Tony and Peter watched from the stark industries bunker. Hydra had taken over the country and renamed it Panem- ‘weird name’ thought Tony. “And as a reminder to the districts about how they dared to fight the capitol, each year we will implement a hunger games, where each district will offer up one young man and one young woman aged 12-18 Every 25 years there will be a quarter quell- which will include a fun twist. Thank you and remember Panem Today, Panem Tomorrow, Panem Forever.” Concluded president Schmitt. “You're 15.” Said Tony “I’m 16- plus of all the kids in our district- what did they call it- district 3? I won’t get picked!” Said Peter.

Chapter Text

Peter Parker was dressed in his best suit. One leftover from before the war, most of the stuff he owned was before the war- including his house. He lived in the same apartment with his aunt, and Tony. Hydra had immediately demolished Tony’s house and since Pepper died in the war Tony and Morgan moved in with Peter and May. Today was the Reaping, and Peter was the reaping age- 16.
“They turned the 4th of July into a day where you fear your children die.” Tony Sighed “it’s times like this where I really Regret making weapons for this country.”

Once Peter was checked in he stood in the area designated for Males. A woman from the capitol Called Lilac Trinket walked on to the stage. “Hello! Welcome to the 1st ever hunger games! Before we start, let's play a very special film from the capitol!”

The screen sprang to life
“War..,.. Terrible war. With those..,.. Orphan..,.. and a motherless child. This was the uprising that rocked our land. Thirteen districts rebelled against the country that fed them, Loved them. Protected them. Brother turned on brother until nothing remained. Then came the peace. Hard fought. Sorely won. The people. Rose up from the ashes and a new era was born. But freedom has a cost. And the traitors were defeated. We swore as a nation we would never know this treason again. And so it was decreed..,.. That each year. The various districts of Panem would offer up in tribute One young man and woman to fight to the death in a pageant of honor, courage and sacrifice. The lone victor..,.. Bathed in riches..,.. would serve as a reminder of our generosity and our forgiveness. This is how we remember our past. This is how we safeguard our future.”
‘The video editing could use some work..’ Peter thought Privately
“Oh how festive! Anyways Ladies first!” Her heels clicked as she walked along the stage. “Oooh okay drum-roll please! The Female Tribute from District 3 is… Kate Bishop!” There was a scream from the audience
“Kate! No, not my baby!!.” screamed a woman as Kate walked out, tears were streaming down her face.
“Come on up dear! And now for the boys, The Male tribute from District 3 is Peter Parker.”
“PETER!!! NO! NO! PLEASE NO!” Aunt May's screams made it worse. Peter's feet moved and he trudged up to the stage.
“Please give it up for the District 3 tributes!!” called out lilac

White uniformed peacekeepers had led Peter into a room. When the door burst open and aunt May walked in.
“It will be okay! You’ll Be okay. Hide, Find food and water. I love you Peter, I love you so much.”
“I love you to May. It will be okay- Mr Stark will look after you, plus I have really good instincts. I can lift really heavy things and I'm good at climbing! I'll be fine.” peter put emphasis on certain words

“Yeah.. oh! Oh you mean your! Your thing!’ She exclaimed. Peter nodded and held a finger up to his mouth.
“I love you May.” Just then a peace keeper entered
“Times up.” May walked out and Tony walked in.
“Hey Kid. This is important. You- you can't let them know about your Powers. Use it obviously but don't let them know you're using it- You don't want them using you.”
“There's probably bugs! Why did you say that out loud!”
“I have a device so we can't be listened to.” He said holding up a small coin like object. “Hey kid- i really do like you, so i hope you make it.”
“I like you too Tony.” Peter smiled and Tony smiled back.

Then he left. Then Ned entered, and they just sat together for 3 minutes, until Ned was taken too. The final person to be taken was MJ. Right after thanos- when they were brought back by Hulk and Thor killed Thanos, Aunt May was struggling and working for Feast. Tony was caught up by Pepper's death, And being a single dad. Peter lived at school. Him and MJ had grown close, their friendship grew to a relationship. Noone really cared because they weren't popular but they were happy. She ran up and hugged him.
“I love you, Please try to win, Please” she breathed
“I will, I will. It's gonna be okay.”
“Goodbye, Peter.”
“Love you MJ” Said Peter refusing to say goodbye. And then she was gone.

Then Peter was ushered into a car. If he had lived in district 3 for his whole life he supposed this would be a novelty- but it wasn't, he had been in many cars throughout his life. Moments after he was buckled in Kate Bishop was shoved in the car, considering her bruised face and dazed look Peter had a feeling she tried to fight.

“Hi, I’m Peter.”
“I’m Kate.”

They said nothing for the rest of the drive

Amory featherwick was a capitol citizen who lived in a luxury apartment. She was excited because today was the first hunger game! Originally they were going to round up the tributes, keep them in the zoo and then throw them in a colosseum, everyone found that dreadfully boring so instead the gamemakers built a ´Wildlife arena’ and it was a secret on what it was. 

Amory was now waiting for the first reaping. Just as she thought it the TV crackled to life and Lucky flickerman appeared on stage with bright purple hair and a radiant smile

“Hello and welcome to the first ever Hunger Games! The first reaping we have today is from District 1!” the screen cut to a courtyard where girls in bright dresses and boys in nice suits all stood. A capitol woman walked up to the stage.

“Happy Hunger Games!” She squealed exitedly. There was then an odd cut. As if they had cut a bit of video out. And the lady said

“Ladies First!” She fished a piece of paper out of the bowl with her long nails. 

“America Chaves! Come on up dear!” 

The camera cut to a Latina girl wearing a light blue dress and flats. The editors seem to have added a weird blue sparkly filter to her hands. 

The girl was crying! Crying at such a wonderful opportunity!

“And now for the males!” Said the woman

She picked out a piece of paper and read out

“Billy maximoff!” 

The camera did a cut to a boy. You could hear some muffled screaming of a woman in the distance. The camera went back and it cut back to lucky.

“Oh we appeared to have lost visuals on district 1. On to district 2.”

There was another capitol woman on stage. This courtyard had slightly less colorful outfits. Everything was the same as district until they pulled names.

“Phyla Vell” 

The camera cut to a girl who was apparently at ease. Her face was a bit blank as she walked to the stage.

“And now for the boys, Eli Bradley.”

The camera cut to a black boy. Who took a deep breath and walked over to the stage.

The same thing happened in all the districts. Amory drew out a spreadsheet of all the tributes

District 1- America Chaves (16), Billy Maximoff (12)

District 2- Phyla Vell (14), Eli Bradley (15)

District 3- Kate Bishop (17), Peter Parker(16)

District 4-Kamala Khan (17), Cooper Barton (13)

District 5-Cassie lang (18), Love odinson (12)

District 6- Ana Melek (12), Ryan Aurthur (12)

District 7-Layla Tracy (12), Jack Mason (14)

District 8- Ian Rogers (12), Lylac Paylor (18)

District 9- Benjamin Tones (12), Sylvia Elk (12)

District 10- Tristan Spark (13), Maria Micheal (12)

District 11-Riri Williams (18), T'challa Udaku jnr

District 12-Patricia Everdeen(12), Georgie Hawethorne

The twelve year olds had the smallest chance. Personally Anory was betting on district 3 to bring the win.

Chapter 5:

Peter stared at the spear he was holding. He didn’t really use weapons when fighting mainly just hand to hand combat- if he did they were guns or weaponised webs.He didn’t have web blasters in the arena, and he had been informed that guns also weren’t available. His mentor (a capitol citezen call Goldie) had said to play to his strengths but Tony had said to not show his powers. Suddenly a thought popped into peters head What if I use my powers without showing them! If I throw rocks and stuff with my super strength people won’t immediately think I’m a super hero unless I do something stupid like throw a tree at someone! And if I use my climbing powers to climb trees no one will think that I have superpowers! Use don’t show!

He threw the spear and it hit the dummy in the arm. He walked to the agility training stand. It was a timed obstacle course. He started his time and quickly scaled the rock wall. He jumped over the hurdles and climed the ramp, before jumping from tile to tile. He sprinted across the finish line.

“Your time is 1:30! That’s a new record!” Called the trainer. Peter fist bumped the air. 

Training went on for 3 days. Peter mainly did the survival skills training, although he was getting okay at knife combat. He also watched his competitors. Kate Bishop was rather timid. She didn’t seem to be able to lift heavy things. Also she for some reason was avoiding the bow and agility stations at all costs, he saw her try to pick up a sword only for her to drop it. He ranked her pretty low on the threat list. the 12 year olds weren’t really a threat, except Love Odinson and Billy Maximoff. Love, despite her young age was really good at wielding an axe. She also has really good aim with throwing knives. Billy had dodge skills almost rivaling his own! 

Patrica Everdeen- another 12 year old, was very proficient at the bow and arrow, but bow and arrow wasn’t really a threat with his spider sense. The Hawethorne boy was good at traps, but that wouldn’t be a problem with his spider sense. The other 12 year olds just cried in a corner.

There was only 4, 13 year olds. 

Tristan Spark had no skills of note, and mainly just walked around lost. The other 3 however- had a connection to Peter,

Cooper Barton was the son of Clint Barton/Hawkeye. You could tell from his shooting skills. there was T’Challa jnr, Peter had fought Thanos with his dad.

And then there was Ian. Ian Rogers was the only other kid at Avengers compound. The son of Natasha and Steve, Born 5 years before the blip. He was surely skilled, with both black widow and captain America training him at a young age. Peter hoped that he wouldn’t have to kill him, especially with Steve and Natasha watching from the sidelines.

The 2, 14 year olds had no Skills that Peter noted, however Phyla seemed a bit deranged- she kept muttering something in a foreign language that sounded like “sool sool”.

The one 15 year old was a kid called Eli Bradley, he was pretty strong, and was throwing the whieghts around everywhere.

There was 1 16 year old other than Peter. America Chaves- and she seemed violent but not a threat, she tried to fight a guard on the first day of training, but was led away.

Other than Kate there was one other 17 year old named Kamala. She seemed unassuming and clumsy but Peter suspected something off. No one was watching but she got scared by a knife bounce back and some sort of light distortion came out of her hand. And once he could have sworn that her arm got slightly longer for a split second so she could catch it.

The 18 year olds were Peter's biggest threat. Cassie Lang seemed smart but didn’t focus on combat. Lylac paylor seemed to have formed a group with districts 8, 9 and 10 and was very good at leading them. Riri Williams was also very smart- and reminded him of Tony. 

He also noticed a few groups forming, the aforementioned 8,9,10 alliance. An alliance between the younger kids was also forming- Billy, Cooper, Love, Slyvia, Ana and T’challa. He also noticed a rivalry between the ‘smart girls’ Riri and Cassie seemed to refuse to talk to each other at lunch

The tribute scores were released on Friday. 

America Chaves got a 5. Peter thought it was odd that her score was so high. From his point of view she didn’t seem to do much. Billy Maximoff got a 6- which was a decent score, which made sense if he showed off his skills with dodging. Phyla Vell got a 3- No surprises there thought Peter And then he cringed at the thought. That girl didn’t want to be there, it wasn't her fault! Why was he thinking like this? Eli Bradley got a 4.

Kate Bishop got a 7- Peter wondered what she could have shown off. And then Peters score- During the training session he had done the agility stair ion and some knife throwing.- He stared at the screen, and a golden Nine appeared! That was the highest score so far!

“Good job Peter!!” Squealed Goldie excitedly 

Kamala Khan got a 10! That was a big surprise- she would be a threat. 

“Watch out for her!” Said Goldie.

Copper Barton got a 7, which if he had lessons from his dad it made sense. Cassie Lang Got an 8, Peter could have sworn the name Lang was framilliar! Love Odinson got a 7. All the tributes from district 6 and 7 got 3s. Ian got an 8. Lylac, Benjamin and Slyvia all got 5s. The district 10 tributes got 1s. Riri Williams got a 4. T'challa Got a 7. The district 12 tributes both got 7s.

There was no time to dwell on the scores because the second they were over Peter was rushed to a prep room to get ready for the interviews.

After being bathed they combed peters hair and put him in a suit, it was black but had LED lights that looked like gemstones. They brought him back stage and he sat and wait. There were a few boys all dressed in various coloured suits backstage but no girls. 

The first girl appeared an hour later- it was Kate Bishop. She was wearing a tight black silk gown that was covered in the same glowing gemstones as peters suit. Her makeup and the same rainbow lights stuck to her cheeks in two lines. Her hair was done up in a high ponytail.

After Kate’s entrance the girls started to trickle in none with anythibg fancy

The next girl that had an interesting dress was America Chaves. Her stylist seemed to really take into account her name. The bodice was blood red and covered in glitter- on her left shoulder there was a huge white tool snd red glitter sleeve big enough that it almost blocked her face.and the skirt was a deep navy, it reminded Peter of the Disney princesses skirts.

The very last girl to enter was Kamala Kahn, she was wearing a light blue dress with seashells and starfish glued onto the skirt. Her hair was in a bun and a veil of fishing net fell behind her. He heard the music que and the voice of Lucky Flikerman start to play 

“Welcome to the first ever HUNGER GAMES!!! Today we will see the tributes for the first time since the reaping! And we will get up close and personal! The first tribute up is America Chaves!” 

America walked up to Lucky and sat in the chair opposite him.

“Now America… THAT DRESS!” Exclaimed Lucky.

America Giggled 

“Do you know what inspired the dress?” Asked Lucky

America giggled again 

“My name of course! Considering it’s only been 6 months since the war, I’m sure we all know that before the delightful Panem, the country was called America- the original flag of America was Red, White and Blue. My stylist chose this dress for a very specific reason.” America smiled

“Why did she choose it?” Asked Lucky raising an eyebrow. America stood up and walked to the front of the stage. She pressed a button and a light exploded. When the light disappeared her dress was white, with black and orange tye-die blotches. It was more form fitting then the ball gown. 

“It represents the time’s changing.” America Smirked. Peter Noticed though that the second she walked off stage her smile fell and she seemed rather upset.

Day 1- The games 

On July 7th the tributes rose up from their tubes into our areana. The pedastels are in a clearing  aranged in a circle around the golden conrnucopia. The areana itself is a huge jungle. The trees are covered in moss and tower over the cornucopia. Distantly the tributes can hear birds chirping. A female voice rings out counting down from ten. At 3, Jack Mason (district 7) got to excited- he jumped off early and his pedastol blew up. He is the first death of the hunger games. 

When the gong sounded most people ran for the cornucopia. Kate bishop, Peter Parker (district 3), riri Williams (district 11) , Cassie Lang(district 5), and Phyla Vell (district 2) all ran away from the cornucopia into the forest.

Both tributes from District 3 got a backpack that was further away 

Riri Williams made away with a long knife.

Cassie Lang got a backpack.

Phyla Vell did not get anything from the cornocopia.

After a minute it is clear that the people that ran from the cornucopia were the smart ones. In total 9 people died in the bloodbath alone. After getting what they needed most people ran. A group of mainly younger tributes however stayed by the cornucopia. They drove off anyone else that tried to stay. Everyone spent most of the day walking away. 

Ian Rogers and Lylac Patlor were the only survivors out of districts 8,9 and 10, they stuck together and found shelter by a nearby tree. Lylac made a fire while Ian gathered nuts and Fruit. 

“They never clarified if we were a team or not.” Said Lylac

“What do you mean?” Ian asked her confusedly

“Well, we are in the same district. So if we are the last left- what happens?”

“One sole Victor remains. That’s what they said. Maybe if we are from the swim district they will let us- don’t count on it though.” 

Viewers are reminded that Ian Rogers is correct. Only 1 victor can remain, even if the final 2 are from the same home district.

Peter Parker remained on his quest alone. After walking for 2 hours he found a tall tree. Sitting at the base of it he inspected the contents of his backpack. Inside were the items as followed

1 standard serrated knife

2 plain loaves of white bread

½ pound of cheese

1 black hoodie

1 tub of burn healing ointment 

1 roll of duct tape 

1 roll of clear plastic 

5 meter length of rope

He put on the hoodie and packed everything back in the bag. He wore the backpack and grabbed a hanging vine. Ever so slowly he climed the tree just barley managing to find his grip. When he got to a big enough branch he took the rope and tied himself and his bag to the tree. 

Kamala khan, Cassie lang, and Riri Williams also climbed trees. Riri however , had a companion. She seemed to have immediately grabbed T'challa jnr and dragged him away. 

“Listen here. Me, your auntie and your mom are all really good friends. If I go home and you don’t, they won’t forgive me. If I have any say in this you’ll get out of here. You won’t risk your neck with any alliances.”

T’challa nodded, he looked rather scared of the girl.

America Chaves found a cave and hid. She had 2 backpacks, a knife and a chainmail armor chest piece.

Billy, Cooper and Tristan had claimed the cornucopia as night fell they created a roaring fire. As they were settling down and deciding who would take watch, the horn of Panem shook the land. It rang out almost deafening. The capitol seal appeared and underneath was written ‘the fallen tributes’

This slideshow is the first of many exciting twists the capitol has implemented! Every night at dusk a projection will show in the sky. A picture of whoever died and their district underneath. This helps inform the tributes of who’s eliminated and gives the audience a good recap incase they missed the last episode! 

The earliest district to appear is district 5. Their female tribute was eliminated. Both district 6 tributes were eliminated. Both district 7 tributes were eliminated. Both district 9 tributes were eliminated. The female district 10 tribute was eliminated. The male district 12 tribute was eliminated. The oldest tribute to be eliminated so far is jack mason (14 years, 2 months ) the youngest is love odinson (12 years, 13 days)

-Deaths so far-

District 5-Love odinson (12)

District 6- Ana Melek (12), Ryan Aurthur (12)

District 7-Layla Tracy (12), Jack Mason (14)

District 9- Benjamin Tones (12), Sylvia Elk (12)

District 10- Maria Micheal (12)

District 12- Georgie Hawethorne(12)

Day 2- the games

The morning starts off very chill. Billy Maximoff is the first to wake up from the mini alliance of him, cooper and Tristan. He seemed to have a headache and ventured into the cornucopia, he emerged holding a flask and some bottles of pills.

Peter Parker awoke at around 8:00 am. He untied himself and climbed to the next tree over, and started climbing higher and higher. Until he got to the top. Here he gets a bird eye view of the arena. The majority of the arena is covered in jungle, but not all of it. To the south east of the cornucopia there’s a huge cliff side. And to the north west was a large clearing with a lake in the middle.

Peter appeared to have spotted the lake and climbs down. He packs his stuff and starts heading towards the lake.

Lylac and Ian decided to get as far away from the cornucopia as possible. A large bird landed  in the tree next to her, it looked a bit like an eagle but with a sharp pointed beak, similar to a hummingbird’s. Ian notices it and looks at it, raising a spear he fashioned out of a whittled branch as if to kill it. Suddenly it leptforward right toward them, talons first. Lylac screamed and started running, Ian following closely after. Lylac was too slow. 

The Eagle like bird sunk its beak into her beautiful brown face. The talons sunk into her body, Ian ran foward and stabbed the bird through the heart, but it was too late. Her brown eyes found his blue and he brushed a bloodstained braid out of her face and stroked her face.

“Why?” She asked tears mixing with the blood, her light green shirt was stained now. 

“No.. Lylac, please no..” said ian pain in his voice.

The girl's shuddering stopped and she stilled. The light left her eyes.

A canon sounded

“No.. Lylac no..” cried Ian. But it was to late. Her shirt was fully bloodstained. Ian’s tears fell and mixed with her blood. He noticed something gleam from around her neck. He pulled it out, it was a heart locket. He pocketed it.

All the other tributes flinch when they hear the canon. Kate Bishop actually trips and falls over, face first into the lake. She then surfaces and looks around, a gasp escaping her lips.

“Water!” She ran to where the river met the lake and walked up it until she found a small waterfall. Drinking from there she put some in a small canteen she had from around the cornucopia and filled it before disappearing into the jungle again. 

America Chaves left the cave she was sleeping in and started foraging for food. 15 minutes in she looked up as if she heard a noise. a knife came soaring at her from above. She dodged the knife and looked in its direction. Riri Williams climbed down from a nearby tree, grabbed the knife and started chasing her. America ran. She ran like the wind. 

- Americas POV-

America ran through the heavy jungle as fast as she could-  her powers were going to kick in, any day now! She ran looking for an escape. The knife was thrown again. This time it hit her backpack. She took the knife and threw it back at the girl from 11. The knife landed to the far left of the girl and she kept running until she tripped over a vine. As she fell, she noticed that everything felt strange for a second, as she was falling through a portal. When she landed she was thoroughly disoriented. She looked up, this universe was like the world before the games. She appeared to be in New York of some sort..

“Who.. are you?” Asked a man with black and white hair- he was wearing a blue suit with a 4 embellished on it.

“I’m America Chaves.. who are you?” She asked standing up.

“I’m Reed Richards… of the fantastic 4 and illuminati- how did you get here, and why?”

-Capitol POV-

The end of the chase unfortunately went into a camera dead spot, so we didn’t know what happened at first. But then Lucky Flickerman came on screen for an announcement.

“America Chaves has unfortunately violated the rules by escaping the arena. This is a treasonous move and shall be punished. She is eliminated from the games If you spot her please alert peacekeepers immediately. She is incredibly dangerous so do not approach or engage. Thank you.”

We then cut back to Riri who looks thoroughly confused- and then she jumps when a cannon goes off. Shrugging- assuming America died  from falling or something she walks back to the tree where T’challa is. 

“Did you get her?” Asked T’challa

“I don’t know, we should start looking for water though.”

She is not the only one who thought this. Most of the 13 alive tributes had this thought.

Cassie Lang was the first to achieve it. She had been wandering in the woods for most of the day and stumbled upon an abandoned shack- the canopy hid it from Birds Eye view enough where most people wouldn’t find it. She walked up to the door and inspected it. There was a lock and a puzzle. 

Viewers are told that this is a math oriented puzzle. The buttons on the keypad are all math answers. The screen above the keypad will show a math problem that she must solve. She has 60 seconds to answer all nine questions. If she gets one wrong the entire thing resets and she has to do it again. After 5 tries she will be locked out. If she gets in however then she has access to food, water and a bed for 12 hours. Other tributes will be unable to access this cabin while she is inside- she will also have a tv with access to the raw hunger games livestream- no commentators just raw footage. The unedited stuff we play at night while the crew gets rest.

Cassie hits the start button on the keypad and the rules are explained. She shrugs and hits play. The first few questions appear to be easy, but it’s the 8th question that stumps her. She tries again- this time getting to the 9th but ultimately failing. Her third try however- is successful, the door unlocks and Cassie goes inside. She is shocked at how amazing it is. She gathers water and other things into her backpack and turns on the footage. She watches the other tributes for a while and then falls asleep in the bed provided.

Nothing else really happens for the rest of the night- although Kamala seemed upset at the fact that America and Layla were both eliminated that day.

Chapter Text

The first person to wake up was Cassie lang. She wakes up and immediately gathers extra food and water into her bag before leaving the cabin. She climbs a tree and starts going from branch to branch.

The next people to wake up are Billy Maximoff and Cooper Barton, they are having a heated argument.

“There’s less than half of us left! If we kill now we have more food to last us.” Argued Cooper in a whisper

“He hasn’t provoked us. I’m against killing.” Billy retorted

“This is the hunger games, we have to kill someone- it’s not like the law will punish us.” Argued cooper back

“Fine, you want to kill him- go ahead. I’m not going to stick around for it, so much for you being a great avenger- you’re dad wouldn’t have ever done it.”

“My dads dead- he jumped off a cliff for an orange rock, my dad of all people would understand that sometimes sacrifices need to be made.” There were tears in Cooper's eyes.

“You’re dad jumped off a cliff himself. He didn’t push Natasha off a cliff- he fought to die, leaving you here, thinking he taught you enough to be a decent human- but you know what? He was wrong! Here’s the proof, you trying to kill someone unprovoked. You are a cold blooded killer- your dad believed in you and you failed . You-” his last words were cut off by a punch. Cooper was beating chin not giving up. He grabbed a sword from the pile of supplies and bashed the handle into Billy’s skull, the boy's screams were cut off by a cannon. By now Tristan had woken up and was caught in the fray. Billy slashed at his face leaving a deep gash. As Tristan tried to stem the flow Cooper grabbed a backpack and ran.

Peter Parker reached the lake first. He sat on the bank and started trying to construct a canteen out of duct tape. 

Meanwhile just a little bit farther than the bank, Kate bishop was foraging for food. She had found a few berries and leaves she knew were safe but nothing sustainable on its own. She heard a whooshing above her and looked up. A long silver canister with a parachute fell at her feet. She opened it- guessing (correctly) that it was a sponsor parachute. She shook out the contents. A spool of string used for making bows fell out along with 30 arrows. Kate pulled a small note- ‘your all we have left- Mockingbird and her 2 chicks.’ Kate read it and smiled. Then her face dropped, Mockingbird was Clint’s wife, the 2 chicks were the 2 kids outside of the arena, Lila and Nathanial. You’re all we have left. Was that cannon Coopers? Was he dead? She grabbed a decent stick to make a bow. Don’t think about it. She tied the string like how she was taught. Don’t think about it. She tried the bow a few times and hit her target. 

Fwoosh !

A knife whizzed past her ear, instinctively Kate pivoted and let an arrow fly. It hit Riri Williams in the chest. Riri fell out of the tree convulsing. T'challa jumped down after her. Kate just stared in horror. A cannon sounded and Riri went still. The boy was crying. He took the small bracelet of of Riri's wrist and held it tight.

“I’m sorry.” Kate whispered truthfully, before turning and walking away. She was about a meter away when she felt a searing pain across her back. She turned, T’challa’s bracelet had turned into a glove, looking just like the black panther. Claws included. He slashed again. Kate stumbled bleeding from her chest.

“I’m sorry too.” He said with venom before walking away. Kate's Canon sounded.

3 dead, 1 wounded. Day 3 was the day the games got serious .
