After being attacked from all sides I fled the scene. The scene of the blood bath where who knows how many people actually died. I think it still went well. I got out alive. Which is good. I made it past the blood bath. I am pretty sure my allies did too. I wipe sweat off of my face. It was hot, and humid in this maze. The tall hedges oh how creepy they looked. I bet I could climb them, but knowing the game makers that would put a instant target on my back, clearly the game maker did not like me anyways because I got a six on my private training session. I am walking along perhaps hungry, but my adrenaline was covering it up. I actually did not have a game plan. Well if you include holding on to my great axe while I walk then yes I do, but that is besides the point. Right now I am walking through the hedges trying to find a way out, if there is a way out. I get bored while walking do a few cartwheels and continue to walk aimlessly. I don't know if I will run into an ally or a enemy I just keep walking. Day one in the games and I am completely lost as to what to do now...

When I keep walking I look at the hedges a bit. Perhaps something will catch me surprise or something. I don't know. I feel pretty decently bruised up, but I won't stop walking away from the blood bath. Away from the blood the chaos. NO even though I am just walking I still want to be away from the mess. To survive another day. I Look oh a blue leaf. Hmm interesting. I pass it. Then the thought occurs to me I recognized it from some where. It is a medicinal plant! I turn around quick. My smile is lit back on as I pluck the leaf gently with one hand. I give a small sigh of relief. I grab one more bundle of medicinal plants knowing I can only carry one more thing I decide food would be my next decision.

One more goddamn day when I know what I want
And my want will be considered tonight, considered tonight
Just another day when all that I want
Will mark me as a sinner tonight, I'm a sinner tonight, yeah

It feels weird. Two fights on the first day. Is that even normal? It just happened to quickly. First, I'm in the bloodbath and barely survive, and then I get into another fight and get even closer to death! I didn't know the Games were this bad. Why did you have to get me all pumped for them, Dad?
I can't believe it's only been 4 or 5 days since they took me. It just doesn't feel right. Then I realize I've arrived at a dead end. I back up and take the nearest exit.

People can no longer cover their eyes
If this disturbs you then walk away
You will remember the night you were struck by the sight of
Ten Thousand fists in the air

As I continue walking done the new, hopefully right, path, I mentally count all the dead tributes since the beginning. If my memory's still intact, I remember there being 5 canon explosions at the end of the bloodbath, and then I watched Siana die, I think. HOLY CRAP! Six all already dead! That's 1/4 of the tributes! I need to step up my game! After realizing that, I grip onto my axe and push myself to find my allies quicker, even though I lost an ear and broke something. I'm still going to go through the pain.

Power un-restrained dead on the mark
Is what we will deliver tonight, deliver tonight
Pleasure fused with pain this triumph of the soul
will make you shiver tonight, will make you shiver tonight, yeah

Then I see a familiar face as I make another turn. I can't think of any names, but I know he's one of my allies. Someone I can trust. "Hey! Am I glad to see you!" I say as I come wincing up. I finally remember the name: Darren, District 1, age 14. I remember him saying that from the training sessions. And then I see something move behind him, about a hundred meters back, and I grip my axe a little tighter, just wanting to stay alive.

We are the ones that will open your mind
Leave the weak and the haunted behind

Ten Thousand fists in the air

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive!

It was still unbelievable, I just couldn't process what I had just witnessed, what I had just let happen. I just watched Siana Felies die. I'm still coming to terms with it, I don't think I'll ever forget it, I just stood there and yelled as those three savages brutally attacked her and murdered her. I couldn't do anything, I was weak, I was afraid. I'm out of breath, as I gaps for air and look around, the gigantic hedges, I hate it here, there's already been death, too much death, and I've contributed and witnessed it. It's going to linger in my mind forever. I'm gasping and wheezing for breath as I continue trudging through this stupid maze, I want to create as much space between me and the other tributes as possible.

As I continue walking quickly, this is the downside of being crippled, I've barely ever exercised in my life, no work for me, and now I'm paying the price for it, I'm already out of breath, my arms are aching from holding my long sword and this heavy purse for so long, it hurts quite a bit but I have to get through the pain, the pain of losing my ally despite me wanting to curl up in a ball and sob, but sobbing won't help at all. I sigh as I look up to the sky, they are watching, District ten is watching, those bullies are watching the twig warrior pushing through pain.

And then I see him, no them. That boy from two who tried to save Siana and that back flipping boy from one. I see Kyle and I'm filled with an unimaginable anger and rage. He tried to save my ally and I couldn't, he showed me up by playing the hero. And he failed. And with that thought on my mind I swing my longsword at him.

"She didn't deserve to die! You simply failed to save her and you're a career! Why?! Why?!" I scream, my voice filled with nothing but rage and hatred towards this guy, this kid who failed to save Siana despite being a 'career'.

"You sicken me...

HOPELESS

something stops me from seeing too clear
a misty haze floats 'round the room
the murmurs make it hard to hear
the voices and the words

"She's better with a sword than we thought. Maybe she is dangerous..."

Eden is dead. As I turn a corner in the madness of the maze I see her face in my head. She looks at me with disappointment. I made her a promise that I'd have her back, and I was too busy trying to kill Linus to stop that Lucy girl stabbing her in the neck. A moment of incompetence cost me a friend. How can Cassie and Shadow trust me now? They can't, it's simple. They follow me, but I dart left around a corner. White has turned black, and they don't want such a tainted soul leading them. They can't trust me.

A cannon booms overhead, and then another consecutively. Five shots are fired in the end, signifying that five tributes died in the Bloodbath. That so much less than usual. I expected more to die. Red faced I turn another corner, my name being called out from behind. Cassie and Shadow are looking for me, but they'll never find me. I'll vanish from their lives, just like I vanished from Rubik's. I've made far too many mistakes, I'm not making any more. This blackened spirit needs to be cleansed. I need to find the right path again.

Right and wrong. It's always down to the black and white decisions that define me.
"Wha-... What is this...?" I pant as I turn a corner to find another dead end. This maze is a death trap. The Gamemakers have clearly designed it to lead to more slaughter. It's more of a bloodbath than the Cornucopia was. Fleeing the carnage only leads to more mayhem. It's a well designed but vicious cycle.

One wrong turn could send me to my death. The last thing I want is to be swamped by a group of tributes, particularly now that I have put distance between myself and the duo from Five. I am vulnerable, just like the Capitol depicted me in their promos during my week in the training center. What do they know, anyway?

Alone, I take a left and find myself at a dead end. I quickly turn on my feet, darting the other way. Don't get trapped. Coming to a crossroads I have to make a decision quickly. I turn right, because I've been doing what's right since I volunteered... But it's the wrong decision, again, and I find myself running into a large group of tributes. Instantly my sword is at the ready. White is gone and black has filled me. I helped to kill Linus, my own district partner. There is no good inside of me any more. The shame burns, but it's a shame I must live with, if I am to go far.

My heart was still beating fast as I ran through the maze, carrying Siana's items in my hands. It would be nice to get away from the madness but it seemed that nothing could stop my fate today. I turned a corner and lone behold found nothing but more tributes. Oh hell.

"Couldn't stay away from me, now could you? Not very smart, but I guess you never seemed that wise. Do you like the taste of death?" I ask with a sneer as I lunge at another body.

I'm waking up, I feel it in my bones
Enough to make my systems blow
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Welcome to the new age, to the new age
Whoa, whoa, I'm radioactive, radioactive!

Murder; the unlawful premeditated killing of one human being by another.

And just like that I made my first kill of the games, all with one stroke of a blade I ended his life. I can't believe I actually did that, all in a quick fit of anger I ended his life quickly, I'm not sure how I can even justify my actions. The twig warrior is a killer... He was dying anyway wasn't he? But he got all his wounds trying to defend Siana, but he still failed. But so did I, I didn't even do anything for most of that fight, but at least he tried. Anger and fear still cloud my judgement, the District one boy looks surprised as Kyle falls to the floor and his canon sounds.

Am I a murderer? Didn't I just commit a murder by slicing my blade through the back of his head? I didn't even plan it I just did it when I saw him. My hands are shaking and I look like I'm going to drop my sword, I fear instant retaliation from the District one career. However before anymore blows can be exchanged the District one boy is attacked by a girl, it takes me a moment to register what's going on through my clouded mind. Killer! Murderer! Executioner! Slayer! I want to deny that I'm all of those things but I can't. I killed him with no mercy. The boy from one is slashed on the shoulder by... the girl from eight. Hope. Hope Woodards. She just came and attacked the poor kid, oh ripred what have I started?

Before the boy can retaliate further he's jumped by yet another tribute, the same girl, Kyle's district partner. Siana's killer, isn't she the one I should've attacked? She slashes the boy's arm deeply with that knife, staining it with more blood, all I can do is just stand here and watch events unfold as the career finally gets his bearings back and proceeds to cut the girl across the chest. Oh ripred this is madness, they are all fighting and killing each other like savages. No I can't say they are, I'm one of them, I killed him, I'm reminded about this when I look down and see Kyle's corpse, nothing on the body but an axe. I'm getting back to rational thinking now, what I've done is sinking in slowly. I'm a killer. Is this what Mace felt on his first kill? He killed many tributes after all.

Kyle's death plays over in my mind; one minute he's walking and the next he's dead, I just slashed his head just like that and he just died. All because he failed to do something I didn't have the guts to do. He'll never laugh again, fight again, cry again, all because of me...

I know that if I stay any longer I might get attacked and I'm relatively unharmed at the moment and I plan to keep it that way. However before I leave I see Kyle's axe on the floor, I scoop it up and get out of there, sprinting as fast as I can to take myself out of the situation. Somewhere in District two there is a family that knows they'll never see their loved one again, all because of me. I continue running, my longsword and Kyle's axe weighing me down.

I deserve whatever ill fate awaits me in this arena.

HOPELESS

something stops me from seeing too clear
a misty haze floats 'round the room
the murmurs make it hard to hear
the voices and the words

"She's better with a sword than we thought. Maybe she is dangerous..."

The hedges tower either side of me, and the wall of tributes stand in front of me. I am trapped in a square with no escape but to fight my way through. I try, to no avail, my attacks not quite getting through. There's certainly strength in numbers, and I've never been more alone. When I sat in that bathtub after my training session, I told myself I was alone in this, that I'd do this on my own. Losing Eden is proof that I'm not capable of watching out for anyone but myself.

Pandora fled on his own, and it wasn't until later that day that Cyrus Malloc took him in and helped him to survive. There's safety in numbers, but I can't be dealing with the pressures that numbers bring. People turn to me like I'm a leader, just because I volunteered. I don't want to be here any more than they do. I'm fed up with trying to justify myself to people.

And then he's there. Some kid who's face I vaguely recognise emerges from the pack, fighting his way through. He gives me a glance but attacks someone else. In that glance I see mercy, I see a fierce determination, I see someone with hunger. I respect that. I can understand that.

My eyes widen as I watch the scene in front of me. The game makers couldn't get enough of me today, could they? "Enough is enough! I don't have time for this...." I sneer, turning my back on the dead boy and his idiot friend and running back the way I came.

I got this huge gash on my right arm. It stung. I know I am hurt awfully. Her chest was bleeding badly. The person who I sliced. I was being ambushed. I hated this feeling. It Sucked. I am fleeing. I have to leave. I hope I can leave I try and get away. I don’t think I can. I keep trying. I must flee. Then they all leave as fast as they came. I am left with nothing, but my allies body. I kneal down for a moment clothes his eyes. I don’t do much more. I am disgusted at these kids. I start to walk away. I turn to look at Kyle for a second more, than I flee as quickly as the rest. I Put on some of the plants sloppily on my fore arm. I pinch together open cuts as I ran, With a few tears going down my face, and I know I have lost something.... I know I am sorry....
