Alright, here's the exciting chapter! Yay! I don't have many sponsors so if you want your tribute to go without food or water that's perfectly okay with me...


Eric Smithstone POV ( Yes, here it is!)

I've been waiting. Over an hour. Isa said she would be back before now. Hopefully she found those blasted smart kids and the bow shooters. They're the biggest threat to us so far. Eliminate them and we've practically won.

The Career pack is so far a bunch of wimps. Ross and Archer are okay, so is the Welroot girl and Taylors, but everyone else is weak. Goby Craybess isn't half bad, but his sister hasn't done anything. I hear footsteps. Probably Isa.

Yes, it's my little sister, she's got news.

"I know where they are," she says. "You'll have to follow me. They think I'm on water or food searching. I didn't memorize the path."

"Good," I say, then address the rest of the Careers, "Let's move. Pack up and go." And we all head off down the passage way. We walk for quiet a while, and then finally stop at a cavern.

"Quiet," Isa whispers, "I'm going to scout ahead to see if they're still there." Good plan. Isa moves on ahead, and we just stand by. We wait, five, maybe ten minutes. There's some loud voices where Isa went off. I tell the other Careers to just charge and take them by surprise.

We see the group of them as we move ahead. A couple of them gasp, they've already packed up and are about to go.

"Get them!" I command. And they follow, but I lead. Isa just told them we were coming! I feel anger brewing and overflowing in me. I charge into battle, filled with rage at my sister.

They actually try and fight, I just wade my way through the battle. I see a Career get tackled and immediately hack at the attacker. He rolls over and cough out blood. The Career looks dead. I just keep going.

The next few minutes slows down, like a time stop. I'm randomly striking out, fueled by rage, killing as much as I can. I don't stop until the group disperses, and I'm still charging after them. I'm held back by the Drokes, probably. They're the only strong ones. An arrow takes out a Career near me. The bow shooters are still firing.

I finally stop and pause, taking in the destruction. It seemed like an hour has passed, and only five minutes has. There are at least seven bodies on the ground. I guess I never heard the cannon shots. The bodies are sinking into the ground. So that's how they are collected.

I look around for Isa. She's not standing. Then I get a glance of her hair, sinking into the ground. She's dead. And that's my spear that I lost track of in her.

Blake Dew POV

"I'm going to go find some water," Isa says calmly. Good, she hasn't proved her worth since yesterday's earthquake, and having her just randomly show up. Fishy, that's what the D3 tributes are saying.

The rest of us stand by and wait for some time. Finally Isa comes back, but her exxpression has changed. She's panting, and looks scared.

"You all have to go. Now. The Careers. They're coming," she huffs out. That double crosser!

"Why the *** did you do that?" I yell at her. It won't matter about volume, the Careers will be upon us momentarily. "You have a death wish for us?"

"My brother told me too, and I thought it was a good idea at the time. I really do like you guys." Isa explained, sort of whining.

"Pack up," I tell the others. "And leave this *** behind."

We're out of time. The Careers charge into the room, firing arrows and such. I keep retreating, we're not going to win this fight if we stay. Tron and Tecna follow me and my sister. We start off running when I turn and fire an arrow into the Careers. It finds it's mark and the Career falls to the ground, dead. The rest of us keep moving, with or without the others.

Our smaller group doesn't stop until the Capitol anthem plays and the floor lights up. The faces go by, there's Claire Taylor from D1, that double crossing *** Isa is dead, another D2 girl is dead, Luke Micheals. He's dead now. Goby Craybess,,and finally, Benjamin Lycrum of District Eleven. Where's his sister? She hasn't come with us, so she's still alive, somewhere. Finally, hen the faces end, Tron motions for me to see something. It's a silver parachute. We have sponsors, and they've sent us this.

There's some bread for all of us, and a little extra, probably for the dead ones. There's a laser pointer, not anything special but Tron reveres it like it's the key to survival, some wire, and some poles. This is all from District Three, probably, but I'm thankful for the bread. I hold it up and say, "My thanks to District Three."

Benjamin Lycrum POV

The fighting erupts between our group and the Careers. That Isa girl tol dhtem we were here and they've come for us. I see the res t of our alliance run, but then I see an arrow hit my sisters leg. She falls, wounded, and I do the first theing natural, go after the attacker.

It's a District Four tribute, with a broken leg by the looks of it, but that doesn't matter. I tackle them to the ground, being the wrestling pro I am, and pull out my knife. I run it straight across her throat, and she coughs out blood and eventually dies. BOOM!

I'm about to stand up when I see a flash of metal, a sword, run through me. "Ah!" I roll off of the dead Career as my life is sucked away. I find my sister in the ruckus, and motion for her to run.

Then everything just stops.

Chelsea Sapphire POV

I stand back out of the fighting, I was never a fighter. Always the nice one. I couldn't take a life. It would be impossible.

I spot my sister Catie, and she motions toward a guy. Luke Micheals. He's sitting, wounded by an arrow.

"Finish him off," Catie says in a commanding voice. So I go over to the poor kid and kneel down next to him and tell him that he should run. I try to be as comforting as possible in my words. He nods, but he's barely alive. When he sees my knife, he groans. I realize I just can't kill this guy.

"Screw you, Chelsea. You were always a softie," my sister says in that bossy voice. She lobs a spear at Luke and it enters through him. BOOM! Dead on impact.

"Just stay out of here,"my sister commands again. and I will, after what I've seen. I turn for one last look at the fighting, when an arrow barrels towards me. I fall back as it hits the area right above my heart.


Alright, there's your epic excitement chapter. But if you think that's exciting, you ain't seen nothing yet. Status update on all the others, life's been okay for them, since the Careers are occupied. They've stayed hidden and are okay on supplies. I will detail some more about the other groups on Day Six. So yeah, our first sponsor. Remember, any user can sponsor, but one item load per person.


Death List:

Isa Smithstone: killed by her brother Eric

Claire Taylor: killed by Ben Lycrum

Luke Micheals: killed by Catie Sapphire

Goby Craybess: killed by Blake Dew.

Ben Lycrum: cut nearly in two by Eric Smithstone

Chelsea Sapphire: was shot down by Basil Dew.

Technically, the anti Careers win, since they lost less people.

Our injuries:

Only Brynja Lycrum is alive, but she is near death, almost like Peeta in the first book. Hopefully she isn't left behind...
