CONGRATULATIONS CITY GIRL!!!

Taylor was seriously tempted to retort something rude when she felt the game-maker's voice boom. Taylor listened intently, suddenly terrified. If she died, who would take care of her brother? Certainly not their dad. She couldn't die. It absolutely sucked she was forced to gouge another player to death, but if it meant nightmares at home with her brother and Tessa, she could hack it. 

Taylor glared at Azalea without realizing it, her hand gripped tightly around her spears. Shuddering, she felt the blood trickle down from a small nick in her ear. "You kidding me?" she complained, jabbing Azalea in the lower leg enough to just puncture the skin, but not do serious damage. "Well. Best tribute winning. Not so sure about that." she whispered. She knew the game-makers would mess with the way this turned out. It was either going to be a Career or it wasn't. It was up to the Capitol to decide. Taylor hoped against logic that they wouldn't kill her.

Azalea's eyes flashed with something like an apology. She didn't want to be known as a murderer. But thats what the Games had done to her. She looked sourly at the small tear of flesh on her leg. Blood dripped slightly from it, but luckily it wasn't bad. When Taylor spoke, Azalea felt a little more scared. She knew that the tribute was right, and the Gamemakers would do everything to make this fight as exciting as possible. You can win if you really tried. Azalea reminded herself, preparing herself mentally for battle. She was suddenly glad she had eaten and drunk before, it was a bit ironic in a good way. Azalea noticed Taylor hobbled ever so slightly on her leg. She would go for her legs as a target, if she could knock her down, it would be harder for Taylor to get back up. She went through tiny battle tactics in her mind. Maybe she was the underdog, the girl from District 7 who knows everything about survival but doesn't have super strong strength. She hoped that what she had learned from being in the Games would be enough. Quick as lightning, Azalea lunged at Taylor, coming next to the spear so it couldn't just be thrusted out and jab her, but Taylor would have to move over and hit her. She struck out her knife and dagger, jumping back and backing away as far as she could as the smell of blood hit her nose.

Taylor cried out as a knife struck her. She had to hide her weaknesses, and possibly finding the girl's would do that. Azalea, she noticed, blinked heavily on her left. That could mean no sight or something is there, blocking its ability. Taylor also knew she had to remain on her feet. Both Tributes were using cunning and speed, but that doesn't always work. At the moment, one of them had to use flat out Stand in the Center and Swing Until She Decapitates Somebody. 

Taylor growled under her breath. Her strength was she could use the length of her spear almost as a prod, and push the girl away. Wether it was with the sharp end or not, she didn't care. Taylor could make full use of her leg if she ignored it. So, the tribute charge after Azalea, but on her blind side. She connected with skin but didn't stay around to see how bad it was. Instead, she recessed to the shadows of the arena. There, she would wait in utter darkness until Azalea found her.

Azalea could hear Taylor running at her, but she moved just too late. The spear opened a wound on her left arm. Azalea glared around through her good eye, thankful suddenly that she lost sight in her left eye at the beginning of the games. She had adjusted well to living with her hearing. Azalea spotted Taylor in the shadows of the arena, and backed up to the other side. Azalea clenched her teeth as a bead of blood trickled down her arm. She felt her unopened healing and burn medicines in her pockets, but of course she didn't hint that they were deep in the folds of her baggy pockets. Azalea decided that she would use her ears more than her eyes for this. She listened intently, waiting for the next strike. She knew Taylor could easily hold out her spear and stab her if she ran up and attacked her herself. She made sure she was not too close to the wall. Azalea grabbed one of her stone throwing knives, and launched it at Taylor.

Taylor jumped to the left, but a jut a tad too late. The knife dug into her cheek, but it didn't go straight through; just a nasty cut. With blood spilling from the wound, Taylor held back a cry of pain by biting her lip. She had to be quieter. There was no way Azalea could have seen her in the shadows, and she knew Taylor wouldn't go near the wall because that would corner her. She had to play it smart. 

Taylor looked at the earthy ground, and realized there was a way to confuse Azalea. As quickly as she could, Taylor nabbed a handful of rocks from the ground, and threw it at Azalea. Then she darted to the opposite corner, never leaving the protection of the shadows. She scooped up another handful of rocks and dirt and threw them at Azalea. Then she ran again. Another handful, another toss, another position. Again and again, totally at random. Sometimes she would to clockwise, sometimes not. The entire time, she struggled to stay silent, knowing she would slip up eventually. As long as she could bide her time and weaken her opponent, she might stand a chance.

Azalea felt another surge of hot rage as rocks and dirt were thrown at her from-well, everywhere. She looked around slowly, listening for where the rocks were coming from. But just when she figured it out, more dirt was tossed at her. Think. Concentrate. The hopeful district 7 tribute thought. If she really concentrated, she would be able to see Taylor's swift flashes of movement, hear soft but hurried footsteps. Within a few minutes she turned, her body angled toward Taylor. She felt satisfaction rise inside her when she realized her knife had hit Taylor. When the next dirt came, as it was in the air she hurled another knife in its direction. She saw the stone knife disappear into the darkness.

Azalea felt hard rain start to suddenly pour down. How dramatic, she thought. Suddenly chunks of hail began to fall as well. Azalea's hair whipped wildly around her, the dark brown curls becoming darker, wet, and straight. She didn't mind the rain. However, her wounds stung a tiny bit at the hard water and bits of hail. The blood flew dark and wet from her body, since it was being washed off by the rain. A piece of hail hit her, and the spot burned on her skin. She ignored it, knowing it wasn't her greatest fear at the moment. She had another throwing knife in her hand, and she felt grateful that it was made of stone. The stone would have a much greater impact if her target was hit. She heard the hard patter of the rain sloshing against the ground, she waited for Taylor's next move so she could throw her knife.

Taylor was ready for the knife this time. She had thrown the rocks farther to her left and then ducked, in case it went right where she was. She heard the knife go thump onto the hard and dry ground. With a laugh that threatened to escape her lips, Taylor smiled, and took the knife. "Thanks for the weapon!" she called, running to the left after she taunted Azalea.

Something hit Taylor on the head, and she shuddered. It's cold form melded with her hair, leaving little white things that clouded her view. She almost spoke aloud when she realized it was raining and hailing. This would disguise her footsteps a lot easier than dry, crunchy ground would. She just had to be careful where she stepped, or her feet would slosh in the puddles. This was becoming a game of cat and mouse, except Taylor was the mouse. And who knows? The mouse might just be cunning enough to escape the cat.
