“- the land was ruined by the flies”
Gina didn’t know what to do as the insects came closer and closer towards her. So she ran. She didn’t know where to run but all she knew was that she had to get away from them, having no doubt that the gamemakers were behind this. They were into sick things like that. What would happen if the insects caught her? Would she die instantly? Would they make her suffer? She didn’t know, but she didn’t want to risk it. She saw the blood red water coming into her view as she was running. But what if that was poisoned as well?
The internal debate Gina was having with herself concluded that death by the bugs would be far more painful then by the river. Besides, one of the trainers showed her how to swim, maybe that could help her survive longer? So with that thought in mind, she jumped into the deep red water, holding her breath, waiting for the pain to start. One. Two. Three. Four. Five. She counted the seconds in her head, but the pain didn’t start. So she dived up, noticing that the bugs hadn’t followed her into the water. So she was safe from the bugs here. But for how long?
