~☆Day 1: Bloodbath☆~ You walk down the hall silently. Your stylist keeps in step with you as you continue forward to your impending doom. The click of both your steps echoes throughout the long hallway. Finally, you make it to the door of the launch room. You open the door to find…all the other tributes? 24 glass tubes all about one foot apart are in front of you and the other 23 tributes. One for each of you. You hug your stylist goodbye before they, and all the other stylists, leave the room. Once the door closes an awfully loud clicking noise lets you know that the door is locked. Murmurs of all of the other tributes fill the room. “Now, now, don’t be so loud,” Kiira’s voice fills the room, silencing the other tributes. “This isn’t how we normally do things, that’s true. You’ll find out soon enough why we have set up the launch room like this. Please step into the pedestal with your name on it.” You all do as she says. The doors close in on you, trapping you in the glass tube. You feel yourself being lifted up. The dark tight space gives way to a bright and spacious…backyard? The arena seems to be in an ordinary backyard, though the lawn is overgrown some. It needs to be mown… You’re only a foot away from the nearest tributes. If you wanted, you could push them over and they’d die from the pedestal land mine. “Don’t even think about pushing anyone,” Kiira scolds. “If you do push someone off, all the land mines go off at once. That would be rather unfortunate for all of you. Anywho, let the countdown begin!” You take in your surroundings. It’s a tight space for 24 teens… You wonder not for the first time what trick they were playing… That’s when you realize that the countdown is already almost through. “10…9…8…7…6…5…5…5…5…GUYS I SAID FIVE!!” Kiira squeals. You all look at each other in confusion. “Oh for goodness sake, I’ll do it myself!” You hear Kiira stomp away, tripping over something, cursing, and then you hear a click of a button. She must have not turned off the microphone… You hear a whoosh of air and barely catch site of a baseball before it flies into one of the house’s second story windows. It crashes though the glass. You all watch in even deeper confusion when a loud humming noise begins. Louder and louder it gets…until a blue beam comes hurling towards you! Before you can react, the blue beam covers you and all the other tributes! You look around, your fellow tributes nowhere to be found. Then you realize what’s happened. 10 foot tall grass surrounds you. You’ve... “Oh dear…Panem! I shrunk the tributes! Yes, all of you tribbies are now a quarter of an inch tall. Instead of being one foot away from each other, you’re now half a mile from each other! The little itty bitty cornucopia with all your itty bitty supplies is a mile away from the farthest tribute! This distance should make things…interesting! Goooooood luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor. Let the countdown resume!” “5…4…3…2…1…” Your time begins. Yay for dramatic bloodbath posts! Bob Duncan was indeed correct, this arena is based off the movie Honey I Shrunk the Kids. Congrats on correctly guessing the arena Bob! You have received 3 sponsor points in reward. If any you haven’t watched the movie, I suggest you do. It might make things to come a little less…surprising. Onto the serious matters. Remember when I said you guys would have specific advantages tailored to this arena based on the training stations you went to? Well, if an advantage is “activated”, you may use that advantage. If it is deactivated, you may no longer use it until it is once again activated. Every time an arena day is posted, the bottom will have a list of what advantages are activated/deactivated! If an advantage is not listed, it means that the advantage cannot be used yet. Don’t remember what training stations you did? Look in the “3rd Games” album on the page. Look for your tribute face claim. In the comments will be your tribute profile. This will be where you find everything including your sign-up, your sponsor points, your items, your training advantages, status (whether you’re dead or not, and what placing you are if you are dead), injuries, and number of kills. Advantages will all make sense once you see the map key. The map key will be posted at 8:05 a.m. MDT (by the time you’re done reading this lengthy post…whoops). Be on the lookout for activated advantages, it would be a shame…if you…missed it. Day 1’s Activated Advantages • Survival o Can grab a backpack at the cornucopia that contains fire starter kit (2 fires), a tent, 1 days’ worth of food, 1 days’ worth of water, and 3 meters of rope. Does not count as a cornucopia item. • Melee Weapon Combat o Is allowed to grab an extra item at the cornucopia, must be a melee weapon • Ranged Weapon Combat o Is allowed to grab an extra item at the cornucopia, must be a ranged weapon • Hand-to-Hand Combat o Is allowed to grab an extra item at the cornucopia, must be a shield Dont forget, my temporary admins are taking over for me from approx. 9:30 a.m. to 12 p.m.. And...please view the rules if you have not seen them yet. Best of luck to all of you! -Kiira
