Day Two:
Alec Leopard (D12 M 16)
I awake to the sun beating down on me though the window. Charisma and I have taken refuge in a classroom on the second floor. "Morning," Charisma says. She was taking watch while I slept.
"Good morning," I say. "You can take a sleep now. I'll take watch."
She nods, and lies her head down on a blanket we got at the bloodbath. Within minutes, she has fallen asleep. We haven't really hidden ourselves in this classroom. We're kind of just lying under the teacher's desk. If a tribute came in right now, they'd find us easily. I guess we should move to a more sheltered spot after Charisma finishes her nap. This classroom doesn't seem to have many hiding spots.
I wonder if all the classrooms are the same. When we escaped the bloodbath yesterday, we ran up the stairs one floor, ran all the way down the hallway, and picked the last door on the right. Besides both a girl's and boy's bathroom, all the doors looked identical. In this room, the only helpful thing we've found was a turkey sandwich, a bag of chips, and a water bottle in a mini-fridge.
At the bloodbath, Charisma picked up a bag, a bow, and a dozen arrows. I picked up a spear and two bags. In the bags we found a blanket, a bunch of food and water, some rope, and a first aid kit. It's a pretty good supply, and I think it can last us a few days. The question is, will we be alive to need it?
Diamond Lupis (D1 F 17)
I hope the other careers will wake up soon. The sun has already risen outside, so we are wasting valuable hunting time. I don't want to wake them up, though, because I don't want them to be mad at me. A few minutes later, Venom wakes up, and rouses up the other four.
We dig though the food supply, and each find something to eat for breakfast. I find a can of soup and some crackers. When we're all done, Venom starts talking. "Well, we're going tribute hunting today, so someone will need to guard our supplies. Any volunteers?" No one says anything. I don't think he expected anyone to. "Okay, I think Diamond should take watch today."
"What?" I say, fuming with anger. "I don't want to take stupid watch while you guys are off hunting!"
"Well, someone's has to guard our stuff, and I say it's your turn," Venom says. "And if it makes you feel an any better, when we come back for lunch, we'll switch."
"Okay," I say, starting to feel a bit better. "And I won't have to guard supplies tomorrow?"
"Nope."
"Okay," I say. I guess it could be worse. At least I get to hunt for half of a day. The five of them grab their weapons, and head out towards the hallway. I hope they don't catch all of the easy ones this morning.
Simone Rose (D12 F 16)
I've found an excellent hiding spot in the auditorium on the first floor. Backstage, I found a trap door that leads to a room under the stage. I then covered the trap door with whatever I could find. The room is pretty big, and I found some snacks and water down here. I'm pretty happy about this spot, but not happy that I have no allies.
I was so sad when Catherine died at the bloodbath. I will get revenge on the girl who killed her. I will kill the girl from District One; Diamond I think. I killed one of Diamond's friends at the bloodbath, but that's not enough. I must kill Diamond, and as many careers as I need.
Speaking of careers, I hear loud voices above, that must be the careers. I shut off the lights, and hide behind a desk; just in case they do find the trap door. I can't hear what they're saying, but I don't hear the voice of Diamond. Maybe she died this morning while I was sleeping. I doubt it, but I can always hope.
In another minute or two, the voices fade away, and silence overcomes the room again. I squirm out of my hiding spot, and then turn the lights back on. I eat a package of crackers, because I haven't had breakfast yet. I sit down and relax, wondering what I'll do today. I guess I can explore down here. Yesterday, I sorted through my supplies. At the bloodbath, I got a knife, a package of crackers, a package of dried fruit, a water bottle, a piece of flint, and a jacket. Down here, I found three packages of food on the counter, and maybe I'll find more today.
Venom Tryyne (D2 M 17)
I am mad that we didn't find anyone on the first floor. Hopefully, we'll find some tributes on the second floor. We head back to our base in the kitchen. I promised Diamond that she could hunt in the afternoon, so I guess it's best if we head back for the little crybaby. I think I'll have Twilight guard the supplies in the afternoon, because I like him least, except for Diamond.
We eat a quick lunch, because we are eager to get back to hunting. When we're done, I grab my sword, Candy grabs her spear, Diamond grabs her bow and arrows, Fusion grabs his throwing knives, and Crimson grabs his spear. We head off; down the first floor hallway and then up the stairs one floor.
After a few rooms, our routine stays the same; we kick open the door, search the room for a few minutes, and then walk back out. It was different this morning, because the first floor only has special rooms like the lunchroom, the auditorium, and the greenhouse. We reach the bathrooms in about an hour and a half, signaling that we're about halfway done with the second floor. There has to be someone in this other half of the second floor, because we've found no one all day.
Charisma Dayton (D9 F 17)
I wake up from my nap, and eat some lunch. "Charisma," Alec says.
"What?" I ask, through a mouthful of crackers.
"Do you think we should move to a different spot today. This room doesn't have any hiding spots at all. If the careers were to burst into here right now, we'd be dead."
"Okay," I say. "But where should we move to?"
"I don't know," Alec says. "I think the ground floor has the best spots for hiding, but it's close to the career base."
"How about we move to the opposite end of the hall on the first floor?" I suggest.
"I guess that seems all right," Alec says. "Let's go, before someone does find us here."
We gather all of our food and supplies into our bags. We'll keep our weapons out when we travel; just in case we happen to fall upon another alliance. We stand up and stretch, because we've been crouched down here behind the desk for at least a day. We walk over to the door and open it up. And who do we find on the other side? We find the careers, coming out of the room across from us.
I run towards the stairs, as fast as my legs can carry me. I hold my bag over my head to protect it. I see spears, arrows, and knives whiz past me as I make my way towards the stairwell. I reach the first step, and feel an arrow fly into my hand. I ignore the pain, and run up the stairs."Boom." I hope that wasn't for Alec. I run up to the fourth floor, and dash into the first room on the right. I think the careers think I have gone to the fifth floor, because I hear excited and loud voices above me. I now either need to find a good hiding spot here, or evacuate to the first floor.
After a few minutes of looking, my feet trod on something small, sticking out of the ground by the blackboard. I bend down and see that it's a screw. I pull the screw up, because I at be able to use it for something. Instead of the screw coming out of the ground, something better happens. A little panel opens up on the bottom of the front board. I peek my head into the hole and find that there's a tiny room back here. Excellent.
I shove my bag, bow, and arrows into the room, and then climb in after them. On the inside of the room, I find another little screw sticking out of the ground. I pull it, and the panel slides back pain place, sealing the room. Only now do I realize that I can see through the wall. It's transparent, but it's odd how it's not like that on the outside. It's really neat that the Capitol scientists have discovered how to make a wall that is transparent on only one side. If only the Capitol spent that money on food for the poor citizens.
Fusion Sanders (D4 M 16)
Well, I'm glad that we got one kill in today, and I'm especially glad that it was me who killed that boy. I got that boy from District Twelve with one of my throwing knives in the head. I wish we had gotten that girl from District Nine too. Diamond hit her in the hand with an arrow, but it was not a fatal shot. That girl lives on, and we must kill her.
We are now sitting in the kitchen, waiting for the Panem Anthem to start. We are pretty sure that the boy from District Twelve was the only death, but maybe there was one in the middle of the night, but the career on watch was too drowsy to hear it. The Panem Anthem finally plays, and I was right. The boy from District Twelve is the only face on the ceiling tonight. The anthem ends, and Venom tells me that I have first watch today. I'm tired, but I guess someone has to take watch. I sit on my sleeping bag with a knife in my hand, hoping that the hours go by really fast.

Okay, day two is over. There was only one death today because I wanted to catch up on some of the alliances and there wasn't many people hiding on the first and second floor. Tomorrow, the careers will hunt on the third, fourth, and fifth floor, so there will definitely be more than one death tomorrow. :-)
