The Capital Games (a writer games)

Overview/Task

Gamemaker Room

[12:30 1/29/13]

I watched in fascination as the teams raced to find each other, team one collected all members first, team two taking a few seconds longer.

"The tension!!!" I squealed at Joanna who just sent me a glare in reply.

"I bet my money on team one." I say

"Because its ahead?" Joanna asked

"No because my darrrrling Kasia's on it." I say enfisizeing the r in darling. Generally I didn't get this attached to tributes, but I found myself routing for Kasia more and more.

"Fine. Ten bucks on team two." Joanna said "They have stronger players."

"They also have 5 verrrrrry authoritative players." I grin

"You did that on purpose Ravea!!! Didn't you?!!!!" Joanna exclaimed

"You just figured that out?" I smirk "It will make it more interesting."

I turned my attention back to the screen, sure enough they were all killing each other, each trying to establish themselves as Alfa.

Rarity and Almeathea were rolling around on the ground attempting to gain the upper hand. Both girls were fairly comparable in strength, over powering the other would not come easily.

Zonia just kind of stood there stupidly....

Torao tried to be the leader by walking away, not wanting to waste time, but Augustus jumped on his head and began brutally maiming him.

I laughed as I watched the brawl in amusement.

"Your going to owe me 10 bucks Joanna!!!" I grin and watch her face contort into a deeper frown.

My team was behaving civilly As they co-operatively tried to find the shelter, though I noticed in dismay that Xaveren was slowing them down considerably, his limp seeming to of worsened.

Suddenly Lullie grins as she sees the shelter, they all begin to run for it... Leaving Xaveren behind.

"NO!!!!!" I screamed, though I knew they couldn't hear me, a team could only win when all of it's members were at the shelter.

Meanwhile; Augustus had managed to successfully pin Torao to the ground, he struggled desperately before halting long enough to look past his captor and scream "BUTTERFLY!!!" Augustus stupidly looked, and Torao rolled out from under him and ran for his life.

Augustice chased him.

A similar situation was happening in the Rarity/ Almeathea battle, Rarity had taken things a little too far and was now trying to kill Almeathea as she laughed crazily, realizing her danger, Almeathea began to run for her life as well.

My jaw drops, they're headed for the shelter!

I slam my fist into the table as team one manages to make it into the shelter first, and team two arrives seconds later.

Team one celebrates.

I frown and lean over the loud speaker. "Team one, I think you forgot about someone...." I say, Xaveren was only a little speck on the horizon. "Congratulations team two, your all there, Rarity, Zonia, Almeatha, Torao and Julius-"

"That's Augustus." Joanna corrected me

"Same thing." I growl "Anyway, team one step away from the shelter."

They obeyed, instantly the shelter transformed into a box and disappeared through a hole on the ground.

Some of the tributes from team one tried to see where they had gone, leaning over the hole, Julius slipped and fell to his death. A second afterwords water started spurting through the hole in the ground. Lullie screamed in terror and froze, as she was engulfed by the water. Kasia and Spítha ran from the rapidly advancing water.....

"You owe me ten bucks." Joanna laughed

"Fine." I growl, feeling my pockets, upon realizing they're empty I turn to Sky. "You don't happen to have ten on you, do you?"

"That's really sick that your betting on other peoples lives guys." Sky growled from her little corner she'd been moping in since day one.

I mean if she hated the games this much WHY HAD SHE BECOME A GAMEMAKER???? She had been no help at all, just sitting in her corner whining all day.

"She needs a time-out." I mutter

Joanna nods.

You look around, your stomach lurching from the fall you just took.

Your in a arena- a gladiator arena.

"WELCOME TO THE GLADIATOR ARENA!!!!" Ravea calls in a singsongy voice

"WAIT YOU SAID WE WOULD BE SAFE IF WE GOT TO THE SHELTER FIRST!!!!" Augustus cried losing his temper

"I promised you safety from the storm that your friends are suffering from right now... In fact two are dead already!!!! Now anyway you'll be fighting an to the death battle GLADIATOR STYLE!!!" she cries

"Here are the pairs;

Zonia will be fighting Augustus

Rarity will be fighting Almeathea

And Torao...." she pauses "Torao gets to fight my annoying friend Sky."

You hear a panicked shuffle, and a loud crash accompanied by screaming.

"Yeah so, hear are the rules:" Joanna takes the microphone, the screaming still heard in the background "ONE Kill your partner and ONLY your partner, and TWO Have fun guys- and oh- may the odds be ever in your favor darlings!!!"

(Torao gets to fight Sky because he's never missed a task, he is in no danger)

You heard her, have at it!!!! Due in two Saturdays.
