The day has arrived.
We had to wake up very early - 6am to be honest. For our luck we slept very well.
If I get the chance to see Lewis on the arena, I don't care about the cameras. I will fuck him because he is the first man that I truly care after dad is gone. Of course there is a chance for him to kill me, but I... I am not afraid of him. I am afraid of the others...
We dressed up, put our sneakers and got our bags. There it was a huge 12 on our clothes and our initials, FB and LT.
We split up, each one with a producer and I didn't even said a proper goodbye to Lewis.As I was with the production, Lenny got inside the corridor to give me another lucky charm.
- Hey, Fernanda! Where is Lewis?
- Went away with someone else. This is where we will enter?
- Yeah, on this tube you will enter the arena. Use this to protect your lips and avoid poisonous stings. It's a lipbalm and it gets the color you say. Test it.
- Hmmm, okay. Mauve. - it really turned mauve! And I used it. My lips were stunning. I kept it on my pocket.
- Thank you Lenny. Is it allowed?
- Yes. Melanie uses the same product. You will see.
- Thank you so much for everything, Lenny. Hope to see you again.
- Me too, Fernanda.As I got inside the tube I grabbed my two small blades and some shurikens. Had to put them inside a pocket from the overall. The tube got up and there we were. All of the participants into a platform and this huge clock on the sky. Three minutes to start. My heart beat started to go faster.
I was trying to find Lewis. He was the fifth one from my right. I saw him and he saw me. He used lip reading to give me instructions.
- Don't go to the middle! There is plenty of food and weapons, but don't go! Run away with me!
I just nodded. 1 minute to go. Everyone was in position and the girl from District 4, Vic De Angelis, was waiting to attack me.10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1.
A siren was used... And it's that. It has begun. We got out of the platforms and now it's one for each other. I ran to another direction, where Lewis was heading to, but Vic attacked me with a whip.
Lewis stopped but Sebastian saw him still.
- RUN LEWIS, GO!! - I screamed. He ran away from Sebastian. Meanwhile I got rid of the whip and used my blade for the first time, to cut it off. She ran after me and I even saw Melanie throwing something on my direction - it went to the ground. I ran as much as I could from Vic, but she was faster than me and grabbed my ponytail. She was about to cut my throat with a knife, but I used my blade to defend it. I cut her pulse so deep that she fell onto the ground bleeding.
- Cazzo! Damiano!! - She started to scream in... Is it italian? They speak italian in District 4?
Anyway, I ran as fast as I could, away from Vic... But Melanie was my shadow.
- High score, huh? I will get ya, Fernanda! - She said while she was using a bow and arrow, shooting into a Bee Hive.
- Now run from this, bitch!!!
She ran away and the bees were near me. Oh shit, I hate bees. I started to run from them, as far as I could, and climbed on top of a tree. There, I put some lipstick on my mouth and the bees went away. I didn't avoid to get a sting on my arm. It hurts so much... I will not faint!Okay, now it's time to hide from the others. I found a little cave in the woods and there I stood still for some time... While I was removing the bee wound. It was so painful, so painful that I dropped on the floor and passed out.
Some hours later, I heard a lot of fireworks. Robin told me and Lewis that each death is a bomb. At the end of the day they tell us on the Sky Screen the ones who passed away. I hope Lewis is not in that list... Wait.
I heard someone screaming in italian. Is it Vic?
No, it's a male.
- Fernanda? VIENE QUI PUTANNA!!
- What the fuck did he say??? Oh shit.
It was starting to get dark... Hunt someone in it will be hard.
I could tell he was pissed. I think I killed Vic. I must go away or I will be found by him.I got away from the cave and started to search for Lewis. But I could not scream for his name or else I would be found. Then I saw Damiano. He stopped by a river to drink some water. He saw a girl from District 10 and killed her. Another boom sound came on. Shit, they don't give a fuck.
- OMG, where are you Lewis? - I though out loud. Damiano heard me but he could not find me. So I grabbed him from behind with my blade and I didn't have a choice but to ask him.
- Where is Lewis Tan???
- Che?
- Lewis Tan????
- You... Look... I don't know where he is.
- TELL. ME. NOW. WHERE IS LEWIS TAN?
- I don't know where he is!
- Bullshit. - He tried to release himself from my arms but I trained so hard that I could hold him. I used my blade and cut off his throat... Damn.I killed two people. And from the same District.
Now I have blood in hands. Another blow came up. And it's from Damiano.
I got away from there immediately, because when I killed him, it triggered something onto the rocks. They started to crack and fall on my direction. Shit!! I had to runaway fast or get smashed.Thank God I got rid of the rocks. Now I need to focus and start to hide... I heard another blow. Shit!!! I hope it's not Lewis... I found out a hiding spot, so I grabbed my sack to sleep and laid down there. The night was coming and we had to take some rest. There was no blowing ups anymore.
We heard a music coming up from everywhere.
On the sky there was the ones who got killed on the first day.
- District 4: Damiano David and Vic De Angelis.
- District 6: Jemima Kirke and Alain Moussi.
- District 9: Yvonne Chapman.
- District 10: Olivia Cheng and Jason Tobin.
May they rest in peace. For Panem. Hunger Games day one finished.
- Thank you Fátima. Lewis is still alive.I still don't know how I survived but here I am.
