I wake up. At least I can see the sun. I see someone has laid out my uniform, so I get it on. Then I see my pin. I put it over my heart. I also notice a medal, and a note. I read the note. It says,
ԹӀҽɑՏҽ ʍҽҽԵ ɑԵ Եհҽ íղԵҽɾѵíҽա ՏԵɑցҽ! í աíӀӀ հօԹҽ վօմ հɑѵҽ վօմɾ մղíƒօɾʍ օղ ɑղժ ҍɾíղց վօմɾ ʍҽժɑӀ.

That's the guy that did the interviews. Maybe they are giving us the medals?
I walk towards the stage and line up behind Lucy. A guy comes and collects our medals. He says, we will get them on the stage. Than why where they on our beds?
I give it to the man anyway.
" Please give a warm welcome to Coby,Dustin, Lucy and Alice!" It's Mr. Satoshi. We walk on when he says our names. The crowd goes crazy when I go on. I look back at my hand. It looks like the tracking device and,
" Syrup!" Whispers Lucy.
Why would they want us to die? And then regenerate us? I don't know, but it will soon be answered.
I'm not paying much attention to the speeches. Then they call up Coby for a speech. Then Dustin. After him it's Lucy. Was I meant to prepare a speech? I'll just say stuff as I go.
" Alice!" The crowd cheers as I go to the lectern.
" Hi," a loud squeak goes through the speakers. I step back.
" Um.. I just want to thank the government for setting up these games."
" But they killed you friends!" A guy yells from the crowd. One of the guards shoot him.
" No! They didn't!" I now have everyone's attention.
" They have this special syrup that makes everyone live, that's why no one has ever got the body's of there loved ones." I look over to Taeko. He is stunned. I keep talking about the syrup and how they treat us in city 5. I surprise a lot of people. But soon I'm done. I can see the guards now wan for eject the syrup from my arm. I walk down from the lectern.
" Well thank you for those stories Alice." It's Akira Mamoko. I saw her once before the fights.
" Now let's congratulate Coby, Dustin, Lucy, and outgoing Alice." On our names we stand forward. Mr. Satoshi places the medal on us, and gives me an evil glare.
" To Our F.F.O.C WINNERS!" I try to move off the stage and run to my room, but I can't move. I try to talk to Lucy or anyone, but I'm frozen. Dustin walks next to me, by swapping with Lucy. Then he's stuck. We all are. I put us all in danger.
" FOR OUR 27th FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM WINNERS!" She points at us.
Wait, for our....

A gun shoot.
I turn my eyes towards Coby, who is now on the floor. Blood pouring out of his back. But the syrup..... Did they take it-
* ๒∆иб *
LUCY!!
Sugar. I need to move. I can see Dustin is sweating. I try to reach for hi-
* ๒∆иб *
Right in the spine.
" Alice! Look what you have done to them. Wanna join them?" Before I can answer
* ๒∆иб ๒∆иб ๒∆иб *
I'm down. I can move, but I'm about to die. Dustin reaches out his hand. I'm about to grab it when
* ๒∆иб *
Just before I die, I see guards holding back everyone. They want to help me! I close my eyes and say,
" Bye!" To Dustin.
The last thing I feel is the warm of Dustin hand in mine.

I open my eyes. Gulping for air.
" She's alive!" I hear someone say.
I'm in a hospital and nurses over nurses are standing over me. But one person stands out. One person I haven't seen for years....
" Mum!"
