~The Darkness of The Games~ There were only five left. Four of them, strong allies to each other, were walking around in a blazing desert. They had no water left, and efforts to survive seemed absolutely hopeless. They spotted a cave nearby, and right as they were about to go towards it, a cannon fired from somewhere. They gave each other nervous glances. “Hey, how many cannons were fired today?” A 12-year old girl named Lilly asked. A man, much older and taller than her, replied, “Let us see… twelve were fired on the first day. Yesterday, 6 were fired, and then today, there have been 2 so far.”
One of the other two, Derrick, blinked as the numbers summed up to twenty. “Guys, there are only the four of us left.” All four sat in silence for a moment, remembering the main rule of the Games: “Only one can win the Hunger Games”.
Derrick told Lilly, “You know what happens now. You have to win, Lilly.”
“No!” Lilly yelled out, “I have become too close to you all now! How am I supposed to kill you all?”
The other two whispered something into each other’s ear, too quiet to be heard. They nodded, and then whispered it to Derrick. He sighed, but nodded. “Lilly, I have an idea.” He said.
Immediately, one of the two, named Vicki, picked up her trident and flung it into Derrick’s chest. He fell, and a cannon fired. Lilly looked at Vicki with hatred, and then grabbed out the trident. The younger girl chucked it at Vicki, directly hitting her. She fell as well, and another cannon signaled her death. The remaining two looked at one another, and in minutes, Lilly stood before another deceased person.That was last year’s Hunger Games. I really hate how it ended. Lilly had to kill them just to live another day! Worst of all, it is on public television for the Capitol’s entertainment! How could someone possibly think watching innocent people die is entertainment?
Please, hear me now, everyone in Panem! See how evil this is and join me before it is too late!
