Mini Arena 3
The kids are picked up from the daycare bright and early, but by the Capitol instead of their parents. It's just like old times in the arenas, with only children to contend.
25 - 24 - 23
Stylists are starting to get used to the mini-arenas, though it doesn't mean they've been allowed to dress tributes in whatever they want. All the tributes will be dressed as proxy copy of a respective video game character. All tributes are reminded about the ticket rules for this round.
20 - 19 - 18 - 17 - 16
The platforms lift them up, and there is no cornucopia to be seen. The only way tributes will be able to help and protect themselves is if they go out of their way to harm another tribute and get the tickets, which will be tallied by their watches. The lights of the games flicker and glow within the dark. Classic video game fight tunes play overhead. Before them lay a great and stretching obstacle course, filled with animatronic enemies and various other hazards.
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.
[OOC: Remember, this is forwardated by a week.]

it's all good ;)
"It's gaining on us!" She whimpers, climbing up the rope bit by bit. "Look out! It's gonna get your foot!"
no subject
(he isn't really looking, and it won't even occur to him later that it was probably her ass, if not really damn close to it)
... and gives her another abrupt shove upward.
He's only a moment too late; the rabbit snatches him around one ankle. Davesprite's wings flare and rustle, sending a few orange-gold feathers drifting downward, and he lets out a strange sound that's somewhere between a "Jesus fuck!" and a crow's caw as he twists to try and kick the thing in the face.
no subject
"Oh my God!" Her voice is a high pitched squeal, and as DS kicks at the bunny, Megan reaches down to yank him up by the shoulders. She isn't super strong, but she's confident that she could drag him up with her if she needs to.
no subject
God damn it, he's built for sword-fighting, not kick-boxing.
Megan pulls him up just as he makes a move to bring a second kick to the rabbit's face. At first, it feels like a fumble, but his heel catches against the rabbit's eye and it wheels backward. For a moment, it feels like it might take Davesprite with it, at least until it lets go to clutch its face.
Davesprite throws himself up the ladder to join her. The rabbit howls, and is about to make for the rope before it spots someone else, growls, and goes crashing in another direction.
no subject
With the killer bunny tumbling off toward easier pickin's, the pair are left dangling precariously on the ropes. Megan can barely breathe from all the excitement and horror. She's not even sure she should breathe, considering how close they both came to becoming living carrots.
"Holy crap are you okay? I thought it was gonna eat you! It almost did eat you! Or crush you! Or whatever! What if there are more of those things? Ugh! I know this is meant to be a fight to the death and everything but seriously?! This has to be the weirdest, stupidest thing ever!"
no subject
God forbid there are future generations. Except instead of up a rope ladder, the heroes will just be falling down some stairs. Yeah."Are those things even capable of eating? Nevermind, I don't even want to think about what it would be like being turned into robot shit. Anyway, I'm pretty sure there's more than just one killer rabbit running around..."
His wings bristle as he stares off in the direction that it took off into.
"Wonder where it went..."
What he's not saying is, Who did it go after and should he give enough of a shit to find out.
no subject
"Let's not fuss over that and get the heck out of here." She tries to right herself and still maintain her balance, eyes fixed on the spot where the rabbit disappeared to. "My name's Megan, by the way. Now's a crappy time for introductions, but it'll have to do, I guess."
no subject
Both his hands and his wings make a slight gesturing sort of motion, to urge her forward. He's still watching behind them, as if afraid that turning his head forward will beckon the rabbit back to them. "Davesprite. Keep going, I got your back."
no subject
no subject
"Eleven," there's a part of him that wants to add, Skipping the smalltalk and introductory bullshit will get us to the end of this round a lot quicker, but he doesn't. It isn't fair. "You?"
