Katie Lee Edwards sat quietly in a railwayman's hut eating some of her bread and drunk a bottle of water, she had climbed up the embankment which was dangerous in itself but she had made it up and then walked along the railway line and had found the hut. She easily broke in and then used some bricks to barricade the door with some bricks and then had found some blankets and covered up the windows. The sunlight did shine through but nobody could shine through, Katie Lee had a Colt 45. Has her weapon but she didn't know how to use it. She had read the instruction manual. She got a mirror out of her blazer pocket and looked at herself. Her black hair was still neat which made her smile Katie Lee was popular with the males in the year she did have her free choice of the males. She had tried to hit on Paul last Christmas but he had rejected her advances as he was with Sandra. She had sat next to Beth Thomas in registration in set B and she did get on really well with Beth but she didn't want to hurt her at all costs but what she knew was this game thrived on was fear and paranoia. From the first announcement she had heard that fifteen of the year where dead she knew about Daniel and Alice but the rest of the list had made her feel sick to the stomach. She had heard gunshots through the night and a few minutes ago. The gunshot which she had heard was James killing Zoe but she didn't know that. She had decided that safety was critical and she knew that she would have to stay on her own her friends would not join up with her and risk getting killed. Her head drooped slightly and she sighed she began to think that today was the first day of her new life if they hadn't been taken they would all be getting ready to either go to university or join up to the armed services. Katie had got a place at Leeds Metropolitan University to study to become a teacher. She still could become a teacher if she survived the game. This made her think could she play? Would she play? No! She wouldn't dare to play as it was wrong killing people was wrong it would be too terrible to do. She would relax and hide and hope that the rest of her year mates would kill each other even though that was a horrible thought.
Matthew sat down on a sofa in the flat where they had taken refuge. He had found some old bottle of pop which was flat and tasted horrible but at least it gave Laura and himself much needed sugar boost. He kept the empty bottles as it was part of his plan for later on. But for now they where safe. Matthew held Laura's hand and smiled at her.
"Hey listen what ever happens I love you Laura" Matthew smiled. Laura looked at him and smiled.
"I love you too" she replied.
Matthew looked around the flat he saw a television and looked around he carefully crawled under the window and collected it and then crawled back and pushing the television along the floor he placed it on a wooden table. He then crawled back and collected the portable aerial and attached it to the television and plugged it in. He was hoping he could pick up the program.
His heart sunk slightly as all he got was static and then the channel menu appeared, he couldn't get to the program channel but they could pick up The Free view Program where basic edited highlights where shown. He looked at the remote and turned the sound down and put subtitles on. There was bad news being announced.
The female host of Program Extra was known as Galantria and she seemed very sparkly and bubbly as she was reviewing the program's events. There was around an hour delay on the footage and update here unless it was the updates at given times or game over.
"Well then Battle Royale fans we have a fantastic last fifteen minutes of the program remaining in this part we will look at the people who have made a certified effort to play the game so that will be the ones with two or more kills so let's start off with a dead constant sweet girl eighteen Annika Jordan who has been eliminated with three kills, then with three kills too we have boy number ten Bradley Asagba and three more kills to female students are girl four Caroline Stead and girl twenty five Chelsea Groves and finally with three kills boy one Daniel Fairfield!
