Nope.//Day 2 Oneshot.

I pulled out a piece of splintered wood from my side, now that I had time to dig into that wound. Fuck, it was really in there. Sitting down and laying back against a statue, I gritted my teeth to keep myself from screaming from pain as I dislodged the biggest piece after a few minutes of struggling. All that was left were a few small splinters that I managed to clear from a few minutes of picking. 

Part of me felt thankful she had stabbed the same side that had been bruised already; she hadn’t created a second weak spot on my torso, just really fucking damaged the already bruised spot around the ribs. I walked over to the fountain and removed my blazer, realizing as I noted my shirt underneath just how sweaty I’d become during the fight. The thing was saturated. Whatever. 

I cleaned out the wound on my hand using the water in the fountain and removed my tie to use as a makeshift bandage. It certainly wasn’t the most absorbent material but it would have to do for now. In all honesty, it probably required stitches, but that would have to wait until I, ideally, got back to the Capitol. It was a shame, stitches were one thing I actually knew how to do. 

I used more water to clean out the wound in my side and, realizing I didn’t have much fabric to use as bandages, wrapped the arms of my blazer around my torso, tying them in front tightly to keep the wound covered. This shit hurt, but I could live with it. My hand would probably heal just a little bit overnight; there would be more than a scab left but the blood will probably have clotted and the cut wouldn’t be bone-deep anymore. Hands didn’t have a lot of flesh and muscle to repair so I was probably in a better spot than if she had gotten my thigh or arm. 

The courtyard was so out in the open, I needed to find a safe place to sleep for the night. Instead of just sleeping near a bush, I decided to take the south exit away from where I was. But instead of reentering the high school, I walked straight past it towards what looked like a playground. It looked like there had been some fighting here recently, and blood was kind of strewn everywhere, but that was kind of commonplace at this point. Besides, it most likely meant the kids who had won the fight here had taken off and weren’t coming back anytime soon. What was it down to now? Ten? Eleven?

I fell asleep in a soft patch of grass off to the side of the playground, feeling relieved to finally get some rest but dreading whatever was waiting for me in the morning.

Extra Credit.//Day 2.

Before fully exiting the parking lot I knelt down and assessed what I had, pulling out a tissue from my backpack and wiping the blood off my cheek. Feeling hungry, I was relieved when I pulled out an energy bad, and to satiate that hunger I ate half of it, and chased it down with half of my bottle of water. 

I continued along the path, finding my way back to the scene of the bloodbath and examining the surrounding area.

PMS.//Day 2 Oneshot.

I woke to a rapping on the window of the car I’d taken shelter in for the night. Somehow I’d slept fairly soundly despite the circumstances; this car was pretty nice and the seat had been plushy and comfortable. What wasn’t comfortable, though, was the face the girl from the day before was making at me as she tapped on the window. 

I could hear a string of curses spewing from her mouth and I sighed as I looked around. Tampons and perfume were the only things I could find in her car to potentially defend myself with should she choose to attack. And she seemed pretty hell bent on getting me, if the chain in her hands was any indication. The four girls she’d brought with her didn’t look too happy either. 

I pocketed the perfume and some of the tampons discreetly while she turned back to shout orders at the other girls and sat up. Could I just sit in here all day? It was unlikely she would attack her own car, though someone who could afford something nice like this could probably afford to get a window replaced. No, better that I take the initiative, I thought. 

Cracking a few joints and taking my time stretching, I unlocked the doors to the car and gingerly stepped out. Smirking, I looked around at the five girls who were all facing me. 

“Morning, ladies,” I nodded at them. “Good morning. I’ll just be on my way, then.”

“I don’t think so,” Bri stepped forward. “That was my car you decided to drool all over, dipshit. You can’t just walk away.”

“Your car?” I turned around to look at it, then back at her. “Well you certainly are not prepared for an emergency. No ice scraper? Jumper cables? Come on, Bri, if Daddy’s gonna buy you a car this nice he might as well splurge on some automotive essentials.”

She cursed at me and swung her chain around, smacking it on the pavement. “You might want to actually think before speaking like that to me and my friends. It’s our turn to have a little fun.”

Suddenly, two pale girls burst out from behind her, swiping at me with their knuckle dusters. One of them got a good clock into my jaw before I ducked and pulled my taser out of my pocket. Aiming and hitting the button I let the taser shoot out towards the first one, hitting her in the gut and incapacitating her as she fell down to the concrete. I pulled the taser back and placed it back in my pocket. The one who had hit me in the jaw was running at me now, but I noticed that despite her strength, she was a fairly small one. I sidestepped her attack and simply picked her up, hitting her head against the car window and knocking her out. Shattered glass spread all around the concrete and the interior of the car and Bri screamed in frustration. 

The next two went at me next, leaving Bri alone to watch. These girls were bigger; I wouldn’t be able to simply pick either of them up. The tan one jabbed me in the side, and I grunted from the impact while the other stepped on my foot. I punched her in the face, but a broken nose wasn’t going to take her down, it seemed. 

I pulled out the perfume I’d taken from Bri’s car and aimed as the girl cradled her bleeding nose. As the spray hit her eyes she screamed and knelt into a fetal position holding her face in her hands. 

The other girl hit me in the side again, almost knocking me over, and I turned around, pulling the taser back out of my pocket. She was huge, taller than even I was. But I was faster. Thinking with my head, literally, I headbutted her directly in the gut, knocking the wind out of her and leaving her gasping for air. I shot the taser into her side and watched her jerk from the electricity before falling unconscious. 

Bri screamed in frustration and charged before I could collect myself. The chain cracked, and I felt a stinging warmth on my cheek. Blood was running into my mouth, which I spit into her face as she got closer. She was raving mad now, and aimed to kick me in the groin, but I sidestepped her and punched her in the breast. 

“You see, Bri,” I said as I pulled her perfume out again. She kicked me in the side, which hurt, but I stood my ground as she continued aiming at me. “I’m only your enemy because you made me your enemy.”

I sprayed the perfume into her eyes, which made her scream in agony, but still she kept swinging the chain wildly. 

“I don’t want to fucking be here,” I said as I slipped around her side, dodging random chain whips. She turned around to find me, but I dodged around behind her, working to confuse her. “I just want to go home to my family, bitch. And you-”

I came up behind her, putting my left hand around her neck and my right hand over hers. “Are not going to stop me.”

Tightening my hold on her neck I forced her to loosen her grip on the chain. When she finally let go I simply wrapped the chain around her arms from behind so that she could listen to me. 

“I don’t want to do this, Bri. But you gave me no choice. And I can’t have you following me.”

I pulled the chain up so that it was around her neck and tightened. Not enough to kill her, I decided. That was probably what the Capitol wanted. Nah, she’d just have a nice little nap here in the parking lot. 

Eventually she stopped struggling and passed out from lack of air, and I let her fall to the ground. Just in case, I kicked her once in the ribs. If she came after me even now the stinging in her eyes and a broken rib would slow her down. 

I took the chain and stuck it in my backpack, then slipped a pair of knuckle dusters off one of the unconscious girls and threw it in my pocket. I made sure to keep it safe with the key and the taser before turning off and heading back to the site of the bloodbath. I was done with parking lots, hopefully forever.

Juno vs. Sheep | Arena Day Two

When Juno woke up the first thing she noticed was how shitty she was feeling. She had a headache, a runny and stuffy nose and she wanted to just screech. She was so obsessed with how shitty she was feeling that she had actually completely not paid attention to the hellish surroundings around her. She had a cold and the girl almost burst into tears, thinking back to how she could have possibly contracted this vile disease, she recalled that dirty, nasty, pink haired skank was coughing and spitting on everything. Wiping the snot away from her nose, she prayed that the girl slipped into a pool of lava and all her germs died along with her. It was then did she realised that shit had changed

“Fuck...” were the only words that came out of her mouth when she saw the demonic sheep approaching her. She knew nothing about sheep, she thought the animals were ugly and useless and she didn’t enjoy lamb meat, but right now they all looked ready to eat her. Slowly taking her bag of animal feed out of her pocket, one of the sheep pounced towards her and the girl fell to the ground with a screech. The animal stomped on her arm causing a cut to form that slowly started to bleed. On top of this, the ache at the back of her head was getting more and more prominent and she was almost certain she’d bruised or cracked a rib with the fall. Now that the animals were distracted, Juno took this time to grab all of her shit and run west far away from the animals. Falling down the ground feeling the exhaustion catching up with her, she welcomes the sound of another sponsorship gift and inside, a syringe and clear liquid. 

Guessing that whoever paid this much money for some sort of relief wouldn’t actually want to kill her, she injected herself and waited. Within seconds she felt herself getting better and she just wanted to cry. Waiting it out for another ten minutes to make sure she was fully back to herself, she continued to head west far away from the demonic sheep.
