Lysander POV
I shivered almost pitifully. I had decided not to go to the feast and I was hungry and thirsty. I was back in the sewers but today I was coming out. I needed food and drink.
I didn't want to die.
I stepped out, shivering as the cold wind hit my face. The sky was clouded and I had no way of telling the time. In the games time didn't matter as much.
All that mattered was surviving.
I stumbled around the shops, finding an ally that looked abandoned. I listened for a few seconds but I heard no noises except running water.
Water!
I ran down the ally, wincing. My body protested bitterly but I kept going. Soon I was in a clearing.
There were no buildings around and there was grass, even a lake. A few rabbits hopped around and I salvated and the chance at meat. I had my axe with me and I ran for one.
By some mad luck I caught it and killed it quickly. I was at the point of shoving it in my mouth raw but I used two sticks to make a fire. I had spent a whole day at the fire making station and it was paying off.
I started the rabbit off cooking, trusting the clouds and far off buildings to hide the smoke, and went over to the lake.
First I drank a long drink, I was thirsty beyond compare and it was nicer than anything I'd ever drank.
I quickly stripped down to my underpants and looked at the clear water. My hair was longer and wilder now, and I was too thin. I looked like a tree that hadn't got enough sunlight.
I dipped into the water, it was cool but not cold and I enjoyed the feeling of getting the dirt from the sewers off me. I didn't dare wash my clothes and just put them on whilst I was still wet. I was uncomfortable but I would get back in after my rabbit had been eaten.
It was cooked now, not exactly evenly but I didn't care. I ripped bits off of it and chewed vigorously for a good 20 minutes. I felt more alert and I walked back over to the lake and stripped again. I couldn't swim but it felt good just bobbing up and down.
That is until the Mutt got me.
I felt a scaly hand on my foot and I screamed in terror. It bit me but I pulled myself out, kicking it in the face. I hurriedly got dressed and put out my fire.
I wanted the sewers back.
Ian POV
I walked around, slightly trance like when I saw the boy from 7. Quick as a cat I pounced on him. He struggled but his leg seemed to be weak and he was no match for me. He had his axe and he obviously knew how to use it but I managed to knock it out of his hands.
Quickly, with no emotion, I used my trident to kill him. He was dead in less than a second.

This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no!
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no!
Throw your sticks and your stones, throw your bombs and your blows
But you're not gonna break my soul
This is the part of me
That you're never gonna ever take away from me, no!
Awwwww. Lysander was cute but sadly he was so young. He probably could have won if he'd managed to steer clear of everyone, and took someone by surprise to end it but it's a lot of maybes. See ya again Lysander.
Ooh god, we're getting close to the end.
