"Let the One Hundred and Twenty Fifth Annual Hunger Games Begin!"
Sophie's P.O.V.
After that was announced, I took off running. I was the first one to reach the tools. I quickly got a bow and grabbed some arrows. The next one to reach the items was the girl from Three. She took a knife and swung at me. I ducked, backing away. The girl swiped at me, again. I ran up to her and shoved her, turning around right after.
I needed to get out of here, fast! I started to climb a tree. The boy from Six snuck up behind the girl from Three, and threw the dagger at her. Not wanting to look anymore, I started to hop from tree to tree, heading North. I kept going until the beach was no longer in sight. Then there was an explosion.
Maya's P.O.V.
I ran towards the cornucopia, grabbing some duel blades. The capitol made these special. They were all different sizes yet they each had a mockingjay embedded onto them. Obviously Katniss made these.
After defying the Capitol, she was made an Avox and obviously had to make weapons for every games.
I flung myself around, took my smallest blade, and stabbed it into the girl from 7.
I heard 4 cannons go off, one after another. I looked around, and saw that the bodies of the girls from 3 and 7 and the boy from 2 were sprawled out on the ground, waiting to be lifted by the hovercraft to go home for a funeral service.
Forget that. I need to continue. I flinch, as I turn around, I notice that the male tributes from 8 and 11 and the female tributes from 5 and 9 had formed a group.
I dug through all of the weapons quickly. I found a time bomb I set it for 30 seconds and started running. As I was starting to run however, the boy from 8 hit my thigh. I flinched but kept dragging myself east.
When I reached safety, well kind of, I watched as the bomb exploded. 2 more cannons blew.
That was 6 tributes within about 1 hour. Or so I think.
I started off into the east, but soon bump into another tribute. He had no weapons and he ran off. I was standing still trying to process all that has just happened.
And then I fall to my knees as my thigh wound strikes me. I find some moist soil and some moss nearby. I clump the moss onto my wound.
Wait. Moist sand... Water.
I drag myself and find a beautiful lake. I watch as a small deer drinks from the waters.
It collapses. It dies.
The water here is poisonous.
Bryn's P.O.V.
I ran toward the Cornucopia, my heart beating.
I picked up a sword, then suddenly I heard a whoosh as a knife whistled by my ears. the girl from Two was going for me. She threw another knife, right for my head, and I ducked. Behind me was a loud thud. A scream of anger ringed in my ears, followed by a scream "NOOOO! "Callum!" It was the boy from Two that was killed. 4 cannons exploded. I picked a random pack and ran away, far west, far from the middle of a bloody explosion.
Terra's P.O.V.
I ran to the center and grabbed a pack of food and a small dagger and stabbed it in the chest of the boy from 6. His eyes widen in shock and collapsed. Four cannons blasted. And I tried to run away but the girl from Nine stabbed my knee. I stabbed her in the heart. As I got to the edge of the north sector, the Cornucopia blew up and I ran.
