Hey guys! The games are coming down to an end! But that doesn't mean that this story is anywhere near over! I hope you enjoy one of the last chapters that takes place in the games. REVIEW!

Rainbowdash ran for her life, sword in hand, ready to attack if necessary. The five-headed dog Cerberus was right behind her. Even though she was running as fast as she could, Cerberus caught up to her. There was a head in every corner; she was surrounded. Rainbowdash looked around for something to lend her an escape, but she couldn't see anything through the mist. Suddenly, the mist turned back into snow, and the dog disappeared. It was just a mirage.

"Thank goodness," Rainbowdash said in joy, "No more monsters." She looked around to find her trident, if the five-headed Cerberus was an illusion, then her trident must still be around. Rainbowdash couldn't find it anywhere. Maybe it was an illusion as well. Her sword though, was still on her back, which made Rainbowdash not lose all of her hope. She was still pretty good with a sword.

She ran through the cold woods in search of the opening where the cornucopia was, but instead of finding the cornucopia, she found another clearing. One with Shining Armor lying down and crying. She quietly snuck up behind him, her feet crunching in the snow. The nighttime sky was darker than ever before. Rainbowdash couldn't help but notice an area of squished snow, the shape of a dead pony.

"I know you're there," Shining Armor said. Rainbowdash didn't respond; it was too risky. She stayed absolutely still. "Who are you? You're not very good at sneaking around."

Still, Rainbowdash stayed quiet. Shining Armor quickly got up, picked up his sword and turned. He paused as he saw Rainbowdash there. Then he moved farther away from her, they were on opposite sides of the clearing.

"You," Shining Armor said in an accusing voice, "What gives you the right to come back to me?" He was shouting at Rainbowdash in anger.

"What are you talking about?" Rainbowdash asked, "What happened to you?"

"Nothing you should care about!" Shining Armor answered. He started crying again, "Nothing!" His voice cracked as he said this. "Nothing at all!"

Rainbowdash stopped. She looked at her sword, and decided not to attack yet. He was in a bad state, and she couldn't murder him. Besides, he was wearing armor. "What happened?" She asked.

Suddenly, the Capitol symbol shone over the arena. In the sky, Doctor Whooves, Rarity, Bright Darkness, Scootaloo, Trixie, and Twilight Sparkle were shown. Six cannons went off.

"So there's three of us left," Rainbowdash said, "I guess that's a bad time to try and restore an alliance?"

"You had your chance," Shining Armor said, "You betrayed us! You betrayed Tena, and Big Mac, and…" he whimpered, "Rarity."

"Is that what happened?" Rainbowdash asked, "You're sad because Rarity was murdered?"

"Murdered?" Shining Armor laughed, "Rarity wasn't murdered, but she can be avenged."

"What do you mean?" Rainbowdash asked, "How did she die?"

"Suicide," Shining Armor said. He cried again, "She committed SUICIDE!" He seemed to be losing control.

"What?" Rainbowdash said, "That doesn't sound like Rarity."

"She did, oh she did," Shining Armor answered. "She told me, the first thing she wanted me to do, was to murder you!"

"No she didn't!" Rainbowdash yelled, "That can't be right!"

Shining Armor calmed down. "No she didn't," he whispered. He started talking under his breath, "What should I do? What would Rarity want? She would want me to win! To represent the careers! Ya! She would… she would…" It suddenly occurred to him that he didn't know Rarity very well. "Maybe…" He looked at his sword with suicidal thoughts flooding his brain, "Maybe I could get to know her better."

"What are you doing?" Rainbowdash shouted to Shining Armor. He had turned his back on her, and she watched him take out his sword from afar. He held it up to his neck hesitantly, but he couldn't do it. Rainbowdash realized that it was probably time to go away, time to leave and not witness the evil that was about to be portrayed before her. Shining Armor's death.

"YAGH!" a shout billowed from the woods. Suddenly, a small dart was caught in a chink in Shining Armor's armor. He screamed in pain as the acid went into his system. A dart flew right by Rainbowdash's ear, and she knew it was time to go. She flew up into the canopy of the woods, and flew through the treetops hoping to lose whoever was shooting those darts. She managed to fly a long distance before she stopped.

"I guess that's the end of Shining Armor," Rainbowdash said to herself. She hurriedly found some edible plants. She ate them, and they were really satisfying to her empty stomach. Then, deciding she was far enough away from her pursuer, she went to sleep in a patch of grass surrounded by the cold snowy ground.
