Alyxandra Lumenos (D5F)
I'm the first one to get up (not including Ethan) and I run at him with a dagger. I know I should've thrown it, but hey! He was caught off guard and this is the chance to get even more sponsors. But as I'm about to slice his neck, he says, "Haven't we made a truce?"
"What truce?" In my moment of confusion, he twists around and slaps the dagger away with his metal hand. And he holds up the hand to my throat. Unfortunately for him, I'm quicker, and I jump to the top of the Cornucopia which I nearly slip on.
Probably everybody in Panem have their eyes on me now. I snatch the dagger off of the ground and point it at him threateningly. He whips out an axe and nearly slices my head off, but I duck.
He's obviously not a thrower. I nearly stab him, but he blocks with his stupid left hand. It always blocks. He grabs me by the collar and throws me as far as he can which isn't that far. I quickly recover.
But then, his left arm falls off. He doesn't seem to think this is abnormal and quickly tries choking me again. One second. Two seconds. Three seconds.
Ack! I can't breathe. Now it seems that I'm just doomed. And he grabs the dagger out of my hand and is about to shove it down my throat when. "Ow!"
Turk Radish falls out of his tree. Ethan lets go and lets me breathe and I attack him on the stub. He screams in pain, but kicks me in the stomach. Turk Radish is advancing towards us. He picks up the metal arm and lights a fire. Almost immediately, the circle of trees around the Cornucopia is burning.
He grins and Ethan is about to smash into his face with his left hand, but he realizes that he doesn't have it. Turk picks up a berry off of the ground and raises his eyebrows. He tosses it at the yawning mouth of Ethan. Ethan closes his mouth again and hits the berry away. It falls into the mouth of Turk Radish who turns into a shade of purple.
"Lunatic berry!" He shouts and falls to the ground. He takes some daggers and weakly throws them at Xander's direction. Immediately, he jumps up and sticks his tongue out at us. He blows a few raspberries and jumps around shouting, "Snickerdoodle!"
He runs to the back of Xander's ramp and he reaches the top somehow. Ethan and I stop fighting and watch as Turk hugs Xander ("Snickerdoodle!") and jumps down.
Xander reaches for a trident which isn't there. His eyes widen at his fate and pulls out of Turk's grip. Turk falls and hits the ground. "Ouchie!" Boom! Xander stumbles back and wipes sweat off of his face. Ugh, he landed safely. But at least it's one more step to victory.
Chance Bailey (D9M)
Hmm, Turk is dead. At least I can get home quicker. I pull out my scythe, the only weapon I have left and run outside of the Cornucopia. I can't miss this fight. A storm cloud appears over us. Oh no. Another storm? Where will we fight next? Or are the gamemakers so angry at us that we should all die?
But a tornado or giant lightning doesn't strike. Instead… "Food?" The cloud is raining food and various sodas. And for some reason, the fire Turk started seems to die out immediately.
Mashed potatoes cover Ethan's face and a ketchup bottle squirts a smiley face on the mashed potatoes. A hovercraft appears and carries Turk's body away in the midst of the storm. I can feel some liquid drip over my shoulders.
"Tributes!" The voice of Mr. Templesmith booms ominously, "From now on, every evening from six o'clock to midnight, there will be a temporary truce unless you wish for pain!"
A truce? Xander looks very confused about that and he mutters, "Then how will we know what time it is?" In answer, a digital clock lands on the Cornucopia which is covered in mashed potatoes (which cushions the fall).
Hmm, it's 4:58 in the evening. Very nice. "An hour and two minutes?" Ethan asks and then continues, "Too easy. I can win in that time."
Alyxandra shrugs and drops her knives to the ground. Xander quickly picks up his trident and nearly spears Alyxandra, but somehow, she blocks with a knife.
"I think we have a little interrupter here," Ethan says lazily, "I'll take this. You two can keep fighting to the death." I also notice that he has very large shoes.
Xander shrugs but keeps fighting with Alyxandra. Ethan walks towards me. "Ah, Ethan, just the one handed person I wanted to see." I say.
"I could beat you with no hands!" He snarls and to prove his point, he shoves his right hand into his pocket.
I charge at him with my scythe, but he sidesteps easily and runs into the Cornucopia's opening. "Beck!" I spit out and run into the area, but I trip over a box that wasn't there before.
Ethan has a foot on me triumphantly and his hand is still in his pocket. Then, without much effort, he pulls up his other leg and stands on me. I grunt a bit. "See, like I told you," he says in the same silky and lazy tone before. He lifts his foot up and taps it against his other leg. A silver colored blade emerges out of the bottom of it. He stomps on my head. "No hands." Boom!
Yay! Top three! Sorry about Chance… Oh well, people have to die anyway! So, to determine the top two, I will determine each one of their weaknesses and kill off the one that will die most easily and has the worst weaknesses. And the winner? I'll determine that randomly, so no flames or complaints, please! You may now put away your torches and pitchforks.
Deaths:
22. Turk Radish, went mad and weak by Lunatic Berry and fell off of ramp.
23. Chance Bailey, stabbed in the head with shoe blade by: Ethan Beck
