Ladies and Gentlemen,
Let the 99th Hunger Games
Begin.
Annetta Sander, D10
I wasn't ready. I wasn't ready and now my plate is rising and I didn't get enough sleep and I didn't eat as much as I should have and I'm. Not. Ready.
But my plate is level with the surface and I'm looking around and the countdown is beginning….
Forty-three seconds.
Alaina Midnight, D6
Water. All I'm seeing is water. I'm on the uphill side of the Cornucopia and can just see its mouth to my right. Is that a dock off to the left?
No time for that yet. Focus.
Thirty-seven seconds.
Candle Saunteir, D2
Should I be this nervous? I feel like I shouldn't be this nervous. I'm a Career. I've trained my whole life for this.
A glance around the arena shows me it's an urban arena. Lots buildings, lots of hills.
Twenty-two seconds.
Lee Chang, D6
Gotta love the Gamemakers giving us this nice colourful landscape…. I've never seen a sunrise that pretty. Or an ocean with so many colors! It's so sparkly….
Fifteen seconds.
Allela Bucker, D7
Time's almost up. I'm not going in there. I've got to run. I can't handle the Bloodbath, I'll die. I 've got to run.
Eight seconds.
Tanner Craven, D8
It's a damn good thing Mazella's on the plate next to mine. That'll make it easier to grab her and run.
Countdown is almost over. Time to brace and go.
The gong sounds.
