Chapter 13 - The Bloodbath and Day 1

Libby Big's P.O.V - District 5

My stylist dresses me in leggings and a short sleeve top made of swimsuit material. She gives me a waterproof jacket as well. The outfit isn't very warm so I'm guessing the arena isn't snow. "Sixty seconds." Says a voice. I step into my tube, heart beating a million miles a minute. When the minute is up my tube closes and begins rising. After a few minutes the darkness starts to disappear and I can smell the fresh mountain air. When I first enter the arena, I am blinded by the light. When I regain my sight I see that we are on a hill, although it's more of a mountain. We are in a large grass opening and surrounding the clearing is a few trees. We are pretty high up so the clouds are metres above us. It seems as though the forest gets thicker further down the hill. At the bottom of the hill on my right, I can see a beach, and to my left, a village. The village is where I want to be. The countdown is at thirty so I decide to focus. To my right is Kermit, and to my left is Climate. The clock is on ten now and I begin the countdown in my head. Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.

GONG!

I leap forwards and grab a backpack a few metres in front of me, I see that a few metres to my left, Mickey has done the same. I hear a maniacal scream to my right, I turn to see Climate decapitating Kermit. "No!" I scream. I almost run over to kill Climate but Mickey holds me back.

"We have to go!" Yells Mickey. We find Dust and set off towards the village, I'm not sure where Silver is, we couldn't see him anywhere, so let's hope we find him later. The bloodbath is really getting gruesome as we leave. I hear screaming and yelling behind me. I don't even look back.

Cheetah Chestnut's P.O.V - District 9

I run straight for the middle of the cornucopia where all the good stuff is. I'm surprised when I'm the only one here. I grab the best sword I can find and fling the strap over my shoulder. I grab two large backpacks, another sleeping bag, just to be safe, and nunchucks for Rocky. When I turn around I am confronted by Hazel, she holds her trident out in defence. I knock it out of her hand and slit her throat. I leave the trident as it looks like the only one and I don't want to be hunted down by Triton. I find Sonny and Rocky, Sonny has a backpack and a dagger and Rocky is fighting off Sharkie with a spear. Suddenly Sharkie turns and runs the other way, mid fight. Rocky goes to follow him but I stop him.

"Rocky, we have to go." I say. I hand him his Nunchucks and one of the backpacks. We run north. When we are almost out of the clearing Silk jumps out of nowhere. We all freeze, she has nothing so she isn't a threat for now. She darts around us and disappears down the side of the hill to her right, by herself. I turn back to the cornucopia for a split second, as I do I see the arrow flying through the air directly towards Sonny's head.

"Sonny!" I scream. Then before I can say anymore, Rocky has leaped in front of her. The arrow through his heart.

"Rocky!" Sonny screams. "Why did you do that for me?" She asks.

"One of you guys have to win." He says quietly, as he speaks I can see his bloodstained teeth. Then he lies still, dead.

"No!" Screams Sonny. Out of the corner of my eye I see Sasha sitting on top of the cornucopia, loading another arrow.

"We have to go, now!" I scream, and we make our way to the treeline and disappear down the side of the hill.

Missy Mellow's P.O.V - District 11

I wait for Destinee's return. She has gone into the cornucopia in search of her crossbow. Animal and I wait at the tree line, hidden. I watch the fight from safety. I see one of Ami's throwing knives impale into Stella's stomach. Triton screams a bloodcurdling scream and charges towards Ami with his trident in hand. It pierces through her neck and she drops to the ground, dead. "Let's go, now." Says Destinee, her new crossbow in hand. We make our way down the hill, towards the beach.
