Deaths III

Yeah, death, violence etc. warning. Y'all know the drill by now right?

Cleo catches Python off guard and kills him

Cleo moved through the bushes, in quite the mood. She'd gotten lost after Grian and Python had left her behind and she was absolutely fuming. Grian she could excuse, he was new around anyway, but Python... that was unforgivable.

Which is why, when she saw Python building a little memorial for Grian, she snapped. First leaving her to die then killing Grian? She'd do everyone a favour by killing Python. She drew the sword she'd found whilst wandering the arena earlier, and charged.

Python only realised that there was a sword moving at high speeds towards his head when it was too late. He crossed his eyes to look at it, laughing in his last breath. Cleo removed the sword, wiping the gunpowder-filled blood off of it and shaking.

She'd killed someone. She'd killed someone intentionally, through her own action. What had she become? What had she become...

She'd killed someone. Quite an achievement, or so she thought as a mad grin appeared on her face and tears that were not hers streamed out of her eyes.

Evil X begs for False to kill him. She reluctantly obliges, killing Evil X.

He couldn't take it anymore. Anyone he tried to work with died or left him to do so. Even his brother had abandoned him. Which is why, when he saw False coming, he accepted his fate. She was the one who left him as a distraction for Joe. If the poet hadn't been a good person, Evil X would be dead.

False looked genuinely surprised when she saw him and he didn't immediately try to kill her. He just hung his head, and whispered:

"Get it over with. I don't want to be in this stupid world anymore anyway."

"What are you talking about? I was gonna invite you back on the team."

Evil X looked up at her, and whispered:

"Please just kill me. I don't want to be in a world where my brother would abandon me like you three did."

"Ev-"

"Please. Just end me already."

Reluctantly, False closed her eyes and raised the mace she'd stolen from Scar. She brought it down, smashing Evil X's head into the tree. She stepped back, retching. It's what he'd wanted, right? Right?

Cleo throws a knife into False's chest.

It was the feast.

Cleo guarded the cornucopia jealously. Nobody was touching the supplies except her. N o b o d y. So when she saw someone coming up the hill , she raised the knife she'd picked up from the feast. It was soon revealed to be False, carrying a mace covered in dried blood.

Cleo took a deep breath, and threw the knife. She was a murderer already, why shouldn't she cause some more bloodshed?

False gasped as the knife narrowly missed her heart. She felt the warm feeling of blood rushing up her throat, pouring between her teeth. She knew she was dead, but still struggled up the hill, trying to take Cleo with her. She had to persevere.

She raised the mace, but it was too much. She weakly brought it down, and the last thing she saw was Cleo taking it out of her hands, smiling and crying.

Karma had come to collect her debt.

Joe stabs Tango when his back is turned

Specify 'His'.

Joe watched the scene play out on the hill, and was going to turn back when he heard footsteps behind him. He quickly stabbed behind him, and ran. If he didn't see the injuries, he didn't cause them. He just needed to remember that.

Tango braced himself against the tree. The knife had gone right to his heart. He hadn't tasted his own blood since becoming a demon, and suddenly became acutely aware that demon blood tasted more like saltwater that blood. As he weakly slid down the tree, the world began to spin.

He hated being discorporated. It had only happened once before and it was an absolute pain regaining his physical form. Stupid Victorians. He laughed as he blacked out, ready to wake up to  some disappointed friends.

Joe stopped running as the cannon fired. No. It wasn't him, it wasn't him, it wasn't him-

Cub falls in a frozen lake and drowns

Cub ran through the woods. All the death made him worry that he'd be next. He came to the area near the cornucopia, and tripped over something onto something cold. He then made a few observations. One, he'd tripped over a body, specifically Tango's. Two, he'd landed on thin ice. Three, it was cracking.

He struggled to stand up, but just slipped and fell through the ice. The water was so cold it burned, and he passed out from shock almost immediately. Needless to say, he never came to, and it was scarily soon that his last breath bubbled up through the hole in the ice.
