Hey guys! So this is the Hunger Games thingy I wrote. The character is called Bläu Odair and she is 16 from District 4. Enjoy!
I felt my self rising up in the tube. I could feel the panic kicking in now, realizing that this may be the last thing I see of the outside world for the rest of my life. I have to stop, and bring myself together. I would be on national TV in a moment and I needed to look calm, ready and prepared to kill. I take a deep breath and remind myself that I am strong, and I will get home alive. Suddenly daylight seeps its way into my eyes and I am momentarily blinded. I blink as hard as I can and try and take in my surroundings. I am in the middle of what seems like a deserted wasteland but it has forest in a sort of triangle shape around the outsides. My fellow careers stand opposite me. I see my other district four tribute a nod in there direction. "ladies and gentlemen let the 97th Hunger Games begin!" booms a voice from God knows where. I know from watching the sadistic games my whole life that we now have 60 seconds to wait before running towards the cornucopia and collecting food / weapons / anything that we think to be helpful in all hell we are about to face. Only 20 seconds remain. I now please myself ready to run, giving a curt nod to the careers. 10 more seconds. I can feel the blood rushing to my head and then BAM and now all I see are figures hurtling towards the giant horn beside me. I sprint as fast as I can, jumping over sleeping bags and rolled up blankets so that I can get to the real treasure inside the cornucopia. I grabbed a set of knives right in front of me. I am the first to arrive. I put the knife behind my ear and fling it at the boy running towards me. He is small and weak, a frail 13 year old and it just chips his shoulder. The careers are now along side me. The boy from District 1 is rooting around in the back of the cornucopia. He throws me a sword and me and the district 3 girl stand on guard. The large district 12 girl comes running towards us. My fellow guard throws an axe and it hits her directly in the kneecap. she screams in pain and writhes around on the floor in a pool of blood. The other tributes scamper off into the forest. "what do you think is in there?" asks the boy from District 1. "Something poisonous probably" I say as I find a small bottle of antivenom by my left foot. We decide to stay in the Cornucopia and make camp here. "now the only things they have to help him is what sponsores send them and what they had managed to scrabble away from here" remarkes the girl from District 3. I see what I can find in the Cornucopia and turn to watch the still corpes of the girl from District 12. I find a barrel of fresh water, 3 laser guns, multiple night vision goggles, a tent, a silver bow and a set of arrows, a basket of apples, Healing cream, a set of Pork lashings and a fire starting kit. My fellow careers have found about the same amount of things. We take some sleeping bags and mark territory. The two tributes from District 3 take some axes and go to the outskirts of the forest to get fire wood. We talked on about whether that would be a water source with in the forest and who would kill who. We make a wall around the cornacopia out of tents and put two people on guard for the night (District 4 and district 1). We cook some rabbit we found in the cornucopia and settle for the night.
