Chapter Twenty: What They Call "More Action"
Dimond's POV
I rush through the arena with two tributes on my tails. My life is about to flash before my eyes, when a door opens and we freeze in our tracks. I hear growls and grunts coming from creatures that appear. My eyes widen as I realize what's happening, the Capital sent mutts for the rest of us tributes remaining to fight, to give the viewers some more "action." I scan the mutts, each are equipped with 16 knives, great.... I squint at the three, they kinda look like Azalea, Violet, and Chara. A gasp escapes my throat as I realize they actually are Azalea, Violet, and Chara. A mutated version of them. I quickly lift up my bow just as Violet throws a knife. I give a quick reflex and it misses, striking the chest of one of the chasing tributes. The girl falls to the cold ground, dead. Rita. I shoot Violet in the head, but she's not easily beaten and continues to throw knives at us. I don't get hit but several slice pieces of my hair. Just then she tackles me, exposing herself to the others. Her knife comes close to my neck, but then freezes and falls to the earth along with herself. I look up to see Carina with her weapon shoved in Violet's back and covered in blood. Before I could give any reaction Chara charges at us from behind, aiming her blade at Carina's neck. I shoot her with an arrow and she falls to her feet allowing Carina to get out of Chara's reach. Chara start to get back on her feet, when a razor hits her and she doesn't move. I see who is attached to the razor, Nick. The last mutt, Azalea, throws a knife into Nicholas' right leg and he moans in pain. Just then a girl to his left side kicks Azalea, making Azalea's own knife go through her body. As the last mutt is taken down, Nicholas gets back up with the blade removed from his system. We then separate, not ever forgetting the experience.
