Round Two:

Nathan's POV:

Round two. We had made it to round two, and Yandra was still intact.  I was totally prepared for round two, seeing as how the rules were that you had to choose two teammates to move on to the next round. I knew that the team would vote for us; we were the best fighters on our team.  Yandra cartwheeled over to the rest area and sat down, waiting for round two to start.

A few moments later, the loudspeaker sounded. "Team FNKY and team SHIP, please report to the arena."

This was it. The moment we all had been waiting for: Round two. Yandra cheered and did a backflip, and I smiled. 

               We all walked outside and to the arena, where two Spinosaurs were waiting for us.  They both wore the same outfit, and I thought  they may have been twins. Same we had to kill one in order to move on to the next round... Not.

"Another Spinosaur..." The first one said.  "Don't we have to finish him, Sonya?"

             Sonya smirked. "It's a shame, Harley. He's cute..."

            Yandra growled lowly, but I winked at her.  She seemed to let go of her anger after that. I looked back at Sonya and Harley only to realize that the march had started a minute too late.

             Sonya hit me with a metal pole, and Harley tripped Yandra. Both girls stood up, glaring at each other. I could tell that they were about to go to war with each other from the hatred burning in each of their eyes.

Sonya kicked me into a wall and smirked. I knew that they were going to win this fight, but we would win the finals.  I knew we would. 

                         Yandra's POV:

               I loathed Hailey more than words could ever describe.  She had several traits to describe her: Annoying, hateful, rude, and sarcastic.  I swear the Indominus would be annoyed by her, and that's just from her personality.  I couldn't imagine that Sonya girl living with her for a single day.  I would've been dead by the first minute. 

                 I pulled my shotgun out and cocked it, eager to finish this fight.  Hailey raised an eyebrow, but didn't back away.

"You think that a shotgun would defeat me?!" She smirked. "I've seen and felt much worse, Gallimimus."

"Well, you're about to feel a whole lot worse..." I said, looking back at Nathan.

He kicked Sonya in the back and threw her at Hailey, and both girls then collided and fell down into a pit of spikes. I heard a loud slicing sound at the bottom to indicate that we had won the fight.

But even I felt sorry for both of the twins. I mean, they died by being pierced to death at the bottom of a pit by sharp spikes, and just thinking about it made me scared.  I honestly had no clue why they were doing this other than for entertainment.  That's one of the scariest things ever: Not knowing what will come in the future.  I can only hope that we win whatever this fight is.  She said it was like the Hunger Games, but I didn't really see that.  Maybe it was the part where we fight to the death, or maybe when we were sent here by train? Meh. I have no clue.

Indigo's POV:

I was now standing in the arena, prepared to fight whoever was going to try and defeat me or Rexy.

You see, the team thought that if we spent some time together, then we would be good friends. Wrong. We would never be friends after what she did to my sister. I couldn't even picture me and Rexy being friends together like the others do. I can't, and I won't. Too annoyed to. 

            "Whelp, now we're fighting in round two." Rexy said, stretching her arms. 

             "Yep..." I muttered, looking over at the opposite side of the arena.  They should have been here by now.  I wonder what was taking them so long.

"We now present team BIRE vs. team DROP." The loudspeaker announced. 

              Two girls came into view, and I imminently recognized them as a Triceratops and an Apatosaurus.  Two herbivores.  Not that bad of a team to fight against, seeing as how herbivores wouldn't really harm us from being so nice...

            But I then remembered Yandra and how psychotic she was being, and I kept my mouth firmly shut. 

            "Two herbivores?!" Rexy laughed.  "They must be stupider than I thought to sent two herbivores against two carnivores."

The Triceratops smirked and pulled out a huge scythe, making Rexy jump. The Apatosaurus pulled out a small revolver, and I stepped back as well. Both girls now were deadlier that we had thought possible, and we were screwed beyond belief.

"Let the battle begin!" The man canned over the loudspeaker.

As soon as those words were spoken, the girl's launched into action. They were moving so fast that I could barely keep up with them until I felt one of them kick me in the back. 

            "Crap balls!" Rexy yelped, kicked into a wall.  I have to admit, I snickered at the thought of that.  Crap balls. 

              "Rexy, this isn't time for jokes!" I called over to her as I finally kicked the Triceratops away from me.  "We need to fight them and go on to the finals!"

                "I know that!  I was just-!  Oh, forget it!" She yelled back, uppercutting the apatosaurus.  "Just keep fighting!"

                 Will do.  It was honestly too easy.  They had used all of their energy during the beginning of the fight, and that gave us he perfect opportunity to show our moves off.  To make a long story short, see you next fall, girls.  Hope your death was quick and painless, and that you won't have to suffer painfully and slowly. 

                "Well..." Rexy began.  "That happened."

              "Yeah..." I said, looking down into the pit.  "That did."

              She looked at me.  "Let's call in a truce."

             We shook hands.  "Alright."

                   The Woman's POV:

             I wasn't surprised at all that both teams had won.  As a matter of fact, I was counting on it for the final fight of friends.

"Well, Cinder-" Victor began.

"What?" I responded, not wanting to hear a word from him after he said my name. 

                "Who were the fighters going to be again?"

                 I smirked, looking back at the iPad.  Nobody had a single idea of what I was planning to happen.  If all went well, then the world as people knew it would be over.  If it went wack, then the island would be no more.  Either way, I was going to rule out of fear and power.  I smirked and looked at the four remaining teams who were sleeping for the night.  They had little idea of what was going to come later on tomorrow, especially the two girls.  They had no clue.  After the fight, she would have to work for me out of fear...

                  Echo's POV:

             I had disturbing nightmares of my dead sisters that night.  I couldn't describe them, so I could only say that they were disturbingly awful.  I also couldn't stop having the feeling that something terrible was about to happen, and I just didn't know it yet.  I looked out at he rising sun as a slight realization hit me: Today was the final round.  I smiled, knowing that I decently would win the fight if I was chosen by ACU.  I would win, and I'd finish anyone who I was going to fight.
