Day 11
Ok everyone, here's the thing; at the moment my work schedule is kind of unpredictable and by that I mean I have no idea when I'm gonna actually want to work and when I wanna write fan fiction. Because of this, they'll be different time periods between uploads; sometimes a day, sometimes four. I'm really sorry about it but I thought you should know. Enjoy the Chapter and May the Odds be Ever in Your Favour!
Juliette Ryde POV
I can't stop thinking about him; the boy from one. I don't even know his name. He defied all Career logic- and he let me go. Why? I gave him nothing. Unless he killed the girl from 11 and thought some act of mercy would take it off his conscience. I could make myself believe that if I hadn't seen his eyes. The words he said were that of a killer but his eyes made me see him differently. It's funny, I felt weird just looking at him, not scared at all. I want to know him; I have too many questions. I just have to see him. Maybe I like him. But that feels wrong; I don't wanna be a traitor. But back home I never had the chance to love; Regina always said people like me just get hurt. I wish I knew what to do.
Lupus Cobaine POV
I flex in the mesh armour a sponsor sent me. The label said "a gift from the gods"; pfft how pathetic. I look from Whittier to Santana; dumb bitches. I finally had Whittier right where I wanted her but then that little prick managed to get a kill. Like it's a big deal; he killed the girl from 11. I could have done that with my eyes closed. But now Whittier's acting like he's some kind of hero and I get nothing. Santana's an idiot; she's always pissing everyone off and she's rejected not one but two alliance offers. Although she is female so I'm not exactly surprised her intelligence is low. Still, the two of them are weakening me, particularly Whittier. I need to find a time to get her back.
"I'm going hunting for tributes" Whittier announces, standing up.
"I'll come with you; maybe we should have some private time" I put my hands on her shoulders; Whittier turns around and takes hold of my hands.
"You're right; I do want some private time. As in time ALONE."
She yanks my hands hard and my wrists burn with pain.
"Next time, I take them off altogether" she smiles before snarling at us all "If anyone leaves while I'm gone, you'll be very sorry."
"Pfft, if anyone leaves they'll be sorry they waited so long" Santana snorts.
"Oh piss off!"
Woah; I've never seen Whittier lose her temper like that. She must be weakening too. Hmm, now Scout's alone. Now I can have some fun with him.
"So Scout; how far have you gone with Whittier?" I ask him, smirking "First base, second base, third base; or have you got all the way to a home run huh?"
"What are you talking about Lupus?" he's looking at something else; he don't seem to give a shit.
"I mean, you stupid little twat- have you popped your cherry?"
"What?"
"For Christ sake; he's asking if you're a fucking virgin!" Santana barks at him "And FYI Lupus, he's getting more action from Whittier than you, so why don't you shut that bullshit dispenser you call a mouth?"
"Do you guys see that?" Scout pipes up "There's something in the bushes. I'm gonna go check it out."
I don't try and stop him; the sooner he's killed the sooner Whittier will be mine and then once we've killed everyone else, including Santana, I'll kill her.
Juliette Ryde POV
I've been seen; I don't know what to do so I just hide behind a tree, hoping it'll be the boy from 1 who I see when I look round. Without warning he jumps out in front of me and I let out a short scream; he covers my mouth.
"What are you doing here?" he growls.
"I-I had to see you" I squeak.
"What? Why do you have to see me? I barely know you."
"I know; I just had to ask why did you let me go?"
"Because- because- I dunno. Because you were there I guess."
"Well- thank you. I'll see you around."
I kiss him on the cheek completely naturally then walk away. As I'm walking, a thought occurs to me. This is a game where we're supposed to kill each other. But neither of us tried, even though we're in separate alliances. It's like we forgot everything but each other.
Riddell Thicket POV
I can't believe it; death is what's kept me alive, if that even makes sense. The district 2 girl has held me hostage since yesterday. It's weird; I don't remember seeing her when I was killed by the Careers. I wonder if she is with them at all. I think she was going to kill me, but then she started asking me all of these questions about death and what it was like. To be honest, I don't really remember. When I try to think, I just see a bunch of blurry colours. Luckily I'm a good liar. But I don't know how much else she'll ask me before her patience runs out. She's only spoken to me three times and each time her questions have pretty much been the same so I'm better at making the stuff up. I would try to escape but she just moved the net she caught me into a higher branch. Wait a second; what about my backpack? I look inside and sure enough there's penknife; it's blunt. It'll take all night to cut it. But I'll try. Now I have a chance; and I will get home.
Ok I'm sorry this chapter was shorter but I thought I owed you something. On the bright side, I have ideas on how to carry on particularly on Riddell's storyline. The only reason I didn't carry on is that it's late and I'm bloody exhausted. I'm pretty satisfied with this chapter though. Do you think Juliette and Scout are too innocent? I just thought since they're both really innocent characters I didn't believe having them making out just like that would be realistic. By the way, you may know I told you guys about captain-random64's SYOT a while back. Well I'm gonna recommend another of her stories that I'm just getting into which is called Battle Royale: Friends Forever. It's pretty good and it's only got a few chapters at the moment so it won't take you long to catch up.
Death List
24th- Lewis Simmons: I had no problem with him but I thought one of the alliances should have a loss plus I think following Ruby is the kind of thing Lewis would do. I will miss him though; he was all cheery.
23rd- Mai Moonheart: I always felt so sad when I was writing for her; I had no idea what to do with her character. I thought it'd be best if I just ended her pain.
22nd- Coal Hartcell: I felt kind of bad killing him because he's been pretty popular but I struggled to write for him.
21st- Terrian Demetrius: I'm sorry to his creator but he was one of the hardest characters for me to write for. I have no idea why. Plus, he was all bitchy towards Cersai and I'm thinking "this girl has enough issues without you targeting her".
20th- Riddell Thicket: After not giving him an alliance, I didn't know what to do with him. Sorry to everyone who supported him.
19th- Dusty Abernez: In short, I thought I should have another death and believe me, choosing who to kill off was pretty bloody hard. In the end I chose Dusty, just because I thought he'd fallen under Whittier's spell the most and was therefore most likely to do something stupid.
18th- Ruby Rachel Rodriguez: I literally chose the first person who I could think of a death for; it was the only way.
17th- Annaliese Slate: Pretty much the same reason as Ruby but also because I didn't want her death end up too cliché.
16th- Jayden Williams: He wasn't as popular as some other tributes and I thought he'd run his course.
15th- Reedman Phelps: Like Jayden, he wasn't overly popular but I did like him quite a bit; at least he died a good man.
14th- Jenneth Myra Speare: She was actually reasonably popular but I just wasn't feeling her storyline anymore; also, I unfortunately left her in an awkward position what with her critical injuries and all.
13th- Clio Slate: I just couldn't think of much more to write about him and I thought he should go out before his storyline got boring. Also, selfish as it is, I kind of felt like his death will somewhat do Annaliese good.
