DISTRICT 10: Trapped under the Maze:
Anselmo Pillar POV:
I look over at Lena, her blond hair is facing me. HEr forefinger hovering over the trigger of her crossbow. We had been under here for almost 3 days now, and it is starting to get to our heads. I know for a fact that i forgot what sunlight looks like.
"Lena, we have to find a way out of here." I say for about the hundredth time.
"DO you not get that there is no way out of here? We have been under this freaking maze for a while now, the Gamemakers haven't tried to save us! We have searched this cave from top to bottom at least 300 times since we landed in here! And in case you haven't noticed we're running out of food so if we dont find a way out soon we are going to die!" She screams at me as she stands up and flips her sun bleached hair over her right shoulder. We have been allies since Day 1 and now it's Day 9. We know that theres either 13 or 12 tributes left. We heard a few cannons while we were down here but we still don't know who was killed.
"Of course i know that Lena!" I say as i stand up and grab a large stick that i had been using as a torch before we landed down here. The relationship between me and Lena had been strained ever since we both kinda freaked out of each other. Really one of us should have killed the other, it would have gave the other one more time and food to try to find a way out.
"Then why don't you get off your lazy ass and start looking for an exit!" She says to me as she walks into the water and wades over to one of the walls on the cave, we had both searched there before and we both know we will find nothing.
This cave will surely be our death, at least one of deaths. I remember watching one Hunger Games where a alliance of 4 had got trapped in a hole and they all had to kill each other until only one survived, hopefully this wouldnt turn into that. I could see the Gamemakers now laughing their asses off at how we are stuck in this cave and placing bets on who will outlast the other.
I walk over to the opposite side of the cave of Lena and climb up as high as i can before my hands threaten to slip. the cool cold slippery rock if i could climb 10 more feet i would be able o escape theres a small hole just big enough for a human my size. It had been caused by a huge explosion, we didn't know what it was there was too much sound to make out anything but we definitely heard a cannon after the explosions.
"Attention Tributes, we have realized your state of dire need and have decided to help you in a way… Of course only one of you will be able to survive… Now don't grab your weapons just yet this will be a judgment of the viewers not your strength. You two tributes are the highlights of the games. The viewers will have exactly 1 hour to vote for their favorite tribute. The tribute with the most votes gets released from the Cave, while the other one… Will have a less fortunate fate…" Cheshire Lucifers voice rings out across the cave, his voice bouncing off the walls and echoing.
"Well doesn't this suck Anselmo? Guess the Favorite will get to live! Good luck on the other side Bitch." Lena says as she sits down on the rock and flips her hair as her ice blue eyes stare at me.
We will see whos the actual Favorite Lena, we will see when you die… Now lets wait… Lets wait….
DISTRICT 5 City:
Gavin Finley POV:
I sit on the tile my bow slung across my shoulder with Belladonna in my lap, my hands twirl with her hair as she plays with one of my arrows.
"Gavin, you know we both can't win right?" Belladonna says as she closes her eyes and puts the arrow down. My fingers freeze, her hair curled around them like snakes.
"Of course…" I say quietly as i look out the window facing the arena, The forest part of it had been destroyed and was no longer an option to hide or retreat to. So far we had been living off Sponsor gifts and fish. And after the attack with the mermaid women we never go down to the water alone.
"I think i can find a way for us to both live." Belladonna says as she gets off me and looks at me with her long black hair and porcelain white skin. She looks like a little china doll that had been in the Candy shop i had worked at. Oh that seems so long ago, if i win this i will never have to work there again. I could be rich forever. But it would have to be without Belladonna of course… I wouldn't be able to live…
"And how can we both win?" I ask casually knowing that its probably some made up idea that she has in her head.
"Have you ever heard of Delirium?"
DISTRICT 1 FOREST AREA:
Prodigy James POV:
I must admit, Patch is starting to scare me. Even though i am the higly esteemed carrer that i was trained to be but, Patch wants to kill every tribute he can gets his hands on. Sometimes it looks like he wants to kill us, even if we are in his alliance. It would be so much easiwer to just stab him in the back right now. HE ist even supposed to be in this group its Supposed to be District 1, 2 ,and 4 Tributes. Who the fuck invited a fucking District 8 tribute?
"Prodigy come here!" Autumn calls over to me from a distance, she is leaning over a small creek filling up her water. I slowly walk over glancing at Patch whose staring at the back of Bay as she stretches her legs after walking the 2 miles treck.
"Yeah?" I ask her as i sit down beside her.
She looks around at Bay and Patch before directing her attention to me.
"Listen, theres only 12 tributes left i say we make a break for it before its too late and Patch tries to kill us." Autumn says quietly as she grabs some water and puts it to her lips and drinks it. "What do you think?"
"I dont know… Maybe when there's 10 people left, 12 tributes right now leaves us 10 more to die, but if there are only 10 left theres only 8 left to die beside us." I say to her as i dip my hand in the water and splash my face. I look up at the arena, Somewhere out there are 8 other tributes their fate waiting to be decided. If it was my opinion i would hope that their fate will be them dying but i can't be to sure.
"Okay that sounds good." Autumn says to me as she stands up and walks towards Bay.
Only 12 left and 11 have to die…
CAPITOL, GAME MAKER TOWERS:
Clio Sachinero POV:
My heels click against the ground as i walk up the cool metal steps leading towards the roof of the building. I work for the Delirium but of course the Capital doesn't know that. If they did i would have a bullet in my skull right now.
I push the heavy metal door open and i feel the cool air sweep over me pushing my long white hair behind my head. Of course i didn't want my hair to be white or my eyes Silver, but my parents had it done to me when i was only 5 and i had no choice. But now my parents have mysteriously "Died" and i was left with the family fortune. At the young ripe age of 17.
I liked my parents, actually i loved them. Until they found out i was working for Delirium Then i had to kill them. There was no other way. If i did not our whole plan would have been exploited and possibly destroyed because of me.
"Hello Clio…" A cool male voice says. I look over and see who it is, it's Elmert Lampoana. HE was a victor from District 5 about 9 years ago, he won when he was 16 he was quite the impressive Tribute.
But since then he had joined Delirium and has killed over 30 important female Capitol officials when they have their "private sessions" with him.
"Hello Elmert, do you have the info?" I ask casually as i join him near the edge and look down at the ground. In the distance you can see a T.V showing the Games, and there was a kind of chart showing Anselmo and Lena's picture with a number beside it. I guess it was showing who would survive and who would die with their little voting thing.
"Please do i ever fail you? It was the Delirium who destroyed the forest right? I mean the Gamemakers wouldn't want to do it to their own pretty arena would they?" Elmert asks as he throws his head back and laughs. His strawberry blond hair falls backwards and his adam's apple protrudes from his neck. I remember one tribute saying that she was going to rip it out with her bare hands to kill Elmert if she had to, but then she was killed by Elmert and never had the chance.
"Well you're right about those things… And they plan to destroy the whole arena rescuing all but one of the tributes eventually. And that tribute will become victor and they will join us or die." I say as i grab my hair and twist it into a bun.
"Hey, Fame and Fortune for a cost am i right?" Elmert says as he looks at me.
You have no idea…
