Christian stared over at Ralph. This wasn't good, they had been split up. To Christian's left stood Kiku, to his right, Antonio. Both he and Ralph had pretty much figured out the alliances. Feliciano and Ludwig had formed an alliance, as had Arthur and Alfred. Gilbert, Antonio, Elizabeth and Lovino made up the largest alliance, while Ivan, Natalia and Irunya had the most intimidating. Vash had predictably teamed up with Erika, and Kiku had decided to go alone.

Christian shivered. He figured that, while they may ignore each other, should any of the 'normal' tributes, that included him and Ralph, would be considered a threat.

"The games will commence in one minute" the game makers announced.

Christian closed his eyes, and took a deep breath. The blood bath was about to begin.

"LET THE 100th ANNUAL HUNGER GAMES BEGIN!"

Gilbert ran straight for the cornucopia, Elizabeth right behind him. He saw Kiku disappear into the woods, and Ludwig fending off another tribute. There was a cannon blast. Gilbert saw someone fall limply to the ground.

He was the first to reach the cornucopia; he immediately began rummaging through the items to find something useful, trusting Elizabeth to watch his back. Ludwig ran in, grabbed the nearest pack, and ran off, Feliciano tailing him. Ivan did the same, except that he looked more like he was on a leisurely stroll rather than competing in a death match.

He saw the male district twelve tributes running towards the woods, the tribute from district eight following closely after.

"Gil!"

Gilbert turned around to see Antonio knocked to the ground. District four's female tribute standing over him. Lovino attacked her in a crazed frenzy, allowing Antonio to drag himself to safety. Another cannon shot, Lovino stood, only to be knocked down by another tribute. Elizabeth rushed to his aid, leaving Gilbert undefended. Gilbert grabbed a sword from the cornucopia, and charged the female district seven tribute, who had been running towards Antonio to finish him off. Arthur and Alfred rushed to the cornucopia and grabbed as much as they could while he was gone.

Bang, bang, two more cannon shots.

Gilbert wiped the bloodied sword on the grass. He turned in time to see Arthur nod at him, before running into the woods.

"Damn" muttered Lovino, who was inspecting Antonio's injuries, "looks like we'll be staying here for the night"

Antonio winced as he tried to sit up.

"Is it over?" He asked.

"Ja, we should be safe for now, come on, we can use the cornucopia as a shelter," responded Gilbert, "Elizabeth, Lovino, help me carry him over."

###########

Ralph cursed under his breath from his position in the tree. There went that plan, there was no way he and Christian could get any leftovers from the cornucopia now. He watched as Lovino, Gilbert and Elizabeth carried Antonio to the Cornucopia. He got down from the tree; there was no point in staying there now.

"Come on Christian, we have to find water," he muttered as Christian carefully made his way down from his branch, "if we stay here, and they catch us, there's going to be trouble."

Christian nodded. He looked a bit shaken, the games had only just begun and already, four were dead. He shivered; this was the real brutality of the games. Ralph patted him on the shoulder.

"It'll be all right mate, no one we knew is dead," he said cheerfully, giving Christian a cheerful smile.

Yet… thought Christian glumly.

##############

Arthur waited for Alfred in the ring of trees around what he called, the 'Cornucopia Clearing.' He could see Gilbert sitting on the Cornucopia as a look out, Elizabeth was treating Antonio's wounds, and Lovino was swearing. Arthur allowed himself a chuckle. It reminded him of the old days, sure, many people were missing, but seeing alliances that he had never even thought of, happening before his very eyes made him smile. But the circumstances that had caused these alliances to be, well they weren't exactly favourable. He thought of the four deaths that had already occurred, and shook his head bitterly. It wasn't right and he knew it.

"Hey dude," Alfred was a few metres away walking towards him and grinning.

"I found water," Alfred announced proudly, drawing a suspicious look from Gilbert, who sighed, guessing who it was by the tone of his voice.

"Ame- Alfred, keep it down," whispered Arthur, clamping a hand over Alfred's mouth.

"Mmmf," Alfred broke free of Arthur's grasp, and cuffed him over the head,

"Ow, stupid git," Arthur rubbed his head indignantly, while Alfred snickered. Something moved at the other side of the clearing.

"Shh," Arthur whispered, this time Alfred obeyed. Arthur and Alfred watched as a figure jumped down from a tree, followed by another, the tributes from districts eight and twelve. Arthur's eyes narrowed. They really did look familiar. He shook his head, now was not the time to be thinking about the other tributes.

"So Alfred, where is this water?" he asked, Alfred grinned and beckoned for him to follow.

Kiku followed Feliciano from a distance. It wasn't hard to do, as the Italian was obnoxiously loud. Ludwig walked ahead of Feliciano, determined to find a source of water. Kiku's eyes narrowed as he caught sight of the German. He knew what he had seen, there was no way Ludwig could really be alive. Ludwig stopped suddenly, and Kiku held his breath.

"I know you're there!" shouted Ludwig, Kiku flinched, but stayed silent.

"veh~ Who are you talking to Ludwig?" asked Feliciano innocently. Ludwig did not answer at first, glaring suspiciously into the woods, after a while, he sighed.

"It vas nothing I guess," He murmured, "come on Feli, we need to find vater."

Kiku breathed again, he would get to the bottom of this, no matter what it took.

Erika stared up at the sky, Vash sitting thoughtfully next to her. There were no stars here, the whole sky covered by a thick layer of smog, Vash coughed, he wasn't used to the thick, mucky air. She thought about her home, her real home. The alpine terrain, and rolling hills covered with long green grass, the air clean and sweet in her lungs.

Vash coughed again, louder this time.

"Big bruder?" Erika watched his eyes widen in shock as he looked into his hand.

"Erika, we have to run," he attempted to stay calm. Erika tilted her head questioningly.

"Come on, run now!" Vash yelled.

Erika leapt to her feet and turned around, seeing a wall of fog moving towards them.

"This way, hurry!" Erika ran.

Vash began coughing again, a harsh an deep cough, he ignored it and kept running. Erika ran after him, her pale green eyes widened with fear. There was a crash up ahead.

"Sw-Vash what are you doing here?" It was Kiku.

"Shut up, and run!" Yelled Vash, grabbing Erika by the hand as she caught up, and running off. Kiku took the hint and followed.

"Hey Ludwig, look, it's Kiku, Vash and Erika? What do you think they're running" asked Feliciano, catching sight of his panicked friends.

"Muttergottes…" muttered Ludwig, "Feliciano, RUN!"

Feliciano's eyes opened a little when he saw the fog.

"WAAA! The big scary cloud is going to eat me, please don't eat me, I have a white flag, see, white flag, white flag!" Feliciano made a white flag with amazing speed from a tissue and a stick.

"Dummkopf!" Shouted Ludwig, "That's not going to help, RUN!"

Feliciano took off at an alarming rate, fear powering his otherwise useless muscles.

Ludwig ran, leaping over fallen trees, and ducking under branches. Then he smelt the gas, it wasn't enough to do any harm to him physically, but he recognised the smell. He closed his eyes, guilt washing through him in waves. He remembered people crying for mercy, being chained in those dark airtight chambers. He stumbled and fell. What an ironic way to die. A shadow fell over him, and he waited for the end.

"Get up," Ludwig looked up to see Kiku standing over him, hand outstretched, "I don't know who you are, but I want answers, and I can't get them if you're dead."

Ludwig accepted the help, and took off, Kiku sprinting beside him. He could hear Feliciano screaming ahead, and he caught glimpses of Vash leading Erika through the trees. Then it stopped, the gas dissipated, as if it was never there at all. Feliciano, Vash and Erika had stopped running. They all looked up when Ludwig and Kiku joined them. Ludwig looked at them all grimly.

"They know who ve are," they all fell silent, all their minds realising the horrifying conclusion.

"They're playing with us."
