Running from fire

(Just so ya know I told you before that I wasn't going to be able to post.. Now..This post may not work too well considering a few things but meh.)

"Hunter was a mess when we left him." I stated and then looked up at the sky. "As much as I want and pray for Nathan to win..In the long run I kind of know that it's better if I don't see him get killed off and it'd mean I wouldn't have to be faced in the end with him not knowing what to do but that's my opinion. I want to see him though." I admitted.

"Looks like someone brought the wrong person to the games with them" I say, smirking at Estrella. The fact that there were so many cases of romance in the games was astounding, you'd think people would be less concerned with someone they like when compared to survival. This was the thing that caused the downfall of District 6 in the last games.

I looked over at Flint, "No one volunteered for either us." I say shrugging. "Things happen for a reason so I don't care too much and going home would be nice..Even though I'd be alone I have some other friends and family back home waiting for me return." I say smirking. "It wont be long though..Not long at all."

"Seems like a lot of confidence" I say, "But lets do a quick headcount here" I quickly sum up the remaining tributes. "We have you, fairly short, with only a bow and arrow for defense. Then me, with two swords, and much bigger than you" I say, pointing out the immediate threats that were posed to her. "then in the dungeons we have your cutie pie Nathan, who is a decent size and probably has a spear or sword, against Hunter, who is about my size and has multiple spears." I say. "Which part of this gives you hope?" I ask, smiling, the response would be interesting.

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sat May 26, 2012 8:47 pm

I grinned at him, "I don't only have a bow and arrow, I have my pickaxe and I have resources of the arena." I say and of course I had other plans in mind but I wasn't going to lay out my map of ideas to Flint. It wasn't practical. I just laughed at him when he mentioned how I figured I could pull out alive, I shook my head and kept laughing then finished. "Oh I'd tell you but then that'd lower my chances at going home..And I don't want that." I say and grin. "What makes you so sure you could beat any of us? You don't know if we're holding back." I say and then look around being aware of my surroundings.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sat May 26, 2012 8:57 pm

I smile and chuckle lightly. "What makes you think I'm sure of victory?" I ask, she seemed to think she knew me off by heart just because I was a career. "I'm just very confident in my ability to win".

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:09 pm

I shrugged, "Almost the same thing, if you think about it." I say and then keep looking around for a damn tribute to come by. I was tired of waiting and wanted the games to be over. Even if I died I wanted them to be over but I wanted to win but you never knew what came around the corner.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:16 pm

I look back at the giant crater that now occupied most of the Courtyard, an odd mixture of broken trees, stone, dirt and other assorted nature. All squished into one nice kill zone. That would be the place for the Final Three to die. Flint began devising his plan, carefully, it seemed as if he had at least a few minutes, and then a few more after the cannon were to sound. Whenever that would be.

A cannon sounds, letting the tributes know that the final three are here at last

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:26 pm

I heard the cannon shot. Who died? Was it Nathan? Or was it Hunter? Who ever it was they probably wouldn't have a good fate considering they had been stuck in that dungeon and they were weakened a lot worse than Flint and I. Flint was probably in the best shape by the looks of it. It felt like forever to wait for the third tribute but I stood up and gripped my pickaxe.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:29 pm

I heard the cannon, smiled, and saw Estrella get up. She seemed quite eager to get this done. I on the other hand, exercised my patience, and stayed sitting down, casually. "Might be a couple minutes, Arrowhead" I tell her, figuring the nickname would catch her off guard, which was exactly what I needed her to be.

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:33 pm

I looked over at Flint, he was sitting down. I suppose he was right but I continued to be confused about the nickname. I mentally shook my head and sighed. I tried to focus one eye at where the third tribute would come and one on Flint. It was the final three truce was gone and he could attack me if pleased at any moment.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 1:38 pm

I see her keeping an eye on me, and realized she figured the truce was over. She of course would suspect me to attack her first, but I had a fun thought for her. "Now don't go shooting me here just because I'm sitting down." I say, smirking at her, which made my mood hard to tell, between the antagonizing speech and the facial expression. "I can still break your neck with arrows sticking out of my skin"

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 2:11 pm

When he mentioned he could still break my neck I rolled my eyes. "I'm sure you could." I say and look over at him. "I didn't plan on shooting you." I say, why would I waste my arrows on him? That was stupid. My arrows were if it was the final two and I was at a long distance, perhaps before then it depended on how it turned out. I then look away and kept waiting. Perhaps it would take a few minutes.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 5:29 pm

I finally get up, slowly and without worry. I was acting like there was no battle coming up, as if this was just a relaxing chat between two old friends. That was what was needed, the capitol audience would be loving it. I walked right up next to Estrella and turned to face the entrance to the courtyard, just like she was. Our shoulders were practically touching. "So, how long do you think it will take him to stagger over here?" I ask, swinging my sword on my other side for fun.

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 5:34 pm

When he walked and stood right beside me I was utterly confused what he was trying to do here. Why was he standing right there beside me, it didn't make sense to me and my brain kept trying to connect the links as to why this may be happening but every time I even tried with an answer it was like that string broke and I just sighed, this might be a distraction technique for all I knew. "Perhaps a few minutes longer." I say in reply.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 6:53 pm

I chuckle, she was very confused. "Maybe another day before the victor is alone in the 'living' category." I say. The plan was coming together perfectly, and it would certainly give the Capitol a show. I enjoyed how I was catering to the wants of the audience without even having a single tribute accuse me of doing so. I just did it in such unorthodox ways that it didn't make any sense or was too subtle.

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 7:05 pm

He was doing something, he had something planned and I didn't know what it was. What was it?! I would certainly beat myself up if I didn't stop thinking about it so I needed to shift my train of thoughts before it drove me mad. No one would like a crazy person in here. I smirked, "Perhaps there will be a winner by the next day..Who knows." I say and then like I told myself I shifted my train of thoughts. It went to all the good memories in district ten and in my mind I played a relaxing game and played it until I was perfectly relaxed and fine, no more confusion no more over thinking. "Even if one of us did go home, we wouldn't be the same." I state simply.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 7:31 pm

I grin. "So, how are you planning on killing two bigger tributes?" I ask her, "Going to mine us to death?" I add, making a small joke about her current weapon, a pickaxe. "I would have expected that from my district, or maybe district 12, but you?" I say, laughing a bit.

No change.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 7:41 pm

I smirked as he spoke. "Who said Hunter or Nathan was in top shape, Flint." I say looking at him. "They were stuck in that dungeon for a month fighting with a group of them and they had no food, they wont be in good as shape as the two of us." I say and then I laughed. "I love how you only count size as a factor here Flint. Just because I'm small doesn't mean anything." I say and then look up at the sky and then back down and I step too the side one step to put some space between the two of us.

Subject: Re: Running from fire Sun May 27, 2012 7:58 pm

I smirk, seeing her step away. "I may over-estimate the power of size, but you underestimate it". She was starting to become intimidated. "So, still betting on Nathan?" I ask her. She brought a nice perspective to things, if not a very antagonizing one for anything regarding careers.

No change.

(Hunter should come now, right?)

Subject: Re: Running from fire Mon May 28, 2012 4:21 pm

(Sure)

Subject: Re: Running from fire Mon May 28, 2012 5:01 pm

My eyes are filled with light as I finally exit the stairs from that horrible dungeon. Since ice didn't seem to work the first time, I cup a bit of water from my sleeping bag pouch and set it onto my cuts. Luckily there's still a bit left for me to drink. Then I start walking, unsure of what the GameMakers will do to bring us 3 tributes together. But when I see two people, I know the GameMakers won't have to do anything. And my heart drops when I realize who isn't one of them. Esther. Esther is dead. There's only Estrella, Flint, and me. That's it. Between the anger and sadness, I go over. "So, what are you lovebirds talking about?" I say with sarcasm.

I see Hunter walk out. Oooh, this would be interesting. "Oh, hey there pal!" I say in a cheerful greeting, "Long time no see!" I say, chuckling. Now my plan would commence. "Funny you should say lovebirds, because it seems you are in quite the state now that you know who got themselves killed, and Estrella here may turn into a bit of a mopey girl once her brain finally realizes what you being here means for her loviepie." I keep on my tirade of mockery, "Perhaps we should give her some time to sort herself out in private" I say, before slamming Estrella down into the pit. I then take out my second sword and grin at Hunter, "Time to get ourselves to the final two" I tell him, before swinging for the first attack.
