(Flora Chims,12,Female,Demeter)
I sit up. Was that what I just thought I heard? I think it was. I think it's the careers.
Sure enough they come bounding through the woods. The Zeus boy isn't there so he must be at the cornucopia. I freeze,have they spotted me? No they haven't.
That's good because i'll have time to run. I kick off the ground and start sprinting towards a big tree that I could climb. I turn around,great,they've noticed me.
They all have their weapons out ready to attack.I finally get the trunk of the tree and start scrambling up it.
By the time the careers get there i'm already like 20 feet in the air. What happens next takes me completely by surprise. I see two eyes locked with mine.
I gasp and scramble along the branch a little bit. Now I can tell it's the girl from Dionysus and she's just staring at me. The careers are yelling insults at me, I
don't think they've noticed the girl yet. I see something gleam in the morning sun and my heart stops. It's a dagger.
She raises it above her head and I scream at the top of my lungs. The careers stop insulting me and notice the Dionysus girl about to stab me. What I do
next will haunt me for what could be my very short life. I kick her in the stomach. She screams as she topples backwards out of the tree and tumbles too the ground.
I cringe as she hits the ground with a sickening thump.
BOOM
I can't believe I just killed someone. The careers look angry that they didn't get to kill her. Well now I guess they get to kill me. I notice the girl
from Aphrodite has a bow and arrow.
Great...just great.
She aims and shoots at me. I flatten myself the trunk as the arrow buries itself in the branch above me. If I hadn't moved it would've been buried in my head.
I pull out the arrow and snap it in half.
I flutter my eyelashes cutely and look at the arrow "Haha now you get 2!" I giggle.
If they want to kill me I may as well mock them.
The Aphrodite girl gets angry "Whatever we'll just wait till morning. She has to come down for food,eventually".
My heart sinks. They're right. I have to come down for food.
Looks like i'm going to be in this tree a loooong time.
(Jake Michael,17,Male,Poseidon)
Riley,Coraline and myself sit around the fire,cooking fox. Riley managed to kill a bird as well but we're saving it for later.
Coraline looks up at me "I just can't stop wondering who that cannon was for." I laugh "Jeez Coraline, you really want to know who died don't you?"
She looks at me,slightly offended "I only want to know who's our other competiton.
Riley stands up "I'm going to spy on the career's camp and maybe take some of their stuff."
I stand up "No you went there yesterday, I'll go" There is no way she's going again,it's too dangerous.
She rolls her eyes "You don't have be worried. It's sweet you wanna protect me but I can handle myself."
I breath out "Ok but BE CAREFUL"
She kisses me on the cheek "I'll be back soon"
I don't want her to go but i'll let her go today.
She's NOT going tomorrow though.
(Riley Stanford,16,Zeus,Female)
Jake is being so cute.
As I hike throught the swamp I realise that i'm already half way through the games. The cannon earlier today signalled the 12th death as it was the first cannon after
the bloodbath and there were 11 casualties.
All this thinking is hurting my brain.
I think the cannon was maybe one of the Dionysus tributes or the Demeter girl. I don't think the careers would lose someone yet and I don't think Isabelle Smith from
Hera is going to die too soon. She seemed like a potential threat.
It must suck having to represent Hera when your parent isn't even Hera.
This year was Hera's first year in the games and she lost her male,who was a son of Hecate in the bloodbath but she still has Isabelle, who is also a child of Hecate.
I stop walking as I can see the cornucopia.
I hide in the line of trees.
My brother Dominick is the only one there so all the others must be out hunting. Maybe they were the reason the cannon went off earlier today.
I look around at the cornucopia, maybe Dominick will let me take some supplies.
I immediantly notice somethings wrong. Maybe it's just a change in the air form but I see something move behind Dominick.
That's when I see Isabelle Smith from Hera,the girl I was JUST thinking about appear behind him.
Damn Hecate powers,she was invisible. I'm glad the gamemakers turned off our powers until the cannons for the bloodbath went off otherwise she probably would've killed
everyone with magic.
I notice her pull out something.
A knife.
I stumble out of the swamp and yell "Dominick behind you!"
He turns around just as Isabelle plunges her knife into the side of his throat.
Blood spurts out of his neck as she rips it out. Anger and grief shoot through me.
She just killed my brother.
The brother I used to roast smores with and used to sing camp songs with.
A cannon go off signaling Dominick's death but I don't care because Isabelle just pissed off the wrong tribute.
(Isabelle Smith,18,Female,Hera [Hecate])
I wipe the blood of the Zeus boy from my knife. Now there's only 11 tributes.
Hopefully a sponsor sees I can kill. Unforunately the potential sponsors aren't the only ones that saw. Riley about 20 metres in front of me,is panting with anger.
I begin to panic. I can't kill her, there's no way. She's too strong PLUS she's a daughter of Zeus.
So I do the only logic thing to do.
Run.
I sprint too the bit of the swamp where I came from but have to duck because electricty shoots at me.
Fine,if she want's to play that way i'll play.
I ignite my hand shoot a ball of falmes at her direction.
I hear her scream and know i've hit my target.
I wait for a cannon but it doesn't go off.
I risk turning around and see her bodysuit leg is in flames. I push myself to run faster and finally I dissapear into the forest.
(Coraline Shade,13,Female,Poseidon)
Jake paces around the fire muttering "Come on Riley,come here so I know your not dead."
We heard a cannon a couple of seconds ago and one MIGHT of been Riley. I highly doubt it though,she's too strong.
It's around lunch time and Jake said we have to wait until Riley comes back.
I'm fine with waiting because she's been so nice to me but there's a possibility she IS dead and that means we're not going to find out until the fallen.
Jake's pacing kind of gets annoying so I say "Jake maybe we should look for her,we need a new camping spot anyway."
He looks at me for a second before nodding his head "Ok let's go"
So we pack up our stuff and set off.
Jake carries Riley's bag because she didn't take it with her.
We'veonly been walking for about half an hour when we find Riley. Her leg is seriously burnt and she looks exhausted.
We help her sit down and she explains to us what happened.
Dominick being stabbed in the neck and Isabelle Smith from Hera shooting a fireball at her leg.
We decide to take refuge here because Riley can't walk plus it's not a bad spot.
(Kennedy Engler,17,Female,Ares)
I walk back with the careers after a long and dissapointing day.
The only kill that we know was the one made by the little Demeter girl when she kicked Nikki Vanelle,the girl from Dionysus,out of the tree.
Another cannon went off and I think it might be the Dionysus boy.
I just hope it's not Riley because I want to be drain her life from her and watch her die.
As I step into the field with the other careers I immediatley notice that Domonick is gone.
He was the cannon.
We're all shocked but quickly recover because sadness isn't something that you should feel in the games.
Luckily no tributes came and stole any supplies. I'm also pretty happy that Riley isn't dead yet.
She won't be dead until I get my hands on her.
I put my hands to my face.
It's still pretty bruised from when the Dionysus boy decided to save his sister (Who ended up dying anyway) and beat me up.
I guess he's another person i'll have to kill.
Him and Riley won't know what's hit'em
(Michelle Aswan,13,Female,Artemis)
I'm surprised Dominick died for he was quite strong.
I wonder who killed him.
It's been a couple of hours since we discovered Dominick's passing and we wait for the fallen.
We'e pretty sure we only heard 2 cannons but we might of missed one when we were chasing the boy from Dionysus.
I settle down in my sleeping bag after having a feast of beef jerky and wait for the fallen.
I listen to the other careers talk while I wait.
It's so scary to know that in about 3 weeks,23 of us will be dead and I could be one of them.
Finally the fallen comes on.
First to appear is Dominick and then the girl from Dionysus.
There were only 2 faces so we didn't miss any cannons which is good.
I'm absolutely exhausted from hunting today so I shut my eyes and go to sleep.
I wonder who's taking first and second watch tonight?
I know i'm not doing it until tomorrow night.
Goodnight
So I hoped you liked it.
