RE: The annual SBCbbs Hunger Games
Its the 2nd night, and all of our heroes are out and about. Unlike the first night, in which there was genuine fear of what lurked around the corner, now everyone wants to be the person lurking around the corner. Except apparently Skully Marroo...who is apparently attempting to win the Hunger Games by telling jokes His one liner with Saint333 left Saint wondering why he was keeping Skully alive, but then a little voice inside Saint's head reminded him to "Trust the process" He needs Skully alive, but for how much longer?
Speaking of "Why on earth is he alive" CatMom and BamaCajun are in the process of debating that process in terms of Arrowhead. They gave Arrowhead a slingshot in return for showing them the secret pathway he discovered the night before. The plan is to kill him as soon as they get the chance, I mean, its a ULM fan with a sling shot, what could possibly go wrong?
However Arrowhead has other ideas though. Suddenly BamaCajun and Cat Mom begin to notice that the foliage on this path is getting thicker and thicker,. Surely this can't be the path. Suddenly, Without warning a loud "crack" resonates in the field, BamaCajun screams like a frightened child is thrust into the air hanging by his ankle via an elaborate trap using a tree and rope. Cat Mom spins and pulls her sword to slay her foe, but Arrowhead is to quick. He side steps her. Cat Mom's momentum sends her head first into a steep side of the hill. The mud and dirt under her feet gives way and she begins to Slide uncontrollably down hill. Her screams are caught up in the cool night breeze as she slides 50 feet down a sheer vertical climb, coming to rest next to a stream below. She lay still, not dead, but unconscious. CatMom gets caught in a rock slide.
Gleefully smiling, Arrowhead turns to BamaCajun. "Excellent, we're alone now" he quietly says. He pulls out the sling shot BamaCajun gave him, and begins repeatedly shooting rocks at his head shouting "Wide left, Wide right, Off the Crossbar, off the upright" with glee over and over. After 30 minutes of agony BamaCajun is knocked unconscious. Upset his play thing has been knocked unconscious, Arrowhead picks up the sword Bamacajun had dropped in the ruckus, and stabs him right through the heart He then uses BamaCajun's blood to trace "Terry Bowden wuz here" on a nearby rock, and walks away to see if he can find CatMom.
Meanwhile EricSaid has come across a stream and quickly refills his water bottle before continuing the hunt. He hears a small moan in the distance, and goes to check it out
Yosef Himself has tired himself out after a day full of murder, and begins to search for a safe spot to rest, still nnot seeing Ramblin RedWolf, quietly stalking him from a distance.
GaSoEagle and TrueBlueDrew leave their cave in search of food, During a search through a muddy crop of berry bushes, they notice a Sean Elliot signed Georgia State themed towel and muddy footprints. Needing to answer nature's call, TrueBlueDrew decides to use the towel to um..."clean himself" And goes off in search of the owner of the footprints.
Near the end of the footprints a long ways away, Rokamortis has happened across Panama at a rock. Briefly the two pull their weapons out and consider the fight, but instead to decide to form an alliance. Rokamortis promises to share the abundance of food he has, and Panama his medicine. Excitedly the two begin to circle back to a Berry Bush as Panama excitedly begins to tell stories about how he got his comfort item, a Sean Elliot autographed Georgia State towel
Finally, as the night draws deeper, FrankyP stumbles into a patch of overgrown foliage where he comes across a lifeless BamaCajun hanging in the air. He notices message on the rock, and for the first time in these games, begins to show real fear...
The Sun Begins to rise as Day 3 approaches. YosefHimself slowly rouses from his dreams of New Years 6 Bowl games, and he like everyone else in the arena at this very moment begins to notice a very peculiar smell in the arena. It smells like burning brush. Slowly each of our heroes looks ahead and in fear sees the same thing..
A Fire is rapidly spreading throughout the arena and approaches them all!
To be contined: 12 remain....For now
