Day 2 - Annadale, Poppy, and Margot
Annadale wasn’t expecting a third ally to join her and Poppy. She huffed as she trudged over the seemingly new wooden bridge. Annadale pried off a board of wood, carrying it as she stuck her foot out to Margot, attempting to trip her, but failed. Margot shot her a glare and continued to walk in front of Annadale, who continuously rolled her eyes at the girl.
“Wonder what that chocolate’s made out of…” Annadale mumbled to herself, nearly slipping on some that’d spurted onto the bridge. She smirked to herself and hopped off of the bridge into the soft grass. “Margot, come here. Can you do me a favor?”
Margot looked skeptical as she walked closer to her ally. “What for?” She asked, her eyebrow curving upwards.
Annadale waved her hand, as if it was nothing. “Can you just try that chocolate? See, I don’t like it, and neither does Poppy. Don’t you, Poppy?”
“Oh, yes, I mean—no, of course not, who does like chocolate?” Poppy said shakily, covering it with a laugh. She cocked her head to the side, giving Annadale a confused look.
Annadale grinned. “You’re the only one who can have it, then. Just try it, I’m sure it won’t do you any harm. You’ll be doing it for the good of all of us, just think about that.”
Reluctantly, Margot knelt down, looking back up at Annadale, who motioned for her to go. She cupped her hand into the chocolate river carefully, gathering as much as she could.
Annadale winked at Poppy and rose her hammer over Margot’s head, who was licking the chocolate off of her hands. Annadale brought it down hard, knocking Margot straight into the river. The girl dead, floated down the river until a tube sucked her up and out of the factory.
“See, wasn’t so hard to get rid of her,” Annadale said with a smile.
“One less to worry about,” Poppy replied in agreement.
They wove through the maze of candy and various odd-looking plants until they realized that the other tributes had eventually lost track of them. Sighing with relief, the two girls proceeded into the forest, taking camp together where they noticed no tributes had come. They rid themselves of chocolate and prepared themselves for an attack.
