~ The 99th Hunger Games ~ (UNDER EDITING)

Chapter 16 - Day 4

Animal Anikin's P.O.V - District 1

I lay awake simply because I can't get to sleep. I feel dizzy and everything seems fuzzy. Destinee is defiantly asleep because I can hear her breathing softly as she lies peacefully on top of me. It feels like I'm slipping out of consciousness. That's when I realise something, I feel no pain, I can't feel my shoulder throbbing like it once was half an hour ago. I look down at my shoulder, which is looking worse than it previously did.

Am I dying? I think to myself. Suddenly everything blacks out.

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

The morning sun beams through the wooden frame where a window once was. It's still vaguely dark outside but it's light enough to see clearly. Cheetah looks as if she has just woken up, like myself. Cheetah reaches for her water bottle and goes to take a drink, but then stops.

"What is it?" I ask.

"It's empty..." She responds. "That's weird, I got it yesterday."

"It's ok, there's a stream behind here, let's refill all our water bottles." I say. We make our way to stream behind the village.

BOOM!

I jump at the sound of the cannon, it was so sudden. "That scared me." I tell Cheetah.

She scoffs. "It's just another sound now. I remember hearing the first cannon, it made me sick." A minute later the screaming starts, a high pitched girl's scream, a sound of loss, pain and torture.

"Oh my god." I say. "Who is that?"

"Well it's a girl's scream so it's either Climate or Destinee."

We stare at the mountain where the screaming is come from as if the face of our screeching mistress will suddenly appear in the trees. I hear a thud next to me and turn around to see Cheetah lying on the grounds, Thunder on top of her. Before I even have a chance to scream he jams his dagger into her stomach. She let's out a blood curdling scream that overpowers the screams that we heard just minutes ago.

"No!" I scream.

BOOM!

Thunder turns to face me, dagger in hand and wipes Cheetahs blood from his neck. Which had sprayed all over him during the murder. "You're next 5." He grins at me. I back away from him hoping I'll get my chance to escape, although I back into a tree, I now have now way of escaping without turning my back on him, and that's a very bad idea. Suddenly someone charges out of the buses and stabs Thunder in the stomach. Thunder fights back by kneeing the person in the Stomach. He groans and punches Thunder in the face. It takes a few seconds to regroup before realising who the person is that had tackled Thunder, it was Vare.

"Run." He says to me before taking another swing-to-the-face from Thunder. I obey and run in the opposite direction as fast as my legs will carry me. When I'm sure I am far enough away for them not to come after me I climb the closest tree a take a sip of water. All I have now is 2 bottles of water and my blowdart with one dart. I breath heavily and continue sipping water. When I'm finally settled I hear the familiar sound of the cannon to signal either Vare or Thunder's death.

BOOM!

Sharkie Mason's P.O.V - District 7

It's been a slow day for me, I've managed to stay out of trouble apart for the piranhas that almost bit my foot off when I tried to go spear fishing this morning. I've heard three cannons and I have no idea who's they were. I heard Destinee screaming from the hotel early this morning, I know it was her cause I saw her go in there last night. I'm not sure why she was screaming but neither her or Animal have exited the building all day so I'm guessing they may be dead. Suddenly people are dying off fast, and I'm sort of worried I'll be next, I'm keeping low profile and hopefully I'll come out on top. It's getting late so I decide i'll head into the forest to stay safe from the 'corpses'. I pack up my stuff from the beach and begin my hike up the mountain.

After about an hour I decide that I should take a break, I sit on a nearby rock and take an apple from my pack. I hear the crunch as I take a big bite. After sitting in silence for a few minutes, crunching on my apple, I see something fluffy stuffing around in one of the nearby bushes. I take a closer look at what appears to be a rabbit, I debate whether to kill it for food or not. Unexpectedly, the rabbit turns to look at me with it's deep red eyes, it hisses at me and leaps at my face. Possessed evil bunny rabbits? I think to myself. I roll around on the floor trying to pry the furry creature off my face. I hear screaming but it takes me a few moments to realise it's mine. The rabbit finally releases it's claws and I'm able to throw it off my face. Even when it's gone I continue to scream. I can feel the scratches and bites all over my face, and when I pull my hands away they are covered in blood, it feels as if someone has poured acid over my face. When I finally regain my consciousness I sit up, only to find several evil rabbits gathered at my feet, they attack me, clawing away at my face, I scream in agony as they suck the life out of me. Everything begins to fade, the noises, the pain, the weight of my body.

BOOM!

I look down at my dead body, is this even possible? I'm dead. I look around, everyone is here, everyone. All the dead tributes. 'We have another one.' Says Teddy. Felicia looks at me and mouths 'I'm sorry.' I nod. 'Four left, were almost to the end.' Says Animal.

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

The sky lights up and the seal appears in the sky, I had just witnessed maniacal rabbits tear Sharkie's body apart, and the hover craft had come and collected him. The music plays and the faces begin to appear. The first is Animal Anikin, District 1. He must of been the first cannon this morning. Next is Vare Marin, District 2. This makes me sad, I was hoping Thunder would of died since Vare died to save me. The faces continue, no more surprise me. Sharkie Mason, District 7. Cheetah Chestnut, District 9. The sky returns to its state of darkness with few stars scattered around the place. I go over who is left. Thunder, Destinee, Climate and myself. I remembered that Thunder is severely injured, I know he was at least stabled in the stomach, it could be much worse though. So much has happened today, and the whole thing could be over tomorrow. I decide to get some sleep before the next disaster occurs.
