David Fall, 16, D9M

I yawn as I grab my crossbow that's by the sleeping bag, I crawl out of it and I notice that Ari is already awake, he's just sitting there, holding his knees to his chest, as if he's deep in thought. I understand why he would be, he just killed a little twelve year old yesterday, I remember how I felt when I killed Pandora, I know where he's coming from. But this is the Hunger games, people will die, whether or not we do it ourselves. I still feel bad since I assisted in Ari's kill, if I hadn't shot my bolt into her knee then she might've got away.

"Ari, I think we should move from this location." I say to him. Ari simply nods his head in agreement, he doesn't say anything. We've been in this crystal field for a while now. We grab a few more crystals. The mist has cleared up so we should be fine but just in case we need them as torches or make shift weapons. We stuff them in our backpacks, we then eat some bread that was sponsored to us for breakfast. After that and then walk.

After about an hour of walking we're finally out of that area and now we're in the tunnels once again.

Kim Shae, 13, D3F

Me and Xavier finished what little food we had left and then continued walking through the tunnel labyrinth. Xavier led the way and after a while I noticed something. The tunnels became wider, there were more jagged pieces of rock everywhere and there was... spider webs, everywhere there were spider webs, on the ceiling, on the walls. Some of it clung onto my feet and ankles. "Erugh yuck!" Xavier says as he begins swatting them with his sword in order to clear a path for us. I'm scared, if this is basically a spider web tunnel then that means there could be giant spiders or something lurking around here.

My breathing becomes more panicked, I try to move quicker and then suddenly I trip and land on the ground with a thud. "Oh my gosh Kim are you okay?!" He asks me as he tries to desperately clear the sticky spider web off me. Then I see it, a giant black spider, easily five times bigger than Xavier is on the ceiling upside down. For a second it's six crimson eyes blink and stare at me. I tremble and only have time to scream before it raises it's big, sharp sword like leg.

I let out a high pitched scream before the thing impales Xavier through his back and midsection; he is literally a kebab now. I scream loudly as a mist of blood sprays on my face. "K-k-kim, g-get out of h-here." He says in a slurred voice, clearly in pain. It raises my ally off his feet and he drops his sword. I pick it up to defend myself but what I see shocks me to my very core. The giant mutt uses its other sword like hand to impale him again, then with incredible strength and speed it literally bisects him at the waist, separating his top half from his lower half.

BOOM!

I scream as his intestines and blood paint the wall and stick to the web, like a horrific art painted by a psychopath. His upper half drops down at my feet. His lifeless eyes stare up at me, the pain and shock in his eyes. The spider then blinks at me. My face is covered in red as I let out a high pitched scream. The spider advances on me. Before it can impale me I lunge forwards blindly with Xavier's sword. It somehow impales the spider in one of its eyes but that just makes it angry. It lets out a sharp hiss and before I know it I turn on my heels and I'm running for my life. Wanting to get away from my bisected ally and the thing trying to eat me alive.

Ari Walter, 15, D5M

I hear frantic screaming and footsteps then a sharp hiss. David gets his crossbow ready. I have Thaihele's knife in one hand and my glowing crystal in the other. We continue walking and see that we're stepping on webs. I then see a little girl, screaming, crying, her face covered in blood a bloody sword in her hand being followed by a big black spider. David wastes no time and fires a bolt into the Spider's eye, it stops it for a second.

The Spider continues coming towards us and I raise my purple crystal, hoping to keep it away. The spider suddenly stops as if it's seen a ghost. It hisses and squals at the purple glow the crystal sharp is emmiting and is desperately tries to get away. "Stay away fucker!" I scream. David fires another bolt and it sinks into the Spider's eye. The spider then turns and flees, trying it's best to get away. None of us chase it.

I recognise the girl as Kim Shae, the little girl from district three. I heard a canon earlier, has she been in a fight? Did the spider kill her ally. David instinctively hands me his crossbow and embraces the screaming and crying girl, I guess he's trying his best to calm her down, not draw attention to us. But I know what this means. Neither of us wants to leave her out here.

I sigh. "I guess she's staying with us?" I ask. Daivid nods and Kim hugs him again, grateful to him. At least we won't have to kill each other later.


Robert Xavier- Man I'm so sorry man. I did NOT want to kill you off so early. I expected you to make it to the top eight or something but it's just that, it's getting harder and harder to kill people off and you were just the unlucky one to be picked to die, I actually was not expecting you to die at this point but I guess all I can say is, plans change. I'm so sorry you can't use that victors money to care for your sick mother. She will miss you and so will I.
