CHAPTER 20: The Feast

I am so so so so so so so so sorry for not updating in a long long long long long time. I will get the chapters out faster don't worry. I plan on a few killings today. Hehehe! Also if you are still reading please leave a comment because I want to know how many people are still reading. It would help me a lot to know how many of you are still reading. Just review something like "I'm still reading". Please do it don't just be lazy.

"Hey Kavie", Seamus exclaims. "I got some more firewood". He drops the wood and they make a loud noise. They both freeze. They wait but nothing comes. Kavie punches Seamus in the arm. "YOU IDIOT", she whisper screams. "You can't make that much noise out here". "Sorry", he says. "It's ok", she says. They gather it all and stack it in the corner. They refill there packs with more food and water. They sort out there supplies then start to quietly start to whisper. Then Seamus's eyes open wide as he stares blankly outside the tree. "What is it", Kavie giggles happily.

Then her eyes show the same shock as she sees the careers stalk there tree. The careers know where they are and Kavie and Seamus know it. "What are we going to do", Kavie whispers. "We have to go", Seamus says. They quickly gather everything they can fit in there packs. "Kavie", Seamus says. "You have to go, I'll distract them but you have to run", he says desperately. "But what about you", she says. "We both won't make it out of this and you'll have a better chance at winning this than I do". They argue over it until finally Seamus says "KAVIE GET OVER IT I WONT BE COMING BACK NOW RUN".

THUNK! There is a blood chilling scream as Ludmila's trident pierces Seamus's face and pins it to the tree. The careers are climbing up the tree and Ludmila stands farther away. Kavie grabs Seamus's pack not accepting what has just happened until the cannon goes off. She feels enraged and the hatred boiling up in her face. She removes the trident then stands on a branch. The careers are about ten branches below steadily climbing.

Kavie holds out the trident spokes down and positions her arm. Then she drops the trident and it hits Quin just as she was looking up. Her limp body falls and hits Rupert and Damon on the way down causing them to fall. She looks back to Seamus and sheds a single tear as she grabs all the meat she can carry then she runs along the strong branches away from the confused Careers.

"WHAT THE FUCK HIT ME", Rupert yells losing his childish tone. "Owwww", Damon groans. "Quin" he says pointing. "Yay my trident I really didn't want to climb all the way up there", Ludmila says happily skipping over and removing it from Quin. They grab her pack and don't even look back at her when they leave. They have no sympathy.

(Setting Change) A short man with curly blond hair steps forward into a room with 24 televisions viewing each tribute. 15 Have gone black and 9 still show tributes and what they are doing. The man sits in a chair and pulls out a crumpled piece of paper. The blue walls cause a happy vibe. The man unfolds the paper and pulls a microphone close to his mouth. He reaches down to the big red button and pushes it. Suddenly he is speaking.

"Congratulations to the nine of you that remain". All of the tributes look to the sky and listen for the man's voice. "Five districts and nine tributes remain". "I would like to congratulate each and every one of you for making it this far". "Sadly only one can win". "Each of you seem to be relatively well off". "But this will just cause these games to go on longer". "You are all safe in your burrows and close to your homes". "So for our entertainment the gamemakers have decided to take you out of your elements and put you into a new one". "You will have five minutes to prepare for what is to come". "Gather your things and prepare for what is to come". "Good luck". Silence…

The tributes hurriedly gather there things and grab whatever food they can manage to get once they are done. Suddenly the ground is taken out from under all of them and they are all falling down sliding on a slide. They all hit the ground with a thud. They are each encased in glass rooms in a circle. There is a wide expanse that has a circle with a diameter of 100m. There rooms are around the outside of this circle. The area is entirely white and there is no way for them to leave their rooms.

The man's voice sounds again. "Welcome all, to the battle arena". "There will be three battles". "The tributes competing will be chosen at random". "Then those tributes will battle to death in front of the other tributes". "But first they will choose from a dial for their weapons and armour". "You may not use your own items only what you gain by spinning". "We have watched you in your terrains and we know your weak spots". "We plan to use them, good luck".

Some of the tributes start to squirm. "Now let's spin for our tributes". A giant dial appears on the gleaming white floor. It starts to spin until it slows. Finally it stops. All of the tributes look to the girl standing at the base of the arrow. Oracle swallows hard then steps forward out of her glass box through a door which has just appeared then disappeared once she was through. "Congratulations Oracle you are our first tribute. Please spin the dial. Suddenly a dial is floating in front of her. She spins it until it finally she stops. She clicks the screen and a second dial has shown up finally she clicks again. A pedestal appears in front of her.

She grabs a spiked whip and a breastplate. She pulls it on over her long brown hair. Her green eyes show fear she stands ready for her opponent waiting. The dial on the floor appears again as the one in front of Oracle disappears. It spins until finally it lands on Kavie. She walks out and observes all of the tributes. All of them seem to have ripped there initial Clothes. People like Carson have entirely lost their sweaters. But some still have them on. But there are also people like Adri who don't have a single scratch. She picks from a dial. She seems confused as what to pick because she is not very good with many.

Then she smirks and chooses a weapon. Then she chooses the armour. A pedestal rises up and she grabs hold of a bow and arrows with some wire and metal shoulder pad's that also protect her neck and arms but not her torso. She pulls it over her black hair and square glasses as her eyes shine blue. Only one of them will live. "You have one minute to prepare", the man says. Oracle fixes her armour and Kavie seems to be hard at work tying knots.

"When the buzzer goes we will be changing the terrain", says the man. Finally Kavie stand up and Oracle stand straight. Oracle positions herself to run and Kavie loads an arrow. Then the buzzer goes. Suddenly as Oracle takes off the ground other than a circle to stand on turns to water and she falls face first into it. Kavie aims right at the roof. She shoots the center and suddenly there is a buzz of electricity. Oracle swims for Kavie but she doesn't care. Kavie loads another arrow and aims right at Oracle. Oracle swims for her life. Kavie releases the bowstring as it propels the arrow forward. The arrow clearly misses Oracle and she is momentarily relieved.

Then the arrow hits the water. The electricity travel's through the arrow in the roof. Down the metal wire and into the water. Electricity jumps all over the water's surface and right through Oracle. Oracle floats to the surface and is still. A canon goes off and the water turns to ground. "Congratulations Kavie you have won the first battle". "You now have thirty seconds to gather what you can from Oracle's compartment and her body before we take it away". Kavie runs to the girl's body and rips the armour off her. Then she runs to the stall and grabs a berry pouch, a lighter and some berries until the items she has not grabbed disappear and a claw grabs Oracle. "Please return to your compartment Kavie", says the man. Kavie slowly returns to her stall. "Now time for the second battle". The dial spins until it stops on Samuel. He picks 6 daggers and a shield. Then it spins to Damon who smiles. Going through the choices he laughs and says, "sure why not". Then he doesn't even bother to spin the armour dial. His pedestal pops up and sitting on it is a metal hop with purple and red lines along the side. It is sharpened around the edges. It looks like a hula hoop crossed with a sword.

"I can beat you just with this", he says. They position themselves to run. The buzzer goes and right away rocks pop up all over the ground. Damon cockily spins the hoop on his wrist as Samuel dives behind a rock. Damon walks right up to it spinning the hoop on his waist. He jumps over the rock and lands on the shield over Samuel's face. Samuel runs to a new side of the area as Damon chases him. Damon grabs the hoop by the handle and slashes at Samuel. Samuel covers himself behind the shield that can easily cover his entire body.

Damon walks forward continuously beating the shield. Finally Samuel hits a wall. He hides behind the shield. Behind the glass wall he can see Rupert laughing. Hate bubbles up in Samuel's face and he lunges forward knocking Damon backwards. Damon looks furious. Samuel stands up full of confidence. He pulls the shield off his arm and throws it at Damon. It hits him square across the face. The Samuel throws a knife at him. Damon holds the hop in front of him and it wizzes through hitting him in the chest then another in his head. The cannon booms and Samuel runs to his body and stabs it continuously with all six knives. Then he grabs them all and walks to Damon's stall.

He grabs his backpack and a few other items from the stall like food water and things he might find useful. Then he walks back to his own stall with the items resting in his shield. "Now time for the third battle", says the man. The dial spins and spins until it lands on Carson. Carson choses two battle axes and a breastplate.

The dial spins and spins for an unnaturally long time until finally it slows and lands on Rupert. Rupert smirks then choses a spear and pointed armguards. They stand there waiting then the buzzer sounds. The ground turns to grass and they both run at each other until suddenly Rupert slam's the pointed part of his spear into the ground. He jumps, pushes of the top of it, does a flip, and then stabs Carson's heart with his pointed armguards. The cannon boom's instantly. Rupert takes the breastplate axes and backpack from Carson. He returns to his stall. "Congratulations to the 6 of you that remain", the man says. "Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favour". The tributes are taken back to where they were before and the games continue. A single gift floats down to someone's feet once they surface. Adri picks up the silver package and merrily eats a batch of warm cookies that came wrapped in a blanket in the moonlight.

Woosh! Bill and Bell sit at the table awestruck at what has just happened. They both start rambling on until Bell walks to the board. Carson, Seamus, Quin, Oracle, and Damon's pictures go black and white and only six remain colored. "Well few remain", Bill says. "Who will win"? "Tune in tomorrow", says Bell, "and may the odds be ever in your favour".
