so hope you have fun reading this story
Chapter 2
The commentator's voice boomed 10, 9, 8, why the countdown lasted so long, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 the 24 tributes shot out of their positions launching into cornucopia.
"Prak from District 5 throws himself at Colin the security robot. They tumbled onto the floor rolling around. Suddenly the glamorous Fenchurch, who appears to have gained a bow, shoots an arrow straight through Prak and into Colin! This is getting nasty! And there she goes darting back into the battle field."
Adam Douglas explains.
"So that's one career down! Already! And here we have Prostetnic Vogan Jelts is fighting our fur hated friend Mr Posser, who appears to been equipped with an axe! Posser swips at Jelts, swinging the axe straight at his head. Jelts parries and comes back up to throw Posser of his feet. Now standing over him, Jelts kills Posser in one clean sweep of his sword, collects the axe and continues on his war rampage!
"The daring tribute Gail seems to be slowly creeping up to the middle of Cornucopia, after many of the tributes have fled from the careers. A spear lands on the ground beside her and, wow, it looks like she has been caught by Zarniwoop! Gail wrenches spear free and charges boldly at him. Zarniwoop deflects the blow with a shield and pulls out his dagger. And just as Gail raises his spear to launch a death blow Vroomfondel dives in the way! Vroomfondal has been fleeing from Thor's double edged axe! But he has jumped back into another battle. Gail finds that his spear has been thrust into Vroomfondel's flank, not at Zarniwoop.
"In desperation to get a new weapon, Gail flees Cornucopia. Cornucopia is its typical blood bath, as careers scavenge for items while those who have survived are far into the forest by now. The sky tonight will show us who's dead…"
We (my family and I) waited, huddled around that small TV, watching till night fell. Waiting to see who would be dead. Who would be alive. Night came.
"And here have the daily death stats, No-one from District 1. No-one from District 2. District 3- nada. Colin, the security robot from District 4. From District 5- Prak. From District 6 Loonquawl and Phouchg. No-one from District 7, Benjy and Frankie from District 8. Vroomfondel and Majikthise from District 9. Mr Posser and Oolon Colluphid have both died from District 10, and no-one from District 11 or 12.
"Handing it over to Suzanne and Colin for the betting and Sponsors information:"
"Thank-you, Adam. So Sue, who looks strong at this stage in the game."
"Well it's hard to tell Colin, but I'd say Jelts is looking tough, having killed two player all on his own."
"I know what you're saying, but what about Fenchurch? Taking out two tributes with one arrow."
"It's hard to tell Colin and, as we expected, an alliance between Fenchurch, Zaphod, Thor, Zarniwoop, and Jelts has been formed."
"But, Sue, what are your opinions on Colins death."
"Yes, a career being killed this early on is a surprise. I think it may have been because he is a security robot. But careers aside, lets take a look at the other contestants. Gail fled into the woods with no weapons, and may die without sponsors or luck. Also Dish of the Day, despite running around Cornucopia shouting comments like 'you know I taste amazing with apple sauce, although I suggest a honey glaze would work' and requesting to be eaten, does not have a weapon."
"Yes, it was very odd, but it appears the tributes ignored him throughout the day. Perhaps he has a strategy to survive."
"But weaponless tributes aside, what do you think of Ford? He managed to get into the centre of Cornucopia, and then flee straight into the forest. Salvaging a few supplies."
"True, but I think Tricia is a strong contender as she managed to take out Phouchg, and then made to the forest with some supplies."
"True, true, so let's think about those tributes who don't stand much of a chance. How about Arthur, who escaped Cornucopia with just a dagger."
"But then there's Marvin who made out with a spear and no food supplies."
"Yes, but it'll be who finds water that'll survive the next stage of the games."
"With no clear victors prevailing, it's still all to play for."
"So here is all the alive tributes in District order:
Fenchurch
Thor
Zarniwoop
Ford
Jelts
The Ruler of the Universe
Arthur
Trillian
Tricia
Gail
Dish of the Day
And Marvin!
So those are your living tributes people. Place bets, and sponsor them to provide them with weapons, equipment, medicine and food! And remember: May the Odds be Ever in your Favour."
"This is Sue and Collin, Hunger Games News. Over to you Adam."
please feel some pity for your tribute and sponsor them in the reviews
