Hey guys! I'm trying to be serious because this story is kinda gory and it PAINS me to write it...but it makes a good tale that's filled with heart-breaks, love, hatred and...death. And who's better to tell it than the legendary Sips himself? Sjips couple is in this as well as Zoethian...but uh...not for very long- SPOILERS!

PS. I have no idea why I find writing in a Sips POV so easy because I am a girl and I'm not really anything like him lol...I'm more like Rythian or Zoey but I find it hard to get inside of their mind.

I watched as the silver podiums rose up each of us, we were in teams:

Sjin and I

Xephos and Honeydew

Lomadia and Lalna

Rythian and Zoey

Nilesy and Panda

Martyn and Toby...

The friends I used to know now have to become people I struggle to kill and be killed by if we aren't lucky.

I looked over at Sjin who was panting heavily, I didn't know how to comfort him at all...the only thing I could do was give him a reassuring smile as if to say "We will make it out of this and we will go home..."

Sjin and I quickly exchanged glances and sprinted for the middle, I immediately opened a chest and grabbed everything in it:

A torch, A bow, a stone sword, two beds and an apple

I looked over my shoulder quickly to see Inthelittlewood bring a sword down on the small dwarfs head, he crumpled to the ground and I heard the canon. Xephos slashed at him cursing but missed, his eyes full of tears as he darted for the woods

I also saw Panda being stabbed through the chest by Lomadia, her and Nilesy staring into each other's eyes as she mouthed "Sorry" and ran away with the scientist. Nilesy stood there for a while and looked me in the eye as tears poured down his face, he stumbled for the nearby forest

Sjin wasn't as fast as I was and it was only seconds before I saw the dark mage stand before him with an iron sword raised above his head

"NOO!" I yelled slashing the mage's arm and stabbing him directly in the chest

I watched as the friend I used to know fell to the floor, a tear formed in one of his gleaming purple eyes and he mumbled "Z-Zoey...I l-love..." but it was too late

"BOOM!"

The canon shot and I yanked Sjin towards me as the red-head came running for Rythian, tears streaming down her face as she collapsed next to the dead man

I continued yanking Sjin away as he stared at the body, he finally snapped back into place, but as we ran for the gloomy forest I heard Zoey crying for Rythian just as Toby appeared behind her

"BOOM!"

"I'm sorry Rythian...but I can't let anything happen to Sjin" I told Rythian in my mind, even though I knew he wasn't listening..."I'm so sorry, Zoey, Panda, Honeydew"

We had already lost four people in the first minute

Sjin and I were perched in the tree as night descended, I looked up at the sky as I heard the loudest canon of all...the faces started to appear in the sky:

Honeydew

Panda

Rythian

Zoey

They were my friends

Sjin had formed a camouflage house type thing with room for two beds with the sheers he was given. I placed the beds next to each other and slowly fell into one, opening my arms for Sjin who collapsed into them while gently weeping

"S-Sips...Rythian wouldn't have died if I hadn't been so stupid, n-neither would have Zoey" he clutched my chest as I held him tighter

"Don't worry" I whispered into this ear gently "Rythian was trying to kill you, It was my fault they died, but I can't loose you Sjin. We are getting out of this alive" I kissed his head hoping to soothe him.

After an hour or so Sjin sat up and looked down at me, he probably thought I was asleep so he gently leaned down and whispered "Sips?"

"Yes Sjin?" I answered tenderly

"Can we um..." I knew what he wanted but it was quite amusing to see how he tried to put it

"Can we what?" I taunted and he slightly, and I mean very slightly, smiled

"You know what I mean" he actually smirked unzipping my space suit, I also sat up to make it easier and unzip his suit

Sjin gently pushed me back down and sat on top of me, he leaned down and started to tongue-kiss me and whisper some...things into my ear, ever so slowly making his way downwards.

Sun beamed into our little tree-fort and I woke up immediately, Sjin was curled up in my chest, almost forgetting where he was because of last night. It made me smile but I had pressure on me still, I had to protect Sjin before anything else, but I also had to keep myself alive

I heard loud rustling outside of our tree-fort and Sjin snapped his eyes open, about to open his mouth to yelp but I quickly put my hand over it

"Shh!" I commanded as Sjin obeyed, squeezing his eyes shut and pressing his head harder to my chest, as if to forget about the world by listening to my heart beat.

I peered out of the fort and saw Xephos in the tree opposite us, his shadowy eyes were puffy with red as tears stained his face. His staring into nothingness followed my gaze and our eyes met

"Oh no" I thought as he looked dead into my eyes, but he looked at me as if he was about to burst into tears; and I knew what he needed

"I'm sorry" I whispered. Even though he couldn't hear me, he nodded as a tear fell from his eye, he turned back and disappeared into the forest; but I knew he wouldn't come back and attack us...he wasn't evil like some people.

Authors Closing note:

Wasn't that horrible? I added the little Sjips fluff to lighten the mood a bit but uh...yeah
