Chapter 12
<Paranormal Cookie's POV>
I sigh and began to look for the sun. It was in the middle of the sky, so therefore it is noon. I munch on a beef strip and was on the look out for anyone nearby. There was no one. I decided to travel by tree, since I was light and the branches would not break from my weight. Well, at least the big ones. I began to walk along the tree, cautiously. Falling would be a bad idea. As I am walking on the branches, I spot someone. I quickly hide behind a tree and watch the person. He is small and has brown hair. I recognized him as one of the tributes from District 14. Simonhds90, I think that's his name. He pretty much has nothing. No weapons, no supplies but he could have some camouflaged body armour. I look at my weapon. Should I get my first kill? It seemed wrong and I did make a huge speech about how Youtubers saved lives. I decided to do it anyway. I quietly slid down the tree bark and hid behind the tree. Then Simon did the most dumbest thing that could possibly be done in the games. He cupped his hands around his mouth and began to call out a name. "BODIL! BODIL40! BRO CAN YOU HEAR ME? BOOOODIIIIIL!!!" I quickly run up to him and cover his mouth. I sighed. "You probably shouldn't of done that," I say. Simon struggles and began to struggle to get free. I'm only thirteen and he's having a struggle, how is this possible? I stab his back and I could feel his muffled screams vibrate in my hand. Then, he falls to the ground, followed by a pool of blood. I let out a sob. I never killed anyone before, and this felt so horrible. "I'm so sorry," I say. Then I see a nearby patch of flowers. A cannon goes off.
"Simonhds90 has fallen. One death point for Paranormal Cookie."
I begin to pick the flowers and lay them beside his body. He doesn't deserve to be left out here alone like this.
<Bodil40's POV>
I hear a cannon go off and I remain quiet, waiting to see who died. I swear it better not be Simon. He's my best friend and I would go insane if he died. We've been through so much together and lately he's been showing signs of affection towards me. Then the announcement comes on.
"Simonhds90 has fallen. One death point for Paranormal Cookie."
My heart stops. Rage fills up inside of me like it never has before. It feels so much angrier than when I play X-run on Minecraft. I fall to the ground and bang my fists into the dirt. I began to scream. "SIMON!! NO!!!! SIIIIIMOOOON!!!" I could feel tears streaming down my face and I saw them drop to the ground like small rain drops. "Simon," I whimper, "no. I should of gone looking for you. I should of found you. I would of saved you." I stand up and whistled a four note song. "BLOOD WILL NOT FALL ANYMORE!!" I shout out. I heard my whistle echo across the arena.
<Emily Edgerton's POV>
Houston and I just stared at the girl looking at us. We were all shocked and surprise. None of us moved. Suddenly, Houston's protective side came into the party and she grabbed the flame knife and walked over to the girl. "WHO ARE YOU AND WHO SENT YOU HERE TO KILL US? HOW DID YOU KNOW WHERE WE ARE?" She held the flame knife just under the girl's chin and the girl and myself was both terrified. "Wh-what?! No one sent me, I promise! I just found this cave! And how am I suppose to kill you? All I have is a slingshot! And I have no ammo!" "Oh yeah!" Houston looked at me. "Emily make a fire, NOW!" I obeyed her and used my fire glove to make a small fire. Then Houston looked back at the girl. "Surrender now and throw your weapons in the fire," she said, pointing at the fire. "What!" The girl shrieked. "Yeah, that's right! YOU HEARD ME! SHOW US THAT YOUR NOT A REAL THREAT AND WE WILL LET YOU JOIN US!" The girl's eyes widened and she walked over to the fire. She threw the slingshot into it. Then she looked at Houston. "I surrender."
