It was absolutely nerve-racking watching my sister almost get killed. Unfortunately for Larise, no one devised an escaping plan for her like Sierra did with Draco. I could've actually lost my twin sister. I sat on the couch, wrapped in a bunch of blankets and comforters, with a bucket of popcorn.

Why the popcorn?

If you forget the fact that that they've been put in an arena to die, the drama is hilarious. And the secret relationships! Who would've ever thought the guy from One was attracted to the boy from Five? And when Karina pulled that tantrum because her boyfriend died, I died from laughter.

It's like a nation wide reality show you see once a year. Beth and Mikayla agreed to come over yesturday to watch Day Five with me. Ironically, the Victors number was five. Maybe they were doing some weird backwards counting. Who knows?

Right now it was about one in the afternoon, yet Beth and Mikayla were a no show. I kept shaking off the bad feeling I had about their disappearances, but I knew the feeling meant something. After after a brief commercial that featured the tributes left and what to send in for sponsors, the program returned, and I munched on my popcorn a little bit more slowly.

I'm too lazy to get up and make another bucket anyway.

So far, no one had sent in anything to the tributes, probably because they didn't need it. Besides the dead tributes, everyone was pretty good. Well, the two boys at the bottom of the mountain the rest of the tributes were at, were going to starve to death soon, but yeah, that's all.

It infuriates at me when the Capitol stops the Games at points where the drama is rising, and you want to know what happens next, just because they want to show you some cheap propaganda. After Sierra's little "And this is why we don't wing it Larise" quote (I cracked up at that after I got over the shock of my sister almost drowning) the Capitol went off for their advertisement.

Finally, the show returned, and the drama I'd been waiting for was going to happen.

Okay, call me a fanboy, who doesn't like dramatic reality shows?

Don't lie to me. You have watched one once or twice.

What did you say? Reality shows are for people with no lives?

No, they are for people who want to laugh at others' lifes. Anyway, back to the scheduled programming...

"Well I'm sorry! I'm a lumberjack, not a teenage genius alright? I don't make plans, I go into action! Who has the time to make plans when someone is trying to hunt you down and murder you?!" Larise screamed back at Sierra.

The girl from Three gave her a flat look, complete with narrowed eyes, and the ever so pleasant scowl. "Oh thank you for reminding me were here to die Larise. Because I haven't forgotten that little detail at all!"

Meanwhile, Karina and MacKenzie were climbing out of the pond. Karina bore a guarded expression, but her eyes were hardened with anger and frustration. MacKenzie held his trademark bored expression and didn't seem to agitated by their failed attempt to eliminate the two girls.

Queenie and Raina peaked out of their hiding place in a rose bush, but Jack was no where to be seen.

"We tried your idea Raina, now we're trying mine!" Karina hollered, unsheathing her sword. Sierra and Larise glanced at Karina and then glanced at eachother before they stood up and brought out their weapons.
