A Boy from 10
60 Seconds...
Slowly, with a hiss, the platform underneath me reaches the top.
My eyes blink in frustration at the suns ray.
I survey the area.
A forest.
A tiny forest that will soon be filled with bloodthirsty teenagers, working on instinct, whose only quench would be to kill me.
40 Seconds...
I feel the terrifying glares upon me, like I'm a chicken leg.
I hear the sobs of the youngest of us, realising their immediate death.
Twelve is way to young a age to die. If I could save them I would.
20 Seconds...
I see the stare of a beautiful blond girl with sparkling, green eyes.
She's from 4, by the look of her.
Most likely a career.
Hoping to kill me.
She looks away, almost ashamed.
Maybe she is different...
10 Seconds...
I feel we could have been friends in another world.
Perhaps more...
5 Seconds...
What should I do?
Run for the cornocopia?
Escape?
I guess this is what happens when you don't have a mentor?
I set of at a rapid speed up into the forest seeking a asylum. As, I run I turn around to check for pursuers. To my surprise there is none. But, to my horror, half of the tributes have run into the bloodbath. What are they doing? They must know this is slaughter. Clearly the only survivors will be the careers? I see a tiny twelve year old run towards me. I see the fear in her face and hear the fear in her pulsating heart. I must save her.
As, I beckon to her from behind a tree, I see the district 1 boy tribute run behind her with a bloody axe. I scream " Run" but she is to slow.
The small girl, as delicate as a flower, as cute as a puppy and as young as my sister, falls to the ground with a gasp and with a axe sticking out her side, blurting out blood. I will never forget the look in her eyes of pure horror. Her scream echoes in my skull. Her killer retrieves his axe with a cheer. I am sickened. Slowly, I step forwards. He, in turn turns his face to me with a glint in his eye, like a child being handed food in my district.
AU: I might upload a second chapter later.
Anyway, thanks for reading my second fanfiction :D
