For as much as it has been a battle for survival in this place, tonight he, Alice, and December decide to rest. To no avail, however, because as soon as they attempt to find respite, all hell broke loose. The skies turned dark, darker than normal, as a loud, rumbling screech filled the entire arena. As soon as they began to gather their things and flee, they soon realized there was no escape. Not when they're at the mercy of others.
Purple smoke billowed throughout their surroundings, consuming every inch of the earth behind them. They tried to outrun it, to stay ahead of the death-like smell and the smoke that followed. But there was no use. It was quicker than they were, and before any of them knew what was happening,everything went black.
It wasn't until Brody woke the next morning that he had realized what had happened. That it was meant to happen this way. So much for keeping two shields in front of him. So much for opening himself up to Alice. So much for tolerating December for as long as he had agreed to. Someone had other plans.
As he stirred, he noticed the others around him. He wasn't too familiar, having never really talked to him during his time in the Training Center. He was too focused on reeling in Alice, but he knew them by name and by district, at least. Tex and Andrew. Eleven and Twelve. Obviously they were skilled enough to still be alive. But he wondered if they knew how unlucky they were to have woken up with Brody between them.
He pushes himself to his feet and without even realizing, he's already drawn his new blade. It makes a nice sound as it slices through the air, and he runs his thumb along the name engraved along the hilt. Ramsey Robichaux, it reads and Brody grins from ear to ear. How sweet of them to remember.
The others start to wake and Brody relishes in his ability to always rise early. In this case, it may just save his life. That and the incessant urge to carve into them should get him out of this alive, right? It's odd, actually, the amount of pure rage that fills him as he circles around the other boys.
"This should be fun, yeah?" He rears back and lunges at Tex first, vision going full red as the anticipation of his blade meeting flesh swells in his chest and travels down his arm to his hand. "Well, for me anyway." Brody shifts his stance, spins the sword around once, twice, three times and then goes for Andrew next. Either way, one of them will die by his hand today.
But preferably both.
