Day Two Part Two

VERY SUPER DUPER IMPORTANT AUTHOR'S NOTE~:

IF YOU READ, PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW! I'M IN A CONTEST FOR WHO CAN GET THE MST REVIEWS BETWEEN THIS AND THE HOUSE GAMES. I'M LOSING ;(

Spiral Blue POV

I'm walking nervously through the first floor of the arena. I think there is a stair case somewhere around here, but I don't know where. It's really dark in this hall...

Crack!

I hear a noise and jump. What was that? I let out a little squeal. I grab a sharp rock that I found on the floor out of my pocket. I can take them...

"No, Motrid, we need to go this way,"

"No! I can practically smell water coming from this way!" I cock my head. Motrid? Which one was he? I shut my eyes tight and try to remember.

I feel a tap on my shoulder and turn around to see two boys that are a little older than me. "Excuse me, Spiral, have you seen any wat-"

"Who are you and how do you know my name?" I shout at them, holding up my rock. They step back.

"Um, I'm Motrid, and this is Ben," says the littler kid. "Have you seen any water?" Motrid asks. I shake my head.

"No, I'm really thirsty though," I say. Ben nods.

"Us too. Did you go to the Cornucopia?" Ben asks me, bending down slightly. I shake my head no.

"Nope. I didn't wanna die there," I tell them.

"One more question. Have you seen Dixie and Ribbon and Orchid?"Ben asks.

"No, but I wanna be with them,"

"Okay, Spiral, tell you what. How 'bout we be allies and go find them?" Ben asks. I smile really big.

"Yeah! Of course!" I tell them. Motrid smiles.

"Great, let's go!" Motrid cheers, and marches off to the left.

"Motrid," Ben says flatly. Motrid turns to him. "You realize that's the way we came, right?"

"Oh. Yeah," Motrid says, and turns around and marches to the right. I start to follow him, but Ben holds me back.

"Wait. We don't even know where they are. I'm guessing the second floor?" Ben says.

"Okay! I think I saw a staircase earlier!" I tell him. "Motrid! Get your behind over here!"

"Huh?" Motrid says, and runs back to us.

"We're going on the stairs!" I tell him, as I try to remember where I saw them. "This way," I say, and point forward.

We eventually find the stairs and climb up, and are greeted by a sight that's definitely not three harmless girls.

Brook's POV (She's my Foxface clone xD)

I wake up at what I'm guessing is around midday, laying in my 'den'. I sit up cautiously, careful not to make noise. The Careers are bound to be somewhere around here, near the Cornucopia.

I crawl out of my little tunnel silently, erasing any signs I was here, which isn't much because I didn't go to the Cornucopia and I'm in no positon to start a fire.

Driven by hunger, I start to head out to the approximate location of the Cornucopia, where I'm pretty sure the Careers-or at least some left over food- are. Surprisingly, I'm barely disorientated by the darkness and the fact I have no clue where I'm going.

I walk down the corridor, feeling my way along, until I come to a brighter part of the tunnel. There's the Cornucopia, and, sure enough, the Careers.

They're sleeping. It looks as if the girl from Four was supposed to keep watch, but she's asleep in a sitting position. Serena is laying in a black sleeping bag, Glint a few feet away from her in a dark green one. Azgaro is leaning against the wall, a brown blanket on his lap.

I walk stealthily towards their camp, trying not to make any noise. Just a few things. I don't need that much...

I grab two apples out of a bin, a first aid kit out of about ten others, a box of matches, a half full water skin, a strip of beef, two packs of two crackers, and a hand full of berries that I recognize as edible from the plants station. Not enough to be noticed.

Maybe I do stand a chance, after all.

Ben's POV

"Dont. Move," I tell Spiral and Motrid through my teeth.

But it's too late. Spiral is running in circles and screaming like a maniac, and Motrid is taking small steps back, putting his hands in front of him.

Mutts. There are two rabid, wild dogs in front of us, bearing razor sharp, five-inch teeth. They're grey with black arrow tip shapes running down their back. The mutts are about six feet long, walking on both feet. Feet. That's when I notice the claws.

Three-inch, sharp as the teeth, golden claws.

One of them takes a lunge at us. I scream and duck behind a boulder, pulling Spiral and Motrid with me. Spiral starts to sob as the two dogs begin to claw at the rock. I try to shush her then Motrid cries too.

Finally, one of the mutts comes to it's senses and walks around the boulder to see us. It barks at the other mutt and it comes around too.

The second mutt bares it's teeth, froth coming from it's mouth, and opens it's mouth and lunges at us. We move out of the way just in time, so it looks dumb, as the mutt is chomping on air.

The first one growls and lunges straight for Spiral. She pulls away, but the mutts claw had already sunk into the skin of her leg, so her moving back only made it worse, dragging the mutt's claws along her leg.

Spiral screams in pain as the mutt scrapes her leg. Bright red blood (A/N That means it's oxygen rich, thanks to my science teachers for telling me that xD) pours out of her leg in a steady stream. She tries to wipe it away, put it just makes the open wound worse.

The mutts keep lunging, and we keep dodging. Spiral's leg is now in a pool of blood, her skin white as a sheet.

When we are far away enough from the mutts, I take a breather, so do Motrid and Spiral. Then something crazy happens.

Motrid runs up to the boulder we were hiding behind, barely picks it up, and then slams it, with all his power (which isn't very much) on to one of the mutt's heads.

But, apparently, that's enough to kill it, as it lies on the floor, head dented, whimpering (A/N Clove much?)

"Motrid, go sit down, I'll get the other one," I tell him. I grab another boulder and throw it down on the other mutt, but not before getting bitten on the fore arm. It dies though.

Somehow, Motrid is the only one that didn't get hurt in this process.

Acacia Yandalu POV

I wake up around midday, the rest of my allies are still sleeping. I get up to check the supplies.

Didn't we have more first-aid kits? I think as I look over the supplies.

I look behind me to see that Serena is behind me, also looking over the supplies. "I could've sworn we had more apples...," she whispers.

"Serena?" I say. She turns to me. "I think we've had a visitor,"

~~~~~~~~~~ At Night~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tasi Merkava POV

"And I'll take Azgaro?" I ask. Mila nods.

"Yup, you and Azura. Kendrick will get Glint, I'll work on Acacia, and Callum has Serena," she answers.

"Are you sure this will work? We're just a bunch of teenagers, going against two Victors and two volunteers," Callum says.

"We're bound to get at least one of them, Callum, so stop worrying," Azura says, leaning back against the dirt wall.

The Capitol anthem begins and we all look up at the sky.

No faces tonight...

Chapter end!

I didn't know who to kill, so I killed no one... but I hope I kept your interest.

Someone will die next chapter... I hope.
