Caesar Flickerman - The Capitol POV

"We are joined here today by the District 4 mentor, Annie Cresta." I resume my talkshow broadcast on live television over all of Panem.

"It's a pleasure to be here.." Annie says in a deranged whisper.

"What are your thoughts about how Carroll & Sonya went in the games?" Flitter Colwill asks.

She closes her eyes and rocks back and forward on her chair before answering, "I guess.. just disappointment. I'm disappointed. They are a disappointment. They didn't take any of my advice and both died in water. I told them they had to learn how to swim. I told them to be careful in water. I door how knee."

Suddenly her words are inaudible and she goes into an insane fit screaming at the camera and ripping at her ears.

"Ok, well we're signing off now so tune in later for our interviews with the District 5 mentors."

Annie is dragged away from the room as Flitter concludes with a note.

"Speaking of District 5, today we'll be finding out what the creatures were that attacked Ginger on day 1 are! So keep watching The Hunger Games! May the odds be ever in your favour!"


DAY 10

Riva Billion - District 6 POV

I wake up to the sound of birds. Still in a state of drowsiness I sit myself up to find myself under the tree where the tarantula, "Tar", had last jumped on my face. I recall hearing a dangerous sounding scream coming from above. Like a reflex, I flick my head up to see what's above. But I find nothing. And Tar has disappeared.

Suddenly my ears adjust to what the birds are saying. "Riva, where are you? Please come back!" THAT WAS MY SISTER GAB'S VOICE!

I rush towards the sound and suddenly I stop. Jabberjays. Of course. The birds that record human sound. So my sister must be fine.

I start my search for Tar by heading away from the jabberjays direction.

Ellie Jackson - District 6 POV

"That's a nice set of knives there. Mind if I borrow some?"

"KEAM!" I leap up from sleep and rush down the tree. "Keam, where are you?"

"This way."

"Where?"

"Follow my voice."

I rush into deeper woods and the forest gets less spacious.

After minutes, I can barely squeeze in between two trees when I hear, "You're here."

"Where are you!" I scan my surroundings jarringly, when I see the image of Keam's body.

"Oh my gosh, it's you!" I run towards him and swipe my hands to hug him but my hands go straight through. "Wh-what?"

The image screeches in my face and I fall to the floor in horror. My voice disappears and I'm left paralysed in fear.

The image changes shape into a bear and I think fear has killed me.

Matt Marley - District 12 POV

BOOM.

I slowly yawn myself awake and I go to check for Ellie. And she's gone.

"Matt. It's not too late, I'm here!"

"EMILY!"

"This way."

I follow the orders and hop down from the tree to follow in the voices direction.

Knowing this may be a trap I stop.

"Matt. Do you want to save Ellie or what?"

I can't refuse this. Ellie's my friend now. I follow.

I can barely squeeze in between two trees when I hear, "You're here."

And a few paces forward is Ellie's body. It's too late.

"No!" I run to her remains to see she has been bisected with claws of some sort.

Emily Jones' figure appears before me calling for me to help her.

"Wh-what's going on here?"

"Help me, Matt."

"No!" I yell and run away from the horror. I'm going insane.

Holographic images appear as I run through the forest.

An axe is lodged in Emily's back. A bear cuts Ellie in half. The same bear leaps in my direction. I'm next.

Riva Billion - District 6 POV

"Tar! Tar, can you hear me?"

"Keep it down!" A voice sneers at me from the left. "And who's Tar?"

"Ben! Don't come any closer. I'm armed!" I aim my bow and arrows at the boy who once tried to kill me.

"I'm armed, too." He pulls out the machine gun he must've took from Renee's corpse. "Put it down or you die."

I drop my weapon. I'm outdone.

"That's right. I hope you don't feel much."

"Wh-" Out of nowhere, something flings overhead and onto Ben's machine gun. All I can hear is shrieking in terror and then the machine gun is fired, killing Tar almost indefinitely.

"NO! NO, WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?" I run towards Tar who is barely alive. "No... No, no, no. Tar. You'll be okay." Tar twinges as he moves close to me. "I promise you're going to a good place." I kiss his head as he dies cuddled up to me.

"Ben, you're dead! You'll pay for that." Then a cannon fires.

I look to Ben who is lying on the forest floor. I slowly get up and move closer. His face is unrecognisable. Tar had once again saved my life. And this is the final time he would.

Acid had killed Ben Horx. The little helper could spray acid.

Right before my eyes, an image plays of me hearing a screech. Tar knocks me out. Then he leaps onto the attacker.

If Tar had not been there to save me, this muttation would have been the biggest threat in The Hunger Games this year. An ancient looking bird, covered in hilarious colours had claws that could shred you into a thousand pieces. It had eyes that could immobilise you from fear. It's screech probably causing deafness if heard directly.

Tar sprays a round of acid into the birds face. And it flies away in agony.

The image vanishes and I'm left in the quiet sound of the woods. My best friend had died saving me. I needed to repay him. And in order for that to happen, I'm not going to put his attempt at keeping me alive fail. I'm going to win the Hunger Games. Not just for Gab. But for Tar as well.


No known alliances.
