Antoinette Bloodstone
I was one of the fastest to recover from the shock of the idiot jumping and I ran to the cornucopia.
I grabbed a sword, I didn't use it much but I could kill people easier, some knives and left, I would pick what else I wanted later.
I saw the girl from 10 crawling for a fake leg and slashed her in the stomach. She wasn't dead yet but she'd soon bleed out.
I got a lucky shot with the boy from 3. I threw a knife into his head and he died immediately.
I started laughing. This was easier than I thought it would be.
Gregory Watson
I run into the cornucopia, ignoring my instincts and grab a knife and some food. A few times I had an opportunity to kill but I didn't want to do that until I had to.
I was beginning to think I'd make it out, that I might survive this when the boy from 1 saw me.
The last thing I saw was a flash of silver before I was in more pain than I'd ever been.
All my training didn't help when a sword ran through me.
Isolde Prescot
I grabbed a sort of glove that acts as fingers and slip it on.
Now I'm in control.
I scan the cornucopia for a weapon that I can use when my eyes fall on a bow. I gratefully pick it up and get to work.
I killed the boys from 9 and 8 and I think the boy from 6 but it was too close range and I didn't want to hit any of my allies. I saw Ian killing someone and smiled.
The bloodbath was over fairly quickly this year.
Almost suspiciously quickly.
"So, how many did you guys kill?" Said Antoinette maliciously. "I got the boy from 3 and the girl from 10 will probably be dead soon."
"I got the boy from 5." Said Travis. "He was almost too easy."
"Girl from 9." Said Ian. "She put up a fight though." He gestured to a scratch on his head.
Sierra looked embarrassed but then I noticed something.
A distinct lack of someone.
"Where's Ulrich?!"
We had gone down to 5 members.
Maya Klein
Of course Hershey bar got himself killed in the bloodbath. Now our alliance was down to 2 and Rosa still made me uncomfortable.
We split supplies. Rosa had killed the boy from 2 apparently and he had carried a sword. I had grabbed a knife and a bit of food but that was my lot.
At least Cow Girl was probably dead. Last I saw she was bleeding out on the ground.
Serves her right for embarrassing us.
Lysander Reed
I stared at myself in shock. Somehow I had survived and had found a small tunnel to take refuge in.
It smelt bad and I had a sneaking suspicion it was a sewer but I was alive.
I had survived the bloodbath.
I didn't really have any supplies, I grabbed a bottle of water and ran. Thankfully it was full so if I survived I could easily spend the night here before having to come out.
I didn't have a fake limb or anything but I could survive without that.
I was beginning to think I could survive anything.
Amber Blacksmith
I looked at us in shock. We had all survived the bloodbath and Natalia had gotten a leg.
Carolyn had been amazing, we had a positive feast of food and we weren't doing badly for weapons. Each of us had a knife and we had found a small shop for shelter.
It seemed to be a sort of clothes shop but it only had furs. They could be useful to sleep on but nothing else.
The best part was the lock on the door. We couldn't be surprised by the Careers. They'd have to knock it down with axes and we'll hear them doing that.
It was perfect.
Jacob Perkret
I had been wondering around, trying to find a tree or something when I saw the careers.
The girl from 2 pulled out a pretty knife and swung it at me.
Suddenly I felt really bad and I started screaming.
I wanted it to stop so bad. I wanted to see Nuts. To say goodbye.
I stood up and tried to kick the girl like a boy once did when he got into a fight with a peacekeeper.
As I did it I remembered that boy's fate.
It was gonna be my fate too.
Ian Shark
After Siaria killed the boy from 11 she seemed a lot happier.
I on the other hand felt like shit.
He seemed to be about 5 and throughout training he kept muttering about someone called Nuts.
He didn't deserve to be here.
After we had taken what we wanted from the cornucopia we looked around to find a shop. Soon we found a place that sold beds and put all our spare weapons.
We left Siaria on guard and went hunting.
People hunting.
Avy-Anna Green
Madhi was dying.
I saw her lying on the ground and couldn't bare to leave her like that.
I somehow got her to a building and lay her down. Her skin was even paler and her hair was messy. I ran my fingers through it and stayed with her until her cannon went.
I guess everyone else's went earlier.
I wiped away a tear and waited until the dead faces showed up on the sky.
The first was the boy from 2 which nearly made me faint with shock. He had seemed so strong.
The boy from 3 went next which was no surprise.
Geoffory was a surprise. I thought he'd survive longer.
The boy from 6 didn't shock me either.
Hershal's death was weird. Why was it only boys dying?
Both from 9 came next. That was a bit of a shame for 9.
When Madhi came I started crying.
I got my shit together and watched the rest.
The boy from 10 didn't appear. Wasn't he blind?
The boy from 11 was no surprise. He wasn't gonna survive and everyone knew it.
The scream of the 12 girl was still in my mind so that wasn't shocking.
Short chapter I know but I had writers block.
Was 9 deaths too many?
Deaths.

Blake Harley
District Three Male
ChillyIce
"It isn't that I want to win. I want to go home and I would do anything to get back to my brothers."
Killed by Antoinette
Ahhh Blake with his brothers. He wasn't a very memorable character and when Antoinette had her knives he had no chance.
Don't you dare look out your window, darling.
Everything's on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music's gone
Gone

Geoffory Watson
District Five Male
KingofKong1
"True fear is not something you feel. It is something that is drilled deep into your subconscious until you can no longer escape it. True fear is an inescapable doom."
Killed by Travis.
This was a hard one. I wasn't sure whether I should kill him or not. He was amazing character but I don't think I did him justice. Thanks KingofKong1. You still have Maya.
Are we out of the woods yet?
Are we out of the woods?
Are we in the clear yet?

District Two Male

"The sea awaits you, all you need to do is set sail."
Killed by Rosa
I don't think anyone was expecting him to go as early as he did (I wasn't!) He underestimated Rosa and that was his mistake. I know it said he wouldn't be a bloodbath on his form but sometimes it comes down to luck
Mama told me not to waste my life,
She said spread your wings my little butterfly
Don't let what they say keep you up at night
And they can't detain you
'Cause wings are made to fly
And we don't let nobody bring us down
No matter what you say – it won't hurt me
Don't matter if I fall from the sky
These wings are made to fly

Shirley Gravestone
District 9 female
Nelly
"Be your own kind of beautiful"
Killed by Ian
I don't think I did very well with Shirley. I overlooked her a lot. She could have been amazing but I never got to grips with her character. Thanks Nelly.
Kill 'em with kindness
Kill 'em with kindness
Kill 'em, kill 'em, kill 'em with kindness
Kill 'em with kindness
Kill 'em with kindness
Go ahead, go ahead, go ahead now

Hershal Kundert
District 8 male
ChillyIce
"I'll be safe if no one can catch me. I'm not a total lost cause."
Killed by Isolde
There were so many parts of Hershal I could have expanded on. He was an amazing character and he will be missed.
Not by Maya though.
Or Rosa.
All I own, all I own,
Are the strides I spend to the finish line
All I own, all I own
Are the strides I spend to the finish line
And I'll give you those

Felix Catharty
District 9 Male

"If you don't understand my silence how will you understand my words."
Killed by Isolde
I don't think Felix would have been a happy victor either. I hope I wrote him well enough though MoonlessGalaxy.
We don't need no education
We don't need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom

Hey teacher leave us kids alone
All in all you're just another brick in the wall

Marcellus Cline
District Six Male
ChillyIce
"To solve any problem you need to face if head on."
Killed by Isolde
His leg was gone and he only got a 5.
The odds weren't really in his favour at all.
I know I'm not alone
I know I'm not alone
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
I'm not alone, I know I'm not alone
I'm not alone, I'm not alone
I'm not alone, I know I'm not alone

Jacob Perkret
District 11 male
MoonlessGalaxy
"FEAR MY SQUIRRELLY RATH! Fear it!"
I don't think I did Jacob justice. I feel like I made him get progressively dumber to the point he wasn't the same person I wrote at the start. That might just be me though.
Sorry MoonlessGalaxy but don't despair. You still have Natalia.
Squirrel, squirrel shake your bushy tail!
Squirrel, squirrel shake your bushy tail!
Wrinkle up your little nose,
Hold a nut between your toes.
