73rd hunger games {finnicks sister}

10

Today I go in to the arena. I'm woken up by my stylists coming in to the room and getting me ready. A warm shower, a big breakfast, and clean basic clothes. All of which will probably be my lasts. I'm then taken to the roof along with all the other tributes and board the hovercraft. They inject us all with trackers which was very painful. I look over to glow and the rest of the careers and give them a nod. We've already decided that we will be allies and have made a game plan.
The hovercraft slowly lowers and we are all escorted out and in to separate rooms. I'm standing about taking in my last final moments of peaceful silence.
The doors open and Johnston walks in and embraces me in a long hug. We work in silence as he sits me down and brings my wavy hair in to a high ponytail. As he finished the outfits are delivered. The outfit consisted of thermal under layers, a jumper, waterproof trousers, snow boots and a winter jacket. Something tells me that we're not going to the beach. Johnston helps me change in to the outfit before helping me on to the metal plate before a glass cylinder cuts off any last words. He gives me one short wave before the plate starts to rise. I'm in darkness for a few seconds before my eyesight is filled with white.

Snow

The arena was bitterly cold and filled with snow, not a single tree to start a fire with in sight. I look to see who is around me. Luckily I'm placed next to Glow. We send each other a nod and get ready to pounce. The canon goes off and the hunger games begin.

I sprint towards the cornucopia alongside other tributes. Thankfully I'm a fast runner so I'm one of the first there. Louis and serina are already there so we work together to grab as much as we can. I grab 10 knives and shove half of them inside a rucksack. As I go to grab a thermal blanket I come face to face with the boy from district 12. I quickly grab my knife and throw it straight at him and it lands directly in his heart.
A canon goes off.
I have no time to let emotions deep through so I quickly grab the blanket and help the other careers get rid of other tributes. The girl from 8 runs straight at me and jumps on my back. She gets in a couple of punches before I push her over and stave her in the heart.
A quick death and another canon.
I get up as the boy from 5 pulls my hair. I swing my elbow back and hear a sickening crack as it connects with his nose. His grip loosens as I grab his arm and twist it behind his back before slitting his neck and dropping the body into the white snow, watching as it starts to turn pink.
Another canon.
I take a moment to look up and familiarise myself with my surrounding. We're in a snowy setting, with no trees or wildlife and only broken buildings that can't even supply shelter. I look around for the rest of the careers as we seem to be very spaced out. No one else surrounds the cornucopia apart from us. We all walk towards the mouth of the metal building to see what's been left. We place everything we have in the middle but I still keep two knives hidden in my boots.

"How are we going to keep warm?" Serina asks.

"Use the cornucopia for shelter as no other buildings seem to have a roof. There's no trees to keep a fire so we need to keep close and use the blankets." I really emotionlessly.

"What about water and food?" She continues.

"Eat the snow to keep hydrated and we'll worry about food. No doubt the game makers will send a pile of mutants that we can kill and make do with."

"Let's spread out and set up."

We unbox to see what we have. 7 blankets, 7 packets of energy biscuits, wire, rope, 4 flashlights, 12 knives, 3 swords, a bow and a sheath of arrows. We set the two spare blankets down on the ground and each get a blanket each whilst we sit and calm down after the traumatic bloodbath.

The capitals anthem blares throughout the arena as we make our way to the mouth of the cornucopia. Looking to the sky we see the names and pictures of the fallen tributes.
