Mini Arena 2

Tributes are woken early, and the hovercraft ride is a long one. Not the longest some have experienced, but they are clearly going far.

25 - 24 - 23

They land on the deck of the boat, and are ushered underneath, to the lower levels, quickly. Their stylists go from cabin to cabin, decking them out in over the top finery, before loading them into the pods installed into the corners of the rooms.

20 - 19 - 18 - 17 - 16

The platforms lift them up, and they are all ringed around a grand buffet table, loaded with a grand feast looking ready to sag down from the weight. Among the food are supplies, plenty of them, all for the taking.

11- 10 - 9 - 8

They've all been warned, don't step off your pedestal early. They have also been warned to put on a good show. That's all this is about, a good show. None of them have been told that there can be multiple winners this time around.

5 - 4

The sound of the gong plays crystal clear across the opening. The games have begun.

[ lee gave her a small, shaky grin. ] with full honesty, i am not sure i could do anything hurtful to you if i wanted to. [ he would't take expose himself like this if it wasn't for the fact that she had asked...

if this was a trap, he'd be in trouble anyway. ]


I get rather seasick, I am afraid. [ he gave eponine a shaky smile. ] It is not very useful here, however...

sorry for such a late reply!

What's sea sick? Are you ill?

[Eponine lurches closer to Lee.] Try not to worry, you know. You will die soon and then you will wake up in the Capitol all better.

[She's trying to be comforting.] I always thought drowning would be a good way to die. It is quick and no pain, I can't think. Perhaps there will be mermaids to see as we die?'
bloomstwice: (no shut up)

no no don't be! it happens, haha ;P

[ Lee gave her a shaky kind of smile. ] Yes. I only get sick when I am on boats, however. [ Speaking of. The boat lurched, and it took Lee all he had not to throw up on the lady. Why did it have to be on a boat? Why?

He didn't like the idea of dying here...especially when he felt as sick as he did. But he tried to tough it out (it was kind of hard, with the advice she was giving him...), and started to stand. ]
I will not die, not today! I refuse to give up!
gardienne: (desperate arguing)

Mwah!

[Eponine grinned in triumph.]

Well, so. It is a good start. [She held out her hand.] Come. You must help me, Sir, for there is water coming and I cannot swim, and please, I do not wish to drown at all. I do not know what to do or where to go. Never have I been on a boat before.

[ Was she aiming for him to stand up all along? Very sneaky!

Lee slowly got to his feet, immediately putting his seasickness aside. During hard times, a ninja always goes to help someone else, even when they themselves weren't feeling like they could be up to the task! Gai-sensai could smile upon him; this could be the ultimate way to get rid of his seasickness!

He looked to her, and offered a smile. ]
I would gladly assist you. Would you like for me to carry you? I can swim in the water, and there is a way to escape to the top!
gardienne: (conning you)

You wish to help me?

[Eponine is caught by surprise. She hadn't expected such gallant help.]

To carry me? Really? You'll save me from drowning? Oh, Sir, truly?
