"Guys?" Jago said, trying to suppress a smile, and failing miserably. "We were talking about who would go?"
Jago immediately straightened into an offensive position. It was Lolita, his district partner.
((And I left my post off at something that didn't do anything... Whoops.))
Cia crept towards the pink-haired Career and her companion. She almost laughed and gave herself away when she realized that the companion was Ash, who seemed like the last person who would team with the Career. She held the laugh in, for she was keen on learning what they were trying to do. She also wanted to know if they were by anything particularly tall. Her skills might come in handy there. She moved her gaze to a slightly taller building that was quite close to both the Career and Ash, a perfect place for what she wanted to do. No, the building wouldn't do. She would aim for them instead.
She started working with her tablet, hacking her way through firewalls and sifting through the multitude of controls the Gamemakers had before she found what she wanted. She copied the coding of the command she wanted before she exited from the available commands and set about finding a way to execute them. In the background, she opened a coordinate map of the arena, and chose the point where the two tributes she had targeted for her command to strike. Literally. For when she activated the command, it sent a bolt of lightning down that struck only two paces to the left of her targets. She cursed under her breath at her miss, then again as her tablet failed.

The Gamemakers, who had seen what Cia had done and how she had done it, shut down all the tablets in the Arena. There was now no way for anyone to hack into their systems and control the Arena. They debated killing her on the spot, but the Head Gamemaker seemed to think that she could cause more trouble, more action for their viewers if she stayed alive. Besides, the camera that was being broadcasted to all of Panem wasn't on her, but on the alliance hidden in the blue building. They figured no one would be able to tell the difference, especially with some professional sound editing to take out the noise of the strike. Nobody but the Gamemakers and the tributes would even know it happened.
((Don't worry, I am NOT showing favoritism to my character because I plan to have her die anyways. If you have a problem with my explanation as to why they did not immediately kill her, then I am open to suggestions (message me!)))

((Yeah, Minny was talking to Lolita, not Sage at all.))
((YAY SOME MORE ACTION :) Now do you want me to have her run (and not die) or should I have her fight (and probably die)?))
((Wait so has Sage run away or not?))

(( I dunno, if she fights now she'll probably die lo..."
((Figured as much :). I'll have her run then, and then we can maybe get Ash involved in it too, so then she'll have two people chasing her for a bit. Maybe she can lose them temporarily and then they find her again and she dies? Because then I can have her stir up more stuff until literally everyone wants to kill her, but I'll let Linadel do the honors. Does that sound good?))

@alice, maybe like 3 more posts time. She should kinda gradually get better, not just suddenly: I can move again!))

((Cool c:))
Cia staggered backwards before she regained her footing. From there, she was a few steps away from the pink haired Career that had found her and confronted her. She silently cursed her stupidity, even though her mind was on much more important things, like how the heck she was going to get out of there alive. Her best bet, she decided, would be to make a break for it, that was, after she gave the Career a setback of a few seconds. She smiled as her plan fell into place. "Yep. It was. You're welcome for that. Say, would you mind holding this for me?" Cia said as she threw the tablet at the Career's, turned around, and bolted like she never had before, turning corners as much as she could, without doing it every time.
((Is that okay? I thought it would be kind of funny in addition to practical, but if you don't like it I'll edit.))

((I don't know what should happen... will Lolita join them, will he follow Adele to Sage? IDK????))

(*shrug* IDK, nothing against Minny or Riva, but I really don't know...)
