ARENA 10-Placid Hollow
The Tributes are taken early in the morning, most of their support teams seeming in good cheer as they dress them in warm clothes, getting them to their tubes. There is obvious comfort in the familiar for the prep teams, and they chatter with, or in some cases, over the heads of their Tributes as they get them ready and load them up.

If the Tributes could see the area they are passed up into, they would see a deeply overgrown, dilapidated town green, with a large bandstand rotting away in the middle. The spoils of the cornucopia are not gathered in one spot, instead scattered throughout the thigh high grass and weeds around the town green.
Around the edge of the green, the old business stand a silent sentry, looming out of the fog as it thins and winds into them, providing much desired cover.

But the Tributes cannot see the ground around them. The fog, thicker even than it will be in the rest of the arena, makes the world small around them. The sound of the count down echoes strangely, the tributes seeming too close as the fog brings sounds of their breath, their coughing, the snap of twigs under their feet right to ears of the other Tributes. But with the fog bringing visibility down to only a few feet, it's hard to tell what is a true danger, and what is only the fog playing tricks on them,.

The gong rings out, and the countdown's voice announces "the Arena is now open". The Games have begun.

It's tall, tall and pale. Not like a Walker, it moves too easily, passing through the fog like a ghost. It's circling the car, like it's trying to catch a scent. But...
She reaches ever so carefully over to Ellie, tugging her coat lightly to get her attention and then pointing silently to the monster and then to her eyes, shaking her head.
It doesn't have any eyes. It didn't even seem to have a face.
no subject
Clickers didn't have any eyes either, she thinks, the revulsion bubbling up in her throat, tasting sharp. They didn't have any eyes either, but at least she understood them. These--
Fuck, she mouths, without a sound, gripping her knife. Would she even be able to hurt it?
Breathing hard, heart slamming into her chest, she looked at Clem and raised a single finger to her lips.
Shh.
no subject
It's probably only a couple of minutes but Clem feels like they've been hiding there for hours, scarcely daring to breathe as it circles the car once, twice more before disappearing off into the gloom. Even then how can they be sure it's gone? The fog obscures vision beyond a few feet.
She very, very slowly raises herself up a few inches at a time to try and get a better look.

"I think it's gone, whatever it was...." she slumps down into the backseat from relief.
no subject
"Thank fuck," She whispers. "I have no idea what those things are, but to be honest I don't fucking need to. Let's just make sure we don't run into them."
no subject
The faster the better. She has a feeling that if that thing had realised they were in here it would have had no trouble getting to them.
