jackon's 23. 

Jackson~

I watch them from a distance. Should I kill them? Where is Jennie? Maybe they know... I sharpen my knife again. I'm pretty protected. This knife is covered with poisons, and I have little devices that can electrocute anything and anyone. I jump out of the bushes.

They look at me in surprise, some of them grabbing their knives. I drop my own.

"I won't harm you. Please don't kill me." I cautiously watch them as they drop their knives.

"Who are you?" one of the girls asks, who seems to have fresh tears dripping down her face.

"Jackson Renia, from district 3." That's when there was some commotion. Everyone started pumping their fists, yelling, and hugging. Dunno their problem. But then it gets kinda quiet.

"Er... Jennie... Died." I stare at them.

"What?"

"I was her partner and then someone came over and stabbed her in the stomach," the girl whispers. I don't believe it. She had a mighty good training score. How could she die? Tears fall down my face.

"What's your name?" I ask her, ruffling my hair.

"Zinnia Hart, from district 11." I smile weakly.

"And I'm Lucelle. From district 6. My friend, Rick, just died," sniffs the other girl. I sigh.

"Zander. That's cory." He jabs his figure toward another kid. I nod my head.

"So, the reason we're so happy you're here is because we're planning a rebellion. And people from district 3 know how to work electricity." 

Thanks St. Owl!

Zinnia-

"Guys..." I say slowly. They stop arguing, and look at me. "Guys," I said again, "did any of you hear a cannon?" No one nods. They all shook their head. Had something happened to the Capitol? Could I dare to hope? I voiced my thoughts.  

Zinnia

Jackson looks at me strangely. I think he's wondering why I'm talking about cannons, so I explain. He just shakes his head and keeps staring Zander grabs my hand and glares at Jackson. And then I get it. BOYS! "Hey Lucelle." I say. She smiles at Jackson. We both break down in giggles. 

I haven't posted on this RP in a long time! I'm just going to fast forward to nighttime.

Cory~ 

How many days has this been? I don't know. I start to get into a comfortable position in my sleeping bag as the seal disappears.

I try to sleep, but I hear screaming in the distance. I get out of bed and wander off. I see, in the distance, a fire. I also see a kid trying to escape it, but trips and fails to escape. The cannon fires. Uh oh.

I run back to camp and wake everyone. They all stare at me. I point at the fire.

"Everybody, pack up!" I say. "Hurry!" I start to run with everyone close behind as we escape the burning foliage behind us. 

Lucelle~

I have NEVER felt this happy. Never. Not even when I made my first train set. Not even when I got to help Dad make that train for his work. District Three is here. We can do it.

(Insert Young Writer's charrie here) asks if anyone heard a cannon fire. My heart lifts, but I push it down. That train was a death trap. Then I realize what happened.

"Guys, Rick put us in an area that's untrackable. The Capitol doesn't know he's died because of that."
There are a few "oh yeahs" and many sighs. I don't blame them. It would be the greatest day on earth if the Capitol had a flaw.

I tell Jackson our plan, and we start charting out a strategy. In the back of my mind I still mourn for Rick, but I know there's nothing to do to stop it. I'm sensible now.

Finally we've made a good plan. I stand up and call for attention.

Sorry, this would go longer but I have to go!

Admins,

It's supposed to say "I point at the fire." Admins, can you fix that please?

Fixed!

Lucelle stands and asks for our attention. She sniffles, and looks dangerously close to crying. 

Lucelle~

"All right," I say. "We've figured it out."
Our small group cheers.

I blush slightly before continuing... "We'll need a new train that I've drawn plans for-" here I hold up an old label with my sketch on it- "And we'll need a track with a little container."

People are getting restless. Can't blame them... it's always boring when you do the requirments first.

"We are going to make a train that we will light on fire and push into the force field!!!!" I say.

Everyone is not impressed.

"Is fire really going to go through that?" asks Cory.

"Yes," says Jackson. "Right at that point"- he points to the force field behind my tree- "the force field is weak. According to my calculations, if we start the track far enough away, hopefully on a slant, we should be able to gather enough speed and fire to break it and escape."

"I'm afraid I won't be able to do much..." I say, quietly. "But the plans are all laid out. All we need to do is do it!"

Zinnia

I clear my throat. "Listen. We should test the force field, make sure it doesn't have special features." Jackson nods. I take a deep breath and continue. "I volunteer." For a second no one gets it. Then I see the look of horror on Zander's face, and see Lucelle shaking her head. "Zanderknows CPR. If it's normal, I'm not dead." 

Guys, the force field is normal because I don't want to tie okay? 

T O P

Zinna looks over at me. She smile. I smiles back. ( lol) I hear a crack and a branch falls off of the tree. I dive and push Zinna out of the way. I hear CLONK and I fall down. " Zander!" I hear Zinna yell before I fall unconsious.

Zinnia~

Geez! Is it like the new thing  to faint or something? I look at Jackson and say" Will you GET OVER HERE WITH SOME COLD WATER?" He looks scared, like I probably do. When he comes over with the water, I say softly " Sorry. It's just.." He nods.

Cappy says pmhk. Night hike?
