OMG!! We are here! I am so excited to show you the bloodbath! There will be some deaths in this chapter, don't miss out on the action!
Let the Bloodbath begin.
The tributes would rise from their tubes to reveal the arena. The arena was very colorful, it was centered in a small town. The cornucopia was surrounded by a yellow and red brick road, leading to who knows where.
Tributes would be in awe, almost hypnotized by their surroundings. Once they made eye contact with the supplies, they got ready.
The voice of Head Gamemaker Arnold would echo throughout the arena.
"Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favor. May the best victor win." He would say.
Seconds after, the countdown appeared above the cornucopia.
25, 24, 23, 22
The tributes would look around nervously.
21, 20, 19, 18
Tributes would make eye contact with the items they wanted.
17, 16, 15, 14
Careers would look at the other careers, making sure they're ready.
13, 12, 11, 10
The victor from 12 and the victor from 5 stared at each other. The allies knew they had to stick together.
9, 8, 7, 6
The tributes got into a starting position, ready to run with the countdown fired.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1
BOOM!
As soon as the cannon fired the tributes began to run. Most of the victors ran towards the cornucopia, while a few ran away.
Sylvie Jacobs, Female, 17, Victor of the 123rd Annual Hunger Games
I decided to run towards the cornucopia, as I knew if I wanted any chance of survival, I would need some supplies.
As I ran further to the cornucopia, the Victor from 10 threw a knife towards me. I gasped and rolled aside to avoid the knife. I looked over at the victor who threw the knife at me, hoping he wouldn't come back. Thankfully, he ran off. I got up, to find a bow with 15 arrows next to me. I picked it up and began to look around for my alliance.
Kale, and Nova were gathering food in the cornucopia. Kale appeared to be holding a dagger, while Nova was holding a battle axe. I ran over to them, which Nova swung down her axe startled, barely hitting my left arm.
"Geez Sylvie! You startled me!" Nova says.
"It's fine Nova, I don't blame you. This is the bloodbath after all. What did you get Kale?" I respond.
Kale looked up after picking the last fruit and opened his mouth, but suddenly a crossbow shot flew out of her forehead as his blood squirted out. His body falls to the floor, as a cannon fires. Behind him was the victor from 4.
Nova screams as she sees Kale die in front of her. Before I could fire an arrow at the victor who killed Kale, she was gone. I picked up his bag of food he packed and looked at Nova, who was still crying.
"It's gonna be alright Nova, you need to stay strong. Let's just get out of here." I calmly tell her.
Nova nods as she wipes her tears away and gets up. We turned towards the yellow road and began to run down it, not knowing where we were heading.
Mack Zamada, Male, 37, Victor of the 104th Annual Hunger Games
As I witnessed the death of Kale, I got out of my hiding spot and ran towards the remaining supplies. They're wasn't much, but there were enough to survive. I turned towards a short sword and picked it up. As I turned around, I felt a sharp pain in my stomach. As I looked down I saw a knife. I looked up to see Victor from 1, crying.
"I'm so sorry…." She cries as she pulls the knife out of my stomach.
I screamed in pain as she pulled the knife out. I would instantly fall to the floor, dropping my sword. I attempted to crawl towards the girl to pull her down. However, she had an upper hand. As she moved away and picked up the sword. Tears falling down her face.
"I'm so sorry...I really am….and I'm sorry Rumble for you to witness your mommy murder." She raised the sword and plunged it down to my neck.
I coughed up blood as I groaned in pain. My surroundings started to fade as I took one last breath as my cannon fired.
Roman Hoxha, Male 77, Victor of the 66th Annual Hunger Games
I ran with my ally, Vizio, as we made it into the cornucopia. I grabbed a battle axe as I looked at Vizio.
"Get enough food and water for 3 days, we'll be needing it." I told him.
"Alright." He says as he quickly rushed over and took some cooked meat and 2 water canteens.
"Here! Take this! We need to get going now." He tells me.
"Alright let's go." I say as we run into the forest.
Ronson McGuire, 34, Victor of the 108th Annual Hunger Games
I managed to make it into a backpack and a scythe and took it quickly. I looked around, making sure that no one was near me. Thankfully most tributes went into the center. I closed my eyes as cannons began to sound. As I realized that everyone was dying, I ran off into the forest.
That is the end of the Bloodbath chapter everyone! I hoped you enjoyed it!
