Each tribute slept peacefully the night of the Food Fight, the killing momentarily forgotten as sleep overcame the students. The shock of the previous day stays fresh in their minds as they see a notice pinned to their respective walls, listing the dead: Jack Fosee, Leo Coxx, James Burning, Ricky Hart, Nick Grey, Jerome Norris, Elliot Greene, Lola Goodwin, Cate de Boyd, Cristen Grey, Abigal Johnson, Juliet Conway, Marlene Tellsa, Kennedy Starr, Avery Jexx, and Morgana Bennett. However, they have bigger problems than the students that died as that morning they awoke with a simple letter beside each of them; their schedules, which could mean nothing good for them. Written clearly on each was the following;
Period 1: Physical Education
Period 2: English
Period 3: Science
Period 4: Genealogy
Attendance is mandatory.
Without anything else to do, the students make their way to the old gymnasium (the only one in the rotting building). In the middle, across the centre line, stretches seven red and blue dodge-balls, varying in size from a baseball to a basketball, all with a number of deadly looking spikes protruding in random patterns along their sides. On the door is a list of teams with instructions, read as follows:
Blue Team:
Chris Irwin
Kyrelia Falynnian
Sawyer Cook
Kristy Lee
Embeth Langly
Nathaniel Lee
Kobalt Mykeal
Red Team:
Jaxon Salam
Seraphine Martin
Jazzy Robinson
Seth Black
Caroline Smith
Alice Culpeper
Quinn Peterson
Take your spots on the appropriate side with the appropriate teammates, to not do so is to risk immediate expulsion- from your body.

Your Task/ Requirements:
All tributes must be on their appropriate teams, if you are not you will be put up for votes. You will start behind the black line on your side and when the bell rings the Game begins. Just as in regular dodge-ball the goal is simple; get everyone on the opposite team out. The spikes on the ball do not have to kill the people on the opposite team.
Your task will end when everyone on the opposite team have been eliminated/ have been hit. Your team must win.
***
Kills;
It doesn't matter whether every tribute on the other team is killed or only injured, that doesn't matter. The kills mentioned in your entry will not count towards deaths. Instead, everyone will send me a list of 5 ballot deaths, which can be students from your team, or the other team, or a combination or the two.
The 5 students with the lowest scores will be put up for public vote, and the 3 with the least votes with be eliminated.
PLEASE SEND ME THE LIST OF YOUR BALLOT DEATHS SINCE ANYTHING MENTIONED IN YOUR ENTRY WILL NOT COUNT TOWARDS DEATHS!
