((TIME TO MAKE PEOPLE KILL EACHOTHER YAY))
With one tribute in hysterics and the others emotionally battered as well (well, maybe not Linadel) the Gamemakers decided to heighten the drama. A loud, pulsing hum filled the arena, the sound, it turns out, or the forcefield closing in on the Cornucopia. They wouldn't close in all the way, but they would move quickly and shrink the arena until it was 1/3 of the size it used to be.
***
Cia swore as the humming grew louder and louder. She had just wanted to rest, and, out of anger, had thrown a rock in the direction of the humming. The rock hit the forcefield, and disintegrated into a pile of dust. Cia backed away, confused. She hadn't been at the border only moments before, but now she was. The only logical explanation she could find was that the field was closing in. She picked up another pebble and threw it at the same spot to gauge how fast the field was closing in. When she had determined that it was faster than she would have wanted, she turned away and ran for the Cornucopia. She began to climb up the stairs, knowing the high risk of death but figuring the forcefield wouldn't close the Cornucopia.

Artemis jumped at the noise, and wondered what it was. No matter what, she started to run. She didn't know where she was running to, exactly, but at least she might be able to get somewhere, find an ally and someone help her figure out what was happening.

Mihr saw the blackness zooming in on the Arena and then the hum of it coming closer. She was about to run when she saw yet another figure jump out of the alley and tackle her to the ground. She didn't allow herself to make a sound but gritted her teeth. He had a makeshift spear and held it against her chest. She realized after a moment it was her district partner, but she didn't spare him mercy anyhow. She used her free legs to kick him in the back, knocking him off of her, and then used her own spear to cleanly decapitate him. His cannon boomed not a second later, and then she was off and running towards the Cornucopia once more, where the darkness hadn't consumed just yet.
((Please, could Adele or Sage do something?????))
((Sora, not the tip of the spear, the side of the blade))
((@Julane, just waiting for squiggle to post something about her kill-off that Sage is gonna kill, I don't know where to go with it. Also, Dele, can you let something about Adele and the force field problem? I don't know what to do about that either....
((Umm... I think not. I was talking about her other character.... But that's okay, I do that sometimes, too. :) ))
((Oh, haha, sorry for the misunderstanding. I meant that Riva was dead, but I was talking about her other tribute, Amiel Fenby. I just don't know where to start with it, I've never RP killed a tribute before...))
((I saw that comment Aubree but since I never even posted anything about Amiel I didn't see any point in saying anything then. You can just kill him. I could rp him though, if you want?))
((I could have Mihr kill her..))
((Adele??? Sage??? Aubree, I'm mostly wanting you to comment, because you still have to say what you did with the boy you were talking to! :))
((Okay, sorry, my bad for taking so long.))As Sage climbed down the rope ladder, she gazed at the woods, looking for any possible source of danger. When she sees a young boy, not much older than herself, she almost jumps and falls off the ladder to the soft grassy ground. Just at that moment of realization she senses something different. Sage continues, figuring it's just her imagination, until she reaches the ground. Although, she is a little worried because she knows to always follow her instincts and when she isn't that's bad. She hears someone scream,"The forcefields closing in!" And then she realizes something completely terrible. They are almost at the edge of the city. She yells at her allies,"Get down here! We have to move, now!" When Sage sees the other boy still staring at her with big, doe eyes, she realizes that he's not going to move.
((Maybe... I think they are going to travel along the tops of buildings (since they are so close together) once they get to the center of the city to stay away from other tributes. And of course, they'll be other dangers up there like falling off in the windy conditions or mutts so they won't just all miraculously survive))
((Gosh, sorry, didn't know. And I don't believe that being a mod gives me the power to do unacceptable things, so I am not really sure where you got that but, it's all good. :) We'll figure out something else to do, then.))
((@Alice, don't mean to be a downer, but can you do that somewhere else like the group chat? Were still in the middle of the games... Thanks! :):):):):)
((Okay, I think that Sage is talking to her kill-off and Jango is with her and Adele is sleeping. Should I wake her up??))
((Okay I think I know what to do now. Thanks for the help!!))Adele jumps awake at the sound of Sag's shout coming from outside the treehouse. She climbs down quickly and joins her. "What's going on?" She asks urgently.
"I think the arena's closing in. And that boy isn't moving..." Sage replies. "We need to run." Sage says. "Let's move." I then start jogging, pacing myself for the long journey ahead.
((*Jago))
Jago ran next to his allies. The buzzing noise was close. Very close.
"Guys, they're making the arena smaller to draw us all in." He panted. "We have to be careful, there are probably a lot of others in this area."

((Can someone kill Charlie? I don't really have much free time...so yeah. You guys are great, I'm just busy and the group has died down since school started. So who'd like to kill Charlie?))
((Can someone from my group please post something? I am kinda stuck, and I need some help guiding my character.))Sage watched as the boy flew backward as some invisible force swept him away into its blanket. She heard a cannon.
(( This won't count as Sage's kill just the character's death))
Afterwards, she heard another cannon go off ((Charlie's death)) and started to run, pointing at the center of the Capitol, trying to get the other tributes to run with her.

Sage watched as the boy flew backward as some invisible force swept him away into ..."
Jago ran beside Sage and Adele. The buzzing was near. Extremely near. He was almost positive that their group's camp had been right on the arena edge, and that if they didn't speed it up, they would be crushed under the force field.

Adele shouted, "Guys! We need to get away from the force field!" The buzzing rang in her ears like tracker jackers.
"Yeah!" Sage replied to Adele. "Let's run. Run for our lives." I sprint hastily, trying to get to the center of the city. As we fly by buildings, the cornucopia comes in sight. Sage says,"We're close enough, the force field can't close in THAT much. Let's find a place to rest."

"Oh,okay, Adele, good idea. That looks like the perfect rest stop, no one could possibly be in there, but we always have to expect the unexpected."
Sage winked.
"Very true." Adele tried to smile, but what Sage said brought the memories of her hallotionations back. "Let's go." She said weakly.
Cia had been running for nearly hours now. She was just about at the top, maybe a few steps. She pushed herself to run, until she felt the strong winds at the top. In fact, she nearly fell. She lowered herself to the ground, holding on to the steps for dear life. She slowly crawled her way up the stairs until she was to the top, where she continued to slowly crawl until she was inside the mouth of the Cornucopia, and somewhat sheltered from the wind. She slowly sat up and leaned her back against the Cornucopia with a sigh, knowing she was safe for at least a few minutes.
"Did you hear that?!" Jago whispered when they heard a noise.
They prowled down the hallaway quietly, the buzzing now very quiet.

Mihr had been sprinting towards the Cornucopia. Once there, she looked at the door, and then at her wide array of weapons. Yes, I need more. No, I don't It was then that she spotted a camera near her foot, pebble sized. And the only reason she had noticed it was because it was clear glass. And that was how she saw the person running behind her. She gasped, spun on her heal, grabbed a knife and threw it. It hit the tribute in the shoulder. He winced, but did not scream. She then recognized his, face to be the one of the male District One tribute- a fellow Career. He had a makeshift sword. It looked dangerous, really dangerous, actually. He swung it at her, and it narrowly cut her on her right elbow. She grabbed the hilt of her knife that still stuck out of him and twirled, pushed it in harder, wither more force. He screamed, yelled, hollered, it was horrible, truly. All of that blood... Mihr felt like screaming in a way as she managed to grab that another knife and plunge it into his heart. Just like that, his body, fainted, twitched, and stopped just as abruptly. The hovercraft came. Mihr looked back down at the glass camera, and noted that the lens was obscured by blood.
((cough *DystopiaGirl* cough *Aubree* cough *post*))
Jago heard a loud creak. "There's someone in here." he whispered.
They cautiously took a step forward. He only hoped that because the [possibly] enemies had not decided on direct confrontation, they were not not aggressive.
They slowly crept up the stairs.
(I was going to say that they see Minny and Loli, but I don't want to control you guys, is it okay if they do?)

For the slight girl with the curly brown hair from Twelve, her adventure had barely even started but ended so quickly. She thought that she might just become Victor, might just beat the odds and survive, but she had been proved wrong. She had felt the blade enter her head and a girl saying she was sorry. It sounded genuine. Something inside of her knew it wasn't a spoiled Career, it was a genuinely upset tribute. Then her soul and body left the world.
