  Priscilla made her way to the Academy, Gaius had finally been able to walk now well more are limp, he wanted to go with her since she let him know about her augment with Coriolanus, She saw him sitting at his seat, She ignored his stares as she walked past him sitting in her assigned seat, starting a conversation again with Clemensia as the beginning of day three of the Hunger Games

The nine remaining mentors sat, they now had assigned seats, that was new, Priscilla remained in the front row between Clemensia and now Festus, in the back was Coriolanus between Io and Urban then Pliny next to them, there was no movement in the arena, Only Jessup's body moved to Reapers morgue, but then someone appeared

"It's Wovey!Gaius look it's Wovey!She's alive!" Hilarius shouted in relief, Priscilla smiled at the boy before she saw the poor younger girl, she looked so skinny and scared clutching an...empty water bottle? Priscilla seemed confused Hilarius never sent her water

"Hold on Wovey!Food's in the way!" Said Hilarius as he sent some food

Lucky spoke claiming Wovey's strategy all along was for her to hide and let the field clear "And look at her! Here she is in the final nine!" Hilarius got so happy as he saw the drone flying towards her "There's her food and water now! All she has to do is grab it and get back in hiding!" Lucky spoke

Wovey seemed so lost but she grabbed the drone, she struggled to unscrew the cap, after a few gulps she sank back against the wall and sighed, A thin stream of silverish liquid tricked out of the side of her mouth and then she went still.

"She's dead." Lucky announced

"No! No she's not dead. She's just resting!" Hilarius spoken in denial, But wovey didn't move an inch. Priscilla turned to Coriolanus seeing his eyes were on her. Wovey didn't die because of natural causes she died because Coriolanus gave Lucy Gray the rat poison

After a long ten minutes, Hilarius gave in getting up from his chair and walking out head down ignoring the questions Lucky tried asking as he did to every mentor when they're tribute died, Priscilla turned and saw Gaius limping out the same way Hilarius walked.

It was then noon, Reaper came out of one of the tunnels he approached Wovey he frowned examining her before picking her up and left the food and water that sat there talking her to the Morgue

"You see?" Clemensia spoke "You see what i have to deal with? My tributes mentally unbalanced" She spoke

"I guess you're right. Sorry about earlier" Festus spoke, Coral and Mizzen went and ate the remaining food Wovey left before walking out, About an hour went by and there was nothing, Priscilla was in relief as they showed Treech with Lamina in one of the tunnels every once in a while, He seemed fine as Lamina slept next to him, Suddenly she saw Treech drifting off the sleep

"No no. Treech please stay awake" Priscilla whispered, But Treech let go of his axe in his hands meaning he fell asleep. Priscilla grew terrified as suddenly they heard movement approaching them

"And look at that both district three tributes approaching district seven!" Lucky spoke Priscilla and Pliny grew worried for their tributes, Teslee then grabbed her knife getting ready Circ pointed to Treech making her nod as Circ grabbed the drone next to them, but as he grabbed it he made a loud noise waking both tributes up, Teslee and Circ panicked everything happened so fast, before Treech can stand in front of Lamina ready to swing his axe Teslee stabbed Lamina in the gut, Before they both ran.

"Lamina!" Treech spoke he dropped before grabbing her in his arms, "Lamina i'm sorry, I'm so sorry" Treech whispered

"We both knew only one was gonna come out. and i was gonna make sure it was you," Lamina softly spoke as she smiled before grabbing the bandana she wore on her hair handing it to him "Give this to my father...you have to tell him i'm sorry for leaving him alone." She whispered Treech nodding as a tear slipped before he whipped it off "You have to win Treech. To be with her." Lamina spoke making him nod, Lamina then stopped breathing as she closed her eyes

"Rest lamina." He spoke, suddenly he heard movement coming towards him, Treech ate the last bit of food and drank the water fast gaining energy as he got his axe ready,

Pup then got up and stormed out. Priscilla let a tear fall but then fear took over her again as she saw Treech sprinting towards both district three tributes, The cameras then cut to Dr.Gaul where she was right in the room with them

"I'm sorry to cut these games but i came here to say, now Five Academy Students, Capital Citizens have lost their life in the rebel bombing. We must fight back. In response we've made something special for their children in the arena." Dr.Gaul spoke with a stern voice making the mentors worried

"Shall we tune in?" Lucky spoke, in the center of the arena there was nothing before Teslee and Circ came sprinting out, Circ slightly limping as Teslee helped him run, then Treech burst out the tunnel chasing after the district three tributes

Suddenly an oversized drone slaying into the arena, transporting the rainbow snake tank came in, the noise made Lucy Gray come out, Treech suddenly stopped looking at the tank

"no no run away," Priscilla whispered, Teslee and Circ paused too, Circ let go of Teslee and handed her the drones before walking closer. Suddenly the tank broke, Snakes shot out in all directions

In the front row, Clemensia jumped to her feet and let out a bloodcurdling screaming and fell to the floor causing Festus to almost all off his seat, As much as Priscilla needed to watch she bend down hugging her best friend

"They're not here. They're in the arena. You're safe." Priscilla whispered in her ear, As a shanked Clemensia hugged her, Priscilla looked up looking into the arena

Maybe it was Treech's lumber district background had given him some familiarity with snakes, As the second they fell he looked at them in horror before turning his heel sprinting for the stands, he bounced up the debris hill

The cameras then focused on Teslee and Circ, Teslee made it to one of the poles and managed to go up a few yards to safely, But Circ stumbled over a rusty old spear, Snakes overtook him biting him everywhere making him let out a scream, Circ struggled to breath as the poison of the snakes got to him before he died, Teslee stared in fear and sobbed in terror as she clutched into the pole

Lucy Gray ran into the stands and did her best to get the farthest she could, Repear had found a refuge on the roof press box, Then the cameras finally focused on Treech, he had now climbed onto the scoreboard sitting there highest out of the tributes safe, making Priscilla sigh in relief as she still had Clemensia in her arms

Suddenly a scream was heard from the tunnels, Mizzen ran out pretty fast for an injured leg, with a screaming coral followed a snake dangling from her arm, she tore it free but the. dozens of snakes charged to her the moment she hit the ground

"Run Mizzen!" She screamed before she closed her eyes laying dead, Mizzen leaped to the pole next to Tessle climbing up top, She cried out for help as the snakes started coming for her but he just shook his head, Reaper suddenly threw a rock distracting the snakes leaving Teslee, She then ran to a safer place

"These are muttations we've developed in our labs in the Capital, they easily outrun a human and have no problems climbing, they're designed to hunt humans" Dr.Gaul spoke giving a bow before walking out, Clemensia then let go of Priscilla gave her a smile before walking out in fear.

Only five tributes left. Priscilla thought she needed Treech to win.
