Lamb Jess' POV-D7
The back of my neck was covered in sweat. The temperature was rising again. I couldn't find any explanation for the game makers to do this, other than to screw with us. We're all just toys to them. They play rough with us, so they have to get more every year. They'd torture us everyday if the audience would be entertained by that.
I pushed up the sleeves of my jacket, and pushed my hair out of my eyes. I look up to darkening sky. I heard cannon fire awhile back. That means there were only 7 of us left. 17 children have died. What if that shot was for Juniper? She's 12 too, and she's a lot smaller than me.
I thought of Rayne, she was much older, and still smaller. She died from a fall, a stupid accident. The girl, Lyla, she was older, and taller, but she was killed by those bat mutts. I ran like a coward. I tried for 2 seconds to help, then left her to die. I was disgusted with myself.
Hush Owens' POV-D3
I left Cin. I didn't want to be alone, but I couldn't be with her any longer. What if it came down to just us? I wouldn't kill her, not like I killed the boy from 4. I was twisting the bracelet around my wrist. My skin was red and raw before I noticed a steady breeze hitting me in the face. I held my hands still and the breeze stopped.
I turned the bracelet again, and the breeze returned. I turned it harder and I get blasted in the face with air. I fell over backward, and smiled at the gift on my wrist.
I regained my feet, and shook the snow from my hair. I spun my arm in a circle and watched as ripples appeared in the air above my hand. I spun bigger circles, and my hair whipped around my face. I put my hand to the ground, and spun the air beneath my feet. My feet hovered above the ground for a moment before I fell on my face. I needed practice.
Very Short Chapter, I know. I was going to write more, but I don't really feel like it at the moment. I'll post again soon. Thank you to everyone who has voted on the poll for the 40th hunger games arena. I have an announcement! I will now allow you to reserve ONE spot in the 40th hunger games. Only ONE though. If you ask for more, I won't give you any. The D7 girl is reserved for me. Thanks for reading. Oh yeah, please reserve a different character from last time. For example, if you had a district 1 boy please go for a non-career girl. Thanks.
