Welcome, ladies and gentlemen, to the new Hunger Games.

Alex: "Wait," I whispered, studying the haunted dark eyes. (Assuming they're dark.) "You two have the same eyes. He might be telling the truth." I swallowed. "Why can't we remember anything, Reeko?"

::Desmonda::
"The air here, it makes you forget! It's targeted to your DNA! Trust me!" he wailed, face red.
"Look, Alex, the obviously cloned my looks. This is just to waste our time. Let's go!" I ushered, pulling his hand forward and not looking back.
"Please, don't go! You don't understand! Please, please!"

Alex: I shook my head. "Des, remember? We're family. But how did we know each other? I don't think we just randomly met each other." I swallowed. "He..." I sighed. "Des, just wait a second. He might be telling the truth."

::Desmonda::
"I am, I am!"
"Alex, right? We've got less than five minutes left. We've got no time, please, please, let us go," I pleaded.
The boy in the cage was in tears, sputtering and hiccuping. He looked terrified. Like he was seeing something we weren't. By the looks of his eyes, he'd been injected recently with tracker jacker venom. That's why he's so insane.
I explained it to Alex, and pulled him more lightly. I didn't want to ruin our chacnes of winning.

(Des forgets about the radiation)

Alex: I sighed. If she wasn't going to do anything, there was nothing I could do to stop her. I shot the boy a look and had to keep moving.

Luke: I finally made it to the underground camp and found the door, which was already open. I then ended up in another room with a caged boy, but for some reason, I couldn't remember anything.

::Desmonda::
"Please, don't go! No, no, you don't understand what they're going to do to me!" his voice was high and cracking, veins popping out on his neck.
His eyes were red and he looked dirty, deranged. Like a wild dog. Reeko gasped a tortured breath and I wanted to run away, but I was too hungry to move fast. We exited the dome and a gate closed behind us . .
My memories flooded back.
"Oh my god! Alex, that was my brother!"
I frantically turned around, but the gate was locked and rolled down.

Alex: "Maybe we should yell through the door and tell other people to help him?" I suggested. "I don't know what we can do. Wait. You're Des, and I'm Alex?"

(Reeko should talk to Luke now.)

(Sure!)

::Desmonda:::
"I suppose. But, Alex, we have no time, we have to go. I know that . . "
My throat chokes and I bring my hand to my face. In the darkness, it glows bright neon green, and it is trembling. I cannot even feel it.
Great. I remember the door handle, and now Alex knows.
"I-I..."

::Reeko::
"Hello? Is someone there?" my head swarmed with buzzes and whirs, and I felt like it was a boiling sun in here.
I was dirty, abused, sweaty, and bleeding.
"Please, someone?"

Alex: I sighed. "I'm sorry, Des. I don't know what we can do." I heard a voice from the other side. "Do you hear someone? I think someone else has found the hideout."

Luke: I recoiled slightly upon seeing Reeko. In my hands, I held a hammer I had found. (Let's assume Nikkie got too thirsty and is gonna get cloaked.) "I...what? I don't even know what's going on here."

Conor:
"You're kidding right? You'll get hurt!" I say, "Look I have a sword its longer I'll cut them down and you catch the gloves and don't argue! WE don't have time for that!" I then reach up and cut the nest and the gloves down. "HURRY!" I yell as the nest drops like a rock.

(BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONEZ WHERE U AT?!?!?!?!?!?)

(... not funny...)

::Desmonda::
I reach out to grab his shoulder with my good hand.
"Good, he'll be saved. Now, let's go," I take a few steps forward because we can't delay anymore. So little time left.

::Flay::
I don't know what did it. But I panicked.
I stopped. I thought of Glimmer, of her dying, of the spin and unease in her face before she closed her eyes forever. I decided that it didn't bother me, but in this moment, it was all I could think of.
I frooze and didn't scream when a sting pricked my cheek.
My leg. My arms. Behind my neck. Up my shirt, in my chest.
I fall over. I start to scream.

Conor:
"Really Flay?" I bellow through my own torrent of stings. I bend grab the gloves push open the door and close it quickly before the tracker jackers follow I keep the gloves. Why make the other tributes lives easier? I am unphased by the venom, any poison can have an immunity built up for it if taken in small doses. Because of this I had built an immunitybto most poisons including that of tracker jackers. I inspect Flay, "Are you okay?l

(What is Reeko saying to Luke?)

Alex: I tightened my grip on Des' hand and started walking forward, hoping we were making the right choice and the person on the other end would be able to save her brother because we weren't.

(BONEZ!)

(BONES!)
(BONES!)
(BONES!)
(BONES!)
(BONES!)
(BONES!)
(BONES!)

(Okay Bonez its been like two days this is getting old)

(BONES GET YOUR BUTT OVER HERE!)
(We can spam her over PM if she doesn't reply again for a bit I guess)

-_-

(This is it. We are PMing Bones to get OVER HERE ALREADY!)

SORRY! Easter stuff, calm your buttox! xD

(Forgot to post for him, sorry!)

::Desmonda::
We proceed down a red-carpeted, dimly lit hall. It gives me the willies to eye the Victorian style paintings adorning the walls. I don't like it, and when we see the arch-shaped oak door, I feel relief. Another glowing handle? I reach over to twist it with my good hand before Alex sees.
"I'm hoping this leads us to where we need to go."

::Flay::
I want to answer, but just sputter out a gargled moan. The pain is rushing all over me in currents through my blood. I'd bet they were targeted to hit my DNA. I can feel twenty spots all over me that are throbbing, maybe more.
"N-N..."
I knew the math. At most, your first encounter with trackers would allow you to handle one or two stings.
One or two. I have so many stings, so much pain.
I gasp, and open my eyes. Everything is coated with a green haze. Please don't let me die like Glimmer, please . .
Because I think that all along, I've really liked Conor.

(Repost for Luke, please?)

(YAY YOU'RE HERE!!!)

Alex: I shuddered and nodded. "Yeah, me too," I said. "Wait, should I open it?" Maybe I should have. I wasn't sure. Maybe I should have asked sooner. She was already reaching for the door.

(Must find Luke's post, h/o)

(Pretty sure this is Luke's last post)

Conor:
"Come on Flay! Stay with me you can do this! Fight it! Don't let the hallucinations take over fight it!" I yell, then like a child, I start crying, "I... I love you..." I whisper so silently not even the cameras can hear me.
