Topaz's POV
Weee!
That's the first thing that comes to my head when I finally reach the tip of the peak. It doesn't take many turns and hills to remind that: Oh wait. Yeah this place is kinda old. Gotta jump off. But right before I unbuckle myself I realize that I'm terrible at balance. I constantly have to move. I could just slip off, and undo my clasp simultaneously. But there's a grazing field below. Ah, what the heck. I come from Eleven, I know crops.
Still in the thinking of my decision I see Fly from Nine down there. She must've found a way in the fields without the roller coaster. At least Nix and I will be able to find an easy way in and out of there… Nix. He's so mean. What kind of ally tells their district partner to kill themselves? Perhaps he didn't really mean in it? Whatever, I don't have time to think about that now.
Right behind her is a smaller Career tribute. Bella, I think. She's pretty fast, only a couple of feet behind Fly, a hand full of knives. From what I've seen of Bella, she's bloodthirsty, and she might not think twice about killing her prey.
Can't get distracted. On the count of three, I'll have to jump…
One.
Two.
Three.
And I do.
Fly's POV
She's right behind me. Right behind me. I've always been pretty fast for a twelve year old, and I sure didn't expect to die this early. From the side of my right eye, I see Bella gripping a small dagger, just one thing that will probably kill me.
She swings it, letting it go from her hand, and it finds itself into my right arm. I fall to the ground on my knees, examining it, hoping it isn't too bad. If I don't move now, I won't get away.
At first I don't feel a thing, only like a needle. I can see the sharp blade, half obviously into my skin. But as time goes on, it feels like I've just been sliced open by a katana. It feels like hours, but only a few seconds had passed when Bella is at my side. She glowers over me, and then I see the girl from Eleven sprinting far behind her in the opposite direction. She looks a bit unsteady. And that's all I do notice before I feel the tip of a spear enter my body.
Bella's POV
A cannon fires.
Did I do it? Did I really kill Fly? Maybe, but who knows who else could've died by now. The other Careers are chasing down the rest of her group, and have probably caught up to them. A figure stands a couple feet away from Fly and I. I see her pale green eyes, her wavy chocolate hair. Ebony. She must've hurled the spear into Filloma. She gazes at me, pointing to something-someone-behind me.
Topaz is making a dash for the exit, probably trying to get back to any allies she currently has. She's pretty fast, but if I want to win, I'll have to be faster.
"I wouldn't bother." Ebony states, "She'll most likely make it back it time. Then we'll be in some deep trouble if we end up having to face all of them."
Gosh, how many allies does she have? We're stronger than most of the tributes, but there are a few who've proven to be worth much more than expected. "Right," I agree with her. "Let's go find Zane and Amethyst. Maybe they've found the other tributes. It's not very likely since their all pretty fast, but I believe Amethyst and Zane have their moments."
We both know that they're not exactly the running types.
"Yo, Bella!" Funny, he couldn't tell we're in the arena? Let the world know, why don't you, Zane?
They come sprinting, Amethyst and Zane, looking as if they're both trying to outdo the other. Is that normal? Of course showing off is, but when it's against their own ally?
"Get anyone?" Ebony asks, as soon as they're only a few feet away. They both stop breathless; it did look like a long way to run.
"Nope," Amethyst answers. "But… we thought we got one, but..."
"The damned lights blew out." Zane interrupts. "We lost whoever it was. The other two got away, no harm done."
"We did manage to injure the one we lost though," Amethyst says. Her eyes follow Fly's body. "You got her?"
"Think so," I say. "Or rather Ebony did. Not so sure she's dead."
"Who cares," Zane points out. "She's too small to live after something like that. Grab your spear, Ebony." Ebony does so, knowing what we're about to do. "We're going to find a base A.S.A.P."
"Oh! I know just the right place!" Amethyst shouts. "It's wonderful!"
And she leads the way, not asking for any permission. And we follow.
Melane's POV
After a while, Jet, Obel, and I decide to find the darkest area there is here. Most of the lights are blown, so it's not that hard. We choose it's right by the swamp quarter, a small path lies right next to it, and trees all around us. If anything, it's the best place to be when we don't the other tributes around.
We're too tired to say anything, too breathless. We're lucky the lights were blown, because Obel had gotten an injury to the arm by Amethyst. She's pretty good with knives. But the injury isn't anything too bad to worry about. All we've been worrying about is Fly.
She's only twelve, and also the fragile one. But we haven't seen her after the Career's attack, and there was just a cannon fire not too long ago. What if it was Fly? She's fast, but to escape a Career tribute? I don't know.
And every thought in my mind disappears when I see her tattered clothing, dried blood smudged on her face as if she had been trying to wipe it away. Then, she collapses.
Hmm, so who did die? . Yeah, it killed me, but I did draw a name to see who'll die. Actually, I got one of my friends to draw a name, she drew one, but that tribute was already dead, and I said, "Oh, he's dead already." She stared at me lie she was gonna cry. (She's very sensitive...) so she drew another... Gosh, that killed me, but you all don't know who it is yet so..
