It had been a couple days since the start of the Arena. Since all the deaths -- including Cosmic Boy's. Lyle’s one source of hope was that they'd died in the Arena. When they overthrew the Capitol, they could find out how they’d been resurrecting the Tributes. Maybe they could still bring them back...

But that was a worry for the future. Right now, he needed to worry about finding a place for him and Brainy to hole up safely, or as safely as anyone could in this rotten death match. Nothing had been adequate so far – they’d gotten new clothes for Brainy, but holing up in an athletics store in the state they were in was going to go poorly (not that there'd been any magno-ball equipment in the store. They might have burnt the place down if it had); and none of the other places they'd temporarily crashed had been adequate for their needs either. They needed a place they could shine, where they could find supplies to provide entertainment for the miserable sprocking squajs back in the Capitol without actually killing anyone.

Still, it was a bit of a shock to peer around a corner and find Cosmic Boy’s smiling face looking back at him. Lyle clamped his throat shut on a noise of surprise.

A mannequin. They'd made a sprocking mannequin of Cos and stuffed it in his uniform as – as what? An advertisement for some sort of Legion of Supervillains-based shop?!

"Well," he murmured softly to Brainy, "I found a Legionnaire trap. Wanna see what’s inside it?"

At approximately two a.m., the SUV on the third floor rather suddenly rumbles to life. Driverless, passengerless, it lurches forward and off its pedestal, toppling forward to the slick mall floor before giving a squeal of rubber on linoleum and accelerating down the hall.

The crash as it slams into the storefront of the Avengers-themed store is hardly audible compared to the security alarms suddenly going off in tandem with the car alarm. Even on the first floor, Tributes will be woken with splitting headaches from even the deepest sleep by the cacophany of every store on the top floor. On the third floor, the sound is enough to burst eardrums and temporarily blind people. Second floorers are slightly more fortunate, but they'll still find themselves with migraines and difficulty hearing afterwards.

The mall doesn't open until six a.m., which means that unless someone manually deactivates the alarm, there will be no peace for the next four hours.

Get too close and your head might explode.
