Zach's POV
"Zach you still here?" I hear Ariel say.

"Yea. I'm right here," I say.

She nods. Weston is sitting on both of our laps. Like he's our kid and we're the parents.

*boom* we hear. The cannon. Someone died.

Ariel slightly shakes Weston awake. "Zach?" He asks. I nod.
-
We start walking for a while. I wrapped Weston's arm in a leaf. Okay, either Maci, Mackenzie, or Brennen died.

I hope it's Maci. Mackenzie's too young and I know Brennen too well.

"Stop" Weston whispers.

We both stop. Brennen is in the woods. "Walk the other way," Ariel whispers.

We start bolting to somewhere where Brennen wasn't.

"Anybody else like really thirsty?" Weston asks.

"Yea," Zach and I say. We walk deeper into the forest.

My mouth now feels really dry.

*bung bing boo, bung bing boo*

We all turn our heads to see a parachute.

Sponsors.

Ariel grabs it and we open it. A note read "Very impressive musical Ariel, here, take this spile."

We all smile. We've all seen the Hunger Games so we know what a spile is.

I bang it into a tree. I lick my dry lips, hoping for water soon. Seconds later water drips down the spile.

We all shove and stuff for the water but we let Ariel go first. When she's done I knock Weston out of the way.

Moisture fills my top and bottom lips. It's not the coldest water but it's water. The water slips between my mouth and fills my mouth up with water. I swallow. I go in for more, right when I try, Weston pushes me.

"Hey dude!" I say laughing.

Maci's POV
I hide my face in my knees. I'm in a cave in the desert. I'm running out of water though.

I killed Mackenzie Ziegler.

I killed Mackenzie Ziegler.

I'll never forgive myself.

I start sobbing. I'm all alone! I'm going to die!

The sun starts to set and they show the people who died today.

Only one. And it was my fault.

I'm afraid I'll never wake up if I sleep. So I'm going to try and explore.

I pack my backpack before heading out.

It's hot and dry here but I as move closer to the forest it starts to cool down.

I keep moving.

There they are.

Two people are asleep on the ground. One person's back is against the tree watching.

I'm going to kill that watcher.

It's a suicide mission but I need to win. And I'll go anything.

I start walking very silently. I walk behind the trees and I grab my knife. The one I killed Mackenzie with.

I shake my head to shoo away the thoughts. I slowly walk towards the tree. I put my knife in ready position.

I put my arm out and I stab that person's arm. In and out, stab one, stab two, then move away.

I look behind me to see Bruhitszach chasing after me.

Shiz.

He tackles me and starts to punch me. I hear a cannon go off before I black out.
