Chapter 12: Hunger games

(Brittany's pov)

Hunger games.

Out of all of the possible trials and events, it had to be the hunger games.

MY "show" (as I had started to call it) was focused on Jason once again. In my opinion he was doing fairly well. He had on iron sword and armor, along with some back-up weapons. He started looking for some food in every chest he could find. I prayed he would be alright. I've heard he's been doing well in all of his other trials but it was in bits and pieces.

I had no idea where Ty was and I didn't see any sign of life of any kind of evidence that Adam was there in general. Time in my seclusion has gone uncounted, any grasp of reality escapes that second it came. I continuously thought that I would wake up in my fiancé's arms and everything would be alright.

Although, every time I closed my eyes…no such thing happened. It was if you were stuck in a paradox but you were watching everything in third person. I felt my life slowly draining away. I was tired, hungry and on the verge of depression. I miss being with my family. Granted, it was small and comprised of only 3-4 people but…everyone counts.

Maybe this was what Brine felt like without the trio. He lost his brother and sons…if I remember correctly he also lost his lover but do they count as family? Do I count Jason as my family? Do I? He's my fiancé… this is confusing.

A small squeak of some kind latch opening startled me, tearing me away from the screen as Jadon attacked a player that was playing in the server they were in. What followed the squeak put me more on edge. A grunt followed by a thump assured me that someone was now in the same room as I. I got on my knees and surveyed my surroundings. The small lighting that the room naturally had did nothing to help.

"Hello?!" I called out with my core throat. No food or water for God knows how long…I'm surprised I lasted this long.

"YOU!" Brine's voice rang out. I cringed at the sound. When you hear nothi8ng but the sound of the screen for a while, you grow accustomed to silence.

I sighed and turned back to the screen. "Hello Brine, it's good to see you."

"Shut up!" This is all your fault!" Brine yelled at me, looking more infuriated than anything.

I looked back at him with a raised eyebrow. "My fault? What's my fault?"

"YOU!" He pointed a finger at me. "It's your fault that they're acting this way! If it wasn't for you they would be winning every challenge that came their way!"

"They're still human…" I whispered. 'He's trying to pick a fight with me but I don't see the point…on top of that I don't have any energy…' "Besides Jason is winning everything and Ty seems to be doing very well. I miss Adam though."

"Those aren't their names! I heard what they said to you, you managed to bring down the amount of power that Skybrine had and managed to turn WitherMU away on his principles!" Brine fumed.

My fear started rising, crawling up my throat. "I don't understand Brine. I didn't do anything…most of the things that happened in my life happened by coincidence."

Brine straightened himself out, glaring at me while looking down at the same time. "I see…" 'I doubt that you do…' "But if you aren't in the equation then there's nothing to stop my master plan. I will have my family back!"

"Why can't you be a part in ours? That way my family doesn't have to be destroyed…"

"Shut up! You don't know what you speak of woman! Your family…the one that you have…..you aren't worthy of them! You or your pathetic human friends!"

'He's still trying to pick a fight!' "I know Brine and I love them but my friends are only pathetic in comparison to you guys." I looked back at the ground trying to ignore the kill Jason had just achieved on the screen and trying to tune out Brine.

"You need to go…" Brine muttered.

I looked back at him. "What? You mean I get to leave?"

A slightly malicious smirk appeared on his face. "Yes…yes dear you get to leave…permanently."

"What do you mean? I'm leaving with my friends and family right?" I sat on my knees.

"No…I'm afraid that in order for you and your girlfriends to leave, I'm going to have to break the hearts of my sons and brother."

"What are you talking about?" I felt my inner soul drop.

"I'm saying that I have to get rid of you but they have to know."

I think I got the idea after the many times he said 'I have to get rid of you'/ "But what about Alesa?! If Adam loses both of us or if he's even alive still, he'll be crushed. And don't harm my sister Starly! You can hurt me but don't hurt them!"

"I'll spare your friend Aleasa-a-" 'Not how you pronounce it!' "-but are you really sisters with that star girl?"

"Does it matter? Don't hurt her!" I pleaded.

"I'm already sparing one…but who are you to tell me what to do?"! He pulled out a blunt object. I couldn't tell what it was because of the lighting but the fact that he had something put me in panic mode.

'AWWW CRAP!...I think I'm screwed!' "Brine, whatever you're going to do, please thoroughly think it though!"

A smug like smirk appeared on his face. "I already have…and when you're finally gone…I'll get rid of your cheesy influence and more!"

'Cheesy influence?' "Brine I don't want to die…" I felt tears prink my eyes.

"Oh…you won't die…at least not yet. If I killed you now then questions will be asked and I can't have that. No, I'll have them think you're dead…I've said too much."

I let some tears go as he rose whatever blunt object he had over his head. "Don't worry it's going to hurt a bit…"

'It's going to hurt a lot?' "It's going to hurt a lot!" Brine swung the bottle toward me. 'Typical!'

The force of the bottle against my skull was enough to knock me out and cause some internal bleeding but before I was fully out of it, Brine hit me again for good measure.
