Hunger Games 3 - closed - started

Name: Luna VonTrapp

Age: 14

Gender: Female

District: 2

Appearance/Picture: She is one of those people who eats a ton and is stick thin. She is really tall and wiry.

Spoiler

History: She has always worked at the factories. Her life was simple. Always spending her money. Her dad was a drunk and her mom was dead so she didn't care much about anything. She usually lived on the streets. Her best friends Lizzy and Rea usually kept her out of trouble.

Skills: She is very strong for her size and can get herself out of most scrapes. She is also very quick and thinks fast.

Weaknesses: She is over trusting and not careful she acts without thinking same goes for saying things. She isn't tactful and can sometimes be ruff with thins.

Personality: She is very giving and doesn't think before she does. She is very spur of the moment and tom boyish. She doesn't care what other people think and she doesn't judge people. Really, not at all she has not judgment on weather someone is even rich or poor. Nothing at all. She can easily be taken advantage of. She has no fear of anything and if you told her to jump of a bridge for a dare she would probably do it. She is very random and with her you have to expect the unexpected. She also loves words.

Up For Alliances?: In Alliance with Specs, Victor, and Charlie.

Your Symbol:

Spoiler

How much are you willing to post: Well, it depends on how much is needed.

Other: I really just made this character for fun and so she can die next. Because I didn't want to force anyone to die too soon that didn't want to. Though we have had plenty of deaths already. So yep.

"We're going to need water soon, though," I said between mouthfuls of tiger, holding up my precious water jug. "And I don't trust the freshwater scattered around the parks after that fire last night."

Maple nodded. "So...the only place that might have clean water is the fountain in front of the Cornucopia."

I sighed. "That's just great. All of the tributes--well, a lot of them, judging from the meager amount of water bottles at the supply lines--are going to be there, willing to fight to get to that water. Yay."

"Well, we need to do something, that's for sure," Maple said, fiercely knitting her brows.

"We were going to move on anyway," I said, staring at the darkest corner of the room, visualizing the crazy wildfire from last night springing up again. "The question is whether we should go to the Cornucopia sooner or later."

"We'll have to go eventually, though," Maple said, mirroring my own thoughts. "As you said earlier, that water in the jug you have isn't going to last forever. Particularly not with two people sharing it."

I nodded.

"So, when do you think we should go?"

This time, I figured I'd let her make the decision. It would make her feel more trusted by me, make me look weaker at the same time, and just might heighten her pride a little bit. Yeah, I knew that I'd need to be in an alliance to actually get to the end, though sometimes I didn't really want to. But everyone knew that alliances didn't last forever.

Not in these Games.

Mazzi with character Eric Sparrow told me through a p.m. he is unable to post anymore. So guys he is free game. The way it sounded he doesn't even want to post his death. When you kill him though make sure that work with what he has and where he is at the moment. He can't just suddenly be across the arena in under an hour.

P.S. I have put his name in bold in the list.

haha, my character's named Luna!

I had a restless night due to the pain in my leg. It wasn't that bad anymore, but a sharp pain from moving the slightest bit didn't help. When the sun finally started to come up, I was relieved. Until, that is, I heard the announcement.

"Tributes the fire seems to have left you with clear sweet water. Do you dare drink it? I noticed that the fountain in front of the cornucopia is up and running again. Maybe that is the only water that hasn't been tinkered with. Then again it could hurt you worse. It is really your choice."

I looked around at Ellette and Dexter, to see if they had any clue what to do. I was confused. Should we risk our life and go, or stay here and risk it another way? I looked around at our meager supllies. We'd been able to save my half gallon water bottle and two daggers last night. I looked behind Dexter and he had a water jug too. Maybe, if we waited and stolely drank the half gallon I had, we'd be OK.

" Hey guys, maybe we should wait a little before we go to the fountain. I have some water." As I said this my stomache growled. " And, maybe we could get some food."

Sparkle Tourmaline

I had found the boy sleeping alone in the woods, snoring lightly. It had come to my mind that, maybe, he would e a good ally. He looked strong, and he had a few things from the cornucopia. Might as well see if he has some use.

He started to stir, and I immediately grabbed my sword and pointed it at him. This way, I'd have the upper hand. His eyes slowly opened, and as they were still adjusting to the light, he saw me.

He jerked around and gluped as he realized the danger he was in. I saw his hand reaching for something, a dagger. As his hand gripped the handle I immediately struck the dagger and ripped it out of his inexperienced hand. I tried one of my favorite maneuvers. sliding around the person and sticking a weapon at their throat. I stepped around him, starting this move, when he quickly grabbed my ankle, and pulled. I fell to the ground with a yelp.

" What was that for, why can't we just be allies? You could've asked that instead of pointing that thing at my face!" I smiled, he was a fast thinker, maybe an alliance would be in order.

right them an announcement came over the arena.

"Tributes the fire seems to have left you with clear sweet water. Do you dare drink it? I noticed that the fountain in front of the cornucopia is up and running again. Maybe that is the only water that hasn't been tinkered with. Then again it could hurt you worse. It is really your choice." The booming voice of Claudius Templesmith cut out, leaving us with a decision to make.

" Fine we'll be allies. LEt's go get some water." I said. As I stood up, pain gripped my stomach. " Akkhh!' I choked out through the pain. It must have been the water I drank earlier, it was poisioned!

Pain gripped my stomach like a hand squeezing it. I couldn't think through the pain, this was a bad situation to be in. I just hoped I had made the right alliance.

Name: Roger Jordan (R.J)

Age: 14

Gender: Guy

District: 2

Appearance/Picture: He is a boy with red hair, light skin, freckles, dark brown eyes, and is fairly skinny. http://www.lookwhojustblouin.com/red%20head%20teen.jpg

History: R.J's parents are both famous doctors, so as a boy, R.J never got to spend time with them. He assumes that they don't love him so he voluntered for the games. He thinks that if he can win the games then his parents will spend more time with him and he will feel loved.

Skills: Since he was a child he has had a lott of free time so he practiced making knots. He can set incredible snares to catch food and people, which could come very well in handy. He also knows how to make medicine out of natural herbs to help cuts and infections.

Weaknesses: He can't stay in the sun for to long or he burns badly. Also, he is not very good at moving stealthly so a night assault is pretty much out of the question.

Personality: He likes to keep to himself, more of a "stay out of my way" type of guy if you know what I mean. Although if you can get on his good side he can be very useful.

Up For Alliances?: Maybe, maybe not. It all depends on who they are and where they are on the kill list.

Your Symbol: [/b] For his 6th birthday, his only friend, Eli, spent all his money to get R.J a snake ring. http://snakering.org/ (The gold one in the middle on the top of the page.)

How much are you willing to post: Once daily, maybe twice on the weekends.

Other: Although he is a lone-wolf type of guy, he has on true friend, Eli.

GONG! This was it. This was the moment I had been waiting for. The Hunger Games had begun. Before I could react I was already running in the direction of the cornucopia. As I ran past some of the worse items I was tempted to grab them but I decided against it.

"No," I reminded myself. "There are probably better things deeper down. And there is probably some sort of rope farther in, so I should wait for that."

I raced deeper in. After about 500 feet the items got slightly better so I slowed down for a split second to pick up a dagger laying on the ground.

"Good, I have a weapon," I reminded myself. "Now all I could use is some rope of some sort."

After about another 1000 yards the items got better yet. I saw a pair of glasses lying on the ground so I picked them up off the ground.

"Nice, some sweet shades," I said to myself as I dared to turn around. I suddenly cramped up. The careers were a way back taking down people as they went. I saw a girl slice a boy in two, heard the cannon and kept running. "I'm going to need to find some rope, and fast if I don't want to end up like that boy."

I kept running. As the items were at the best I was daring to go into the cornucopia I looked to my sides. On one side of me was thick rope, but on the other was barbed wire. I headed in the direction of the barbed wire.

"Yes," I whispered quitely as I reached for the wire. All of a sudden the crap in my gut intensified tenfold. I slipped and sliced my hand on the razor-sharp wire. "Ouch," I muttered, grabbing both spools. As the blood was running, I saw a sign that said Animal Kingdom. I headed in that direction. All of a sudden I heard footsteps behind me. It was the careers! I started to sprint. They were fifty feet behind me and gaining when I saw the fire heading in my direction. I ran faster. Right as it looked like the fire was about to reach me I dove to one side and it made a huge line seperating me from the carrers.

"Whew, that was too close," I exclaimed as I made my way into the Animal Kingdom." I saw another sign that said "Penguins Cave." I went to it, went in the cave and sat down. And that's when I heard the second cannon shot.



Level 2 Dagger, Level Three Night vision glasses, Level four spool barbed wire(2)

( i might be wrong, but i think the guy from 2 is already dead...)

Cosette Tanner

Her eyes fluttered open to meet two shiny black circles. They were familiar, hadn't she killed something with eyes like that? It didn't matter, anyway. she reached up, her hand passing straight through the small creature.

"The fire's out now." It chirped.

"You're not real." Cos said.

"Of course not." It perched on the edge of her boat. It was a merecat, like the one she'd killed. it had a kind of glowing aura, but it only illuminated itself, not anything around it.

"Are you Timone?"

"No." It's small head contorted into a disapproving look. "I'm your Subconscious. Call me what you will, but not that."

She sat up, and one arm jerked without her consent. Weird. Her stomach ached, too, more than it had before. It had to be the water. The stone room smelled strong and sweet, the scent wafting from the stagnant water.

"You should get out of here. Who knows what those fumes will do." The merecat chattered.

"Because I'm not crazy or anything already." Cos sighed. she tried to push herself up when her arm collapsed under her. She looked at it to see dark veins snaking out from under her bandage, and some sort of yellowish stuff on the exposed part of the dagger. "Ow?" She twisted her arm around, wondering why she couldn't feel the nasty looking thing. but her entire body was having a hard time responding to her, no wonder she couldn't feel it. She pushed herself up with her other arm instead, managing to get to her feet and stumble out of the boat. The merecat made an impossible jump from the side of the boat to her shoulder, then down to her injured arm, curling itself around the blade. it felt good, warm and comforting.

She made her way up the ramps and such to the main entrance. the metal doorhandles on the outside had melted, showing just how hot the fire had been. she was marveling at it when the anthem sounded, and the merecat cleared it's throat, making her pay attention. It was an announcement, a feast, maybe? no, about the water, and the fountain... somewhere. she couldn't focus on that... maybe if she started walking, she'd find it. it would be fairly easy to tell which fountain, she'd just camp out until everyone else left.

She stumbled forward, limbs jerking at random as she made her way through the parks.

"You know, I can't just be 'the merecat' forever." The small creature said.

"Then you'll be Zana." Cos replied. "My little Zana..."

just outside of the Pirates of the Carribean, alone with her hallucinated pet.

Taylor Silk


I hoped I had made the right move joining a career in an alliance. Then again, she seemed like she was sick for some reason.

"I don't think that's a good idea right now." I explained. "I bet other tributes need water too. The gamemakers are probably just trying to move the game along."

"I really need water. I drank some earlier that I think was poisoned." She said urgently.

I contemplated this in my head. We were each others responsibility now, so I couldn't just let her die. Maybe some fresh water would be good for her.

"Okay, we can go to the water fountain, but we have to be careful. I can guarantee that there will be other tributes at the fountain. And if they're not out in the open, then they'll be hiding, probably with long distance weapons, ready to kill us."

"I'm willing to take that risk. I know it's a long shot, but I really need water, and how much water have you had since the game started?" She'd made a good point.

"Alright, let's go."

We started the dangerous trek to the water fountain.


In an alliance with Sparkle Tourmaline.

Huddling in the penguin's old cave, about an hour after the gong-rang was when the blood really started gushing. Luckily I had the dagger, so I took off my shirt, and cut out the left sleeve. As I wrapped it around my wound I realized that I hadn't eaten or drank in the last eight hours or so. I was beggining to feel dizzy.

"I need to get some water," I reminded myself. "The nearest water is in the water fountain in the cornucopia, and there are probably other tributes there, so that idea would get me killed. I'll also need to set snares for food."

And so I set off, with my barbed wire, now holding it carefully by the ends, so I wouldn't cut myself. As I wandered aimlesley, marking where I was going so I wouldn't get lost, I saw a sign that said "Africa." I passed through a giant arch into what must have been the Africa exhibit because all I saw was wildlife I'd never seen before. There were strangely colored birds flying overhead, and I found a pond with a huge brown thing with horns in it. I saw a tree near the pond and set a snare underneath it. I set another one in the tall grass by the pond.

"I could probably get some food here, but I'll have to check back soon because lots of animals are scavengers," I stated aloud.

After I got some water from the murky pond, I examined my snare work. They werem't the best but that was because looping the wire was very difficult, because if I slipped then I would probably have a slice in my other hand, and I would be rendered defensless. Plus the pain in my hand was pulsating.

As I set off I an heard animal rustling in the bushes. It sounded very large. I started to move faster, hoping that whatever it is it wouldn't see me. Right as I was leaving the Africa exhibit the creature blocked my path...

"N-n-nice kitty," I stuttered as I didn't move. The lion turned and looked me straight in the eye, then it opened it mouth and roared at me as to say,"Leave my territory!" So I turned and ran back to the penguin exhibit.

In Animal Kingdom All Alone

Well, I guess I'll kill Eric Sparrow 'cause I'm 'spose to be with him...I wonder why he was with Vincent? Sorry for not posting I've been with relatives...and waiting for Mazzi. *Sighs* While I guess I'm alliance-less.

Red Ferning

The boy frowns, trying to study me I guess. Stupid kid. Scrawny and with scrunched eyebrows he looks weak and pitiful. He caried no tools.
"My name is Red. Do you plan to die?"
His eyes wided.
"Why do you say that?"
I shift my weight from side to side. This boy was losing my patience. It's not like we had much time. Death was knocking at our doors. Should I just kill him? It would be for the better. Killing brutally still didn't seem my style. Well, not like I killed more than deer before.
"You have no tools. No company. Seems a stupid choice to me."
I see a fire in the distance and a scream. More and more death. Joy.
"I can take care of myself."
I raise an eyebrow. He didn't seem like the type. His eyes narrow and he takes a step back. I twist my pocket knife in my hand. His death would be so easy...
"Can you?"
My knife jumps to his throat instictively. His eyes seem calm however, thinking. Damn. Didn't this idiot know there was no time for thinking?
"I can make you a deal..."
" I don't need any deals."
I can feel my heart hardening at the second. I needed to win this thing. To go home and claim victory. To prove myself to my father, to move my dog to a better place. To kill every career in this game. To LIVE. I almost laugh at myself. That may be the most smartest thing I've ever thought. The boy, Eric or something, tries to trip and runs off. I fall, but just barely. Stupid idiot. He grabs something while I'm getting up and twists it. I sprint after him and catch up. I stab his back before he even notices me. He crumples to the ground. Satisfied, I turn away. Suddenly I hear a cry of pain followed by a groan.
"I-I'm not d-dead."
Whirling around I see Eric crumpled on the ground, blood pouring from his mouth. I kneel beside him, re-pulling my knife. He grins slightly and throws something at me. It explodes, slightly ripping the skin off my arm. I groan.
"D-Death has to hurt some-one r-r-r-righ-t-t?"
He looked so pitiful I almost felt sorry for him. I lean beside him and mutter an old District 7 send away verse. I don't know why I did it but looking back now the kid could of been useful. He could have helped. To bad.
"I'm sorry. I really am. You hurt me well though kid."
"Im g-gladdd."
He stutters and his eyes flutter shut. Sweet death. I turn away just as my arm starts throbbing. I wish I had bandages. Still, my skin was tough. I pour some water over it and wonder where to go next. Wish I had a map. I wished I had a lot of things that I couldn't have. An animal exibit might be good. There mighht be some food there.

Eric Sparrow dead.

Taylor Silk


"I say we stick to the woods." Sparkle suggested. I nodded. We started walking in the direction of the Corucopia. Or at least what I thought was the right direction. After walking for a half-an-hour, Sparkle asked,
"Are you sure this is the right direction?"

"Umm, no?" I responded.

"You've been leading us in the wrong direction?!" She looked furious, so I stepped back, knowing she had a sword. She looked amused that I had done so.

"Did you honestly think I was going to kill you because... Never mind..."

"Look. I thought this was the right direction because when I ran from the Cornucopia, I thought it was this direction. Obviously I was wrong. Now if we just retrace our steps, then we should be able to find our way back. Okay?" I suggested.

"Sure. But know we need to be extra careful because we don't really know where we are. For all we know, we could be in the Animal Kingdom." As she said that, I heard a strange bird call overhead. We had been walking back for about five minutes, when Sparkle doubled over in pain.

"What's wrong?!" I asked frantically.

"It's the water! Do you have any food? That might help because then I'll have something else in my stomach." She replied urgently.

"I have some dried fruit. Here, have some." I nearly hurled my food at her.

"Thank you. I think we should set up camp for the night. I don't think I can walk very far right now."

"Okay. You get some sleep while I watch." As soon as she laid down she was asleep. I made a fire and pulled out my knife, ready in case anyone attacked. I scooted over closer to the warm glow of the fire, slightly drousy, as I heard the strange bird call again.


Unknown location, with Sparkle Tourmaline.

Dexter

I nodded in agreement to what Luna said and grabbed one of the daggars that we'd managed to save.

"There should be some animals around here that we can eat. Should I go out and hunt for some?" Luna's stomach growled again, answering for her. Elle nodded and sat down next to Luna, stretching out her legs.

"I'll stay here with Luna, you can go out and find some food for us. Be sure to be back before the sun goes down." I nodded and pocketed the daggar before running a hand through my slightly damp hair and turning to leave. "And hey!" I stopped and turned around, my hands in my pockets.

"What?"

"Try not to die." I laughed and waved her off, turning around again.

"I'll try my best."

I made my way out of our little hide out and was instantly on alert for any sign of edible life. There were a few animals running around, but we needed something bigger than that, something that could get us really full. I don't know about those girls, but I ate a lot and I needed something to satisfying my angry stomach. One of those little strange skinny looking things running around wouldn't be enough. I needed something huge, like-

A rustling in a nearby bush cut off my words and I drew the daggar as fast as I could, crouching down and silencing everything, even my breath. As quietly as I could, I went to hide behind a turned over jeep, getting down low as not to be seen. After a few seconds of waiting that felt like hours, a fat boar waddled out from behind the bush, snorting loudly and scaring away the other animals. I needed something like that. The beast bent down to munch on some grass and I slowly made my move, creeping forward until I was a good distance away and then I struck.

The daggar made contact in the boar's side and the thing wailed loudly and thrashed around, trying to throw me off. It's legs hit me repeatedly anywhere they could and I grit my teeth against the pain, stabbing into the soon to be meal as many times as I could. Not long after, the animal stopped struggling and I was covered from the neck down in blood. Feeling slightly digusting, I pealed off my shirt and tied the boar up in it. Tired and more than a bit hurt, I made my way back to where Luna and Elle were.

( i might be wrong, but i think the guy from 2 is already dead...)

Umm.... yes. Definitely. I wanted him killed early on so I wouldn't have to write about him (I'm also district 2) So was the district 8 boy. (In fact, he was killed twice. Sorry, Taylor Silk, guess they un-died?)

Claire

The cramps get worse as the day goes on. We dump all the remaining iodine in the bottle Skye filled, and drank some. It tasted worse than anything and reminded me of the doctors office. Her mouth was stained its dark, rangy red.

Swaying a little, I got to my feet, forced myself to think rationally. The bear is dead. If we can make a fire, we have food, and I think I might be able to, but it would alert the other tributes to our position. And we need shelter, and we need to decide whether or not to go for the Cornucopia.

"Sorry, Skye, but I have to talk this out. We have water. We have food, if you count the bear. Everyone will be going for the fountain today, and neither of us is good enough with weapons to fight off a career pack."

She bristles slightly at that statement, but stays quiet. "The iondinated water will last us a day or two. Then we'll be getting desperate, but so will everyone else. So I think, maybe, one of us should go tonight, after the first rush. The other one stays with all the supplies but the knife. Can you even throw a knife?"

"Of course I can handle a knife. Axe, knive, same thing. I'm not afraid of fighting with it."

"No, I mean, can you throw a knife."

"No."

"Then I'm going."

I'm not to thrilled about the idea, since if it was me I would have hightailed it with the gear immediately. But I'll have to trust her. And I'll go tonight.

"Wait...What was that?" she asks, freezing suddenly in the middle of the sidewalk. We'd been moving down it, looking for anything that could help. But in our argument we'd gotten distracted... and another noise in Animal can't be good news, no matter whether it's another animal, or more tributes.

Animal kingdom, nearing the other tributes (can't remember exactly who) in the artic adveture place....

Roger Jordan (R.J)

After a day of resting up and checking my snares, I now feel refreshed. So I decided to do some exploring. I left the cave with nothing but my dagger and glasses. I decided to head into the more wooded section of the place, if I could ever find it. After about an hour of endless wandering and rambling I finally found it. As I walked into the woods I felt a sense of safeness and security, but it is probably just the gamemakers messing with my head. As I moved deeper in I heard a loud boom and some yelling. That's when I heard the cannon and saw the hover-craft take up a boy.

"One down, about 17 more to go," I chuckled to myself. "It's getting pretty dark in here, let's try out the glasses." As soon as I put them on I could clearly see everything. From the trees to the birds to smoke of a fire.

"Wait!" I exclaimed. "A fire? And if there's fire then there must be tributes. And if there are tributes there is food! This is your chance R.J. If you can go in there and kill one of them and get food there will be sponsors for you. This is it."

As I neared the fire, just now a glowing pile of embers. I put on my glasses. There were two tributes there. A boy was on guard, but he looked drowsy so he would be the easy target. Sleeping next to him was a girl. No wait! That was the girl who chopped the boy from district 12 in half! She would be the hard one. I took out my dagger and rushed in. There was dry fruit! The boy managed to let out a cry to get up the girl before my dagger came down on him. It would have been a killing blow, but he stuck out his arm, and my blade rushed right down the side of his arm. He let out a cry of pain and stumbled back, tripped over a log, and blacked out. Now for the fruit. I ran over to the bag of it and took 3 peaches before the girl was coming at me with her sword brandished. As I started to run, she swung and took off about a half inch of the back of my leg. As I screamed in pain I continued to run. She was gaining on me. I had a plan.

I turned around and yelled,"Hey! You might want to check on your partner!" In the moment she turned I made it into the bushes and ran back to my cave. I just managed to bandage the wound before I lost too much blood and blacked out.

I know the boy was supposed to be dead, but I wasn't asked if DaSpetsnaz could join so I just it slide. By the time I got home from my NewYear'sEve party he had already posted twice I am afraid. I closed the storybook now so this won't happen again. We have 18 characters at the moment!
