Britan Wikiheart, 15,D5F
It's that day, the day of the games. The day I could die. I had been woken up and eaten breakfast. Me and Ari had to eat the same thing. We got dressed and had to go into a harrier ride to the arena. It had been silent, no one spoke, we would all be out for each other blood in the next few hours, my knees had been shaking. We had all been asked for our arms and they injected our trackers in us. Now the Game makers will know where we are at all times as long as we are in their sick arena.
My stylist then came in. What were given didn't reveal much about the arena. Black T-shirt, green combats, white trainers. No jackets it seemed, does this mean it would be a hot arena? "Well Britan, it's been nice knowing you." He says. Without thinking I embrace him tightly, he hugs me back. "Remember, just get with Ari and stay true to your decisions, don't second guess yourself." He says to me, I nod my head.
Five seconds until launch.
I nod and walk in the tube, the glass suddenly closes me in and I rise up. Ready to face the cornucopia.

The first thing I notice is the golden cornucopia but there's no sunlight glinting off it. Why? I look around, there's minimal light, there's some sun rays shining down on it, there's a few sun rays around the cornucopia actually but other than that there's very little sources of light. It's as if we're in a giant cave. I look down at my metal plate and look to my left and right, the boy from two and the girl from six is right next to me. The floor looks like rock, very hard rock, I look behind me (still being careful not to move my feet) and see that it's like a pit, looking closer I notice that there's paths, behind me there's two paths, not too narrow but not wide, only enough to accommodate about two people at most. Will I die if I fall off? I don't know, all I know is that it will probably be hard to see, not impossible but I definitely need to look where I'm going.
The voice of the announcer booms throughout the arena. "Ladies and gentlemen. Let the one hundred and twenty fourth annual Hunger games begin!"

I can't see Mike. He's probably blocked by the Cornucopia.

Aww man. That axe sure will come in handy... If I don't die first that is.

No tridents? I guess I'll just use a spear then.
