There was no countdown. There was no triumphant entrance. Just three pedestals, and three new people. All three are as different from each other as any Tribute could possibly be.

One is a male in their late 30s, perhaps. He almost looks normal, if tense, with the shades on.

One is a female in their mid-to-late 20s. She looks about ready to jump off the platform and run for the hills.

One is a female who barely looks prepubsecent. Bright pink tumbles in waves from under the parka.

And now they're in. Its time.

They are live.

Clint was in no rush to start indiscriminately killing people who hadn't tried to indiscriminately kill him first. On the other hand, he wasn't about to bite it just because these two girls looked like they'd actually have trouble killing a fly.

He took a moment to glance around him, get a feel for the layout, and then he took off as fast as he can, determined to find something he could turn into a weapon.

Trouble killing a fly? Parker would laugh at that if she wasn't so focused on the place in front of her.

She needs to know if there's anything left. She wants something, anything for protection. It's amazing what can be made into a weapon.

Watching the one man run, makes her smile, but until she can better assess the situation: who is there, what is to take, all she can do is find a vantage point. Said vantage point needs to be in the opposite direction of the other opponent.

Chibi-Usa wouldn't have such trouble. Not that she was gunning to go after Clint. Or...anyone for that matter. In fact, she looks almost awestruck by her surroundings, as she slowly steps off the pedestal.

And finds herself nearly thigh high in the snow. Great.

Its like Snow Kaguya...

Slowly - very slowly - she went towards the most obvious monument first. The giant...thing in front of her. The Cornucopia. She didn't know the name, of course. But maybe in there there was shelter. There didn't seem to be a lot of people there aside from the two beside her.

She had to hope no one would kill her before she had a chance to even go a few feet.

Clint wasn't about to stick around a snow-covered plain with two people who, for all he knew, were determined to kill him just to look for an actual weapon. He was going to find a place to hole himself up first and plan from there. The further he got from anybody else, the happier he would be.

Tracks in the snow. Last time Parker was stuck in such a place -- granted she was climbing up a mountain at the time -- tracks meant everything. Easy to follow, and from what little she sees of her two opponents, finding them will be easy.

That also means it would be easy to find her. She needs higher ground, but she needs to see if there anything left to get.

She tilts her head a little in confusion. Then again, the other girl can be the guinea pig. If she comes out not dead, then Parker will take her chances.

[pinklady]

Thanks, Parker. She appreciates the sentiment.

Well, it wasn't not hard to find Miss Pink Hair because...well. Pink hair. Plus, Chibi-Usa wasn't exactly getting far. She was forced to stomp around like a sumo wrestler, and for someone her size, it was slow, sloooow going.

Made slower by the fact she suddenly (well...twenty minutes later) tripped something covered in snow about halfway to the structure and fell face-first into the snow, literally disappearing from view.

...

If Chibi-Usa didn't hate this before, she was hating it now. She could almost imagine Usagi laughing at her on the TV. Well, she could the situation was less "life and death". Usagi would definitely not be laughing if she was watching and knew why she was in this horrible place.

That lady was probably getting a laugh, on the other hand.

[from_a_distance]

Once Clint was out of their sightline, he'd worry about getting rid of his tracks. Until then, it was distance he cared about, and that's what he was going to get himself.

[whosalicewhite]

No problem. She will continue to think that way.

"Hey!" She shouts when the other girl disappears.

"You dead?"

This makes total sense to Parker to ask such a thing.

[pinklady]

Slowly, that head popped up, with a rather surly-looking glare at Parker's direction.

"No."

What did she even trip over, anyhow?

I got the okay to move on :D

[whosalicewhite]

"Okay," Parker answers like she's surprised.

"Did you see anyone? Like with an axe?" Maybe the other girl could see inside the cornucopia. Heaven knows Parker couldn't.

Other people might feign concern like asking if the other person needs help, or is all right, but still, this is Parker.
