A parachute shifts jaggedly through the wind, slowly signaling a gift. Day 8. 4 tributes left. And this is the first time someone out there thought I might come home.
Oh, I just killed someone.
Whatever it is, I don’t need it. But the bright light whose color matches my blood soaked hands goes towards it and lures me over. I grab it and open it to reveal a small brass bell with an attached fabric loop. There’s a note in the parachute as well.
Breath. We are right here waiting. -Kirito
I crumple it up in my fist. The fucking audacity. Kirito didn’t help me or prepare me. He didn’t teach me or speak to me, now I might win and he wants to take credit for my success.
Success is a poor choice of word.
Time goes on and eventually the anthem blares out. I’m nervous to see the names above.
Nanette. I recognize her from one of my first fights, she was Revan’s ally.
Lorraine. That the girl I was scared of. I thought she’s might have been the end of Coach and I.
Syd. I take a gasp. Everyone I came in with, is dead. Syd outlived his welcome and I’m glad he’s dead. But I also feel like something was taken from me. I should’ve been the one to avenge Benedict and Coach, But he got what he deserved, far too late.
Sin. The moment his face appears in the sky, I turn over onto the ground. Forcing the thoughts of guilt and loss away from my mind.
And for the first time since coming to this damned arena, I actually sleep.
I wake up with a vendetta. There’s four of us left, and I’m sick of waiting to be found. I’m sick of the walkers, stalking my steps. It’s time to end this. So I’m forcing through the pain of my fresh bullet wounds and hunting,
It’ll end where it all began. The cornucopia.
The looming cell tower grows exponentially as I get closer to it. The sun reflects blinding rays off of it.
And I’m not the first one there. The girl from seven is. I honestly haven
t thought of her consciously in a long time. But there she is, beating the odds just like me. Before she turns to see me, I lift up my gun and press my temple against it, staring daggers down the barrel. With a breath, the arena falls completely silent until the bullet cracks through the wind.Table by Dars
