Day Six - The Calm After the Firestorm

Day Five Results

An arrow zipped through the air. And a cannon sounded triumphantly.



Attack: Aspen (Village)
Poison: Clove

Public Item Search: Carr
Primary Item - Thin sheet of plastic: Guard x1
Backpack 1: Two spearheads - Find a spear shaft and combine these for two short-ranged attacks.
Backpack 2: Empty
Backpack 3: Empty
Token: Metal toy car. As long as you are in possession of your token, you will be able to move freely to any space on the map at the end of each day without restriction.

Clove has been attacked and had her tongue cut out. She will no longer be able to post for the remainder of the game. Only "gestures".

Amp and Neptune both used an antidote and have been cured of the poison.

Due to Aspen's death, a complete list of every tribute's remaining inventory will be posted tonight.

But Katniss had been still too long. After three days in the forest, the sponsors were getting bored and wanted to light a fire under this girl they'd rated so highly during training.

Fireballs began to sear the air, sizzling as the forested areas of The Arena were burnt to a crisp, no longer inhabitable.

Every Tribute who attempted to move within or remain in the forest on Day 6 has been moved to an adjacent square in the remaining areas of The Arena. Each of them also lost an important item today as they scrambled to attend to their wounds.

Happy hunting, Tributes!

Noooooo, not my Aspen. I will have vengence.

And um, why am I not on the map?

maybe you are hiding?

And many thanks Haymitch. I am humbled by your generosity.

No love for my camouflage photo?



For shame. Whatever you're drinking in the Capitol must be making y'all blind.

I couldn't find it.

Cool. I'll finally have an accurate accounting of all my worldly possessions.

Disconcerting, isn't it? Marvel is also not on the map.

Nice work on Clove, btw. Very fitting.

Thank you for your appreciation Sponsors, and Haymitch in particular. My "Forbidden Love" was my favorite to take as well.

All 3, in fact. Seems I'm the only tribute on each ballot. Maybe there will be a prize for that alone!

Marvel wrote:

I might be right behind you...

I may need someone to keep me warm tonight.

Cato doesn't seem very willing.

Ooooh. My copy of this week's Entertainment Weekly just arrived.



Off to battle my kids to see who gets to read it first.

peeta looks very handsome.

Is that flour behind his ear?

Are we back to voting and stuff or not?

Everyone should have their daily results now. If you think you might be owed one, hit me up.

I hope you enjoy the steak, Cato. Please be sure to cut it up into tiny little pieces before you eat it, though. I'd really hate for you to choke yourself to death on it.

That wouldn't be very much fun for the Sponsors, now would it?

Update:

What was that Clove? I can't quite hear you.

Clove, I have medicine for you. If I dont heal you, will you die?

Thumbs up for yes, down for no.

how can i be hungry if i have stew x 4?

Maybe they just realized how empty you are inside and figured your stomach would have gone along for the ride?

clove, i kinda wanna kill you.

Hello remaining Tributes! Those photos you posted showed how wonderfully different you all are. Congratulations to the lucky winners. You have done a fine job of capturing the sponsors in your sights. Continue to impress the sponsors with your efforts and you shall reap the benefits.
Your simple attempts at gaining favor may allow you to survive and become the victor in the 74th annual Hunger Games. Caesar

You should probably give her the dirty, half-eaten loaf of bread.

That would probably be the easiest thing for her to eat now.

But give me the Klondike Bar.

13. Know this: Your participation level will have a direct impact on your survival. You needn’t know the exact calculations which will lead to your potential demise, but rest assured that if you aren’t posting actively in The Arena, you won’t be long for this world. We call this Hunger. During the night (read: Not at EOD, but sometime before the morning), a Hunger Report will be posted, telling you whether you are in danger of mortality. Spend two days on this report and you’ll be in CRITICAL condition. If you don’t find a way to combat hunger on the second day, you’re dead.

Oh dear. I just noticed that Cato lost his Token.

How careless of him.

I guess he had too many things to keep track of.

Like that useless sword of his.

Remaining Tributes:

The game is winding down and the time has come for you to decide what you are playing for.

As you will all remember, there are significant prizes at stake for the winner, including a considerable donation made nominally in your honor to the charity of your choice. Before you finish this day, you must determine whom you are playing for. Once you have decided, announce your choice in the arena.

And yes, the Wayne Foundation is indeed off limits. If the charity has a website, post a link so the Sponsors can see what you're fighting for.

It's nearly over. It seems only right to decide what it is you stand for.
