WEAPONS ROLL RUN

[etcircenses]

"The museum will be closing in half an hour. At that time, something very special will be distributed to the Tributes brave enough to risk their peers at the first floor elevators."

The storm is still raging outside, casting everything on the first floor in a dim light occasionally shattered by flashes of lightning. The thunder rolling in the background seems to set the tone, although some may find it a welcome distraction from silence.

Half an hour passes. Five minutes before it's done, the elevators cease functioning, leaving Tributes to use the stairwells.

Each elevator door opens to reveal a handful of weapons: firecrackers, revolvers, grenades. There are no threats to the Tributes who try to retrieve them - none but their fellow competitors.

Pruna reached out to try and grab the crowbar but Max had already started moving and then Sandy's scream pierced the air, loud and shrilling.

It was followed by a gun shot, Pruna, having gotten control of the gun back, had pointed it at Max and pulled the trigger.

The force of it was not something Pruna was prepared for, she flew backwards across the room, crashing into the wall with a crash.

The blast from the gun tore into Max's chest, causing her to fall backwards. She was too shocked to feel pain before what little life remained fell away.

The gunshot was a muffled thump against the blood rushing in Sandy's ears.

She was curled over clutching at her missing shoulder as she brought her face up to peer through the mask holes in Pruna and Max's direction...except Max was gone and Sandy was confused in her daze.

It didn't matter though did it? Pruna was OK, Pruna would take care of her, she just had to keep hiding the tears under her mask.

Pruna opened her eyes, scrambling to her feet and looking around, disorientated. She picked up the gun and clambered back over to where Sandy was.

"Sandy, be coming on, she do be being dead, she will no be hurting you." She reached out to Sandy's remaining arm to help her. "We do be needing to be moving."

Well done <3

Sandy nodded in stunned agreement and let Pruna lead her away from the chaos.

Max was dead and she wasn't, and she had a whole lot more living left in her if she was lucky.
