Hunger Games, the seventy fifth

[snow i]

Kinkaide came back to reality, and saw tributes falling all around her. She grabbed the now bloody staff, and the three backpacks and ran for the woods, where she thought she had seen scarlet run.

Aran's eyes widened. This was a little more elaborate than he was expecting. "What's down here?" he asked Kylane. His eyes couldn't penetrate the darkness the stairway vanished into.

Cearul kept a furtive eye on Zeuseuss. He wasn't about to trust someone in this arena. That's the kind of thinking that got you killed. There were no friends in the Hunger Games. He spotted Nyra watching them from a while off. She was his original choice for an alliance, but she didn't seem overly interested. Maybe she would join out of necessity. He did have the cornucopia.

Zueseuss amassed an arsenal out of the cornucopia, but he was careful to keep most of it hidden somewhere on his person. He knew enough about the Hunger Games to know that alliances didn't last very long. Once the field was thinned, allies turned on allies, and no one was safe. Especially careers. He wouldn't make the mistake of trusting Cearul. He knew he was probably thinking the same thing.

Nyra might need to get to the cornucopia at some point and if she did she would have to alliance with or kill Cearul. Now Cearul had another person with him, she would have to wait and see.

Zafrina stumbled into the desert and lay upon the sand, hoping that the elements might kill her before the other tributes.

Kylane
She looked up at him. "An aquifer.", she said simply, not wanting to explain in detail. Yes, there was a large aquifer and then some supplies that she had managed to slip in. There was enough dried food to last a week or so and there was a few blankets. Her plan was to get as many people as possible and then she could go into the wiring and.... that wasn't important right now. "Just get down here...", she added, pulling herself from her thoughts.

Katy fell put of the tree and ran her leg twisted.

[Frostbite18]

Zafrina sat up, she was so thirsty but maybe if she just sat here on the sand a little longer she could slip away. She heard a slight crack and looked over, a dark shape moved between the trees at the edge of the desert. Was it another tribute? If it was they were running oddly, maybe injured?

[trees |-/]

Katy kept running/limping. She saw the tribute but didn't want to say anything. Of course the tribute could be nice. Katy fell and sighed as she couldn't get up. She knew not to attract attention to herself

[Frostbite18]

Zafrina made her way slowly toward the injured tribute. If they killed her so be it, she could go out trying to be good. "Are you okay?" she asked warily.

[trees |-/]

"Yeah" she said and held on to a rock nearby to get up. She opened her pack and pulled out the water. She passed some to the other tribute "what's your name?" She asked

[Frostbite18]

Zafrina slowly took a sip, "Thanks". "Let me look at your leg, maybe I can help" she said, carefully watching the girl.
