Right as I start to feel Ember's emotions, I take over, knowing she needs a break. I blink slowly, trying to ground myself in the present moment. As I glance around at everyone, a sense of unease settles in the pit of my stomach. They all look so different now, each bearing the marks of time and experience.

"You did it?" Diana asks, curiosity laced in every word.

"Oh sorry, Ember is no longer available." I smirk, my eyes slowly doing a once-over on everyone.

"Oooookay," Hunter says while he claps his hands together once. "Bipolar much." He takes in a sharp breath. Within seconds, Ashley is on the ground laughing.

"Bruh, shut the fuck up, you're gonna get your head exploded by Ember because she's emotionally unstable," Leyla whispers the last part.

"Helloooo, standing right here, like 10 feet in front of you." I say, snapping them out of their conversation.

"Please don't blow our heads off." Hunter says, sending me puppy dog eyes. "I have to turn more girls gay." Ashley starts choking on her laughter.

"I mean you haven't turned Ashley gay yet." Lelya remark's, shrugging. "Oh right, I'm supposed to be begging for my life." She remarks, glancing back at me, sending me puppy dog eyes. "Please don't blow our heads off, we need more gay people in the world."

"Heyyy Ember," I say in a singing voice. "Wanna pop some heads!?" I question with a cheery voice.

Of courseeeee. She says in a cheery voice.

"Okay, here you go." I pretend to give my control over, fear crosses their eyes, I refraim from smiling, before I jump at them. "BOOO BITCHES!" I scream, they all jump back.

"Still the same old Emma," Hunter says while laughing nervously. "I'm having flash backs from digging your grave."

"Huh!?" Both Ashley and Aelin at the same time, Hunter rubs the back of his neck nervously.

"Uhhh, a little help here?" He glances over at me, I smile sweetly, nodding.

"They killed me!" I say throwing my hands up. "First day we met, we were just just having drinks, and they ate me........" There's a long silence. "But like...Oh lord... Not like that. I mean I wouldn't mind, but like A-" I cut myself off. "But like not like that......." I glance around, hoping they didn't notice my slip up. "Fuck me."

I bet Aelin would. Look at the way she looks at you. Ember remarks, my eyes go wide.

"I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!" Hunter raises his hand in the air.

"Huh?" I ask, sending him a point-blank look. "I think you just turned me gayer... If that was even possible. The genuine thought of your cock makes me want to throw up."

"Damn you don't gotta be so rude about it, I'm not that repulsive," Hunter says while putting his hand over his heart like I wounded him.

"Don't worry, I like your dick," Ashley remarks, everyone looks over at her, silence thick in the air as if there was something I didn't know about it. Huh? Interesting. A new deveplment.
