《No Longer In the Fields, 45th Hunger Games (COMPLETED)》Chapter 16

Jo's POV
Sounds... so many sounds. I hear the birds chirping, the wind blowing, it's enough to make me go insane with all the peace and quiet after my allies' deaths. Spark... Colt... and Kernel... They were the only friends I had. Now, I have to win, for them. I'm pulled back to reality when there is a huge voice of an announcer.
"Hello remaining tributes. Tomorrow, there will be a feast. There will be weapons, supplies, food, and water. Please come, for it is... tomorrow morning." Day 4. I suddenly hear a canon. I look around to see who and where it is, then a body hits me. I hear heavy breathing right on top of me, I see it's a girl. I throw her off me, and grab my knife.
"Run, careers. Garner..." she said slowly, "is dead." I stumble back, thinking of Kernel's district partner, I remember he is tall, strong, and hard to kill.
"You kill him?" I glare at her, and she too stumbles back,
"No." she says, almost calmly. I hear cheering in the distance, and I look at her leg, she has a huge gash on it, and it's fresh too.
"Who gave you that?" I point at it, and she points at the woods behind her,
"Them." I hear the cheering again, but closer now.
I grab my stuff and put out my fire, I look back at the girl, and she starts hobbling as fast as she can. I roll my eyes, "Cmon." I grab her hand and sprint up the mountain. I know that they'll be looking for her on this mountain, so after about 30 minutes of running, the girl collapsed.
"I... can't... run... anymore." I settle down and all I see is snow.

"So, did you hear the announcement?" I ask,
"Obviously, there's almost no way to miss it." She answers, and I nod.
"Also, the name's Techna. Do you know Gleam? She's my ally." I nod, I have no idea who these people are, besides tributes like me.
"I'm Jo." She nods, because I know that we don't want to work together, but what am I supposed to do? I just helped this girl, and I have no medical supplies or anything! "I'm gonna make a fire, you could use leaves from that tree to wash the blood and bandage it up in some way." I can see she's quiet, because all she does is nod and do as I say. "So, do you have any weapons, are you good at any weapons?" I ask, hoping for something she's good at.
"Bombs, rewiring, I guess the normal district 3 things. If you can get me to that feast, I'm sure I can take out the remaining careers. I've already studied the wiring on the pedestal." I stand there, shocked, this girl who looked helpless and scared about an hour ago is now planning a way to kill the careers?! I don't know what to say, so I just say,
"Cool, I'll get you there, as long as you don't kill me." She nods, and we just talk the rest of the day at our camp.

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep!
