《Dependence - Book Two (Wattys 2013 Finalist)》Capitol Update: The Arena - Day Four
Advertisement
Piper Papillon’s POV:
‘’ Good evening Panem! Day four in the Hunger Games arena has come to a close and I am thrilled to announce that we have our three final pairs for day five, which what I think is going to be the final day in the arena! We lost four more tributes today, and we have just six to go forward to tomorrow. I have an important announcement for you all, but first I will talk about the deaths. So without further ado, I will go through what happened today!
The day started with two early deaths. District Four’s Lilly Cullen – the daughter of the District Four Mayor – and her partner, Ethan Rhodes from District Five were the ones to die first. They had been preparing to leave as they saw Echo and Gauze approaching and they were hit by a mystery shooter. I can now confirm, that out of Echo, Gauze and Alistair – the long ranged fighters – that Ethan was hit by one of Alistair’s arrows.
Alistair and Arianna managed to creep up on the pair and they took out Ethan and therefore Lilly without being seen. They then fled, as they were unaware of Echo and Gauze near them and headed across the island. Poor Lilly and Ethan died, but they both had someone waiting for them on the other side so that’s some consolation I guess.
Later on in the day, we saw the wonderful special attraction that saw the return of four deceased tributes. Brutis, Pious, Ravina and Caspian returned to the arena as zombified fighters to guard the vials that contained the antidote to the coma. All four of the girls went under the influence of it and it was up to the guys to rescue them.
Stitch, Alistair, Osmo and Gauze headed to the cornucopia clearing in the hope of retrieving one of three vials containing the antidote. Each of the deceased tributes had been assigned one of the boys and it was their duty to fight them if they approached the vials. It certainly was action-packed, because as soon as the first tribute set foot in the clearing, there was fighting until Stitch took his last breath.

So let’s move onto Stitch, it ended up being him and Gauze racing for the last vial. If Gauze had not shot him in the leg with his cross-bow bolt, we’d probably have a completely different set of finalists. Anyway, Stitch went down and the four deceased tributes tore him limb from limb. It was not pretty! Stitch and Min joined Ethan and Lilly on today’s death toll.
Anyway, now that that’s out of the way, I have an important announcement to make! Tomorrow is the last day in the arena, and we need your help! We need as many ideas as you can give us as to how we can spice up the arena! As well as this, we need ways to draw the tributes together for the final fight. Any and all ideas you have are welcomed so don’t hold back!
Finally, we want to know which tributes you want to see win this year’s Hunger Games. So please, send us in the names of the two tributes you want to win along with your suggestions. It would be greatly appreciated! Until next time, I’m Piper Papillon and that was your Capitol Update!’’

Don't Come Inside, Okay?
Lars Cromwell just got dumped by his girlfriend of 3 months, apparently because she found someone better. Although the normal man would have been bummed out by this, Lars didn't particularly mind. Because Lars just won the lottery, which meant he was about a billion dollars richer now. And he had one less person to share it with! Even if he was single, at least he was filthy stinking rich! In any case, this is Lars' story. A story that begins just like how many others do. With his death. Join Lars as he reincarnates into another world as his Avatar together with his favorite game's Dungeon and it's NPCs! = This Work is on an indefinite Hiatus. I do not know when I'll get back to this, but I plan to rewrite a bunch of stuff when I do. If you liked this, keep following it so that I can inform you of when I improve this! = Hello, I'm Lire, and this is my 2nd fiction. I recently got into the whole dungeon thing, and thought that I wanted to write one of my own! Chapter Length: 2000+ Words. It can only be more, never less. Chapter Release Schedule: Whenever I can write. I am juggling this with my main Fiction, so yeah... Disclaimer: - Don't expect much statistical growth from the MC. Although I plan for him to refine his techniques and increase his repertoire. - You can guess from the name, but there will not be too much action in the dungeon itself. Plus, the dungeon has been fully built, so not too many things will be added either. The whole idea is to kill potential intruders before they enter the Dungeon. - This will be more like a Kingdom building story, than a Dungeon Building one. MC will try to dominate his surroundings so that he can keep his Dungeon safe. - There will be Slice of life elements, since realistically speaking, events aren't supposed to happen all the time. - This work is inspired, to a certain extent, by Murayama-sama's Overlord Light novel. Minus the 'emotionless' undead MC, and the premise of misunderstandings. The NPCs will also be aware that they were characters in a game, that came to life for some reason, so no need for MC to role-play to pull the wool over the eyes of his own allies. Also, unlike Overlord, there is a chance for the cast of characters to increase through a built-in gacha system(This is not a spoiler, this will literally be explained in the first few chapters.), except that the rates are absolutely abysmal, so it won't happen frequently. Maybe I'll use a poll to decide the next ally? We'll see.
