ATWOOD DRIFTWOOD- Dayley Harrvis POV
That was the odds. If I lived through the Bloodbath, chances were another twelve-year-old was going to die. I would have felt guilty, but it was all chance.
SPARK MITCH- Jayden Chadsey POV
Dang, that kid was heavy. I almost pulled a muscle dangling him overhead like Bane trying to look cool. I was sore for hours.
MINOS VELLA- Jason Lenn POV
I didn't even know Minos. When the Bloodbath started, I didn't hesitate. I guess the Capitol did its job well.
ONYX SOUL- Zinnia Fraser
Oh, good. That guy was so creepy.
CHROME CABELLO- Jessie Cabello
I'm so sad, Chrome. I need you to cheer me up. But you're why I'm sad.
ERIDAN MEDEA- Natalie Andrez
Bye, Felipe.
DANIEL MONDINS- Sarla Mondins
I wanted my big brother back.
ORLAND CORRADO- Mati Berlin
He was a cool guy.
CHARMING GOODWIN- Ruby Lalonde
Ding, dong...
AVA VAVE- Ember Steiner
I wasn't particularly proud of that one. It was an opportunity kill, not really a planned one.
PHOENIX HEMLOCK- Hemi Sergius
I heard he killed a nurse in his first Games. Good riddance, then!
HALON BAXTER- Emmeline Blythe
He was immensely intelligent. I wished he'd lasted longer, even though he probably would have killed me eventually.
TROY CAHILL- Zach Connouis
Troy was the only man who ever beat me in arm wrestling. That alone made him worthy of great mourning.
FLANNEL TWIST- Tatiana Kokolo
That did not give me great confidence, as one of the other Tributes who blurred into the background and got forgotten.
DAREN GERARD- Fable Anders
"I just yelled the first thing that came to mind," Ruby said. "I didn't mean to sound like an idiot."
ANTHRA MINE- Smudge Kells
I hate tigers.
DEMARCUS KING- Logan Quinn
My best good buddy. I'd find out who killed him, and when I got my hands on him...
SOFIA FERRARI- Ferrari Benz
Aww, my name buddy! She was so pretty, too.
LUNA IRIKA- Madison English
Just part of the job when you're a Career. No one likes it. Well, some of us do, but they make us look bad.
MIA BARNES- Tariq Bluegrass
Another one gone. There were plenty left, though. I wasn't alone yet.
TOTEM SWEENEY- Lyann Leavett
Hope you got eaten by a beautiful lady monster after seducing her, old buddy.
GIZMO TORRENS- Emmeline Blythe
My biggest competition gone. The world couldn't stand up to that mind.
ALDER PEACEBROOK- Nash Forger
Some Career just whacked a little kid. I hoped they were proud.
WHYTE ROBERTS- Floki Grimm
Elska, daudi swit otla ek lita uu veor.
ARIELLE ERMIN- Karyssa Evans
"What?!"
CIERRA DALINE- Dylan Brooke
Amphilia and I looked at each other. "Guess we don't have to look anymore."
Dylan Brooke- District Four male
We wanted to hunt, but we also had to secure our territory. The temple wasn't necessarily bisected into two separate halves. More likely they met up somewhere. We didn't want to bump into the Ones or have them sneak up on us. To prevent that, a reconnaissance trip was necessary.
The rooms in the temple were all lovely. Some were full of statues, and others had huge altars. The colors and patterns were different in each one, and in some, the smell of incense was in the air.
One of the room was not empty. Amphilia, Cierra, and I walked through the door and were greeted by a twenty-foot tiger. Not a tiger that was twenty feet long, though. It was more like fifteen feet long. It also had twenty feet.
"What is that thing?" Arielle asked.
"It's a tigerpede. Duh," Cierra said.
The 'tigerpede' Was curled up on one pair of its haunches, holding half a deer with ten of its feed and chewing on it. When it saw us, it dropped the deer and fell to all its feet, advancing on us curiously.
"Think we can take it?" Cierra asked.
"I don't think I want to," I said. We decided on a retreat. As we fled down an unexplored hall, I looked behind us and saw the tigerpede chasing, its endless legs rippling like waves. It seemed slower than a normal tiger, though. Maybe it tripped on its own legs.
It didn't take long to lose the tigerpede. When I stopped, Cierra and Amphilia weren't with me, though. As we ran, we must have taken different paths at one of the turns. Now we had to find each other and hope the Ones didn't run into us first.
Amphilia Fortune- District Four female
"Cierra? Dylan? Where'd you go? Aw, man..."
Cierra Daline- District Two female
The tigerpede roared behind me, and threw myself forward like a maniac. I rounded a corner and darted inside a random door, hoping to throw it off my trail. I ran headlong into the room, stopping when I saw its contents.
Dozens upon dozens of tigerpedes filled the room, intertwining and rolling around like a mating ball of snakes. They looked up at me, and half of them sprang.
86th place: Cierra Daline- Eaten by a mass of tigerpedes
Tigerpedes aren't in Hindu mythology, at least not to my knowledge. Tinks suggested it and since I like tigers and pedes, I went for it. It seems there are consequences for staying in the nice homey temple. I've always liked Cierra, since she tries so hard and doesn't think she's all that. She's sensitive and unconfident, which makes her human to me. She didn't have many votes, but they're so evenly spread that it's hard to kill anyone. Hopefully the votes that were for her will now go more strongly to someone else.
