15. red

firey

oh, for SPARKS sake, where are they!?
i know i shouldn't be here-i shouldn't be trying to look for them.

the light from my hair is the only thing keeping me going. i'm surrounded by nothing but darkness, and i'll bet right now that...thing...could take me any second.

i hear a slight giggle.

w...wait a second...

"hehe...haha..."

i stop in my tracks. my breath hitches as i recognize the laugh. i turn around suddenly-
"LEAFY!"

...nothing. just more trees and darkness. oh sparks, this is really getting to my head.

why, oh oxygen why, do you still have a damn grudge against her.

i sigh in relief as i turn back around, planning to trudge along further. that is, until i was face-to-face with a girl i knew too well. the red hair caught my eye first-what was up with her? trying to be evil leafy or something?

"y-you! leafy, where are the rest of my teammates!?" i hissed at her. i hate her so much-happily wandering off with coiny doing who knows what, and here i am, watching my teammates disappear one by one-she could've been taken too!

i don't-i want-ugh, i don't know if i want leafy to get hurt or not. i still care about her.

leafy looked at me through her one eye and grinned. "leafy...? i don't know a leafy. i'm not leafy," she said slowly, before backing away, opening her arms as a sort of cue. six more people appeared at her side-i recognized them all. the losers.

simultaneously, one of everyone's eyes flashed a bright red before it announced,

"i'm rose. i bet you know a thing or two about roses, don't you, firey?"

my eyes flicker from one loser to another. each one had a rose attached to them.
what. happened.
what the HELL did you do to them.

rose snaps me out of my racing thoughts. "the red of a rose can represent love, it can represent passion..."

the people standing by its side glare at me, poised to attack me any second. i start backing away slowly, in the hopes they wouldn't notice the fear all over my face.

"...but do you know what else it can represent?"

rose cracks a slight smile at me.
oh no.

"blood."

i immediately whip myself around and start sprinting in the other direction.
this is a totally unfair fight! if any one of them gets me, i'm doomed!

in the heat of the action, i completely forgot that needle was one of the fastest runners here.

i felt a hand grasp my hood viciously, and i was instantly pulled back. not even a few seconds later, i'm thrown on the ground and pummeled by the hands of my teammates. blow after blow landed, and the vines that covered them made it feel like i was being hit by brass knuckles. i could feel myself bleeding everywhere, dozens of tiny punctures being made in my skin.
they made it very clear they wanted to destroy me.
they made it very clear they wanted me dead.

i kicked off contestant after contestant, but they weren't phased at all-and they continued to pounce on me. i gasped desperately for air, blood dribbling down from my mouth. loser reached for my head, but snapped back immediately. he hissed as he shook his hand vigorously, putting out the flame.

wait a second...
GAH! I CAN FIGHT BACK-I'M SO STUPID!

in the midst of the thrashing, i managed to light one of my hands on fire. multiple hands tried to restrain me, but i was able to reach out to cake's rose. he hissed and jumped back, his rose going up in flames instantly.

...

"OH MY BAKERY! GET OFF OF FIREY!!"
