Patrick-
My blood rushes as the plate comes to a stop level to the ground and I get a look around. Everything is so low… wait no I am on a hill. The entire Cornucopia is on a hill with each of the twenty four tributes circling it with a yard about behind me for the edge of the hill. I get ready to win and look at all of the goodies that I need to get to so I can protect myself. Right in the middle of the opening is a bow and arrow sitting there calling to me and with that I have a target. Now I just need to wait for the time to run off and to get myself clam because right now I am freaking out.
Kenmeina-
The Arena is strange. With the hill I can't help but wonder why the Gamemakers did this. I mean the hill is cool but can't a tribute just walk a yard back and escape all of this? No career will chase them because the hill is pretty steep and a good height from the ground. And there are trees, I know that. But I should probably just focus on the Cornucopia. And right on a box is a jacket of knives. My jacket of knives, I need to get to those things first and hope for the best. I can't die so soon, I just won't.
Jasper-
I don't really know what to think of this Arena since even though the boots and jacket I have on are water proof there is no water to be soon. Actually even with this high up few I don't see a single source of water. I look at all of the other tributes and my eyes find Tara and she gives me one confident nod that I give back before I look myself at a sword. Not a mace but it is the closest weapon so I should pick that up and get to work. Show time.
Tara-
I look around separating my look from the Arena to nod once I notice Jasper is looking at me and I shift my glance to the Cornucopia. Everyone looks ready to go and I know that I need to run as fast as I can to that dagger sitting on a bag I know is a ten and it is sitting against the outside wall of the Cornucopia. Perfect. But where in the world is the water in this Arena? Oh well whatever I get from this will give me all the water I need.
Katie-
A rather strange Arena this is. I don't know wither to get some things or to make a run for it and steal something later. But even if I have speed I don't have strength like that District Two boy. I am quick so I will just have to steal something from the Careers when they aren't looking. I look behind me seeing the bottom of the hill maybe a hundred feet or so which actually isn't that much but either way when that timer hits zero I need to just step a few steeps backwards and get out of here.
Micro-
I can see my alliance members and I just pray to god Aschen is not blanking out because if he does he is a dead man. I look to my side and see Oz. Nice, he is right next to me. Then I see a plastic thing not too far away from where I stand and I remind myself to pick it up and maybe get that backpack with Oz and then maybe if Aschen is blanking out we can just push him down the hill. This is rather unique. And this Arena… it is different. And I even see a lot of rain gear in the Cornucopia. Guess that only means one thing.
Harold-
I need to hide. I need to run. I just need to do something and hope I don't die. I look around at the Arena again. Other than this hill part everything is pretty flat with trees everywhere and then to the right I see tall black metal frames. Like for a cemetery. But when I look past the gates I see graves and a building. This Arena has a pretend Cemetery? But why? Strange but I guess I will have to worry about that later. That is if I survive.
Ariel-
A trident, right there. It is mine. But I still feel nervous and hate how I know cameras are watching my every move. I guess I should get use to it because this is the Hunger Games after all and it is a TV show. I get ready to run and risk looking around trying to see where all this water is. I was hopeful when I saw the boots but I guess not. I can't help but think of Aalto watching me right now praying I will live. Well I won't die in the bloodbath. No this is time for action, no matter how much of a nervous wreck I am.

Oz-
I can't help but be thankful me and Micro are right next to each other. I mean Aschen will probably blank out and after me and Micro get some things at the Cornucopia we are going to probably push him down the hill or whatever. I look and follow Micro's line of vision of find him staring at a backpack. I know that we will be getting that bag and I think Micro's got that plastic thing. I look around seeing a loaf of bread near me and a flat plastic thing.
Ada-
Get the bag, get out of here, and run. And run for a while. I mean I need to do all those things. I need to get to the bag I see twenty feet, not even, away from me. I see so many things I wish I could get but I know in my head that all I can risk is getting that bag. It will supply me with some things and I rather just have a bag even if it is small then be dead. After all my father and my single friend are watching. So I get ready to run as soon as the gong sounds and the 60th Hunger Games have begun.

Aspen-
What in the world do I do? I don't even know but I just look around the Arena and see not any rivers. I hope I don't dehydrate because that would be awful. And there is some kind of cemetery and a lot of forest. Other than this one hill we are all on the rest of the Arena is rather flat except for the Cemetery part which is pretty bumpy. At least that is what I can see form here. And we all have a pretty good view of the Arena right now. Being on a hill and all.
Dawn-
Isaac is all the way on the opposite side of the Arena. Call my codependent but I actually felt a lot better knowing I have someone to talk to because sadly I think if I didn't then I might start talking to myself. Either way now what? I look at him and then he gestures his head jerking it to the left and I nod understanding. I look to the Cornucopia and see a small bag. It was a rather small bag and not even as big as most and that is why it is perfect. Because no one will go for because of how tiny it is, but I am going to. And maybe I can figure out why there is not any water in sight in this Arena.
Isaac-
I don't know exactly what to do but I see a small hatchet sitting on a backpack and know that those are the things I need. I guess I might leave the weapon if someone challenges me for it but I just need to get ready to run and meet up Dawn so we can get the hell off this cliff and into the forest where I can't even see water. It makes me worried when it comes to the rain proof clothing just because it is hot right now so where does the water come in?
Boxxy-
I see one backpack. It isn't a real bag even just one you would have the strap over your shoulder and a small bag that could hold anything. But there are only so many bags and everyone has their eyes on bags so I know this bag is better than nothing. And since it is tiny it is closer to me and one of the out skirting objects along with near me a large plastic thing that I guess would be useful. It would keep me dry in rain as long as it is pouring so I guess it will do. With that I look at the time and know that that minute is quickly disappearing.
Farro-
I am going to die here aren't I? I know I won't win but something suddenly inside me wants to not just go out with the blood of another human being on my hands but saving someone. I guess I just want everything to not end like it was nothing but for people to remember me. I will make them remember me.
Beth-
I see the Arena and all the people around me and I know I should probably get a bag. Nothing big but at least something. So with the clock almost half way down to that one that will signal I can start running I focus on a backpack near enough to me and I don't take time to see who is around me and just focus on the bag and the clock ticking down.
Pieter-
I should probably just get somewhere and hide. I know that if I get something then I will be killed but someone will kill me if I just end up standing here so I need so kind of plan so I have an idea what to do. And I see the Cornucopia staring at it before a tiny idea pops into my head so I put on a strong face for my family watching me and then get ready to run when that minute runs out.
Adriella-
It felt like just yesterday I was back home in District Nine but now everything is ticking down to the moment I could very well die. That scares me. But I know I need weapons and supplies to make it through this hell that well follow the Bloodbath. And looking around I see a few people around me but I don't even process them well enough to see who. So I just take in a deep breath trying to calm down before I put on a serious face and move my body to get running the second I can. I just hope I make it out of this alive.
Wolff-
I can see the girl form nine near me and I keep on searching for Coraline until I find her three tributes down and when I look to her for a moment here eyes connect to mine and my heart beats even faster knowing that this really is it. That this is all really going to happen and I need to get myself and Coral out of this alive. I see a bag near me and look my eyes on it though I see some other people looking at it too. Either way the thought of my family watching me die so quickly into this breaks my heart. And I won't let it happen.

Coraline-
I see Wolff and I know he is looking towards that bag. I don't want to risk getting another bag but I see a few scattered things around me and know that I will pick those things up and that is what I have on my mind. I don't focus on anything else because I know if I think too much of the Arena, the engagement scandal, or my family I won't be able to focus. Those things are for later and this Arena doesn't seem too killer so I guess I am lucky. And with most of the minute gone I know soon I will be running and I am not going down just yet.

Branch-
I know this is going to go fine. I mean the Arena doesn't even have anything that seems to kill off tributes and I am a career! I see all the tributes and though all of them are ready to run I can tell some of them have fear stuck in their eyes as they watch that clock ticking down. I don't even need to get to a weapon though. That is why using my fists is so lovely. And for once I get to let my anger out; for once I can fight instead of just working in the fields.
Rosaline-
I run my fingers through my hair and when I see everyone's eyes around me locked one the Cornucopia I know I can't get involved. I see a small pack of dried food and I won't risk anything else. I rather be alive and not with a weapon then dead with a bow in my hand. There is even a bow and arrow in my eye sights but I sigh once realizing I just need to bend down a little bit before running down the steep hill. And best of all? There are trees. And trees mean climbing. I guess the odds are in my favor right now.
Aschen-
I focus on the trees. Not any water or clouds in sight. What in the world are these water proof clothing for? I don't get it but I guess the Gamemakers must have something up their sleeves. And there is Oz and Micro not too far away and I know that I should probably meet with them but I just look up into the sky the soft hum of the clock ticking down just background noise as I am lost in the blue sky of this Arena.
Kami-
I need weapons. I need that bag and the tent and all of the things I could use. Maybe I will just get one thing but I won't get out of this thing empty handed. That would be awful and for some reason my song got a bad reaction so I just think that whatever happens I need to prove I am strong and a true contender so I won't get out of this empty handed so I just need to move quickly and fast so that I get some survival skills.

So there it is! Anyway next is the bloodbath and most of the p.o.v.'s will be from the people who die with a few exceptions. So if you see your character has no part just know if they didn't have a part then they are alive. Also I figure I will just tell you what the Arena is. After all I think you have waited long enough. But the characters probably won't figure this out to later. I will probably post the bloodbath later tonight.
In the center of the Arena is a steep hill pretty equally leveled with the trees that surrounding the circle. Though there are twenty or so feet between the bottom of the hill and the forest. Though it is mostly forest as you read there is at one part tall old fashioned like black metal gates with a cemetery. No there are no real dead bodies I just thought it would be interesting and it even has one of those buildings that lead underground with a lot of caskets (Forgot the name) other than the hill and cemetery area, which are the only none leveled part, and of course some other parts but nothing too huge the Arena is rather flat with some buildings and small structures scattered in the forest almost like ruins. Finally the part that makes it more, what I say interesting. Is the fact that from midnight to seven in the morning it is very cold and can make for some miserable sleeping. Then at seven the heat is turned up to a hot sunny and cloudless day and then finally when it turns for the entire rest of the day it is a down pour. At some points it might rain less and other points it might have thunder and lightning. Though rain is guaranteed from four to nine after then the rain does slow down most of the time to a drizzling. Most of the time that is. So I know it isn't super awesome and creative like the clock Arena in C.F. but I think the bipolar weather will be exciting but probably a little confusing at first.
