84th Hunger Games | Semi-Lit | Not Accepting

Anna lunged forward off her stand when the beep sounded, gazing with big blue eyes to realize she was one of the first to get off there and head for the Cornucopia. Might as well get as much as she could due to that. She dodged to the side, jacket flying behind her in the wind. It was light but it would do. Quickly, she snatched up as many knives lodged in the ground as she could and hurriedly grabbed a small bag and a pack of fruit. Three knives, a bag, some fruit. Good. Hurriedly, she raced off into the woods, heading for a tree. She stumbled once or twice, but she made it. Where to go, where to go, where to go! she thought frantically. She decided she'd get as far away from the Careers as possible. No Rulie in sight. She didn't want to go without at least one person in alliance..oh well. As soon as she was deep into the woods and far away, she made a beeline up a tree, sitting on a sturdy branch near the top, hidden by leaves. She opened her bag.

.:Karen:.

I shook my head at Blake. Don't do it. I bit my lip as the clock started from ten. Nine. Eight. I could do this. Seven. I could win. I didn't have to die. Six. Five. I had to try. Four. Three. I had to try. Two. One. I'm ready.

(Don't kill off Blake yet! D: )

(Aven, sent you a PM~ :3)

(I'll psot in a second. Hershi is specially reserved for Isla to kill >:3)

[Aven]

(I got the PM XP)
(And sorry for the horribly short post last time, I was on mum's phone >.<)
(Computer now )

.:Karen:.

The gong sounded and I flew off my plate. I dove straight for the closest thing, a half-loaf of bread. I then ran towards the first bow I saw, a metal one, about a dozen feet away. I hoped I'd survive at least the first couple of days. I grabbed the bow, along with a quiver of arrows, safe so far, and bolted away from the Cornucopia. Blake would find me later...hopefully. I felt horrible leaving him there, but I had to get out of there. I glanced behind my shoulder as I sprinted away. I turned back in front of me and ran towards the part of the arena that was bright autumn orange. I had considered the more spring-like area; more leaves meant better hiding places in the trees. But the autumn-y area also had plenty of leaves still on the trees, so I went there instead.

Hershi grabbed one of the other bows in the Cornucopia, darting towards the spring terrain without a glance back. He had no idea where Grace was, or if she was even alive, but survival instincts were priority of his main functions right now.

(Hold on... Parents want me to do something XD)

Anna looked up at the soft crunching of leaves. Somebody was coming. She looked through the leaves of her branch, hands shaking, and saw Karen. Not a Career..she didn't have an alliance though, she hadn't seen Rulie. She knew Karen was shy. Maybe she could make a friend. "Hey! U-up here!" she shakily called out. She left her bag, now stuffed with the fruit and whatever else it had in it, in the tree. The knives left stabbed into the branch firmly. She landed on her feet nimbly. She raised her hands, showing she had no weapons. "..You're Karen, right?" Dangerous move. She could only hope Karen didn't kill her while she was weaponless.

(Woah I missed a lot! Anyone feel free to kill off Laura.)
Adrian breathed in deeply, body tensing as the countdown began. He could see Isla and Brady across the way and knew Alou was to his left. This was reassuring but he couldn't help but worry, Jace was only a few spots to Alou's left. His eyes narrowed and he scanned the arena, immediately seeing two bright curved swords. He grinned, those were his. As the last seconds ticked by, he glanced at Alou, making a silent promise. The signal went off and he sprinted towards the swords, kicking them up with his feet then spinning around to catch them. He turned to face the oncoming crowd, ready for the games to begin.

Laura shook, visibly nervous. She had no strategy, no allies, no strengths. She was an easy target. The Career pack was terrifying as ever and as her eyes roamed the Cornucopia they landed on a small backpack about 30 feet infront of her. As the alarm sounded she sprinted towards it, bending down to pick it up.

.:Karen:.

I jumped, hearing another voice above me, and raised my bow out of instinct. I saw it was another girl...Anna, I think? She looked young, and scared. I paused, then lowered the bow, quickly making my way out of plain sight. I climbed up the tree, crouching on a branch a little above the girl. I nodded in response to her earlier question about my name. "Yeah," I said quietly, glancing around in the direction of the Cornucopia. I still felt badly about leaving Blake.

Daniel stepped off the platform, racing for the Cornucopia. Finding a spear, he smirked. He could take out a Career with this! He stood, tilting his head, looking for an enemy. Raising his spear, he threw it at Alou, narrowly missing her foot by a few inches. "Oops!" he called, smirking. Arrogant. He didn't care. He was going to die anyway.

(Just trying to make his death quicker lol XD)


Anna swayed on the branch, looking at her as Karen climbed to a branch above her. She stood up, reaching out her hand to the branch above her, toward Karen. "Hello." she said calmly. She tilted her head. Bow and arrow, climbing skills..she considered it carefully. "I was too scared to ask earlier..would you like to make an alliance?" she said, smiling. It might be hard to trust in the Games, but she'd never harm her allies. Not even if she had the guts.
