. But with not looking where I was going, I run into someone. I look up to see Allan, the District 4 male. I was shocked and speechless. He must of grabbed a weapon on the first level because he had a sword. He wasted no time in swinging at my head. I was just lucky enough to dodge. All I had was a Trident. A weapon I knew he would be able to beat. I stabbed at him but he was faster. He had gotten behind me. I turned around but was too late. I saw the glimpse of the sword rush right into the right side of my skull. '''BOOM!!! '''He better not take my supplies!

Savera Hayes (11)
These stupid Tributes were putting up a fight. Us Careers were giving it all we had and were hardly making kills. But as far as I knew, none of us were dead. I needed to see my backpack but was greated with a pleasent surpirse. I saw Allan towering over a dead body. You could tell he was searching for his supplies. He'd bascally wiped him clean, including his Jacket so nobody else could have it. We didn't really trust each other but we were allies and we wouldn't hurt each other yet. I jumped over the dead body and ran to my bag. I started untieing and decided to make conversation. "So, who was he?" I asked. "Kalmah, District 12" he replied. "Did he give you any trouble?" I asked. "No, piece of cake." he replied. And the next thing I knew he was gone. It didn't bother me though, he seemed too confident and to be honest I was worried that he would betray me then and there. I looked inside my bag, it contained a bunch of arrows and a box of matches. For fun, I lit one and threw it onto Kalmah while leaving. Maybe now, nobody else could retrieve their bags. I ran downstaris to find a Bow. After rumaging through a pile, I found what I was looking for. I heard a noise. I turned, Bow and Arrow at the ready. It was Lucinda from District 9. She looked scared but I knew that was crap. I let the arrow fly towards her. Though Fay from District 8 jumped out of nowhere and tackled Lucinda. They both went through the glass and down into the water. I got another arrow ready but someone came up behind me. He was holding a blowgun. I couldn't remember his name but he was from District 3. He loaded the blowgun and let it riped through the air. I was lucky to doge just in time. I jumped behind a pile of supplies and got my arrows ready. It reminded me of a child's game with two forts shooting at each other hoping for the target to land but none of them did. I decided that I was the Career and I needed to act like one. I got up and walked towards the pile he was hiding behind. I went around and stopped. He was holding a spear and smiling. I shot the arrow at him but it missed. He threw the spear so quickly into my chest that there was nothing I could do. '''BOOM!!! '''How could've I died in the bloodbath?

Ryan Lucrian (1)
A few deaths had taken place but me and Amanda hadn't had any issues so far. We had met up at the base of the corncuopia quickly grabbed some food and water for the road. We put it into a backpack as well as grabbing another back pack each. We also thought it would be better to get a wepon now incase we were attacked. We both grabbed a sword. We started making our way towards the stairs. Some battles were going on but we passed by as if they didn't even exist. The plan was for me to go up and get my backpack while Amanda corner Annabeth towards the stairs. I would come down and kill her then Amanda would go and grab her bag and we would leave for the Mountains. It was more simpler then it sounded. So I said a quick goodbye and ran with all my speed to the stairs and up. I coughed and chocked on the fumes. It was so smoky and hot. I wanted to throw up. I looked and saw a line of fire blcking off the bags. But as i looked closer there was a space inbetween for me to get through. I guess the gamemakers added it for extra fun. I ran through being careful not to touch the flame and looked for my bag. I just grabbed it and ran but not before seeing that Annabeth's bag was gone. Which meant she had a wepon useful to herself. I ran back through the space and down the stairs. I couldn't see Amanda or Annabeth anywhere. I started running around the cornucopia when I saw them battling. Anabeth had a machete. Which was great because I hadn't seen her practice in training often with one. I ran up behind her and pulled out a Trident from my bag. I stabbed for her back but she dodged and kicked me in the face. Amanda came up and punched her in the skull. It didn't do any damage but it made her fuirous. Both of the dropped their weapons and had a full hand combat fight. It was getting ugly too. There was no way I could get in to help without them ripping off my face. I decided to throw my trident towards Annabeth's back. It missed but she'd seen it. I yelled at Amanda to leave the fight and to go for her backpack on the second level. And since Annabeth was coming for me, nothing was stopping her. Annabeth had picked up my trident and started coming at me. I blocked it and repayed the favour of kicking her in the face. I followed it up by a kick to the chest. She was knocked off her feet and onto the ground. I grabbed the trident off her and raised it high above her head. I was about to throw it, until Amanda came running up behind me holding her bag and sweating over-time. She told me that Aurum was coming and we had to move. I dropped my trident and me and Amanda left Annabeth for another day. We jumped into the water and hoped nobody would follow us towards the mountains.

Lavender Morton (10)
I had risine into the arena knowing that I would be okay in this bloodbath. I had my alliance member, Lena from District 7 on my left. We had met up and slowly swam towards the rockly ledge. We were taking our time so that we wouldn't be targeted. We had only just reached the stairs for the second level as we were on the other side of the cornucopia. We now started running, realising that our time was coming to a close. We still had to get out and find the rest of our alliance. We were met with a wall of fire and a room of fumes and smoke. Immediantly we started coughing and crying. Lena had found an opening in the fire and we ran through. Finding ur bags as quickly as possible and getting back out and down the stairs. I tried to get the fumes out of my system and wiped the tears out of my eyes. I looked inside my bag. It contained a lovely Sword and a Map that showed the location of something. Though i hoped it was water or food. Lena had a Hachet and a list, though she wouldn't reveal what was on it. I was curious but now wasn't the time. I couldn't see anybody but Careers around. So we would have to find Casper and Kalmah later if they weren't dead already. Lena suggested we headed off towards the Island in the distance. I wasn't sure, swimming definetly wasn't my best strength. I suggested the Jungle but Lena wouldn't budge. She said if I didn't want to, I could leave and go and die. To be honest I would've loved to leave her but I needed her help so I agreed. "Though Lavender, your training score of a 6 was pathetic and you are making our alliance look like a easy target. If we want that to stop, you must be eliminated." she said. "What?" I replied. I knew what was coming next. I turned and ran towards the stairs just before her Hachete took my head off. I made the life killing deision of running up the stairs. I knew I had nowhere to go and could never beat her in a battle. I hoped maybe it was just a power move to get me out of the allaince and maybe she left owards the Island or something. But unfortunatley that wasn't the case. She'd followed me up and wanted blood. She started swining her Hachete towards me head. I was blocked by the fire. I swung my Sword but my eyes were in so much pain that i hit the wall. I knew the Hachet was coming before it reached arm. I screamed getting more toxic fumes in my mouth. I heard her laugh as she kicked me in the chest and I fell back and down into the fire. '''BOOM!!! '''How could she have done this to me?

Max Knightmare (C)
For me nothing much had happened in this bloodbath. It was pretty pathetic. I had hardly actual seen another tribute. I had had a few tributes think they could take me on but they had only got injured not killed. It bothered me that some Careers were still just sitting around doing nothing as if it was Day 3 already. If it was up to me, i'd kill them. But i knew that would only get me killed. But just because we were a big alliance doesn't mean were safe. In the Hunger Games you are never safe until the last cannon sounds and I will be there to hear it. I was walking around looking for any better weapons since some Careers were still fighting and they didn't need my help plus most alliances and tributes were long gone by now, if they had any sense. But some of them didn't. I heard the sound of falling metal crashing against the floor. I ran towards it with my Sword and Trident at the ready for anything or one. I saw a girl rush towards the water. But she wasn't getting away, not on my watch. I dived into the water after her. I easily caught her as she was a terrible swimmer. I got my sword and sliced her throat open. '''BOOM!!! '''Though I knew she was dead, I kept stabbing for more and more blood until all the water around me was red. I decided to get back to my lazy Career friends as there could always be sharks in the water. She had nothing valuble on her and I had no idea who she was, probably from an outline District. Oh well, tonight I would know. Not that I cared who I killed anyway.

Aurum Chirp (2)
I wanted to rip Ryan's head off with my bare hands. I had been spending most of the bloodbath making sure Annabeth wasn't dead and that was all thanks to him. If Amanda hadn't of seen me, he would be up in the sky tonight but no sir. He had to be annoying and go and survive day 1. I hadn't got to make any kills yet and niether had I grabbed my backpack. I decided to waste no more time. I did have a sword and a spear in case someone was lurking in the shadows but I new nobody would be dumb enough to still be here. But maybe I was wrong. I was about to start walking up the stairs when I heard footsteps coming down. It could've been a Careers but it didn't seem like it. I could also tell that there was more then one person. I tried to remeber who had left the bloodbath. I had made it a fact that I knew who everyone was in the games so that I knew how many tributes were left at all times. But it could've been anybody. I quickly slammed against the wall outside the stairs, hiding so they thought the coast was clear. I saw two females walk out. I jumped in front of them and scared them to death. I could see that it was Erika from the Capitol and Nichole from District 5. They weren't expecting to see me. They were frozen by fear and were weponless. I got my sword and sliced Nichole's stomach open. She fell to her knee's in pain. I then got my spear and stabbed Erika right through her face to the back of her skull. '''BOOM!!! '''She was dead in an instant. I then asked Nichole for all her supplies. She handed over her backpack. I gave her thanks and stabbed her in the back with my sword. '''BOOM!!! '''She should've seen that coming. I also grabbed Erika's bag and shoved them both into my Jacket. I ran up stairs and grabbed me own bag. I noticed that there were still a lot of bags to be collected. I wondered if the gamemakers would take them away, though I doubted it. I got out of there as quickly as I could. I hoped maybe the gamemakers or a sponsor would help us get rid of the fire sooner or later. It could eventually kill us all but I knew the gamemakers had it under control. So i had gone from 0 to 2 kills. It must've been my lucky day.

Akumai Kubaya (8)
The bloodbath was coming to a close. We'd just heard two straight cannons whcih was good for us Careers. We were deciding to regroup and see who hadn't made it. Of course the first thing we noticed was that Ryan and Amanda from District 1 were missing. But Aurum said that was better then if they were here. To be honest I don't blame them leaving, if they had of asked me to come I wouldn't have refused. We also noticed that Savera from District 11 wasn't with us. Because of her District some of us thought that maybe she'd escaped for her safety. But Allan (4) said he saw her get her bag and wasn't planning on escpaing or attacking him. Reia who had done nothing all bloodbath confirmed that Noma from District 3 had killed her. Which meant that our alliance had gone from 10 to 7. Which nobody seemed worried about. Since Aurum confirmed we were still the highest alliance by 3 Tributes. It felt good to be on the winning alliance. We started gathering supplies and weapons. Aurum was looking for a bucket to put out the fire on level two of the corncuopia. I was sorting out a pile of junk when another male tribute jumped out from behind and made a run for the water. I only had my Trident on me and I knew that I would miss from so far back. As well as being a bad swimmer myself, I didn't see the point risking my life to kill him. Though Max (C) had seen and he was furious. He started yelling how he couldn't believe I had done nothing. The last thing I heard was him saying I wasn't worther of being a Career before he brought his Trident around and threw it into stomach. It hadn't gone too deep but before I could do anything else, he brought his Sword out and buried it deep into my skull. '''BOOM!!! '''"So what, now we have 6. We still have 2 more Tributes then any other alliance" - Max Knightmare

Jayson Huff (7)
'''BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! BOOM!!! '''I stopped to catch my breath. The bloodbath was finally over and what a close call it was for me. If Akumai had of come after me, I would be one of those cannons. But for some reason he hadn't and maybe he had paid the price for it. I hadn't stopped running for the past 20 minutes. I had seen a lot of deaths through my hiding space. The worse was Savera. Since I was 5 cm away from Noma and if he had of seen me. Anyway, I knew that I would be doing best in the Jungle. I also knew that so would be everybody else. I had been able to get my backpack as well as few extra knives for defence. It felt so good to have an axe so early in the games. I also had a Map. I had no idea what it was showing me but it was in the Jungle sector and I was close by. I was hoping for shelter or water so I followed the Map. It was so stuffy and hot in this section. I had no water and was having no luck finding my mark. I guess i'd figure it out tomorrow. I decided to go towards the mountains where it would be cooler. To be honest I was a little shocked at what my Disrict partner Lena did to that poor girl. I think she's gone crazy. I'm soo glad that I'm not in her alliance, she would be a nightmare. I knew tomorrow that I had to find water and food because i've seen nothing at all. I hoped my Map wasn't a Joke.

Allan Seashore (4)
God what kind of an idiot kills an alliance member. "We still needed numbers to beat other alliances" I said in the argument. "Allan, calm down we still have the most okay?" Max said. "Not if we keep killing each other off!" I replied. That shut him up. To be honest it was his grave he was digging. Now that everyone knew what he was capable of. Everyone now felt threatened and scared by him. We were starting to put out the fire and were hoping to see who hadn't collected their bags. It took a while and was starting to get dark before we had put it out. Some Careers like Reia and Odin still hadn't collected their bags. I was about to grab it for them before my brain stopped me. I called them up for them to grab them. Also some of the outer Districts bags were still here. I decided to put a pile of supplies in the entrance so we'd know if anyone came back. Everyone was getting tired and bored. I saw Reia sitting with a Knife, carving her name into it. I decided to go and make sure she was okay. She'd hardly said a word since the games started. I told her to come for dinner and she didn't refuse. Her encarving was beutiful I wondered how she got so talented. Today had been an interesting day but nobody could know what tomorrow would bring. I just hoped the Careers still had 6 members.

Casper Ware (10)
I couldn't believe it! It was the end of Day 1 in the arena and I already had a missing alliance member as well as a dead District partner and alliance member. Now here I was stuck with Lena, trechering up the mountains. I had been lucky to find her though. I found her running down the stairs chocking and crying. She grabbed my arm and pulled me into the water yelling run, run! It wasn't until we were in the mountain sector that she told me what had happened. She said Annabeth was up  on the second level and had killed Lavender to Lena's surprise. She escaped as fast as she could hoping she wouldn't get caught. It made sense but my gut told me something was wrong with her picture. Nobody had tried to come after us or shoot something at us, well not that I saw. We were hoping not to see Kalmah in the sky tonight but we couldn't be sure. Luckily we did have a little food and some water to last us the first few nights. I had refused the urge to open my bag. I was waiting until we had settled down. Since if it was good and benefited me, I didn't want to share it with Lena. We had decided to rest in one of the many caves down near the bottom of the mountains. We set up camp and got ready for the night. Of course we had nothing to help us sleep but there was nothing we could do. I opened my bag while Lena was outside starting a small fire. It contained an Axe and a Map with a few marked spots across it. I knew i'd wait until tomorrow to figure out what they were. But i had to be careful. Not only of Lena but everyone else would go Map hunting tomorrow, there could definetly be more than one cannon.

Acacia Paragon (3)
Thank god, I was still alive. It was finally the end of the bloodbath and the end of Day 1. Everything had ben such a blur. It was hard to believe that this time yesterday I was eating an all you can eat buffet and now i'm lucky to get a scrap of food. Our alliance sucks at hunting. We barley have enough for one person let alone, four. I was starting to see no reason to keep any of them alive. But I knew they would help protect me as well as get me sponsors because of my young age. Well they had another thing coming their way. They definetly needed to be ready for when I attacked or there would only hear cannons. Though our alliance was pretty lucky to be together, well almost. I had been on the left of Kasha at the bloodbath. Jake and Parker were also not too far away. Though we had been so close, we had lost Erika and Nichole. We had seen them both together at the bloodbath but were blocked by Max (C) and Aurum (2). So we could do nothing but to escape and hoped they found us later. Though we were happy to know they were together and would protect each other. But of course in the back of our minds we knew that they could also be dead. With Parker as our leader, he lead us into the Jungle section. We knew of course that it would be boiling and God, no other word could describe it. But we knew that tomorrow we would be able to find some water and hunt down some good food. I just hope we had sponsor because if this food kept up, we'd be dead too soon.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
The time was finally coming. The time to see who had been killed. I was with Ryan high up in the mountains. We had decided to go hiking for a while as we had many supplies that we had taken from the corncuopia. We also thought it would be safer for the first few days. It was such a shame, not knowning that Annabeth's or Aurum's picture was going to be in the sky tonight. Me and Ryan were hoping that maybe someone else had got to them. We knew that there had been quite a few deaths, which meant these games were really on. I remembered last years games and how there was never a day without a single death. Who knew? It could be the same this year. We started eating our food and drinking our water with a nice warm fire, under the beautiful stars. It felt and looked so real. You could also most forget that you were in the Hunger Games arena. But it was broken by the start of the anthem.

The Fallen

The Capitol - Erika Danyie

District 5 - Nichole Peyton

District 6 - Mill Haper

District 8 - Akumai Kubaya

District 10 - Lavender Morton

District 11 - Savera Hayes

District 12 - Kalmah XXIV

District 13 - Goddess Lynx

Wow. I couldn't believe that with the number of the Careers they had, two of them had died. I wasn't interested in Savera as she was easily gone but Akumai seemed like a threat to be a Victor. It was just interesting to see how people acted differently from training. It was also intersting to see that a lot of tributes had died from other alliances. Anyway, they weren't my problem. Tomorrow would be a new day, where Ryan and I would set up traps around the arena. I would also be preparing for the next time I came face to face with Annabeth. And God would she be dead meat.

Noma Ambrose (3)
Ugghh. Water was all through my mouth. My arms and legs were aching and I could barely keep my eyes open. I couldn't believe it had taken all day to get to the island. It had felt like a good idea at the time, but what we hadn't known was that we had to climb a cliff that if we slipped off, we were dead. As well as there being a storm overhead. God, I literally felt death coming for me. I could barely see who had died but I knew that it wasn't my anyone in my alliance. I couldn't see where Lucinda and Fay were. To be honest, i'm more scared that there going to die and I'm going to be left alone. I can finally feel the edge that would lead me to safety, hopefully. I was almost there when my footing slipped and I dug my hands down hard into the earth below. Though it didn't stop me from falling backwards it slowed down the process and I was able to find a foothold. I stood there for a minute, knowing that could've been my death. I quickly scramble up and over the ledge and onto the island. I heaved a sigh of relief. I opened my eyes, expecting to be stabbed with rain. But all I saw were trees. I got up and looked around to see that it was some kind of forest, more of a rainforest. I almost yelled out as I knew this place had to contain water and animals. It was amazing and beautiful, if only I wasn't here in the Hunger Games arena. I knew that I had to find my allies. I yelled out hoping to be heard. I heard a rustle in the bushes behind me and I backed away, with my spear ready for anything. Then I saw Lucinda jump out and run to me. She was crying and almost knocked me off my feet when she hugged me. At first, I thought she had been attacked but she seemed physicaly okay. Then I realised that Fay must'nt have made it. I yelled out, screaming her name. "God, I'm over here." she said as she walked up behind me. I ran and hugged her. We knew that we were safe, for now. No other alliances would have come here. So we had the whole island to ourselves. Tomorrow we would find out what existed out here. But now was time to rest because tomorrow anybody could come here.

Matthew Haper (6)
Huhhh. Oh my God. Tears filled my eyes, my sister was dead. I let them roll down my cheeks and hit the ground below. I hadn't protected her. I hadn't even seen her for one last time. I couldn't believe it. She was out of my life for good. I had a knife in my hand. I was starting to consider, plunging it deep into my chest. Then I would be with her forever. But I knew she would want me to do this for her. I couldn't let grief and anger beat me. I had to survive this. Tomorrow I would have to find my survival needs, or my sister would be seeing me soon. I knew I was no candidate to win this sick game. But when death came, I hope it came quickly. Maybe tomorrow i'd be seeing my sister, and would that be such a bad thing?

Odin Amarth (13)
Another day in the arena had started. Another day of torture and trying to survive. Last night we'd heard no cannons, which meant there were still only 20 tributes left trying to become th Victor. The sun was riseing and the heat was starting to set in. We were going through our supplies for water and food. Since we knew if we had enough in the morning, it would last us all day. As we were finishing off, we heard a familar sound. The sound of a parachute. We all turned around to see it land in the centre of the corncuopia. It had the name, Max Knightmare flashing on it. I wondered why he needed to be sponsored so early. He looked inside and pulled out his gift. It was a huge bottle containing deadly poison. That was wired. Why would he need that? He would only be able to use it at close range and we were the only ones near by. That freaked me out. Especially since it was Max who had it. He could poison any of our waters or even just us when we were alseep.I knew I had to be extra careful and have my guard up twenty-four, seven. We all went to sit down and discuss what we would be doing today. Of course we had to decide weather to go hunting. We knew that it would be the best idea and could end up killing some alliances. So it was agreed but not all of us were going. It was either me or Reia who had to stay behind and defende the cornucopia. Of course much to my disliking I was chosen to protect the corncucopia. Only because I was stronger then Reia and would do a better job. But I knew it was because they didn't trust me and didn't want me to do anything stupid. They left towards the mountains in Aurum's direction. Once they were out of sight, I knew I had to destroy Max's bottle of poison. Since now I knew for sure that I was the most hated Career by everyone. But I couldn't find it. I looked literally everywhere. I even looked on the second level. I looked to see who's bags hadn't be collected. There was a District 6, 8, 9 and 11 bag. Not that I cared since I couldn't do anything with them. I eventually gave up, knowing that my life was in trouble. I had to do something to Max before he did something to me.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
We knew it was time to go. We had just seen the Career alliance leave the cornucopia and come towards the mountains. Amanda and I knew that we had to get out and in to the Jungle before they could find us. Luckily we were going in a south-west direction, while they were going a north-wast direction. We knew that we were high on everyone's kill list and nowhere would be safe for more than 12 hours. So we knew that everyday we had to be on the move. But was that really a bad thing? With our great skills, me and Amanda were going to set up some traps for not only food but tributes as well. We knew it would keep us safe while allowing us to kill whoever got in the way. We had finally reached the edge of the Jungle and automaticly we felt the great power of the heat. But we knew that we either had to put up with it or become the Careers next victim. The Jungle had a unique quiet sound with the hum of bugs and animals. We trechered through bushes and mud. It wasn't long before we came across some freshly made tracks. We decided to followed them and see what we could find. It lead to find a small spring lake with beautiful clean water. The tribute who had created the tracks must have slipped away. But we didn't care, as this was all we needed. First of all we found a good tree to spend the night, out of sight and in cover. We set up a few traps for food, making sure that nobody was around. We then set up a trap for tributes. It was one of those lovely traps that pulled the tribute up by their foot and left them dangaling for us to kill. It was perfect as well as being safe for Amanda and myself. It hadn't taken too long but it was coming to midday and if the Careers were still on their hunt they could be here any second. Amanda was my lookout but I heard them before she alerted me. I quickly finished hiding the trap underneath the mud and ran behind a tree. I wasn't breathing and was sucking in my gut as far as it would go. I heard Max complaining that he was hungry and thirsty. "Shut up, Max!" yelled Aurum. "Aurum, it's okay. Look why don't we just go back and get some food and water and cool off for a while. We can come back later today when all the tributes will be collecting water." said Annabeth. "Fine!, Whatever." replied Aurum. I heard them walking towards the corncuopia and a let a small sigh of relief. But I heard something and footsteps coming towards me. "Look, footsteps. Someone has been here." said Aurum. He was only 3 metres away from me and if he cam forward or looked closely to his right, I was dead. "Aurum! That tribute is probably long gone by now, so come on." yelled Allan. I heard him mutter something under his breath and he left. I came out and felt like I'd had a heart attack. I knew that if they hadn't of stopped him, I would've been found. I could tell that he wasn't convinced and he would be coming back. I looked at Amanda who almost had tears in her eyes. It had been a close call but we had survived. We knew that we wouldn't be leaving the tree again until tomorrow morning. I honestly hoped, Aurum would just walk straight into my trap. Then these games were mine.

Matthew Haper (6)
It was getting close towards the afternoon. It was unfortuntly still getting hotter by the minute. Anyone could think that the gamemakers were trying to cook us alive. I was still here and I smiled at the fact that Mill would be proud. I was walking around the Jungle hoping to come across some water. I needed it. I was rapidly dehydrating when I already was. I had only a knife to protect myself and I had barley eaten anything in the past 12 hours. I knew that if I didn't act soon the death train would come and wipe me out, for good. I was stll on the verge of decided to go see my sister and have my name up in the sky tonight. I started bursting out into tears. I didn't care anymore. If I died, i'd go to heaven and I knew I wouldn't go to hell because I was already in it. I started tripping over myself and halucinating. I think I blacked out because the next thing I knew, I was covered in mud and was looking straight at a spring pool. I dragged myself up and jumped straight in, taken mouthfulls of water and recovering my energy. The water was a beautiful temperature and was perfectly pure. It felt like i'd been in there for eternitey. Though when I came up for air, I was greated with the death train. Standing in front of me was Jayson from District 7 holding an Axe in his hands. I tried to run but I was still in he water and was no match for him. He beat me to the other side. I was also no match for his strength. He dropped his Axe and picked me up by my throat. He then dropped me as I was starting to gasp for air. I was feeling dazed and light headed. He picked up his Axe and wasted no time burring it into my stomach. '''BOOM!!! '''The death train had got me out of hell, forever.

Casper Ware (10)
A cannon had sounded. I guessed the Careers had found someone. But I was still shaking. Me and Lena had just narrowly escaped from the Careers. We had seen them coming our way and decided it would be safer to hid inside our cave. But we were just lucky, since if they had of come inside our cave, we'd been dead. We knew that now, the Jungle was a safer place for us. But we also knew that there would be a lot of tributes and mutts roaming the area. Once we thought we gone deep enough inside the Jungle, we stopped to take a break. We decided to split up and look for food and water. I was lucky to kill a few small animals but it would only be enough to fed one of us. It seemed that there was no water around me, until. I saw a small lake. I started walking towards it but tripped and kicked a rock. It bounced off something and hit me in the chest, winding me. I realised, fast, that it was a force field. Plus if it had of been me insead of the rock, i'd be dead. I knew that there was nothing around here and decided to go back to Lena. She had got some water as well as a few small birds. It looked like we would survive the night. It seemed like I was going to be okay.

Jake Xra (11)
The tempurature was still risen. My clothes were so full of sweat that thy were sticking to me. We were lucky to have some water. It felt like an oven. Me and Kasha had suggested going into the mountains but Acacia and Parker disagreed, saying that we needed to stay here for supply reasons. It was only Day 2 and our environment was torturing. I quickly turned to my right when I heard the crunch of leaves underneath someones foot. "Who's out there?" I yelled. Nobody moved. Nobody was even breathing. We all waited to see who was there. But nobody was coming out or moving in that direction. Until we heard it again. But this time it was running. But it was away from us, not towards us. That was wierd. Nobody bothered to chase after them. "Do smell burning?" asked Kasha. "Yeah, it seems to be coming from..." I said. Oh God. It was a fire and it as coming straight at us. We packed up our camp and made a break for it. We were running like madman with all our weapons and supplies bashing around. But no matter how fast we were running the fire was gaining on us. We entually made it to the lake but so had somebody else. It had been the person we'd seen. It was Lance from District 5. I stood in shock horror. He got out his pack of Throwing Knives and before I could do anything he threw on into my stomach. I crounched in pain. My alliance had seen what had happened and came rushing to my aid. But they were too late. While Lance was running away he threw another and it found it's mark right in my skull. '''BOOM!!! '''I died in Kasha's arms with her tears on my face.

Lance Ampere (5)
My head was spinning at a thousand miles per hour. My head felt hot and my body felt light. I felt like I was on a spinning rollercoaster and I had to throw up. I had just woken up. I seemed to be covered with a bush, in the Jungle sector. I looked around, wondering where I was. I could see the lake where I had just killed Jake from District 11. I shot my head around, alarmed. I couldn't remember going in a bush or even going to sleep. I tried to remember what had happened. I remembered seeing Jake and his alliance in the bush. They had heard me and were looking out for me. I hid in a tree deciding what to do, hoping they wouldn't come and find me. Then I saw the massive fire coming towards me. I jumped out of the tree and bolted away from the fire. I remembered getting stuck under a tree. I couldn't remembered what had happened because th next thing I knew, I was standing in front of the lake. Then I looked to my left as I saw Jake run out from the tree's. He was alone, so I assumed that he had lost his alliance on the way out. On an impulse, I grabbed my knives and went at him. But when his alliance showed up, I quickly gave him the final blow and ran. I was so scared that they would follow and hunt me down that I wasn't looking where I was going. Then I remembered that I ran into a tree and knocked myself out. Though I was 99% sure that I didn't land in any bush. That scared me. I knew I had to move. I packed up my things and headed towards the edge of the Jungle, away from the mountains. There didn't seem to be anyone around. It looked safe enough for a few days. I just hoped that nobody would track me down.

Jayson Huff (7)
It was a pretty quite area with no tributes and an occasional animal here and there. It seemed to be on a cliff looking towards the Island. It also most seemed perfect for a family picnic. Wow Jayson, Rain it in. It's the Hunger Games not District 7. I had followed Lance away from the Jungle. I had always had an intrest in him, since the beginning. He seemed smart and seemed to know what he was doing. So I thought I would go for an alliance with him. I was in the tree's thinking of what to do after I had killed Matthew. It seemed that if me and Lance were together we would do some damage. I saw him come out of the thick bush and take out Jake. Then when he ran, I knew that I had to follow him. Though when he knocked himself out on that tree, I didn't know what to do. I quickly jumped down and moved him body into a bush so nobody would find him. I then waited until he came to and left towards the edge of the Jungle, away from the Mountains. I was now trying to figure out a way to talk to him. I knew that if I didn't do it right, that he would kill me. He was starting a fire to cook his animals. It seemed alright because it was getting dark. I just decided to go for it. I walked in front of him and the fire. He noticed me so quick, he had a knife at my neck in seconds. "Wow, I come in peace" I said. "Look, I don't have time for this." He started to move the knife to my chest. "How about an alliance?" I asked. He stopped for a moment. "Why would I want that?" He asked. "Well you owe me." I said. "And how do I owe you?" He asked. "Well, I'm the person who moved your body into that bush." I said. He looked shocked. "What's your name and District?" He asked. "Jayson Huff, District 7" I answered. He seemed to be studying me up. Then he came to a conclusion. "Well I'll be happy to have you on board, Jayson." He said with a smile. I laughed. It seemed I would be safe for an extra day or two. I was glad that I had extra protection with his skills. And God would I need them.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
We had finally survived two days in this horred place. I had never expected the Hunger Games to be like this. Especially for me, I'm a Career. I should be in the cornucopia having all the food and water I want. But no, i'm stuck in a tree because the Careers want my blood. I understood that Ryan needed my help but by me going with him, I was just as wanted as he was. I now needed his help more then ever. A lot had happened down at the lake but unfortunatly all had doged our trap. Ryan and I both agreed that tomorrow we'd try and make another. We had a pretty good spot in our tree. We could see our trap, the lake, the corncuopia and any tribute on the ground below us. Unfortunately with all of that, it make it easier for people to see us. Tomorrow we were hoping to go for our maps. They seemed important. We then heard a sound. We jumped and looked around. We heard it again. It seemed to be coming out of nowhere. I looked at Ryan. Then out of nowhere something dropped on my lap. As fast as Ryan could, he put his hand over my mouth. I screamed at his hand. Wow he had fast relexes. I looked at the container in front of me. I opened it to find a deadly pack of Throwing Knives. There were mentor gifts. Ryan had also recieved one. Our mentor had gone all out by giving Ryan a Shield. It was perfect for him just like my gift was perfect for me. We knew that now we had a wepon to fight back against anyone who came for us. Now we weren't so afraid.

Parker Blue (9)
I knew that we had to find a campsite. It was starting to get too dark to be trechering around the mountains. We had finally decided to move out of the Jungle. Especially after the fire and Jake's death. It was hard for us to leave his body there while we quickly moved before the rest of us were attacked. The least effected by the death was Acacia. She almost seemed okay with him dieing. As if she had expected it or wanted it. She was becoming a mysterious person and in the Hunger Games you can't afford to have mysterious people especially in your alliance. You could almost feel the hatred from her towards me and Kasha. I needed to calm down, she was probably just a quiet girl and rubs people the wrong way. I was thrown off my train of thought when Kasha lead us to a good campsite she had seen. We quickly looked around an it was obviously clear but somebody had been here a while ago. But by the looks of things, they weren't coming back anytime soon.We'd heard two cannons today, we already knew that Jake was one but who was the other. We of course, now being a smaller alliance were hoping for a Career. Our alliance was in danger, especially with so many other small alliancs out there. It would probably only take two tributes to take out our alliance completely. Anyway we would find out soon enough. I went over to comfort Kasha about Jake's death, I knew that seeing him in the sky would wreck her. It felt good to know that I was in an alliance with somebody who had a heart, if only both of them could.

Fay Alban (8)
Today had been, almost normal. We'd had no fights or deaths around, we'd had a nice amount of food and water, and we'd only heard two cannons. But of course we couldn't live in a fantasy like that, we were here to kill people and there was nothing we could do to stop that. The Island was peaceful and beautiful. We'd had a lot of fun today. Going swimming, hunting and exploring. Though at one stage, Noma insisted that we went looking for the X on his map. We weren't that far away and we found it pretty easily. It seemed to make Noma happy. It was Poison for his Blowgun. It also made me and Lucinda feel safer as now, Noma's Blowgun would do more damage. We had our campsite set up, including our fire. It was getting very cold inside the arena. We were all starting to shiver. I went over to talk to Noma but was cut off by the anthem.

The Fallen

District 6 - Matthew Haper

District 11 - Jake Xra

To be honest that wasn't too surprising. Though I felt bad that both Matthew and Mill had died so early. Now there were only 18 tributes left. My head went into a spiral. I had to calm myself down and breathe. I repeated my game plan over and over inside my head, Just wait everyone will kill everyone else you can then just kill one person and prove that you can do it. I then thought about Noma and why he needed to win this. I think I started hyperventurlating because Noma came over and comforted me. We had a long chat, tears came out and most sentences finsihed with, we'll figure it out later. It didn't seem late but when we looked Lucinda she was alseep on the ground. I said goodnight to Noma and fell alseep pretty quickly myself. That conversation had hardly helped at all. Only one of us would make it out of here, but who?

Reia Sunrise (4)
You could feel the tension between everyone. Right now, nobody was safe and everyone was planning to kill to save their own skin. Though for the safety of the alliance and everybody inside it, we called a truce until the final 13. But still, that didn't make anybody feel safer. There were still many other tributes outside of our alliance planning to kill us, including Ryan and Amanda. Though luckily we still had numbers on our side, if anyone tried to attack. It was after midnight by now, and everybody started to drift off to sleep. We knew that we'd only be bringing a death sentences on ourselves if we went hunting now. So we all had a free night. Odin and Allan were already out of this world and into their own. Max was eating an apple, Annabeth was killing time by playing with the water, Aurum was in deep thought and I was just ... surviving. I couldn't shake the thought of how dissapointed Hana would be in me right now. I had done nothing. She would have made at least three kills by now. I just had to do something and prove to her that she wasn't the only one who could play the Hunger Games. But suddenly Aurum stood up grabbed Sword and started walking towards the Jungle. Annabeth chased after him but got sent back to look after camp. I couldn't wonder but what he was doing. Who was he hunting, had he found Ryan today? Maybe he thought now was the best time to kill him. He knew but he was acting suspiciously ever since lunch. Camp had got akward. Max had finished his Apple and also gone to sleep. So me and Annabeth were left by ourselves. We had nothing to talk about and left each other alone. She was obviously trying to figure out what Aurum was doing. To be honest, so was I. But I was trying to come up with a plan to make my mark in these games. It must have been a few hours and still I hadn't heard a cannon. Annabeth had given up and went to sleep so I was left all by myself. Luckily I had finalised my plan and now I had my chance. Once I made sure that Annabeth was alseep and Aurum wasn't close by, I quickly went upstairs to where all the bags were kept. I grabbed Max's bottle of Poison. I had seen him hid it while everyone had been having dinner. I quickly made it downstairs and undid the cork. I knew that I had to be fast. Aurum could be back at any second, anybody could wake up at any second and once the cannon sounded everyone would be awake. I uncorked the bottle and poured it on Odin's mouth. I quickly ran and put the bottle and the cork next to Max and went to pretend to be alseep.''' BOOM!!! '''It sounded just as I hit the ground. We all woke to find each other rattled by the cannon. Then Annabeth looked at Odin and saw the purple liquid. She opened his mouth and it poured out on the ground. "Poisoned" she said. We then saw Max with the not-filled bottle and the cork on the ground. Annabeth ran to him and grabbed him by the neck. She got Allan to hand her the Poison bottle and was about to pour it down Max's throat when Aurum ran at her and pulled the bottle away from her grip. "Let him go, I'll handle this" he said. He then picked up Max by his coat and they walked away talking. They came back a few minutes later and Max gave me a quick glare. "Nobody is to hurt Max, what's done is done." The sun was starting to rise. I knew that I would've made Hana and my District proud but my plan must of backfired. Max was definetly looking at me with his glare. Maybe he had seen me do it? I didnt' know. All I knew that I was in danger but there was no way I could survive if I escaped the alliance. I just had to be ready when Max attacked.

"Hurry up!" I yelled. We had finally made it to our old spot in the Mountains. It hadn't been a long journey but it had been taken slowly so nobody could hear us. We knew that with all the events that yesterday had brought, we had to move. So we had gathered our belongings and left the Jungle. The Mountains were freezing and even the Jungle had been cool. Last night had almost got us killed. I had gone down the tree to get some water from the lake and with the darkness I knew that i'd be safe. But Aurum showed up. He walked on the opposite side of the lake towards a tree. He stopped and looked around, he even looked up in the tree's. I was stuck and couldn't move. Eventually he went searching deeper inside the Jungle and I had a little time to get back out of sight. He obviously knew that somebody was around hear and we knew that the only people were us. He came back and eventually gave up, going back towards the cornucopia. A few minutes later we heard a cannon. It awoke Casper and I told him the plan. The Careers would most likely go back to the Jungle tomorrow so we wouldn't be safe. He agreed to the plan and we prepared ourselves for the journey. But over the night it had become colder and colder. When the sun rose it revealed a sick trick the gamemakers had pulled on us. The lake was frozen solid. Luckily me and Casper were well prepared and weren't too worried about it. But once we arrived back in our cave, I saw that it wasn't only the lake that was frozen, the entire water around the cornucopia and beyond was frozen. It obviously had to mean something but who could know what the gamemakers had in mind. Casper was becoming really annoying and getting on my nerves. I already killed Lavender and to be honest, I wouldn't hesitate for Casper. I knew that either I would leave the alliance or he would leave the arena for good. I had to be patient and wait for the right time. He was useful in some ways but when the time came, he wouldn't know what hit him.

Max Knightmare (C)
What the hell was Aurum's problem? I couldn't believe last night. It had just been a blur. Unfortunatley after I became the prime suspect in murdering Odin, none of us could sleep. Nobody felt safe but everyone was after my blood. If it hadn't of been for Aurum, then my blood would have been all over Annabeth. It was amazing how quickly she turned on me. Once Aurum pulled me aside, I thought he was just going to kill me. But what happened, total changed the situation. He told me, that he knew that I was innocent and had been asleep the whole time. He had seen the whole act. It was Reia. I thought he was joking, which made me realise that he was telling the truth. She obviously was a mastermind. Nobody would suspect her and with everyone already onto me for killing Akumai, who better to pin it on. He told me not to do anything and leave it up to him. But I couldn't help but glare at Reia. I could tell she knew, she knew that I knew. But once had risen, Aurum got everyone together. It was time to go hunting again. He put Annabeth in charge with me and Allan as her army. Himself and Reia were going to stay back. While everyone was grabbing weapons, I quickly pulled Aurum aside to talk. He shut me down straight away. I pleaded to stay back. I knew that Annabeth and Allan could easily kill me, plus I was looking forward to hearing Reia beg for mercy. But Aurum had no time for my requests. He told me that even though he knew I was innocent, he didn't trust me to kill Reia. He said that he would take care of it quick and easy. As well as making it very clear to the others that if I was killed, there would be servere punishments. I couldn't believe what I was hearing. I was about to protest but Aurum cut in, saying that I could either go hunting with the Careers, or leave the alliance for good and die. I knew that I didn't have a choice but hope he was telling the truth. So i grabbed my Sword and a Throwing Axe, and then left for the Jungle with Annabeth and Allan, leaving Aurum and Reia alone.

It was dead silence between me, Allan and Annabeth. We all were just bored and hated each other. The Jungle seemed quiet except for the animals and the stupid frozen lake. What the hell was with that? Anyway we seemed to check every where with nobody found. We decided it was over and started heading back towards the cornucopia. But we were coming back on the mountain side of the Jungle and found some footprints in the mud. We all looked at each other wondering if it was a trap. We'd done nothing all day so we decided to risk it. We all had our weapons at the ready for anything. We heard the slip of pebbles up ahead and picked up the pace. What we found was beautiful. It was the stupid "Big Alliance", well they certainly weren't big anymore. We were hiding behind a big boulder while they seemed to be getting ready to move. You can hear them talking, about the Careers hunting. I was still so angry from Reia, Annabeth and Aurum, that I decided to let my anger out. "Guys we need to get a move on, they could be anywhere" said Parker. I jumped out and yelled, "TOO LATE!" I ran towards them and let my Throwing Axe fly. It found it's mark right in the left side of Parker's head '''BOOM!!! '''He fell to the ground with a thud. Kasha turned around with her anger fuming and shot an arrow at my head missing and hitting a rock nerby. Annabeth was doing nothing but praying Kasha killed me. Allan stepped in and threw a Trident towards her. She jumped to the ledge below. We all ran to look what had happened. She had hit the ground running already about 100 metres away before we saw her. But she gone for one last shot. Letting an arrow fly at me. She was obviously experienced because it pounded right into my left shoulder. I screamed, getting ready to chase her down but Allan and Annabeth were over it. Already they were heading back to the cornucopia. I pulled out my Axe and started to catch up with them. God, wouldn't Annabeth's blood go so well on my Axe?

Kasha Rye (12)
What had just happened? It had just been a blur. I was down at the bottom of the Mountains inside a cave. I figured if they came after me, they'd think i'd run as far as I could. Luckily I had no scratch except for the fact that my legs were badly bruised from my jump. But it was better then having a Trident in my chest. I had no idea was Acacia was. She probably was far away from the dangers. I had gone from a six person alliance to be alone. Yesterday I had lost Jake and now I have lost both Parker and Acacia. But I still had my weapons and my drive to get out of here alive. I needed to rest but decided on getting supplies for the day. I knew the Jungle would be my best option but I had to be extremely careful. After a while i'd gather enough food and had brought it back to my cave. I needed water but had seen the Jungle lake was frozen. I thought maybe there would be some water back at my old base camp. I managed the climb okay and was relieved with what I found. I saw Acacia. She heard me and turned around fast with her Spear in hand. She relaxed seeing it was me. She didn't say anything and they way she was looking at me freaked me out. She looked like a phsyco killer, kid. I saw a bottle of water and casully picked it up. Right then she pounched on me. Pushing me to the ground. She started shoving me towards the edge of the cliff I jumped off. She had got me right to the edge. She was strong and I couldn't do anything. I quickly grabbed the edge as my body fell and started hanging over the ground below. I knew that if I fell, I would be dead. I had to think fast, she was about to step on my fingers. She brought her foot down and I quickly pulled my hand away. I was lucky to have good up body strength. I quickly thought of something and with my free hand, grabbed an arrow. I grabbed the edge again. Then quickly let go and brought the arrow down into Acacia's foot. She yelped. I pulled my body back up and on the flat ground. But had no time to rest. I went into Acacia with a hand-to-hand combat fight. She hit me with a few lifeless punches but I easily won, knocking her to the ground with a nice kick to the temple. She was knocked out straight away. I looked at her. All I had to do was put an arrow in her and she would be gone. But I couldn't do it. Even though she would kill me in an instance, we once had an alliance and I just couldn't do that to her. I grabbed up my thing including some extra water and headed off, leaving her in peace. I just hoped it didn't come back to kill me.

Reia Sunrise (4)
My heart was pumping at a million miles an hour. I was out in the cornucopia alone with Aurum. He hadn't done anything unusual but I didn't really know. I was too busy trying to figure out what to do. I couldn't run, I couldn't fight and I couldn't tell the truth. If he found out, i'd be dead quicker than my cannon. But I couldn't act wierd or scared because he might figure it out. God, what a mess. Hana would've been disappointed in me. I had made a kill, only to get killed. My opptions were running out and I felt like my best chancce was to leave. I grabbed a bag and packed some supplies. I also added Knife for extra protection. I knew I couldn't leave Allan alone without saying anything, so I left a note saying to meet me at the frozen Jungle lake tonight while the fallen is showing. I stuck it on his Trident. Aurum wasn't taking much notice of me, which made me even extra careful. I put my bag on and grabbed my Bow and Arrow's. It hit like a lightning bolt. Aurum had charged, and tacked my legs to the ground. How did he know? I quickly acted on impluse and shot an arrow towards him. He had a Knife and a Sword. I shot another arrow to destract him. I got up, dropped my backpack and ran around the other side of the cornucopia. I couldn't run now, he'd easily kill me. The only way I would survive would be to kill him. I couldn't hear him or see him. I decided to start moving back when a Spear hurlded past my right ear and into the wall in front of me. I shot my head back and let the arrow go. He ducked. I ran back around and heard him get out of the water. The one thing I had on my side was noise. I could hear every step he took, while I didn't make a sound. I shot a few arrows and he'd take a few swings at me with the Sword. All of which missed. We were unbruised and exhausted. I knew I had to end it. I used my advantage and crept up behind him. I ran and jumped on his back. I started chocking him. At first he was surprised but then he jumped and landed on me. Crack. I screamed in pain. I had broken my spine. He came at me with his Sword. I dodged by sitting up. I quickly grabbed his Knife out of his pocket and stabbed his leg quickly. I started running and he came after me. I barely walk the pain was like death was on me. I couldn't win now and even if I did, I would only die later. I came up with an idea, one last chance to make Hana proud. I run up the stairs to the second level with my Bow ready. He came up and realised I had out-smarted him. I had an arrow pointed at him. "How did you know?" I asked, "When I came back you were just pouring the Poison into Odin's mouth." He replied. Of course. I could've easily killed him now but that wasn't me. I wanted to be with Hana forever. I quickly dropped my Bow and grabbed the District 8 Bag that I was standing next to. There was an explosion. I felt my right arm get blown off. The force had driven Aurum back right into the wall, almost knocking him out. He realised that I wanted out and brought his Sword down into my chest '''BOOM!!! '''She was proud, I thought with a tear in my eye.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
It was time to move. It was only miday and already so much had happened. The arena had become ice, freezing all water supplies and taking away all warmth. We had heard two cannons, one of which the Careers were probably involved. It was interesting to see that Aurum wasn't with them. He probably was waiting for me and making sure he wasn't injured until he had killed me. Amanda and I had taken down our trap by the water as it wasn't working like we had hoped it would. We knew that we had to move towards the island. It was the last safe place to move, according to Amanda's map. We left as soon as the coast was clear. We moved towards the end of the Jungle away from the Mountain side. We made a break for it, being careful that anyone from the cornucopia couldn't see us. The ice had allowed us to run to the island instead of swimming. I noticed that on my map an x was located at the island as well. Meaning that there was something on this island that would help me survive. Luckily since the ice had only been recently laid it was farely solid. It was raining over the island making it harder to climb up to the top. But since me and Amanda both had trained for every posible problem, we were alright. It didn't seem to be that hard anyway. As soon as we had made it to the flat ground at the top, I went lookig for my x. It didn't take long and there it was under a bush, Protective Body Armour. I shoved it on my body at once. I was almost invincable. I had Body Armour, a Shield and my Sword. We had the whole island to ourselves and we would be practicing for whatever had to come. Aurum will be my first kill in this arena.

Fay Alban (8)
The day was passing at a slow rate. It was midday and me and Lucinda had hardly moved. Though I was so cold that I was unsure if I would ever move again. I tried to comfort Lucinda knowing how scared and frightened she must be. For me, going into the Hunger Games at her age would've been instant death. I was lucky that even now I was alive and had my alliance. Lucinda didn't really talk much these days, not that there was much to say anyway. It was so quite here on the Island, with the low noise of the bugs and the rain and the ocean. Plus we had the repetative sound of wood breaking in the distance. It was Noma practicing for anything that would harm us. Especially since this afternoon we were moving. Our alliance knew that if we didn't do something the gamemakers would, meaning anything could go wrong. I couldn't believe I had actual found and met Noma in all places. Vennica had described him so perfectly in our sessions. The way he looked, his personality, everything. They were perfect together. But that's what worried me. Unfortunetly it was either him or me that was going back to her, knowing that if one of us kills the other we would lose her. I want to get Noma back to her but I have my own life as well that I need to complete. The whole thing was confusing and giving me a headach.I decided to sleep it off, eventually me and Noma would discuss it but not today. I quickly took one look around for safety and then instantly fell asleep to the sounds of the forest.

"FAY!!!" Fay you need to wake up now!",  "Why what's the hurry, Noma?", "We aren't alone on the Island, I found footprints!", 'Do you know who it is?", "No, but come on let's move!" I quickly wake Lucinda up and we pack quickly ready to move and Noma ready if they found us. Suddenly the ground shakes. I look around, just as terrified as everyone else. A loud cracking noise booms throughout the arena. I hear the falling of rock and Noma quickly realises what is happening. I see my life flash before my eyes as I look down and see a crack between me and Noma and Lucinda. I know nothing can save me now, but I didn't want to die. I quickly pushed off the rock just as it was breaking away. I was flying through the air, reaching out for Noma. I miss him and just come short. My extended arms grab the ledge and Noma and Lucinda tower over me. I have no footing and a drop of about 20 metres to my death. Noma starts to run towards me but a large crack sounds, meaning that we would both die if he tried to save me."Don't do it Noma, don't risk yourself!", "I have to, you've helped Vennica this whole time, I need to save you, for her." "No, win for her! Go live with her as a Victor and you can both have everything you've every wanted." "No I won't let you go Fay!" "You don't have a choice, leave quickly before they come, save Lucinda and win for Vennica." "Don't let go Fay, Don't you dare, I need you!"

Amanda Selkirk (1)
"What the hell was that?" "Amanda, I don't know." In a split second this Island had gone from safe to hell. Obvisously it was a gamemaker surprise but why? Who did it effect? As we walked towars the edge of the Island we heard vocies. We quickened our pace, lead by the cryies of these tributes. As we came closer the voices became clear and were definetly male and female. We wondered which couple it could be. I thought we'd find Casper and Lena but what we found was a total shock. Standing in front of us was a the District 9 female, Noma the District 3 male and another female hanging off the ledge. There cryies and plea's to stay together could probably be heard throughout the whole arena. Ryan seemed interested to hear their conversation but I wouldn't give a damn. I stepped out showing myself and loaded an arrow. I fired but Ryan had distracted me. It missed Noma's head and went out into oblivion. He swung round and saw me standing alone. In one heartbeat he had loaded his blowgun and was ready to fire. Out of nowhere, Ryan tackled him to the ground. Making Noma drop his Blowgun and run out of breath. I took the opportunity and loaded another arrow, quickly letting it go. It found it's mark right in the head of the girl hanging from a cliff. No cannon arrived. I heard a loud crack of ice followed by the '''BOOM!!! '''I turned ready to get away and out of nowhere the District 9 female looked ready to kill me. She ran at me but I was more experienced. I blocked her attacks and droped her to the ground. In the corner of my eye I was Ryan getting ready to run. I knew Noma would come for me so I bashed the District 9 female's head and bolted with Ryan away. We knew Noma would follow us and we'd have to find some new shelter for the night. But it didn't phase me as I had finally made my first kill in the arena.

Lance Ampere (5)
"Jayson it's okay, there's nothing we can do!", "Well there has to be something. Maybe we can go over and...", "And what, get killed? Good luck!" Jayson had flipped. We had of course heard the cannons all day while we were in our area with a small fire under the tree's that kept us warm. Then that loud crack, god that could've been defening. We had seen everthing, plus as we were so close we were able to make out the faces of who were there. That poor District 8 female that had to die like that. The rocks of course had startled us but I was interested to find that the District 1 pair were over their. I've been studying my maps lately as of course they serve a damn purpose. My map definetly contains the poisonus plants in the arena. While Jayson's map is harder to underestand. His shows an x but lately it has been moving around, as well as being shown on the Island. I'm starting to think that this contains the biggest threats in the arena. As i'm pretty sure that the District 1 pair is showing on Jayson's map. I'm trying to think of a plan but Jayson has gone overboard. He's now thinking we need to plan a night attack or something but I had no interest. But then again Jayson was right, we now had an advantage and we needed to use it. "Jayson!", "What?", "You need to calm down, plus we need dinner." "Right," "By the way Jayson, get a good night sleep tonight." "Why?" "Because tomorrow morning our first stop is the cornucopia." "You got it!" Now I had the plan set, hopefully tomorrow the Careers would no longer exist.

Annabeth Elosegui (2)
These days the Careers were getting worse and worse. We were turning on each other ready to kill. The only thing we had going for us was that we had a good leader and we were double the size of any other alliance. Today I had really hoped the stupid District 9 male would live, and kill Max in an instant. Maybe I would've let him live if he had of completed the job. So we'd finally made a kill though you wouldn't know it looking at our camp. Max had finally got injured so we finally had something to celebrate and we come back from hunting to find Aurum coughing up smoke and telling us how he'd killed Reia. I was shocked and wondered for Aurum's motive but Max seemed impressed. Allan that pile of nothing was distraught and hadn't said anything to anyone since. We were now having dinner listening to the voices of the arena. The alliace was over, Aurum knew it. With me and Max going at each other, as well as now Allan going after Aurum it was becoming unsafe. "Aurum, why did you kill Reia? What did she do?", "Annabeth, Reia was the betrayer the person who took out Odin." "Wait what!? Are you sure?" "Positive" "Maybe that's why Allan's so upset because he thinks you just killed her" "No, I chatted with him early about him, I think he's just in shock." What a day, three cannons, two of which we know about. I wondered about the last.

Acacia Paragon (3)
The pain. My head was throbing and body felt weak. Where was I? Was I dead? I looked around me to find myself laying on the ground inside the 259th Hunger Games arena. What had happened? It was already dark fall. I checked my body and found no injuries except bruises, cuts and my head pain. I also found I still had my Spears, some food and my water supply. I tried to remember what had happened. I saw Parker laying dead on the ground and Kasha yelling at me to run. I think I saw the Careers behind me. I ran and never looked back hiding and returning when they had left. I remebered seeing Kasha and then blank. Had she done this to me? Had she come back to attack me? I started to realise that I was exposed, and plus I didn't know how long I had been knocked out for. I started my camp ate the last of my scraps and drank the last of my water. Tomorrow I needed to get some supplies and scout for near by tributes. Suddenly I heard the anthem and immedietly looked up at the sky.

The Fallen

District 4 - Reia Sunrise

District 8 - Fay Alban

District 9 - Parker Blue

Parker.... I had only been knocked out for the afternoon. I tried to remember so hard what had happened but I just couldn't find the images in my mind. But tomorrow I would find Kasha and she will wish she had never been born. Because tomorrow night Kasha would have the same fate as Parker.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
I sat quietly leaning on a tree in the cold arena, while Noma was... He was distraught especially since in the end she was just a victim to the District 1 female. But what I think annoys Noma the most was even if she wasn't shot, she couldn't of been saved. The gamemakers had already decided her fate. I knew I needed to let him be for now but eventually he would have to move on. He was letting his emotions show greatly, not caring about sponsors or viewers he wanted out. He wanted to be home with no such thing as the Hunger Games. Even I was beginning to tear up. Fay had been so wonderful to me, though I had never shown her much emotion. Although I felt bad for Fay and sorry for Noma, I was also here to win. I hadn't been noticed all games until I stood up to the District 1 female before getting knocked out. I needed sponsors, by making a big move. It had to happen soon or I would end up like Fay with my fate decided by the gamemakers. I had a plan in mind that even Noma would be impressed with. I was definetly going to need his help but more importantly his protection. I got up and went towards him. He was on his knee's, a defeated man. "Noma, I need you. I need your help and your protection. I know that you and Fay had a connection but you need to move on. I want you to come with me to the cornucopia tomorrow. We can avenge Fay and I can grab my special backpack that I was unable to get at the bloodbath." I waited quietly for a response. I saw him move and get up. He looked at me with a big death stare. He grabbed me by my shirt and backed me up against a tree hard, winding me. "You listen up! I will not help, I will never help nor will I risk my life protecting you! You need to leave unless you want to get hurt. Leave this Island and leave me and never come back. I don't want to see you unless your in the sky. Got it!?" Tears started to swell up in my eye's and a gave him a slite nod. He dropped me and I gasped for air. I quickly ran off and grabbed some supplies as well as Noma's knife. I ran but only to the other side of the Island. There was no way I was leaving until tomorrow. How could he betray me? How could he betray Fay's last wishes? He sickened me. I was now alone but tomorrow I would be noticed, every sponsor would know who I was.

Aurum Chirp (2)
Today marked our fourth day in the Hunger Games. The sun had just risen, awkening everyone in my alliance. I looked at the mighty Careers. Four, was it a lucky number or would it be on the fourth day the the Careers offically ended in this Hunger Games. Yesterday we had removed the tratior that killed Odin, but unfortunetly we still had another that would do anything to win. I reminded myself of my cousin, Nathaniel. He was doing the exact same thing as me. Trying to keep the Careers alive while Bronze lead them into destruction. Though Nathaniel had recieved the last laugh but it had cost him his life in the end. I needed to show that I was just as good as Nathaniel and could make life saving decisions. I went to the other side of the cornucopia, out of sight of my fellow alliance members. I knew that either I saved myself or I would lead myself into destruction. The gamemakers were doing something against the Careers, I knew it. The sun had brought warmth inside the arena but that meant the ice was melting and evaporating leaving a heavy mist. I knew this was so others could attack the Careers without being seen. I packed bags with weapons and supplies like never before. I had them all packed and ready to go but I was missing something, someone. I came to Annabeth and took her out of sight as well. I told her about everything that I thought would happen. "So what can we do?" she asked. "Annabeth we have to leave, survive the District 1 pair has for the past four days. You can either stay or come but i'm leaving." I swept up a sleeping bag and ran back to my supplies. I stopped when I saw a parachute on my bag. I opened it and found a shield. I had told my mentor that i'd need one of these inside the arena and he had answered me, finally. I also saw a note. "Good Luck!". Was I too late? Was someone here already? The sound of rushing footsteps answered my question. I would have to fight.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
I bolted past Aurum and crammed myself into a pile of supplies. He'd heard me, dammit. Now he would be looking for me, well for anyone. I needed my bag, I could see the entrance just ten steps away. But ten steps the other way was the Career alliance. If I even moved a musle they could hear or see me in an instant. I could hear the fear and worry in Aurum's voice. He was asking them to look everywhere. I knew my time was running out. I would either stay here and die or try to survive and have a slimer chance of dieing. Either way I wasn't ready to move. I had to use my brain, I had to think... I had it. I grabbed a First-Aid kit near by. Took out some stuff I wanted then threw the box away and onto the ice. It wasn't very loud but it had gathered the Careers attention. I had this last chance and I took it. Being as quiet as I could, I bolted up the stairs and into the room. I stopped listening for anyone following me. It seemed safe. There were some bags of tributes who died early but I saw mine and grabbed it in a flash. I looked inisde to find my weapon, a spear, and a teddy bear, the thing i'd desire. My mentor could help me with that. Now I needed to get out. I finally had a weapon in my hands to defend myself. I looked for any signs of the Careers but they seemed to be on the other side of the cornucopia. I knew I could attack them but what was the point as I only had one spear. I ran out onto the ice and into the mist. I had done it, I had survived. The sponsor would at least now take a look at me and that was all I needed.

Jayson Huff (7)
The Careers were onto me, but that was what we wanted. We had spooked them into thinking we were coming for them. Well we were but only Lance. He was going in the back way while I distracted them. I'd felt like i'd done my job so slowly and quietly I inched around the corncuopia. The sound of crushed ice alreated me. I looked over to my right to find a spear lodged in the ice. They were really just going to throw weapons at me, well two can play at that. I let my Throwing Axe fly towards them. I heard it hit a wall, now the Careers were frantically trying to figure out what to do. I edged closer to see what was going on. They were running for more weapons, I took the opportunity to run towards the spear they had thrown at me, then quickly bolted towards my Throwing Axe. Though I hadn't seen that Max was coming for me. He had a large knife in his hands and he ran at me on my left side. I ducked and weaved around him and grabbed my Throwing Axe but he was fast and had me up against the wall with the knife aganist my neck. I dropped my weapons and got ready to fight him off. Though I didn't have to. I saw Max grab the back of his left shoulder in pain. He turned around to find Lance standing there with a his Throwing Knives. Max ran at him though Lance just stapped to the left and tripped Max, getting him to land on his face. Lance jumped on Max pinning him down. He got his knife ready. Though Max wasn't finished he used all his strength and pushed Lance off. He started to run towards me but Lance grabbed him. Max sliced Lances arm and shot forward towards me. I ducked when he tried to go for my head. I pushed him back and Lance brought down a Throwing Knife in his skull. '''BOOM!!! '''He looked up to me in pain. I looked around to find some supplies that could help him. But saw the shadow of Allan standing over Lance. In one swift movement I grabbed me Throwing Axe and threw it into Allan's skull. '''BOOM!!! '''I grabbed the Spear next to me and looked around for anyone else but it seemed that the District 2 Tributes had left throughout the commotion. I ran around and found a First Aid kit. I got him up and moved him out of sight where I could help his arm in safety. The Careers no longer existed and it was because of me and Lance, sponsor would be looking at us right now. My chances of winning were getting better and better.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
The sound of the two cannons have boomed throughout the arena, asurely awakening everyone. Amanda awakes gasping in horror. I hush her quickly before somebody hears her. "What happened!?" she asked, "Well two cannons just sounded but it seemed you had a nightmare." I answered, "What? Two cannons, two..." she said, "Yes Amanda two cannons. Now come on we need to set up some traps." We jump down from the tree and get to work. We set two small, hiding traps around the de-frosting lake. "I'll find some food" she says. I decide to go back towards the tree but I went for a walk to look at the Careers. Though there was nothing but a hovercraft lifting up a body. I stayed, standing there in complete shock. The hovercraft picked up another body and zoomed off. Two... Two cannons, two bodies, both at the cornucopia. I scramble back up in the tree and wait for Amanda to tell her what I'd seen. Though I didn't have to wait long, it felt like forever. As soon as I saw her, I let it spill. Bombarding her with every word I said. "The bodies, they both looked like men. One definetly looked like Max but the other seemed to Allan." I finally say, "Though it could've been Aurum." she replies. I thought about it. Where was Annabeth? Where was Allan? Where was Aurum? Was this rivaly finally over, did the Lucrian's just win or is this the beginning of an even playing field. Two on two out surviving for themselves, both coming for each other. The real battle had only just begun.

Lance Ampere (5)
"Arrahhh" yells Jayson. "Hahaaaa, come on." I say. "Jese that's the second time i've fallen through the ice" Jayson says. Jayson... He had saved my guts three times! Moving my body into the bushes, killing Allan and then stiching up my arm. I owed him, big time. Though to be honest I didn't mind it. Jayson was good to be around. Besides saving me from death he's personality is so different then anyone i've ever seen in the games. He seems calm, relaxed, alert and seems to be ready for death all the time. Me, well not so much. Though Jayson was starting to bring out the good side in me. I now felt safer and more alert around him. We eventually made it back to our camp, again the surrounding area seemed to be empty. I thought about what would happen if I lost Jayson. It could be today, tomorrow or the day after but what would I do? Could I survive? I didn't have a choice. I realised that I needed to keep the connection with Jayson as just allies, instead of it becoming more. We had nothing to do today unless the gamemakers were keen for us to do something. Jayson went off to grab supplies, he also said he'd swing by the cornucopia for the good stuff. I took the opportunity to train myself incase Jayson wasn't always there for me. The tree's made great targets for my Throwing Knives... It was actually a while until Jayson turned back up. "Sorry, wanted to wait for the ice to fully melt before going back to the cornucopia." says Jayson. "Want some lunch?" he asked, "Sure" I reply. "Jayson, thanks for... Allan" I say, "Anytime" he replies. How much did Jayson mean to me? How long would I be with him? I knew the answers would come eventually.

Annabeth Elosegui (2)
Those two cannons still pounded throughout my head. Who hadn't made it? Was it Max, Allan or whoever was coming for us? Could it have been the District 1 pair ready to take us down? If so I knew that Max and Allan wouldn't be with us anytime soon. We had left when those two had left us alone, we bolted on the ice towards the Jungle. Though unfortunetly we hadn't gone the correct way and had ended up in the Mountains. Plus with the ice breaking, we would have to be in plain site swimming to the Jungle. So our best idea was to go through the Mountains to the Jungle. Though the path was wavy and rocky so it would be a while until we even saw the Jungle. I couldn't believe what we were doing. The Careers were supposed to be hunting down every tribute by now, not disbanding because there were only two members left. I remembered last year's games. Those games were amazing. Even though the Careers had problems the games only lasted 7 days. I think there was even a feast on the fourth day. At this rate, these games could last up to 12-14 days. I don't think I could survive that long living a stupid tree. My only other option was to leave Aurum and either hunt down tributes or live in the cornucopia waiting for the kills to come to me. Though I needed Aurum, he would protect me and I would protect him. Of course just until the time came were he needed to go and I needed to live. He would also provid food and water for me which I probably wouldn't have without him. He was also my District Partner, the person who I was closest to in these games. We stopped to take a water break. I still couldn't see the Jungle through the fog, we were still a long way away.

Noma Ambrose (3)
I had swam all the way from the Island to the Jungle. All in the hopes of finding Lucinda. It had been a bad couple of hours for me, though I had got to watch the cornucopia raid live. I couldn't believe it when I saw Lucinda run out of the cornucopia and across the ice. She had completed her plan and obviously had definet success as nobody followed her or even shot at her. I was even more suprised when I saw Aurum and Annabeth leave the cornucopia. They were running fast seemingly in fear. Then a cannon sounded and I saw what looked like Max dead on the ground. I blinked and a second later I saw Allan on the ground with the sound of a cannon. I looked to see that it seemed to be that District 5 boy as well as the District 7 boy, they seemed to be in an alliance. It didnt take me long to come up with a plan. I had many options that I could choose from. I knew that Fay had wished for me to take care of Lucinda but I didn't trust her. Fay was gone and that was that. I had made her angry last night kicking her out and probably made her an enemy. I didn't need somebody running for my guts. I needed to take Lucinda down for good. That's why I arrived at the Jungle, she wouldn't know what was coming. I needed her face in the sky tonight, and I would do everything I could to do that.

Aurum Chirp (2)
Afternoon was finally coming around giving me and Annabeth a little shade. We were still going barely stopping and barely getting any closer towards the Jungle. Though the fog was starting to ease, the pathway through the Mountains wasn't. It was chewing up time, that we would need for hunting food and finding water and shelter. It was becoming tirering and frankly boring. The only thing that we could do was think and talk to each other. Annabeth had brought up the cannons a few times, though I didn't really weigh in on that situation. I wouldn't be surprised if whoever had attacked us had gotten to Max and Allan before they got to them. She even once brought up home but I dismissed that quickly. I didn't want to show emotion and lose the sponsor who loved my game personality. I had worked hard to perfect the sly talk and attitude, the way that I act that i'm better then everyone and I have all the answers to questions. When in reality I don't have any information unless somebody else knows. I mainly talked about our stategy for shelter, food and water. It semmed to get our minds off what we were actually doing. The minutes and seconds passed by as we continued to cross the Mountains. "Aurum! Were close." she yells, "What?" I ask, "Up there is were we found the District 12 girl and killed the District 8 or 9 boy yesterday." she replies. In excitment we break into a jog towards the ledge. I look to see the Jungle only metres away. I heard rocks crack behind us. I swing round to find the District 3 girl stearing at us. She has a Spear in her hands and is ready to kill. Suddenly I heard a loud rumble and shot my head to the sky. A storm seemed to be begining, but how had it formed so fast. A loud crack boms throughout the arena as a lightning bolt  stricks the Mountains. I hear the biggest rumble tht can only mean one thing. "AVALANCE!!!" I yell as I look up to see rocks coming for us. I see Annabeth getting her Throwing Knives ready. I grab her arm and bolt for Jungle, never looking back. The downpour begins as we dive out of the way of boulders. We get up and bolt towards the back of the Jungle. Suddenly finding shelter wasn't our biggest problem. Though it had never been, it had always been surviving.

Casper Ware (10)
I quickly slide down the rocks and dive out of the oncoming death trap. Rocks shatter and spray all around me. I keep my head down in my arms to protect my eyes. The noises are defening in my ears. I hear the ground starting to shake. I look around to see large boulders flying everywhere. I run intowards a Jungle. I trip over a rock as another boulder shoots down right in front of me. I bolt and take shelter behind a tree. Lena... She had grabbed all the supplies and weapons. She could have left me defenless. I needed to find her. I look back towards the Mountains. I start to make my way back. Then out of nowhere something hits me in my forehead. I feel dazed and dizzy. I'm going to pass out... No I can't, i'll die. I slowly walk towards the Mountains as the avalance begins to stop. I look around Lena or any sign for where she could be. I see something out of the corner of my eye. I walk to find Lena laying on the ground and blood coming out of her head. I wondered if she was alive. I grabbed the backpack and her arm shot up. "Not, Today!" she says. Suddenly she kicks me in the stomach taking me by surprise. The next thing I knew a Throwing Knive was right next to neck. I duck as she throws another and a charge at her, tackling her to the ground. But she spins me over and starts punching me in the face. She pulls out another Throwing Knive and I do the only thing I can. I headbutt her with all my strength. This takes her by surprise and I take advantage of the situation running back. But she's fast and pushes me head first towards a tree. I just miss but I fall on the ground. "It's game over Casper. District 10 can bow down to me as I am souely responsible for the death of both their tributes." she yells, I shoot my head back "What!?" I ask, "You heard me" she yells, "That's right I did" I yell. I grab the Axe next to me and charge for her head. She dodges slicing the left side of my stomach. She drops her knives and starts to block the axe. I over power her and shove the blunt edge into her chest knocking her to the ground. Then quickly I bury the axe deep into her chest. She screams in pain and starts to cough up blood. I retrack the axe and go again. '''BOOM!!! '''"That was for Lavender, Bitch." I grab the supplies and my weapon. I head off to find shelter from the downpour.

Annabeth Elosegui (2)
We had finally taken refuge from the storm. It seemed to be important but neither me or Aurum were in the mode to figure it out. That recent cannon had obviously been from the avalance or maybe nobody had been in the Mountains at the time. Aurum had used a valuble that his mentor taught him. We were laying in a tree about 5metres away from the forcefield. Luckily Aurum had learnt that basic skill for an occasion just like this one. We had everything we needed back here. We were safe, we had alright sleeping area's, animals and even a crack in the tree's that allowed rain water to reach us. I'm realising that the gamemakers must be getting ready for something big. The Mountains no longer exist, nobody's at the cornucopia and who would really be at the Island this late in the games. Meaning the Jungle is the only spot for tributes to stay. So all of us are probably so close to each other that we don't even see them. Of course not us way back this far, but everyone has to be somewhere. These games were almost moving just as fast as last year's games with us already being at the final ten or eleven. I tried to remember last year, Katherine Marble was the District 2 Tribute. I remembered her just like me taking the first life in the arena. But she had gotten careless at the feast and the victor, Nymph, had taken advantage and killed her. Well Katherine inspirered me, but I would never make the same mistakes as her. Or I would end up like Katherine. But I wanted to watch replays of the games from my bed, in the Victor's Village. And I couldn't do that if I messed up.

Acacia Paragon (3)
I jump down from my tree. I'm covered in sweat and rain water. The avalance had finally stopped and there was rocks, ruble and dust everywhere. If Aurum hadn't of looked around, I, well actually all of us, would be dead. I had managed to survive with only cuts and bruises but luckily I still had my weapons and some supplies. I looked around to see if there was anywhere I could rest for the night. I see a squirrle scrambling up a tree. I throw my Spear and hit with pin-point accurary. I decide that this tree will do and I start to get ready for the night. I start to drift off but am awokening by the sound of footseteps and over turning ruble. I look to see long lushes blak hair and immeditetly reconize her... Kasha. I jump down from my tree and begin to bolt towards her. "Hello..." I say. She turns, unsurprised to see me. "Why did you attack me?" I ask, "What! I didn't attack you, you came after me." She says not even turning to look at me. I try to remember it so hard. I catch a glimpse in my mind and replay it, remembering how close I was to achieving my origional goal. "Well I guess her is my second shot" I say I bring my Spear down towards her back but she turns, Sword in her hand and blocks it. She runs towards the left and I chase after her. She knows that I can't throw the Spear without knowing for sure it would hit her. She stops and slides and starts to run back towards me. I'm shocked and try to stab her with my Spear she blocks and slices my leg. She keeps running. She continues the process of running back and forth while blocking my Spear. Eventually I just stand still. She stops. I'm over this. I use the best trick I'd learnt from using a Spear. I run and charge at her but dig the Spear into the ground so the spear launchs me over Kasha. I land and quickly turn and stab my Spear towards her. Though she has already ducked and kicks my hand, making me lose my Spear. I'm defenless. I surrender. "How did you know about that move?" I ask her, "Training, you know you shouldn't always reveal your best qualities. Save a little in the tank, my friend." she replies. "I should've killed you when I had the chance." she says. Then I fell the Sword plunge through my skin. She retracks it and for good measure gives it to me again. I start to cough blood and lose colour in my face. I know my life is over but I feel at peace knowing I am free and can be with my family. Also knowing that my killer was an amazing fighter and competetor and that was all I wanted in these games. BOOM!!!

Kasha Rye (12)
I was the last survivour of my alliance of six. It felt different. I remembered losing my alliance members, it was one of the hardest things i'd had to deal with over the past few weeks. Now I had been responsible for the last and it made me feel... It was hard to discribe. I wasn't sad but nor was I in joy. I had survived four days inside the arena. Four brutal, bloody days. Plus the next few dyas would get worse and worse as we cam down to the finaly. I tried to imagine myself being there fighting to survive but I just couldn't. All of my life the Careers had basically won the games without fail. Of course there was one or two exceptions but it's what we outer Districts believe. Even before our time when the second rebellion was beginning, the Careers were always the winner unless anyone had luck or great skills. But then I had to remember that anything was possible inside the arena and that it all comes down to how well you can survive and adapt to your surroundings. But I couldn't spend all games worrying about the finale. I had to take it one day at a time. I was still over turning ruble and rocks. I needed to find my suppies as well as my Bow and Arrow. I had just snuck out to the cornucopia to in the hopes of finding another but could only find a Sword. Suddenly the anthem begins to play.

The Fallen

The Capitol - Max Knightmare

District 3 - Acacia Paragon

District 4 - Allan Seashore

District 7 - Lena O'Connor

The fallen didn't seem to surprise me that much. Lena and Max had always seemed crazy and Allan well he never really had much of a chance. That only leaves ten Tributes in the arena, meaning that it was going to get harder to survive. I try to overturn another boulder but it won't budge. So I grab Acacia's Spear and lift it up into the air. I find my shelth underneath and nerby find my backpack and Bow. Although it's all dusty and a bit wonky it seems to be useable. And I would need it more than ever.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
The Careers... With Allan and Max left that only left, the District 2 pair. I look at Ryan as he comes to the same conclusion as me. The Careers were over, there was no such thing in these games. It felt strange, and was probably weirder for the Capitol citizens. Never had such an event occured during the Hunger Games. Alliance were supposed to be dieing but just not the Careers. I wondered what District 1 thought of it's Tributes this year. We had done nothing basically all games, I had made one kill and Ryan well yeah. Of course everyday I started to regret my decision of running away with Ryan but at nights I remembered that death was everywhere and without him, I wouldn't be safe. I decide to take a quick look around on the ground. I jump down from our tree and look around seeing that nobody was around, I started to move. I was mainly interested in looking at the cornucopia. It wasn't long before I reached the beach. It was pitch black everywhere my eye's darted. I could hear the waves rolling in and the sound of the Jungle. Nobody was out there, it was empty. I walk back towards the tree. It seemed that the District 2 Tributes were loose inside the arena. That meant they could easily spot us or track us. Now we had to step up our game. I climb back up the tree and Ryan alseep. It looked like i'd be taking the first watch. Finale ten and look at where I was.

Noma Ambrose (3)
The Sun had still decided to stay away. The downpour was still continuing over the Jungle. I hadn't slept the whole night. Lucinda had covered her tracks well. I'd been able to follow her footsteps up to this lake. Though I knew that I wouldn't just stand out there in the open for everyone to see. I had lost her trail but decided to wait and see for any movement this morning. Lucinda may have not been strong but she always had her weight and wiseness on her side. It was hard to believe that this was my fifth day inside the arena. Five days away from home, friends and family. All while the fact that your supposed to kill and die here. I had been waiting for at least thirty minutes now and nothing. I decided to see if maybe her tracks picked up somewhere else. I started to circle the tree's around the lake. I found a bunch of broken twigs and a smashed up bush. It seemed someone had fallen or dropped something onto the bush. I decide to head off in that direction. It wasn't long before I lost the tracks and they dried out. I looked around behind me and saw Lucinda stairing at me about 100metres away. I autimatically bolt towards her as she begins to run. I first make it to her tracks and then slowly follow them making sure not to loose them or any extra energy that i'd need. I could still see Lucinda whenever I shot my head up. Suddenly the Jungle's ground turned into sand. I looked up to see the corncuopia in front of me. I shot my head around. I had lost her. I go back into the Jungle and begin to search every bush and tree until I find her. She was mine.

Casper Ware (10)
I open my eye's in supision. Right above me is a giant leaf. It seems to be moving. Suddenly the leaf pours down cold, freezing water. I yell and scramble around so much that I slip and fall out of my tree. It doesn't take me long to realise that it was for the Capitol's laughs and I look up at the sky and give a sacastic thanks to the Gamemakers. I'm covered in dirt and am freezing cold. I quickly run down to the beach to wash off. Knowing anyone could see me, didn't actual seem to worry me. But dieing wasn't on my bucket list so I ran back to my camp and cleaned up. I was all alone but it felt better than ever. I had no body to watch over or worry about at night. I had everything I needed supply and company wise. Suddenly a loud sound booms throughout the arena. I look around but nothing is happening. Then I hear; "Hello and Good morning, to the Final 10 Tributes in the 259th Annual Hunger Games. We have decided to make today a little game, that has never been completed in the Hunger Games. The explaination shall come soon but we would like to invite the following Tributes to the cornucopia. These Tributes have 10mins to arrive or we shall take matters into our hands. These Tributes are Noma Ambrose, Lance Ampere, Jayson Huff and Casper Ware. You may bring whatever weapons you have and are all safe until said. Good Luck Tributes." What?! I quickly grab my Axe and put some Throwing Knives into my pockets. I begin to walk towards the cornucopia. What was this game? Why was it just us four Tributes? I finally reached the beach and began to swim out to the corncuopia. Lance, Jayson and Noma, all I don't have a problem killing. I see two more Tributes starting to swim out as I climb onto the corncuopia. It seems to be Lance and Jayson. They look to be together in an alliance which isn't good for me. What was this game and what would it affect? I needed all the information I could right now. Since it seemed we could all be going down.

Lance Ampere (5)
It has been dead silent at the cornucopia with Casper. He seemed to be all alert and ready to go. Noma finally shows up with seconds to spair. This makes the mood even more akward. Finally the second announcment comes. "Thankyou Tributes for making that easy. Well it will be time to begin." Suddenly four peacekeepers walk out of the cornucopia and grab us. I don't fight back but Noma does. Getting kicked and punched by the peacekeeper. They drag us to a rail and with a chain, they tightly tie our right hand to the rail. They them grab our weapons, next to me the peacekeeper even grabs the Knives out of his pockets. They put them down about a metre in front of us and walk off. The anouncment then continues. "We have tied you four tributes up. You can not reach your weapons until you have been untied. You four will have to work as a team to complete this goal. Now for the remaining six tributes, we invite to come along and watch or maybe you'd like to put a Sword or an Arrow through one of these tributes chests. We say, go ahead. But watch out for the twists and turns about this game. Nobody's job will be easy. You four Tributes need to untie yourselves to save yourselves. We wish everyone good luck and may the odds be ever in your favour. Let the game Begin!" The announcment cuts off and the cornucopia begins to spin. This wasn't going to be easy. I already start to see a tribute coming. I had to save myself but to do that I had to save us all.

Jayson Huff (7)
We all begin rattling and shaking our chains, trying to free ourselves. I look around to find more and more tributes were apperaring at the beach. I yank and pull my chain, begin to smash it against the cornucopia, but nothing is working. I am chained with Casper behind me and Lance in front of me. "Any Luck?" I yell. All I recieve are agrivated no answeres. I try to slow myself down and think of a way out of this. Suddenly I hear Lance scream in front of me and I shoot my head up. I see a wooden plank coming towards my face. I duck with inches to spare. Then I see another coming for my legs. I step over it with ease. Then again some wooden planks come around but there both for my face and my legs. I squeeze myself through. But suddenly i'm yanked backwards by my chain. I look behind me to see that Casper didn't quite make it through the wood. If this happened every time we'd be in trouble. I had to keep ducking and weaving, rattling and yanking, walking forward and being pulled back over and over again. Tributes were gaining, reaching the cornucopia fast. Then a loud clunck sounds around the cornucopia. I look around to see that the pole we were chained to was moving up. Suddenly my chain takes my weight and begins hoisting me up in the air. We go higher and higher. Suddenly we stop. I look down as it seems the first tribute arrived at the cornucopia. I looked down and think that it seems okay to drop from this height. I yelp as my legs are wacked with a wooden plank. "I got it!" I hear from Lance. I see him drop his chain and begin to fall. But I am yanked forward as I hear Lance scream in pain. Although Lance completed his chain, he was still connected to me and Noma. "Done!" Casper yells. I get ready as i'm yanked backwards. I had to finish and fast. My arms were beginning to lose blood and without me finishing soon, everyone would be at risk of death. I had never needed my Axe more than I did now.

Casper Ware (10)
We were all running out of time. Soon everyone would've reached the cornucopia. The only luck we had was that the Tributes would begin their own battles before we all dropped. I quickly reached down and picked up my Axe and Throwing Knives. Lance had done the same and was watching me like a hawk. He didn't want a fight but if I attacked him or Jayson, he would be on me in a matter of seconds. Jayson was beginning to freak, not knowing what to do. Nobody could hear anything from Noma but he still wasn't untied. I had to do something to save us all. I decide that I would be safe if I helped Lance and Jayson. I began to yell out commands to Jayson. Helping him to become untied. It wasn't long before Lance had stepped in as well. Luckily with me and Lance, Jayson was able to calm down and listen to us. "Done!" He yelled. Jayson began to drop and so did me and Lance, but again we were stopped because Noma wasn't finished. I looked towards Noma, to see what was happening. Suddenly I heard his chain unlock and we all dropped landing, akwardly on the ground. There didn't seem to be anyone around but they would come quickly. Lance had already untied him self from the rest of us. He then began to help Jayson. Noma was already on to his. I grabbed my Axe and chopped off my chain, finally getting freedom. I look towards Lance and Jayson; "Thanks" They both say. "Anytime" I reply. I then quickly turn and run. Diving into the cool water surrounding the cornucopia. I didn't have it in me to fight, but maybe I had found my second alliance during these games.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
I had taken refuge in the upstairs room of the cornucopia. I was here with my Spear for Noma. He had turned on me, not only to quick me out of his alliance, but the games as well. I had heard commotion and knew they had finally dropped. I quickly edged down the stairs. Seeing the coast was clear, I ran out looking for Noma. I scanned my eyes around finally locking him in my sight. I began to bolt towards him but he was ready for me. Though not in the way I expected. He was leaving, running away. He began to dive into the water below. But I wasn't ready for him to leave. In a split second decision, I threw my Spear with all my might towards his body. It missed with inches to spare. It continued into the water. Noma had seen the Spear and realised I was now defenless. He began to swim towards my only weapon in these games. I bolted to the edge of the cornucopia and flew into the air with a perfect dive. I slowly began to swim towards my Spear and Noma. The Spear had sunk to the bottom of the water. Noma had already begun his search when I arrived. He came up for air and saw me. In the blink of an eye he had me by the shoulders, pushing me under, futher and futher. I tried to do something but he had wrapped his legs around me. I began to scream, losing air quickly. My body began to feel hot and tingly. I was going pass out in a matter of seconds. Somehow I found some strength inside of me. I shot my elbow into Noma's rib cage. He loosened his grip. I swam up, gasped for air before again shooting my elbow into Noma's skull. He was dazed. I tried again but he moved, my elbow hit his neck as I loud crack went ringing throughout my ears. I used my feet to push Noma's body underwater. I kept gasping for more and more air. I swam back to the cornucopia. '''BOOM!!! '''I had beaten him, Noma would never again be in my life. I saw the glint of my Spear in the water as it seemed to have risen. The gamemakers probably had something to do with that. I swam out towards it and began to swim to shore. I saw another girl walking in the Forest. She looked back at me and smiled. It was Kasha the District 12 girl. It seemed we were the only ones to show up at the game today. I eventually made it to the shore. I was finally one step closer to my victory and my home. District 9 would be proud of me, I was doing well. But I had to keep it up if I wanted to survive.

Kasha Rye (12)
The game was over. The gamemakers wouldn't be pleased. Only one death happened to occur and from their fight, it looked like they would've eventually gone after each other. Time was running out, Tributes were quickly dying and we were all ready to do whatever it took for victory. It was Day 5 and it was already down to the final 9, eventually reaching the final 8. The gamemakers wanted action, and nothing was stopping them. We knew the time was coming, and we all needed to be prepared. I finally reached the ruble of the Mountains; the hiding place of my supplies and extra weapons. I picked up my Sword and Acacia's Spear and packed all my new supplies in my backpack. I had never intended to fight at the game, I just wanted more supplies and a few knives for extra protection. I knew that I now had great chances with all my weapons and supplies, I just had to put them to good use. My biggest target and my biggest enemy, is Lance. He had killed Jake with no mercy and I still hadn't recieved a shot for payback. I had seen that Lance was in an alliance with Jayson, as they were leaving the game together. Though I didn't need to fight him or stalk him, when the time came I would be ready and Lance wouldn't be. I started searching for new tree of life; my sleeping tree. It wasn't long before I was up and ready. I needed all the rest I could for tomorrow, it seemed that wasn't going to be an easy day of killing Tributes. I had to work hard for my victory and I was preapared to do so.

Lance Ampere (5)
Midday was finally passing and the after was beginning to roll in. The arena's temperature was finally beginning to drop from the midday's boiling heat. Luckily Jayson and I had both escaped the game unharmed, and it was all thanks to Casper. He had saved Jayson and in turn saved all Noma, I and himself. Unfortunetly, now we all owed him. Though this was the Hunger Games and I wasn't holding any promises to anyone. Soon Jayson and I would have to split, especially when the final 7 came. When we parted, we'd no longer be allies, we'd be enemies. But anyone could tell that between us, it wouldn't be easy to kill each other. Only because Jayson single handedly saved my life, and for that I definetly owed him. He was a worthy ally, we trusted each other so much that for not even for a second did we think about being betrayed. We understood each other and the hard times it took to get here. Though eventually a final cannon would sound and only one of us would be left. The game today had brought one death. Not that me or Jayson cared but we were intregued to find out. From our camp we could see the hovercraft lifting up the body. There was no mistake that it was a man. It looked like Aurum to me but it seemed a definet Noma to Jayson. He was probably right. Aurum probably wounldn't have risked coming to a bloodbath game like that, especially since he was now on the right like all the final 9 Tributes. Though soon these games would be over and there would be one victor left standing. As much as I enjoyed Jayson, I had to be the Victor of the 259th Hunger Games. My family was counting on that.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
The radiant arena sun was setting quickly. It wouldn't be long before night came around. Amanda and I were still in our same spots, though we had spent the day hunting for not only Tributes but animals as well. We were running low on supplies and we needed to re-stock fast. The animals seemed to be disappearing more and more every day. That's why we grabbed everything we could for our survival over the next couple of days. The game had been interesting. I had decided to go take a look and hope by chance Aurum would show up. Though he didn't even make an appearance. Nothing much else did happen but it was interesting to see that girl kill Noma. It seemed they had dropped their alliance after we'd stopped by. The days were becoming pretty uneventful with a death here and there. Soon the Capitol citizens or the gamemakers would snap. Trying to kill anyone for more entertainment. It seemed they were trying something now. Large, dark, thunder clouds hovered over the arena. I supposed that would be interesting, death by thunder. I smiled at the image in my mind. Amanda and I weren't worried, the same had happened yesterday and we had been unharmed. Time passed and not a single droplet of rain, a clap of thunder or a lightning bolt had occured. I decided to jump down from our tree and see what was going on. I began to walk towards the cornucopia for a clear view of the skies. Though on my way, I flash of lightning blinded my eyes. My ears began to ring as the sound echoed throughout the arena. It was soon followed by another loud crack. Though it wasn't lighting or thunder, it was the sound of rock cracking. I wondered; another Mountain avalanche? I turned myself around to find a massive wall of water rushing towards me. I stood in fear, my feet glued the ground. The wave smashed into my body and shot my back towards the cornucopia. I was flipped and turned in every way possible. Until final I was shoved out of the strong current. I shot up to the surface gasping for air. I looked around, before I was blinded with water. Then it stopped. There was no more current and no more dark clouds. I looked around, the cornucopia was missing. I swam back towards the shore, where I saw Amanda. She was lying, unconsiunce on the beach. I quickly picked her up and carried her back to our tree, hiding her out of sight. I checked her pulse, she seemed to be alright and would eventually wake up. I tried to understand what had happened. The loud crack wasthe rocks cracking. They must have been holding a massive amount of water from yesterdays rain. It had wiped out me and Amanda as well as any other Tributes in its path. Then I was shot out of the current as the wave hit the cornucopia and swallowed it up. Then it clicked, last year the exact same had occured but in the form of a tornado. Then fear struck in side of me, I realised what occured afterwards. Tomorrow would most likely be round 2 of the Chirp vs Lucrian battle. I realised tomorrow could be my victory or my death. Either way I had to make my family, District and especially Bronze proud. There was no room for error, I had to be prepared because Aurum would not go down without a fight.

Aurum Chirp (2)
Night had finally begun, signifying the end of our 5th day in the arena. Annabeth is staring at me, I could feel it. She was becoming worried, scared, nervous. I couldn't allow that to happen. The minute we started guessing our moves and intentions, the minute everything begins to unravel and dissapear. That was the one thing I knew that I couldn't do, or let Annabeth do. Though I was becoming paranoid about the gamemakers. Today, Annabeth and I didn't exist. We had been ready for the day, but when that announcment came. I knew there was no way I was going. I tried to get Annabeth to scout things out but she wouldn't budge. So we used our alone time as proper as we could. Annabeth went out hunting for food and water, while i'll slept. I needed all the rest I could have. The days were now becoming more deadly and dangerous. By the time Annabeth had come back, it was midday and a cannon had sounded. We decided to eat some of the meater animals, Annabeth brought back from hunting. Then Annabeth decided to get some extra rest. I stood guard, entertaining myself by throwing things into the force field in front of me. Then that thunder storm. It almost defend me and woke up Annabeth in a flash. Then the cracking noise made my spine shiver. Anyone could hear the sound of rushing water. My feet started running towards it, as I saw the massive amount of water tear through the Jungle, ripping down tree's. Annabeth pulled me back, saying it wasn't safe. The paranoya was definetly getting to me as I knew the gamemakers could pull that same stunt on us at any moment. The days were always going past and Tributes were always dying. That line was the only thing that would calm myself down. I had to remember that wave obviously didn't hit us for a reason. We were from District 2 and we were hiding, not even hunting, Tributes. Ryan was still out there but once he was out of the way, nobody could stop me. I would be the Victor of the 259th Hunger Games, that was per fate.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
I had survived two whole day's without an alliance. I was the youngest Tribute in this Hunger Games and I am still alive at the end of Day 5. Today was the day I made my first kill. Inside the arena and inside my whole life. I didn't feel different, I felt relieved. He was gunning for me all day but I beat him, and killed him. He had deserved to die, he should've died in the bloodbath and had I known what he'd be like, I would've never talked to him. But now with Noma dead, nobody was coming for me. Everyone thought I was just a scared girl and at the sight of a Sword, I would drop dead. They had something coming there way. I was prepared. I was going to kill anyone, nobody would notice me. Then in the finale, when they are standing dead still in shock, I will send me Spear into the hearts of my competitors. Then they will realise how dumb they were to doubt me or any other Tribute in these games. Then when i'm at home in the Victor's Village, with my family and my friends, watching replays of my Victory, you'll know that I should've died in the bloodbath. I was ready for anything and anyone. The anthem began to play.

The Fallen

District 3 - Noma Ambrose

My victim. There he was, and now he was gone for good. Those Tributes were never coming back, and I would never look back or second guess my actions. I wanted to win, I had to win, all to survive. Nobody would fool me, or trick me. I wasn't taking sides with anyone. I wanted my home and I wanted my family and friends. Soon they would be with me forever.

Casper Ware (10)
Noma... So somebody had gone after him. Not that I ever liked him, he was basically a Career and over time it seems he began to show, feel and act like one. I knew I safe, everyone knew they were safe. Since everyone was in the Jungle, we all knew that hunting for others could mean imediet death. I had almost experienced it first hand. I had been grabbing some water when that massive thunder crack boomed throughout the arena. I bolted back to my tree and got to the top in lightning speed. Thank God for the gamemakers strong and tall, Jungle tree's. The water bashed against the tree and would've swallowed me up from my normal seat. Luckily I ecsaped uninjured and with all of my supplies. The day had finally pasted. There were still 9 Tributes fighting for survival. I wondered how much longer everyone could survive, and how much longer we'd be inside the arena. We were finishing Day 5, last year the Games were 7 Days long. In my lifetime, the longest games to occur were 13 Days. Most Tributes ended up dying of more naturl causes, which isn't good for entertainment. I supposed that's why they kept the games short and in control. These Games could last 7 Days but they could also last 13 Days. It all came down to our survival and gamemakers wicked plans. I knew that I could survive easily for a few more days. But then I would begin to struggle, physicaly and mentally. I wanted to go back to District 10 with the Victors crown. All the pride and glory I would have. All that was in my way was survival and 8 deadly Tributes. My chances weren't high but they were there. I just had to use them. It was now time to show the Capitol everything I had, it was the only way I would survive.

Here is some Tribute Information: Alliances
 * Both Tributes from Districts C, 3, 4, 6, 8, 11 and 13 are Dead

<h4 style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;">Jayson Huff (7) The sun fially rises, signifying the 6th Day in the arena. I look besides me to see Lance already alseep. It was his turn to take guard last night. I jump down from our tree and walk to the bushes. I pull out the backpack containing our supplies. I take a few bones and nuts from the supplies and have a meal. The time was going by fast, soon the final 8 Tributes would be shown and not long after, the Victor. Lance was my only ally, the only one I would ever trust in this arena. But we both knew that our time together was running out. Eventually, weather we chose it or we get forced into it, we would have to split or end up facing each other for the fight of victory. We both knew that we couldn't afford that. I knew that it was soon and right now I was waying up my options. I could be safe and leave today or this morning, or I could stay with Lance up until tomorrow. I knew that I wasn't going to leave and I knew that even though tomorrow would have less Tributes, it would still be okay to then break apart. Once I had finsihed, I went back up in the tree. Listening to the sounds of the Jungle, the ruslhing of the trees and bushes, the chirps of the birds and all the other animals. I felt at home, back in my District. I wondered what they thought of me. I had been pretty sucessful for my District. I had made 2 kills and had survived into the top 9. I remebered watching last year's games. The boy died in the bloodbath and the girl died in 8th place. I had to make myself remembered. I had to survive into at least the top 5. That would definetly impress my District. The only question was would I be there? The answer was probably lurking right around the corner.

Kasha Rye (12)
I feel the heat radianting off the sun as I begin to open my eyes. My heat slowly beats in my chest as I wake up to the beautiful green tree's and sunshine. Sleeping had finally found me last night. I had taken the advantage of the situation. I looked around and remembered I was alone, in Hunger Games arena on its 6th Day. The thought didn't effect me but it reminded me of home. The smell of burning coal in the mornings and waking up to the fresh smell of my mothers bread. I immedietly shut my head down. I had to be ruthless, shut down my emmotions. Then I would be able to get home, as the 259th Victor. I quickly grab my supplies and all my weapons. I jump down from my tree and go hunting for some food. It wasn't long before I found some nuts and berries in a bush. They were harmless as I scoufed them all down. I then decided to head towards the Mountains. Of course I was met with a pile of rumbled rock and dust but that didn't effect me. I began climb the boulders and rocks, occasionally slipping and sending dust and pebbles to the ground. Eventually i'm high enough to see the whole arena. I could see the Island far far away, that was dead. If anyone tried to reach it i'm sure the gamemakers would either stop them or destroy it. Then there was our pedestals and the cornucopia, only it wasn't there. It was rock, nothing else. I quickly scanned my eyes over the Jungle. I saw a large clearing at the Island's end. I decided that was my next stop. I climbed down and careful and quietly began my way to the clearing. The missing cornucopia had proved my suspicisions. The gamemakers were ready, the battle between Districts 1 and 2 were about to begin. Today could be the ending of District 1 and District 2, that would even playing field. They were trained better, they were more prepared. With them gone, the games would just begin.

Day 6... I remembered watching last year's Hunger Games. Bronze vs Nathaniel, District 1 vs District 2. The whole District was in the town square watching for the moment that meant victory. The excitment had been buzzing as we knew that Bronze had a high chance of winning. The battle begun and District 1 began to go crazy. We wanted this win, to prove we were better than District 2. All the way Bronze had shown his firece fighting style and it had proved to be the most useful. I could still remember watching it on the big screen, Bronze began to swim down and give the final blow but Nathaniel gave it to him first. The energy back in District 1 dropped serverly, to almost dead silence. I knew that now coming in this arena with Aurum, there was always the chance we could end up in the same position as last year. It was Day 6... Anything could happen. I knew that when the announcment came, I would be in Bronze's shoes. I would have to win, win for District 1. I began to study last year's battle. Amanda was staring at me, knowing what I was thinking. She was of course watching last year as well. I knew she would support me but I wondered if she thought I could actual beat Aurum. An announcment began. "Tributes of the 259th Hunger Games. We have decided it is time to end a feud that has been going throughout these Hunger Games. We are now going to invite them down to the cornucopia for one final battle. The rules are simple, you shall be trapped until one of you is dead, you may bring any weapons you have or recieve from sponsors. The other 7 Tributes are invited to watch. The beach shall be a safe place for when the battle is occuring. Afterwards or beforehand you may fight as usual. These two Tributes are; Amanda Selkirk and Annabeth Elosegui. You have one hour until your battle, you must not be harmed until the fight has begun. Good Luck, and May the Odds be Ever in your Favor!". I shut my eyes. I stare at Amanda, she was in complete shock. I began to think, I had to save Amanda. "Watch out for her, okay. She will do whatever it takes and will show no mercy. Try and remember last year's battle as it will help you get an idea. Watch out for gamemakers twists. You just have to get to her, don't gloat or think you've one. You haven't one until that cannon sounds." I burt out. She is frightned and scared. I can tell, she thinks that she has no chance. I hug her, whispering encouragement into her ear. She sits there still and quiet. I know that she can do this. But I am still utterly shocked. Why wasn't it me and Aurum. I had no time to think about that, Amanda was my number one priority. She had a lot of pressure on her shoulders and it was taking its tole.

<h4 style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;">Aurum Chirp (2) The time had come to end the feud between not only Districts 1 and 2, but Amanda and Annabeth as well. They had of course both been dragged into this by Ryan and myself. But it didn't bother me. Annabeth was ready for this fight, nothing was stopping her. She had the skills and weapons to do whatever necessary. I had no doubt that she would walk out of this battle alive. Though our time in an alliance was over. Once Annabeth left for the battle, we would then begin fighting for victory; at whatever cost. She knew that, she always knew that. I would've gone with Annabeth to the battle but only to look for Ryan. Unfortunetly the  beach safety rule, made that difficult. I wasn't going to risk anything, especially not this close to victory. Though if I had of been battling Ryan today, I would've been ready. I was always ready to tear Ryan apart. I could see Annabeth stocking up on food and water before her battle. I knew that when Annabeth came out of this fight, she would never be a threat to me. I would always to be faster, stronger and more agail than her. After this battle was complete only the final 8 Tributes would be left in the arena. I knew I could beat all of them, the only challenge would be Ryan. Hatred was driving his motivation and that could tip the scales in his favor. My cousin killed his cousin and embarrsed his District. Although us Careers were normaly togther, when we weren't it was dead war. Plus all Career Districts were striving to be the best and have the most successful Tributes. Of course District 2 would always win but that didn't stop the others from competing. Though these sorts of hatreds never work well. Last year proved that. District 1 and 2 fought, both losing overall, and District 4 came out on top. Now I respected my cousin but from his actions, he was very much like Max Knightmare from the Capitol in these games. Ready to kill anyone and would go crazy to do so. Annabeth stood up, signaling it was time for her to go. She had her weapons, skills and strengths to play Amanda with. We stared into each others eyes. We could never see each other again. She nodded and began to walk, our alliance was over; I was now on my own.

<h4 style="margin-top:0.4em;margin-bottom:0.5em;">Amanda Selkirk (1) The sun was rising higher and higher every minute; signaling that the battle was no more than 30 minutes away. Ryan had agreed to attend, watch when I finally had my victory. I had begun on this journey with him, leaving Annabeth and beginning another battle. Now this battle was coming to a close. I had all my weapons ready for Annabeth. I wasn't playing around, Ryan's words really helped. Last year's battle proved that the longer it lasted the worse it got. I couldn't afford to be Nathaniel; winning but having lost so much life and energy. I still had the chance to be the victor and I always would have the chance until I heard the final cannon. Ryan finally returned after hiding our supplies. I jumped and we began to walk to the beach. Ryan of course had a weapon as he wasn't safe until the battle begun. We walked all the way to water and sat down on the soft sand. I knew that with me next to Ryan, nobody would dare attack him. Ryan of course had faith in me and of course I had faith in myself as well. Though I wondered about my District and more importantly my Mentor and Family. The stakes were very high for this battle. The pressure was all around me. Though I couldn't let it affect me or more importantly my life. I was from District 1 and I had to be proud of that. Annabeth had skill, she was a Career. But so was I and I wouldn't leave anything to chance. "Sorry to interrupt, love birds. Just want to let you know i've arrived and i'm fully prepared. But i'll see you on the battlefield Amanda." said Annabeth. "Its to bad because from my prediction, you want be seeing much longer. Its on Bitch!" I say back Annabeth stares at me before storming off towards the rocky ledges. "Nice!" said Ryan. I say good bye and decide to headout. That conversation helped, Annabeth was prepared but I would alwas outsmart her. I reach a rocky ledge and pull myself up. I begin to walk down towards the open, clear, rocky circle. Annabeth is already their waiting. I eventually make my way opposite her. I feel behind me that the forcefield has already begun. The battle would soon begin. I remembered Ryan telling me to study Annabeth's body language and weapons. It wasn't hard she was ready to kill and would use her Machete and Knife to do whatever it took. "Tributes. This battle will decide the final 8 Tributes in the 259th Annual Hunger Games. This is why this battle is so significant. We wish Amanda and Annabeth the best of luck, though it isn't luck they will need. Time is of the essence, would had for either of you to get nailed. Though your time is now up, your battle begins... NOW!!!" For the first time, my lif was truely in the balance.

Annabeth Elosegui (2)
I stand waiting for the first move. Amanda had an advantage, having two Swords at the ready. I only had my Machete and my Knives inside my pockets. Suddenly the battle was beginning. Amanda drove herself towards me, holding both Swords to my skull. I ducked and circled back. My strategy was to not fight until she had used her energy. She again ran towards me, missing again. She stood still, glaring her eyes at me. I bolted towards her, my Machete ready for her blood. She blocked before swinging her other Sword at my skull. I ducked and swung my Machete towards her own skull. She blocked and before she could attack with her other, I tackled her to the ground. I was stronger and faster than her. I had her pinned down in no time. I pulled out a Throwing Knife from my pocket. She took advantage of my situation and thrashed her legs around, throwing me off. She picked herself up as well as her Swords and came running at me. I threw my Throwing Knife towards her, she doged and plunged the Sword right where my head used to be. She tried to pull it out but it was jammed in the rocks. I pulled out my proper Knife and ran at her. She blocked then punched me in the stomach. I let out a groan before my anger went crazy. I dropped my Knife and punched her back in the stomach, then again tackling her to the ground. I punched her in the face again and again, eventually hearing a crack. She let out a scream of pain before elbowing me in the skull. She pushed me off her and I flew back. I opened my eyes to see the sky's clouds becoming darker. Amanda ran at me with her Sword, I grabbed my Knife and stabbed it into her left foot. Though her Sword had pinned down my hair, I was stuck. She kneed my in the face before shoving my head into the rocks. I began to feel dazed, and dizzy. I yanked out the Sword and tried to shove it into Amanda's stomach, though she moved and shoved my head back down into the rocks. A loud thunder clap sounded and we both shot our heads up. A storm was beginning. I looked next to me to find that Amanda had runaway. I could vagely see her but it had begun to rain heavily. This battle wasn't going to plan. We were both injured but still vereing to go. Amanda would die at whatever cost.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
The rain had provided cover for me. My foot and face were aching like hell, and Annabeth had a one way ticket. I had my Throwing Knives ready to go. The rain was becoming heavier and heavier, weighing me down. I tried to look around but I couldn't see anything. I walked towards the center of the rocks, Annabeth was no where to be found. Suddenly I heard the sound of running footsteps in puddles. I turned just in time to duck from Annabeth's swinging Sword. I ducked again and landed of one knee. I pulled out a Throwing Knife and jammed into her leg. She swung the Sword down and I rolled away. I threw another Throwing Knife seeming to hit her, though I couldn't be sure. She was looking for me but I had her in my sights. I threw another Throwing Knife though it missed as she turned, revealing my location. I began to run but my shoulders began to tingle. They started to feel like needles or pins were jabbing into me. I looked up but my forehead began to sting like crazy. Annabeth could feel it too, it was the gamemakers plans to speed it up. I ran back towards Annabeth with a Throwing Knife ready. I tackled her to the ground and tried to stab her in the skull but she doged. I reached into my pocket for another but she headbutted my face, adding to the pain I was feeling. She threw my off and began reaching for the Sword. I rolled over just as she swung it towards my body. I then rolled back and stabbed my Throwing Knife into Annabeth's chest. She screamed. I grabbed back my Sword. I stood up, showing my victory. I stomped on her face, breaking her jaw. I held up the Sword and brought it down into her skull. '''BOOM!!! '''I stood up, I was in shock and deep pain. My face and my foot weren't going to heal well. But I had showed Annabeth and District 1 had shown District 2. The clouds began to clear and the downpour stopped. I turned around and saw Ryan with the biggest smile on his face. I took one last look at Annabeth, she had been a Bitch but the Capitol had done that to her. She would never be seen again, and to be honest I would always be able to live with that.

Kasha Rye (12)
The cannon had sounded, signifying the final 8 Tributes and the final 3 female Tributes. The battle had been quite interesting. I had decided to go to see first hand what I could be up against. There wasn't much of a crowd as only Ryan and I, seemed to show up. Though I had only stayed in the tree line for safety. Amanda had won but had walked away with nasty injuries. She wouldn't be doing much for a while. Those two girls were going at each other like crazy. Anyone could see that a lot more than their lives were on the line, their pride, honor but most importantly their District. Everyone in the upper Districts knew about the hatred between District 1 and 2. I had been supporting Amanda just like the others in District 12, if they were watching. District 1 had won but that would've enjoyed anyone as nobody liked District 2 except District 2. Though now I had to think about my future in the games. I of course was better than Amanda right now with her injuries. I was stronger and smarter than Lucinda, making me the victorius girl. Lance wouldn't be too hard but Jayson and Casper could be stronger than me. Finally, Ryan and Aurum had of course more training than me, giving me a disadvantage. That meant right now, I could recieve 5th place and that just wouldn't do. I was here to win and that I would do. Nobody could stand in my way. If I had learnt anything from my training or from watching any Hunger Games, it would be that nothing was certain and there was always a solution for every problem. All I had to do was find some solutions, then I could have 1st place; victory.

The afternoon was finally beginning to role in. Thes last few days had been short and sharp. Deaths were randomly occurring and slowly less and less Tributes were remaining. District 9 would be proud, I had achieved the final 8. It would've quite some time sincc that had ever occurred. In last years games, we had lost both our Tributes on Day 2 right after each other; 19th and 18th. Plus with Parker dying on Day 3, things probably weren't looking too promising at home. Especially with my younge age. Although it took my a while, I have leanrt that its an alabi, knowing that everyone writes me off and never second guesses me. I was lucky, I could hide above people in trees without them noticing. Just before Ryan and Amanda had walked past me and didn't even see me. It was nice to know their was always a big kill nerby. Though I wasn't an idiot, I would never take two Careers on, one was by far enough. Seeing Amanda condition, hopefully I could catch her alone and make an amazing kill for sponsors. I wasn't surprised when I had seen that Amanda had come out her battle victorius. Annabeth had always seemed dead. Noma and Aurum were just the same. Each day and every hour, my chances were getting better. It seemed people's feuds were always too much for them. Nobody was gunning for me and that meant I could wait until everyone was gone and make the final kill. If I got home, District 9 would always be remembered for that. Any underdog that wins always was. Day 7 was just around the corner and when Day 9 came, I would be the final Tribute left, the victor. Showing my skill, bravery and courage, showing Panem that underdogs were out there, showing the whole country that District 9 still existed and showing my parents that they could be proud of me. That would mean the world to me and I would risk my world to get it.

Casper Ware (10)
The final 8, it had been revealed. I thought of the Capitol citizens that were probably out of their minds with excitment. Though none of that energy had rubbed offon anyone inside the arena. Everyone's chances were becoming better and everyday we all became stronger. We all were looking for the top prize, our homes, our family and victory. I was still hiden away in my tree, waiting for whatever had to come. I had wonder about my competition. I knew that Ryan and Aurum were out there, hunting each other down. That feud had saved many Tributes lives from the Careers. They would kill each other at first sight. With those two dead and either Amanda or Annabeth alive and injuried that left a competition between 5 Tributes. Lance, Jayson, Lucinda, Myself and Kasha. I knew that the males would give me a run for my life, meaning for myself it came down to a competition of 3. Hopefully the girls reached them first, allowing me to guarrenty me victory. I had a feeling the games were coming to an end. With another Tribute probably dying today, that left 7 Tributes on Day 7. Knowing the gamemakers a twist would be coming around the corner probably killing around 4 tomorrow. That meant the finale could take place on Day 8. That meant I had to survive disease, dehydration and starvation for the next two days. I knew that was possible, I knew killing and surviving other Tributes was possible and I knew survivng the gamemakers twist could be possible. What was standing in my way of victory? My mistakes and calculations. I just had to make sure they didn't effect my chances of survivng these games.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
Nightime was beginning to fall. The light was fading throughout the arena. I looked around, reminding myself where I was. Every District 1 Boy would want to be were I was now, inside a Hunger Games arena. I was like that last year as well, but I would give up and had of tried next year if that was possible. Aurum had changed everything. I was still alive having survived to the final 8, but I was in the Jungle for not only today but from Day 1. I had spent my games in hiding for my life. I had never once made a kill. I knew that my District would be disguisted with me. They were probably hoping that there would be no spot for me back home, in the victor's village. Though if I won, I wouldn't care. Though they would be enjoyed to have both their male and female in the final 8, as usual. Last year was terrible as the female died in the bloodbath and Bronze... he died 4th and didn't make the finale. The energy would be buzzing back home with the victory from Amanda. I knew that if it came down to us, nobody back home would be rooting for me over her. Amanda had managed two kills even though she had been in hiding with me. I wondered what the other District's and the Capitol thought of us. We had made the final 8 on Day 6 and were still together, in an alliance. It was risky but it was helping both of us. Amanda was still beaming with pride and joy, and she deserved too. That had been a ridiculous battle, Annabeth had definetly not back down. For a while I thought Amanda was gone but she had proved herself against a strong opponent and that was where District 1's pride came from. Even though District 2 Tributes were higly trained, we could survive them and beat them. Just like any other District that has a strong Tribute, that knows how to kill and protect. I begin to wonder what the next few days will bring when my thoughts are interrupted by an announcement. "Good evening Tributes. As the cannon has sounded we have been able to reveal the final 8 Tributes of the 259th Annual Hunger Games! We congratulate all of you for your efforts. But victory won't come easy for anyone. As some you may know Amanda from District 1 has walked out from her battle against Annabeth from District 2. We have had amazing feed back from Capitol citizens, it was exhilarating. Is it what we gamemakers try to achieve. That is why we have decided to give what the Capitol wants; round 2. We are now inviting Ryan from District 1 and Aurum from District 2 to a must-attend battle at the cornucopia. The same rules apply. You shall be trapped until one of you is dead, you may bring any weapons you have or recieve from sponsors and all other 6 Tributes are invited to watch as the beach shall still be a safe place. Remember that Ryan and Aurum you may not be harmed, plus the beach will be safe during the battle not before or after. The battle begins in one hour, Good Luck and May the Odds be Ever in Your Favor!" My stomach drops. I hadn't escaped the battle I was prepared for. This time I wasn't ready. Aurum and I would have the pressure of our Districts in abattle against each other in the full on dark. This was going to be an interesting battle to watch.

Lance Ampere (5)
The second feud was about to be resolved. District 1 and District 2, going after each other again. What was the point? Who did it benefit overall? The only thing I knew was that with the battle, I was guarrentyed a spot in the final 7. This allowed myself and Jayson to live longer, meaning our chances of victory were better. Everyone was just waiting for more and more cannons signally more and more deaths. We all wanted to prove to our Districts that we were worth something. We all wanted to get home to our families and our nes lives. But most of all we all wanted to be the victor. Everybody was prepared to do whatever to get the full pride and glory from these Hunger Games. Though that depended on how you survived and made decisions. Jayson, seemed to have a death wish. We were argueing weather attending to watch this battle was worth it. I was totally against the idea, why risk for our lives for something so simple. Though Jayson was insisting that we had to go, for strength purposes. He meant that we would be able to see who our competition was, what strategies they used and what their strengths were. He was right in those terms, but the announcment said only the beach was a safe zone and only during the battle. I wasn't ready to lose because I was watching somebody else. I eventually gave up argueing as it was going no-where, telling Jayson he could go but I would not. He looked at me as if I was crazy but then realised that I was serious and began to walk away. "I'll be back as soon as the battle is over and if you change your mind - which I suggest you do - i'll be on the beach right in front of the bushes I saved you in." He then turned and quietly walked off. He had tried to enversize the fact that he had saved my life. Though, maybe Jayson was right? It wouldn't be bad to see my competition and I would be safe with Jayson by my side. Though only when the battle had begun, when I would definetly be safe. I risk anything wth victory so close, it wasn't long before I found myself in the victors village with my whole family. Pride and honor beaming through me, Jayson was my best chance of survival and we needed each other's protection.

Aurum Chirp (2)
It was finally time. I was going to show that even a year later, Chirps were still better than Lucrians. The battle would settle many feuds for another year; Chirps vs Lucrians, District 1 vs District 2 and Aurum vs Ryan. I had the pressure from my District, from Nathaniel and from myself. Although Annabeth had lost her battle, I had to prove that District 2 was better than District 1. Nathaniel had won last year and I again to prove that Chirps were batter than Lucrians. Then their was the pressure of my life, hanging over my head and could be lost at any moment. Though I had all this pressure it wasn't going to get to me. I had to forget it, pretend that it didn't exist. That would allow me to prove all those thing and show Ryan who was better. The time was coming, soon the battle would begin. I packed up all my supplies and hid them in the bushes for my return. I grabbed all my weapons and headed off towards the cornucopia. It wasn't too long before I reached the beach. I looked out, it was basically pitch black. I wasted no time and began to swim to a rocky ledge. I pulled myself out and walked to the center circle. Suddenly a massive beam of light hit the circle. I looked around almost blinded by the harshness of the light. It seemed our battle wouldn't be in pitch black darkness. I began to warm up. I had my Axe in my right hand and my Sword in my left. I also had two Knives in each of my pockets. I warmed up my arms and swung my weapons around a few times. "I'm glad you could make it" I hear from Ryan behind me, "We didn't have a choice, though i'm glad you didn't back out." I reply. Ryan glares at me. He also has an Axe and a Sword in his hands. "Ready for me to prove that Chirps are still better than Lucrians?" I ask, "You mean i'm ready to avenge Bronze, becuase you've got a one-way ticket to hell." He replies. I glare at Ryan, we both aren't backing down and we both want this kill. "Tributes. This battle is round 2 of District 1 vs District 2, as well as the battle of Lucrians and Chirps. This battle will also decide the final 7 Tributes in the 259th Annual Hunger Games. We wish Ryan and Aurum the best of luck and we hope they learn't something from their families previous battle. Isn't drowning one of the worst ways to die? The Capitol is ready, your fans are ready, your battle begins... NOW!!!" Nathaniel was watching, District 2 was watching it was finally time to settle the feud, and that was possible when the cannon sounded.

Ryan Lucrian (1)
We both bolt towards each other, holding weapons high and ready for the attack. The Axes and Swords are swung against each other. My attacks are only getting blocked by Aurum's attacks and defenses. I begin a new approach, swining my Sword towards Aurum unprotected limbs; his legs and arms. I still have to watch out for both of Aurums attacks. My Sword eventually makes contact with Aurum shoulder but my shoulder recieves the blunt edge of his axe, pushing sideways. I swing my Axe and Sword back around trying to find a mark. It misses and Aurums Axe implaes my hip. I scream as blood begins to pour out, were my chances over already? I make my own decision, drop my Axe and run at him with my Sword. I catch him by surprise and make contact with his right arm and both of his legs, although these cuts aren't deep over time it could wear him out. Aurum also drops his Axe, knowing it will way him down. The Sword battle begins as he tries to stab my hip again. I block and go for the skull but jump back knowing Aurum will go for my legs. I bring down the Sword and stab right into Aurums left leg. He scream and swing his Sword my left leg taking out a chunk. I fall landing on my hip that is beginning to bleed out more and more. Suddenly I hear the familiar sound of thunder clouds, knowing the downpour was about to begin, I yanked out my Sword and began to run and grab my Axe. Though the downpour beat me and I slip, landing badly on my left hand. The pain was coming from everywhere, the whole side of left body felt dead. This battle wasn't over, it was just beginning.

Aurum Chirp (2)
The harsh light has still allowed for us to see each others figures. My leg was going to completly way me down. Though I had to end this battle before it got really bad. I begin to run towards Ryan having Sword at the ready. He saw me coming last minute and jumped out of the way. I tried to dive towards him but missed again. I jump getting ready to make the final blow. Though my Sword had travelled down to the rocks, it was jammed. I began to yank and pull, using all the strength I could. I turned around to find Ryan's Axe travelling through the air towards my skull. I duck but it still manages to bury itself in my shoulder. I yank it out and throw it right back towards Ryan, though it easily misses. I finally manage to grab my Sword, though half of it is covered in water. The water is rising quickly, again it will drown us until one has killed the other. I run towards Ryan swinging my Sword all over the place. He blocks but I have backed him up right to the forcefield. I swing the Sword towards his throat though he blocks. I push trying to out strength him. He begins to fall, he slides down until he is sitting. Then he let go, swung his Sword so hard at my Sword shooting it out of my grip, then he swam under me. I looked behind me and he shoved me back into the forcefield. I kneed him in the stomach and punched him in the face. I grabbed his Sword and chucked it away. The water was now up to my elbows, soon we'd be swimming. I grabbed Ryan by the throat and shoved him under water, though he also grabbed my throat and pulled me under, kneeing my in the chest. We rose to the surface and found the water up to our necks. I again dragged him under and again he pulled me down. Suddenly the harsh beam of light that was lighting up our circle switched off. I was thrown into complete darkness. I could feel Ryan's shoulders and throat. This was it, the finale. I reached into my pocket and pulled out my Knife. The harsh light beamed back on and I drove the Knife into Ryan's throat '''BOOM!!! '''I shoved Ryan's dead body away from me and rose to the surface. The forcefield dropped and the water spread out, taking Ryan's body and allowing me to stand. It was over, I had showed that I was better than Ryan but more importantly I showed that Chirps were better than Lucrians. I dropped to my knees. I looked up to the night sky as the athem began to play.

The end of the announcement booms throughout the arena. A feast, it was finally time. Only three, the odds were stacked against me. I knew it would be hard with my injuries but I had to pull through if I wanted victory. There was going to be some tuff competition, though hopefully with this medical kit could fix my wounds, so I would have the best chance of my survival.

The sun glares down over the arena. The Feast had arrived. The games were coming to a close, soon the final 3 would remain. Yesterday had been choc-a-block. News had spread throughout the arena; Amanda had managed to survive her battle against Annabeth. Though I didn't know how injured or weak she was, meaning she could still be a threat to my survival. Then when the announcment came for the Ryan vs Aurum battle, I knew that I had to see it for myself. I risked everything to watch the battle, staying right on the edge of the beach for safety. It had been amazing to see how argressive they fought. As soon as the cannon had sounded, I was off. The announcment had proved that Aurum had outlived Ryan. Though everyone had seen how injured Aurum had come to be. The announcment of the Feast hadn't surprised me though I wasn't expecting it this late in the games. Only 3 Tributes could swim out of this battle alive. I knew that nothing could left to chance, this was the pre-finale. This would show everyone who would make the final 3 in the 259th Hunger Games. I knew that I had a great chance of survivng. My biggest threat would be Aurum and Amanda. They were still Careers and knew strategies that most of us didn't. Though they were injured and that gave them a weakness. Lucinda and Kasha seemed to be my easiest kills, as Lucinda was younge and Kasha was weak. That left Lance and Jayson. I still wished they would stay clear of me. If they struck, Jayson and Lance would both be threats to me as they are stronger and faster. That meant that I had a good chance of reaching the final 3. Though my predicted competitin would most likely be Aurum and Amanda or Jayson and Lance. They were threats I couldn't have any of them with me in the final 3. Today was the day to take out the biggest threats, there was no doubt about that. A Feast had neer been more important than this one; everything was riding on it.

Amanda Selkirk (1)
Ryan... He was gone, out my life forever. He had stood by me the entire time, all for his families feud. He had given me his wisdom and had protected me throughout the games. I wanted to kill Aurum and I didn't care if my life depended on it, that idoit was going down. Though my battle had proved some struggles for me. The medical kit had helped tramendously. I was able to stitch up my foot and rub some disnfectent on it. I was also able to have some painkillers. This morning I could feel all the pain. My back was battered and bruised from the rocks and my stomach was still from Annabeth's punches. Though my face still stung like hell. My face was swollen and bruised, my mouth was bloody and my nose was definetly broken. Though there was nothing that I could really do about them. Ryan had definetly been nervous going into his battle, I had never seen him so freaked out. Though Aurum had got the better of him and now I didn't have to worry about taking him out myself if we were the final 2. Though Ryan was awesome and I needed him with me, every step of the way. I hoped he was watching from above, wishing me the very best of luck. I had been quite distraught last night and couldn't have cared less about the Feast. Though this morning, i've realised that only 3 can survive. I couldn't be taking this Feast as nothing because it was everything. There was no second chances once your cannon sounded it was over. Of course Aurum was my target but I knew he wouldn't go down without a fight. I was hoping that when his cannon sounded, the final 3 were standing. Allowing myself to survive and get revenge. Everyone else would target each other and pick each other off one by one. I was thinking that the alliance of males had a good chance of being my competition. I think there were Lance and Jayson, their chances of making the final 3 were high. Hopefully the other Tributes realised this and took them down. I needed every advantage with every move I made. Ryan didn't go down without a fight, and neither would I. It was game on, the final 3 would soon be revealed.

Lucinda Irongate (9)
The Feast had finally come around. It was finally time for the final 3 to show themselves, allow Panem to see who had the potential to reach the victory status. I knew that everyone had riden me off because of my strength and age. They had forgoten that I had achieved an 9 in training and had been expected to reach 9th place. They may have but I hadn't and I was going to use that to my adavantage. Amanda was my biggest threat, closly followed by Kasha. They all seemed higly trained in close-combat which was a weakness of mine. The boys probably didn't know that I existed and would leave me alone. Unless they came upon me in which they would think I would be an easy kill. I knew that I had to make a big impression. I needed to make one amazing kill and then slip away, surviving the Feast and reaching the final 3. I began to look at the sky wondering when the Feast would arrive. Almost one cue an announcment began. "Good Morning Tributes. As told, today shall be the Feast. This battle shall prove who has the strength and courage to reach the final 3. Your Feast Bags have risen at the cornucopia, the battle has now begun. 5 Minutes is all the delay we have allowed. Good Luck Tributes, any May the Odds be Ever in Your Favor!" It was finally time. I dropped from my tree and made my way to the beach. I stopped at the Jungle edge and peered through to see the battle. It was empty. Nobody had arived, I could see the bags with the District numbers. This was my chance, I bolted to the water. I looked behind to see an arrow shooting towards me. I dropped just in time. Kasha was out there. I began to swim my awkward stroke towards the rocky ledge. It felt like entirnety but eventually I reached the rocks. I pulled myself up and found many other Tributes swimming fast towards me. I used all my energy and bolted towards the table. I reached for the District 9 Bag; it contained a Spear. I yanked it out and tried to hide, waiting for anyone to attack or become defensless. Tributes began arriving quickly and it wasn't long before battles began. The Feast had officially begun.

Kasha Rye (12)
I was still hiden in the tree's. I knew that if I didn't reach the circle soon, I would be donefore. Though there was still another Tribute who hadn't arrived; Aurum. I could see Lucinda, Lance, Jayson, Casper and Amanda had already arrived. The clock was ticking. Then out of the corner of my eye, about 20metres away, I saw Aurum bolting and hobbling towards the water. On instincts, I ran towards Aurum with my Bow loaded and ready to fire. I missed the first two shots and hadn't taken him long to realise I was after him. He was halfway swimming towards a rocky ledge when my arrow finally hit Aurum in the shoulder blade. Though it didn't slow him down, I fired again but knew that he was out of range. I dived into the water and used all my skills to reach the other rocky ledge. I pulled mysel up and saw Aurum just reaching the circle. I loaded my Bow and aimed for his skull. It missed and began to run towards him looking for closer range. I ran towards to Bag table and realised that mine was the only one left. I grabbed it and flung it over my shoulder. I looked for Aurum and realised that I had lost him. Suddenly pain shot through my thigh and I looked down to find a Knife buried in my thigh. Then a hand shot from under the table. It grabbed the Knife and yanked it out. Blood poured everwhere. I dropped to the ground, loaded my Bow and shot, missing again. I loaded again and through the crowd managed to hit Aurum's shoulder. I tried to grab another arrow, though I realsed that I had used up all of them. I threw the useless weapon away, i still had my Sword and Spear with me. Blood was still pouring everywhere, I had to compress the wound. I looked around, knowing there was nothing to help me. Then an idea shot into my mind. I grabbed my sheath and teared it apart. It wasn't long before I had it the perfect size to wrap around my wound. I stood up looking for Aurum, he was occupies battling Casper. My eyes darted throughout the field looking for my next target. They locked on and I bolted as fast as I could towards him; Lance. I jumped up and takled him to the ground. Hr stared into my eyes. I was about to bring down my Sword but he kneed me in the stomach; winding me. He pushed me off him and stood up. He tried to kick me but I rolled over, standing up myself. He tried to punch but I blocked and kicked him in the side of the skull. He was dazed. I grabbed his shirt and pushed him into the surrouding forcefield. I pulled out my Sword and whispered "This is for Jake you bloody bastard" into his ear. Suddenly he got his hand free and elbowed the side of my head. I fell down to the ground, almost losing conisceneous. He grabbed my shirt by two hands and pulled me up to his face. "Jake's revenge won't come from you" he whispered. He shoved back down on the ground and in a split second, I had his Throwing Knife in my skull '''BOOM!!! '''Jake...

Aurum Chirp (2)
The first fatal cannon had boomed throughout the arena. Though I had no time to check I list to see who hadn't survived. Kasha had come after me with everything she had, giving me stupid arrows in my shoulders. Then Casper had decided to take me on. I would have killed him too but the next thing I knew, Jayson had tackled me to the ground. He had come at me with his Axe's blaring all up in my face. I still had my Knife and Sword in my hands. I ducked, doged and weaved all around his Axe's and waited for the right time to attack. Jayson was becoming tired and exhausted. I then shoved him down and brought my Sword down towards his chest in lightning speed. Though he had rolled, jumped up and had round kicked my back. I swung my Sword towards him, though his Axe was ready and he brought it round. He had swung the Axe so hard the my Sword went flying. He then made a fatal mistake. He watched the Sword fly through the air, smiling as being pleased with himself. He shot his head back to me but I was ready. I punched his face as hard as I could, Jayson stumbled back and fell on the ground. I tried to jump on him with my Knife ready for his blood. Though he still had some strength, he held my wrists making sure the Knife couldn't reach him. He then kneed me in the chest, grabbed the Knife and threw it away. I was now defenless but Jayson was still winded from my face punch. I leant down and grabbed his Axe, he then kicked me in the stomach. He shoulder charged me and I fell back. Jayson was too dilarious to come after me. Ahead of me I saw Jayson's partner in crime; Lance. I stood up and with every ounce of energy in me threw the Axe right into Lance's skull '''BOOM!!! ''' I felt a tap on my shoulder, I turned around and saw Jayson's face. "Go to Hell!!!" he yelled, "Make me!" I yelled back. In one quick movement, Jayson had brought his Axe up. He swung it right into my neck, slicing it into two. I fell knowing the time had come. Jayson then used all his anger and lodged the Axe deep into my chest '''BOOM!!! '''Life...

Amanda Selkirk (1)
The third cannon boomed throughout the arena. It signifyied only one more death had to occur before the final 3 were revealed. I could see Jayson standing over Aurum's body, Casper was sitting in the corner seeming to treat his injuries, I was looking for some extra supplies and weapons by hoping to find some other Districts Bags. I thought about what I had just said for a second, where and who was the fourth Tribute. Suddenly Lucinda landed in front of me and tried to jab me with her Spear. I jumped up and swung my Sword towards her. She blocked with her Spear then out of nowhere she tried to jab me with another Spear. I doged and swung my Sword from side to side, hoping to land a hit. Suddenly she had picked up on my movements and predicted my moves. She blocked and felt the Sword leave my grip. I was defencless. I bolted away from her and ducked as she sent her Spear flying towards me. I bent down, grabbed the Spear and with all my might brought it down on my leg, breaking it into too. Then I remembered something about the forcefields from last years games. I chucked the two strips up in the air and over the forcefield barier. They landed with a splash in the water. Lucinda was just staring at water knowing she had lost a weapon. On instinct I ran towards her and tackled her to the ground. I pulled out my Knife and tried to stab her skull. Though she wriggled around and it missed. I just kept looking for opportunities and eventually made a mark by stabbing Lucinda's arm. She palmed my face and kneed me in the chest. She shoved me off her and began stabbing down with her Spear. Though I rolled and dodged. Lucinda's Spear was in the rocks, she was glaring at me. I swung my leg round and hit the Spear in the middle again breaking it in two. She stared at the broken Spear. She screamed in fury, dropped the weapon and ran towards me. She grabbed me by the neck and takled me down. She was chocking me. Though I was stronger. I rolled over and was on top of her. I grabbed her neck and began to choke her. Lucinda's hands were trying to sctrach my face, so in one quick movement I pinned them down. She was quickly running out of air but it wasn't quick enough. I wasn't going to give her a chance to escape. I pulled her body up by her neck and shoved her head back down again. Slamming her head in the rocks. I did it again and again. Tears were forming in her eyes. I let go of her neck and got off her body. She layed their, still and quite. The first tear stroke down her face '''BOOM!!! '''I stared into Lucinda's eyes. I leant down and closed them. I shot my head back as I heard two splashes of water. The Capitol would be going beserc. Amanda Selkirk, Casper Ware and Jayson Huff were the final 3 in the 259th Annual Hunger Games.

Jayson Huff (7)
I outlook over the arena as the sun begins to set. I look around, having the tree all to myself. It was quite, cold and I was so alone. Lance... what had happened? I remembered Lance's energy, he wanted this feast more than anything. All to get back to his home and family in District 5. Lance had always talked differently when it came to his family. He loved them more than anything and would do anyhting for them. I had always wished for a family like that, ones that would always support me, keep me from danger and love me for my personality. As soon as the annoucment had finshed Lance was up and ready. We ran down the hill and towards the shore. We could see Lucinda already reaching the water. We both bolted out from the treeline and made it to the water without any problems. Though the swimming really slowed us down. By the time we had reached the centre-circle, Amanda and Casper had already shown. We first of course ran for our bags, with Amanda and Casper battling and Lucinda nowhere to be seen, as we knew we were safe for the timebeing. Lance ripped his open to find a Sword gleaming at him. I quickly grabbed mine and found a Bottle of Poison, which I quickly stashed away. Kasha and Aurum had shown clearly having an issue with eah other. Lance went to help Casper against Amanda and I went hunting for Lucinda. I couldn't seem to find her, though Amanda hadn't made it any eaiser. She came at me but we were both sidetracked by the first cannon; Kasha. I used the diversion to quickly move away. I suddenly saw Casper losing to a battle against Aurum and didn't waste time interferring. He was stronger and quicker than me, though I had given him a fight. I was on ground knowing the final blow would come but then a saw the Knife hit Lance and I... Lost it. I grabbed my Axe and and swung at his neck before lodging it inside his chest. I just stood their with disgust, anger, saddness and every emotion possible. I quickly jolted my head around and seeing no battle's and three Tributes. Though I knew there were four, suddenly Lucinda appeared in front of Amanda and I knew that I had done it. I went over to Casper and helped him out. When Lucinda's cannon had sounded I looked at Casper and we both noded, diving in the water knowing the finale would be our next meeting. I eventually made it back to my shelter. Lance's death had happened in an instant. Had I stopped Aurum, Lance would be here, fighting for his family. Lance was not only my alliance member but my friend, he was the only real friend that i'd had in my life. For that, I would never forget Lance and what he did for me.

Casper Ware (10)
Finale 3... I was still here fighting for my survival. I still had a chance of becoming Victor, going back to my family and living a normal life in District 10. I wanted that more than ever and nothing was going to stop me from obtaining it. The Feast. I hadn't been able to make a kill though I didn't feel that I needed to. As much as I was prepared to make those moves when nesscary, I saw no reason at the Feast. I had made one kill inside the arena and would make another two tomorrow, equalling three. Though that didn't bother me, the Feast had. In the morning I knew the Feast would begin soon, so I ventured towards the treeline in front of the rubbled montains. The announcment rang throughout the arena and I saw I figure running towards the water. Though I wasn't that stupid, I was waiting for the right time. I saw another and was pretty sure that other could be out of my sight. So I bolted to the water and swam towards a rocky ledge. I made it to the centre-circle to see Amanda already coming for me. I bolted around the circle and began swinging my Axe like crazy. Amanda also had Axes and was gunning me down. It seemed our Axe skilld were evenly matched. Though she had managed to slice my shoulder. Kasha and Aurum suddenly showed up and that created enough caous for me to grab my bag and rip it open. It contained Throwing Knives. I yanked them out and stuffed them in my pockets. Amanda was still coming for me but now with a long distance weapon she couldn't reach me. Lance had begun to take Amanda's attention, I ran looking to hide in the cauos. The first cannon bommed and I saw Lance over Kasha's body. Suddenly I ran into Aurum and the battle began. He had weapons that he had trained his whole life with and it easily showed as he was quickly overpowering me. Luckily Jayson had jumped in and saved my life; equalling the scores. I could see Jayson was having some luck but also some dificulties. I was still battered from my previous battle and watched as Lance's cannon boomed throughout the arena. Jayson suddenly had the strength of ten men and with ease allowed Aurum's cannon to boom as well. I knew that one life had to go and for a second I thought Jayson could come for me. Though when he came he was different, sadness rang throughout his voice. He helped my injuries as Lucinda and Amanda battled it out. The final cannon boomed and we both drove ourselfs into the water, away from Amanda. We knew that the fnale would be our next meeting and after that there was nothing but the crown or the black screen that could be seen from your eyes; it was fight for victory and either lose or win. It was simple though it wasn't. With the finale right in front of our faces, it was time for every ounce of energy to be poured into battle. Just like Jayson I had use everything to win because there were no second chances.
