"I... don't know." Maisie sighs.

"Why don't you just kill her?" Maisie asks Blue, glancing at Saudia.
Maisie raises an eyebrow but doesn't say anything.
"Alright. I'd be your ally."
"Alright. I'd be your ally."
Maisie laughs. "I can defend myself. I don't think that threat is worth much."
She holds up her large and blood-stained axe.

Maisie sits down. "You know Trent?"
"Hmm." Maisie nods. "I know him too, sadly. I guess I liked him, at one point. Now... not so much."
Maisie nods. "If... I could kill someone before going down, I..."
A tear goes down Maisie's cheek. "That's... nice. I'm... not joining though. I'm not going to watch. I don't even want to hear the screams." She whispers. "But I'll turn a blind eye on it."
Maisie sighs a shuddery sigh. "Thanks. I'm a mess right now. I don't think I'm going to win, but I don't care. Yet somehow I do. And I-"
She stops mid-sentence. "Sorry. I don't want to bother you with my crazy rambling."
She stops mid-sentence. "Sorry. I don't want to bother you with my crazy rambling."
Maisie shakes her head. "I want to see Casey again... she's dead, you know. Died in Hunger Games 3. I volunteered to win for her. If I die I get to see her again. If I win, I win for her. I guess it's win-win, but... it feels so... lose-lose, you know?"
Maisie sighs and looks down. "I killed people, you know?"
"I killed two...or maybe three people..? But at the Capitol, I've murdered, many, many more." Maisie sighs.
Maisie blinks. "I know. Thank you."
Maisie smiles at her. "What are you thinking about?"
Maisie shrugs. "I'm so used by craziness by now that it's normal."
(I'm back!)
Maisie sighs again. "I do too."
Maisie sighs again. "I do too."
"They all died." Maisie sighs again.
Maisie looks at the drawings.
Maisie has the name 'Casey' carved into her arm.
Maisie nods. "I did. Well.... It's a long story, but she loved me... I didn't. I just saw her as a friend. And then she thought I was dead. And then she died."
Maisie nods again. "Yes. Yes, it does."
"Neither am I." Maisie looks down. "I really changed, you know. I used to be sweet and shy, but ever since Casey died, I'm rough, and mean, and..."
(It's OK.)
Maisie smiles weakly. "I bullied people in training."
Maisie smiles weakly. "I bullied people in training."
Suddenly, you hear thunder in the distance. You look up and see a massive storm clouding the sky over the entire arena. The wind starts to blow harder, and it's whistling so loud in your ears that you can barely hear anything else.
(Potatoes, I meant someone to take care of hunger games 4!!)
(OK. Well, I'm fine with a disaster here, but I really want some action in 4. Also, I don't think Fruit is here.)
Maisie nods in agreement. "But where?"
Maisie runs towards there too and hides.
Maisie shudders as she listens to the thunder. Too many flashbacks...
"Casey, it's going to rain. What we've done is illegal..."
"Shut up, Maisie. We're going to be fine."
"Can't you hear the thunder? Can't you feel the rain? We're going to die!"
"SHUT UP, OK?! I DON'T NEED THIS RIGHT NOW!!"
"I.. I'm sorry..."
"Don't be, it's my fault, I-"
"OH MY GOD CASEY!"
"M-Mai-MAISIE!"
"Hang on! I'm coming!"
"N-no! Don-"
"JUST GET BACK HERE! CASEY! DON'T DROWN! CASEY, DON'T-"
"Maisie, big wave! WATCH OUT!!"
"Casey-"
So much water.
And then silence.
"Casey, it's going to rain. What we've done is illegal..."
"Shut up, Maisie. We're going to be fine."
"Can't you hear the thunder? Can't you feel the rain? We're going to die!"

"I.. I'm sorry..."
"Don't be, it's my fault, I-"
"OH MY GOD CASEY!"
"M-Mai-MAISIE!"
"Hang on! I'm coming!"
"N-no! Don-"
"JUST GET BACK HERE! CASEY! DON'T DROWN! CASEY, DON'T-"
"Maisie, big wave! WATCH OUT!!"
"Casey-"
So much water.
And then silence.
And another flashback.
"Where..am...I? How am I still alive...? And Casey-"
Sand on my feet. Memories. Spiraling. Too much.
"CASEY!! WHERE ARE YOU?! CASEY! Casey! Casey...? Casey... no..."
Too much pain. Memories. Blood. Water.
So much water.
And then silence.
"Where..am...I? How am I still alive...? And Casey-"
Sand on my feet. Memories. Spiraling. Too much.
"CASEY!! WHERE ARE YOU?! CASEY! Casey! Casey...? Casey... no..."
Too much pain. Memories. Blood. Water.
So much water.
And then silence.
And another.
"Casey! OH MY GOD SHE'S STILL ALIVE! SHE'S STILL ALIVE!"
The reaping. The glass ball. No.
"NO! CASEY, I-"
I volunteer. Right? OPEN YOUR MOUTH, MAISIE, OPEN IT!!
"No volunteers? Alright then."
"Come on, let's go, Maisie."
Too much suffering. Memories. Hurtling. Too hard.
"CASEY ASHLIN, TRIBUTE OF THE THIRD HUNGER GAMES!"
Too much desperation. Memories. Sadness. Hope.
So much water.
And then silence.
"Casey! OH MY GOD SHE'S STILL ALIVE! SHE'S STILL ALIVE!"
The reaping. The glass ball. No.
"NO! CASEY, I-"
I volunteer. Right? OPEN YOUR MOUTH, MAISIE, OPEN IT!!
"No volunteers? Alright then."
"Come on, let's go, Maisie."
Too much suffering. Memories. Hurtling. Too hard.
"CASEY ASHLIN, TRIBUTE OF THE THIRD HUNGER GAMES!"
Too much desperation. Memories. Sadness. Hope.
So much water.
And then silence.
Saudia bolts awake by the thunder, completely oblivious to Blue and Maisie's conversation, and aims her bow and arrow at Maisie, not noticing the fact that she's moved from her past place. "Blue......." she growls, her eyes on Maisie. "Uh....anything new you want to tell me? I mean, uh, who the hell is she doing here? Didn't she try to kill me in training? An ally?" She says slowly, her thoughts rambling, trying not to lose her sanity already.
And another.
"Welcome to the Capitol, sweetie!"
"What...what are you going to do...?"
The Capitol. The marble floor. Perfect. No.
"What...is..this..place...? OH MY GO-"
Too much blood. Memories. Clawing. Too violently.
I can't watch that. Can't see that. Oh, god, I hope that's not what I thought I saw....
"Remember how your little Casey almost died?"
Too much screaming. Memories. Begging. Dying.
"No! No! NO! NO, PLEASE-"
"Welcome to the Capitol, sweetie!"
"What...what are you going to do...?"
The Capitol. The marble floor. Perfect. No.
"What...is..this..place...? OH MY GO-"
Too much blood. Memories. Clawing. Too violently.
I can't watch that. Can't see that. Oh, god, I hope that's not what I thought I saw....
"Remember how your little Casey almost died?"
Too much screaming. Memories. Begging. Dying.
"No! No! NO! NO, PLEASE-"
(Hang on, she's having a trauma attack. I sort of want to write them all right now. Tell Maisie's full story, but cryptically.)
Oblivious to Blue, another flashback.
"Casey...? Why... are you bleeding like me...?"
"J-James..."
The TV. Watching. Her bleed. No.
"Casey... who did this to you...?!"
"A-Ajax..."
Too much pity. Memories. Shoving. Too strongly.
"Goodbye James... I'm coming, Maisie...."
Too much death. Memories. Crying. Committing suicide.
A cannon shot.
"NO! CASEY, NO!"
"Casey...? Why... are you bleeding like me...?"
"J-James..."
The TV. Watching. Her bleed. No.
"Casey... who did this to you...?!"
"A-Ajax..."
Too much pity. Memories. Shoving. Too strongly.
"Goodbye James... I'm coming, Maisie...."
Too much death. Memories. Crying. Committing suicide.
A cannon shot.
"NO! CASEY, NO!"
Finally, Maisie snaps out of her daze. (I GTG NOW!)
"Saudia..hi..." Maisie whispers, uncomfortable. She's trying to chase her flashbacks out of her head. "You...woke up..."
Saudia growls. "Yes, I woke up ........Aaw! You were hoping I was dead?" She intones and extends a hand. "You already know I'm Saudia...so hi ." She squints her eyes, studying Maisie.
"And I see that you have some rather...traumatic experiences. I mean, when you get into a daze. Well......welcome to the club. I have a tendency to go rather insane myself....." She drops the bow and drops down into a sitting position.
"And I see that you have some rather...traumatic experiences. I mean, when you get into a daze. Well......welcome to the club. I have a tendency to go rather insane myself....." She drops the bow and drops down into a sitting position.
Maisie sighs and leans against the wall. "That's nice."
Maisie shudders at her memories.
Saudia leans into the sand but then sits up to stare intently at Maisie, like she's trying to figure her out. "What do you do?" She whispers. "What do you do.......to get over trauma?" She lays back and runs Fenella's death through her head and she growls at the thought.
Saudia catches Blue's look but keeps her eyes fasted on Maisie, her too waiting for a response.
Maisie shrugs. "I... just wait for it to end."
Maisie sighs and cries a bit.
That's when she hears the two cannon shots.
"Final nine."
That's when she hears the two cannon shots.
"Final nine."
Maisie nods. "Yup. I wonder who's gone. Probably that suicidal Lexi girl. I don't know who else, though."
(Fruit? Shayna? Are any of you here?)
