[ | ] Moving on [ | ] {Team EXP vs. Colton Brax}

ooc: Well, this sucks. I wanted Colton to die of hypothermia. Should've done that sooner, I guess. He didn't even go down fighting. Gee, thanks for the unconsciousness.

Colton felt his attackers come down upon him and it was then that it hit him. He was done for. This was the end. No second chances. No more life. No home, family, or Sherif. He wouldn't ever grow up, fall in love, have a family. He wouldn't ever truly experience life and all of the high and low times.

Deep in his heart, he had always known this would happen. He was young and inexperienced. Given more time, he might have had a chance, like his opponents did. He couldn't even really bring himself to be mad with them. In their shoes, he would have done the exact same thing. Well, he probably wouldn't have the heart to kill them. He would leave them to die. What would they do to him? His wounds were enough to kill him. The blood had stained the snow a dark color of reddish-brown in a circle around him.

Accepting death, Colton let his sword drop. Or maybe it was from fatigue. He wasn't cut out for this.

The girl hit him with her spear. He hadn't originally liked her, but she didn't seem that bad now...

He feel into unconsciousness, a smile spreading across his face as he did so. What a nice person...

Colton Brax was riding a horse. He looked down. The horse was pure white. A beautiful mare. She was riding through an endless meadow. There were many flowers scattered among the green grass. There was another horse in the distance. He thought he recognized that face. Who was it...

Iris Brookside!!! He was friends with her. She was smiling happily now, at peace. Was he at peace. Yes, I am, he thought. It was strange. He had no conflicting thoughts, no doubts, no uncertainty...it was nice. Colton found himself smiling back.

Iris was laughing. Colton suddenly realized that she was talking to someone. Ruby!!! It was his friend from District Seven. Both of them were wearing white sun dresses. Colton looked down at himself. He was wearing a loose white shirt and pants. They were clean. There wasn't any dirt and grime...It was strange. Had he been dirty a lot lately? What was he doing?

Colton directed his mount towards his friends and joined them. Suddenly they were all laughing and smiling at each other. Then they started racing. Colton's family was alongside him. He could see their faces grinning widely at him. Aren't they supposed to be sad about something? he wondered. But what was there to be sad about?

There was no despair and hopelessness, only joy. Everyone loved everyone here. Colton didn't know where here was, but it filled him with a sense of nostalgia. He remembered all of his childhood days...but something was missing.

Not anymore. A gorgeous chestnut stallion rode up and nuzzled his white horse. Sherif!!! His horse, companion, best friend! They were together. Suddenly, Colton was no longer riding his white mount. Instead, he was on Sherif's back. The white horse had turned into pure light. It was calling to him.

Colton walked into the light.

END OF COLTON BRAX.

ooc: Sorry if that seemed too religious. O.o
Originally I planned on doing something with a journal entry or something from his home on the day of the reaping before he was chosen, but I didn't want to write it out...
