Knowledge is needed

Isabella. Taylor.

Fri, 02 Nov 2012 09:32:38 -0400

Danny rummaged through his backpack in search of the small dried food he had stored at the bottom if his bag. The three still left in their group were hiding out in a dense part of the forest where they were concealed from others. Danny reached in and pulled out the dried fruit along with some other food scraps. He passed out a few pieces and turned to face the two girls. “it was lucky we got out when we did, other wise the cave would have cracked in over out heads.” He sighed and leant back against a tree. He still felt weak but already he could feel his strength returning.

Issy and Taylor. I'm starring a new para. And we are in forest away from storm.

I just wanted to speed it up.

Lost among the others

Tessa woke up in a tree, the tree she had been using as shelter since she last saw Cade. She saw what looked like footprints under it, as she climbed down she didn’t seem to safe, her things in her pack. Tessa didn’t know any other tributes, and Cade was most likely dead. “I need some shelter, and water” She said sighing before heading off. Hearing sounds of faint footsteps in the distance.

Danny ventured off from the others now that the storm was over and they had safely made it to the forest. He grabbed his spear and snuck through the forest keeping his eyes and ears alert. He heard an almost nonexistent thud and quietly walked towards it. When he neared the sound he slowed and crouched. He looked up just in time to see a spot of red hair.

Isabella Hawke: Danny - Taylor - Issy:

Danny lay silently on the cold hard floor and listened intently as the storm still attacked outside. The thick stone creating the roof of the cave blocked any wind or thunderous drops but the storm still slipped in through the small entrance. Danny lifted himself on his elbows…

Taylor saw Isabella’s eyes widen and immediately drew a small knife from her belt. She heard the wizzing of Isabella’s arrow and then raced to see what it had hit. Her heart kept racing for a while after they realised it was only a squirrel.
Taylor walked off into the storm in search of some of the squirrels nuts but she had no luck. Grass was strewn all over the ground and so it covered any signs of burrows or something of the sort. She preserved for a while but then gave up. Taylor returned slowly to the cave and waited outside when she heard that Isabella was already inside with Danny.

Danny tried to entertain himself while the girls were out but they were gone for a while and so he started to get worried. He hadn’t heard any cannons but he doubted his hearing when he was up against the storm. Eventually he could hear Isabella’s familiar footsteps coming in to the cave. He smiled warmly at her when she entered. “how are you gorgeous?”

Danny - Taylor - Issy

Danny stumbled to the faint sound of familiar voices that were getting swept away in the heavy wind storm. Blood from the vigorous battle that took place between Danny and Josh had seeped through the thin fabric so it was plainly visible on Danny’s damaged skin. Danny couldn’t deny Josh’s character, skill and will to survive, he hated to think what the outcome would have been had Josh been at full strength.

As he kept walking strands of tall grass stuck on the sticky residue that covered Danny’s body. Fatigue tore at him but he stayed alert, through the heavy wind and rainfall Danny sensed another person in the surroundings. Danny’s quick thinking and utter strength saved him. “Taylor, Issy” Danny uttered in relief and exasperation his eyes falling intently upon each girls face.

“Danny!” Isabella screamed as she saw his faint figure. She ran up to him while Taylor quickly followed behind. They both carried him by their shoulders as Isabella motioned to their right to a small cave that could protect them from the hailstorm. “Let’s get him inside and then check the area for other lurking tributes.” she said. They both laid him down on the cave floor and gave him some water and food. “Just stay here, ok? Stay hidden.” she seriously said to Danny as she got her arrows and went back into the hailstorm.

Relief flooded through Taylor as the injured Danny came into view. She looked around for Josh but found he was not there. Pushing the questions to the back of her mind, Taylor helped Isabella to pull Danny into a near cave and then waited outside so Issy had a moment to sort Danny out.

Isabella soon returned outside and together they crouched with their weapons in search of other tributes. The girls were unable to see clearly because of the storm and Taylor found it difficult to keep still in the cold wind. She looked over at Isabella to see if her feelings mirrored Taylor’s own.

Danny lay silently on the cold hard floor and listened intently as the storm still attacked outside. The thick stone creating the roof of the cave blocked any wind or thunderous drops but the storm still slipped in through the small entrance. Danny lifted himself on his elbows and then tried to sit up so that his back was on the cave’s wall. He ached all over and he could tell that something funny was going on with the bones located in his right wrist. Danny rubbed it, trying to sooth the pain, but the agony grew stronger. He inwardly swore because he was right-handed. Danny let out a breath didn’t know he had been holding and closed his eyes until the girls returned.

Josh’s eyes widened as he knew there was no hope now. Only that change in Danny’s look was the dead give away. He started to get up but stayed down when Danny whispered in his ear. Grunting at every kick he gave him. He gritted his teeth when Danny talked about Issy and Dahlia. He couldn’t believe he had set that. He wasn’t going down with out a fight. He struggled to get up off the ground, glad that he had brought his sword. Though he nearly went straight back down when Danny hit him with his trident but he caught himself just in time. He brought his sword out of his belt and turned around to get the fight started.

Danny laughed as Josh’s face hardened. “you might try and look tough. There is no way you will win, but I’ll give you a shot.” Danny told him, trying to get him worked up. He had no idea where this rage was coming from, maybe it was even hurt. Danny shook the thought out of his head.
Danny let Josh try and rise to a fighting position but with every movement he could see the pain in his eyes. Then he saw the sword, that could be a problem. Even when someone was in excruciating pain one slice from a sword could do a lot of damage. “Be careful with that. You could hurt someone”

Josh scoffed at Danny’s words. Give him a shot? Oh he was going to be alive by the end of all this. He swung his sword around acting as if he had everything sorted even though it hurt to do what he was doing. He couldn’t look weak in front of Danny though. He wasn’t in a very good mood so when Danny made is snark comment he gave on right back with narrowed eyes. ‘No shit, Sherlock.’ He said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Danny had no idea where this anger was coming from but it was there and he couldn’t ignore it. He picked up his trident and waited impatiently as Josh tried to intimidate him. “You finished showing off pumpkin?” Danny smirked, “Go on, show me what you’ve got.” Josh slashed at Danny and put a rip in his outfit. That was closer than Danny would’ve liked and he knew he shouldn’t underestimate Josh’s skill even when he was bruised half to death. Danny returned the hit with a but of the trident, which sent him stumbling.

Josh looked up at Danny. He didn’t look like he wanted to help. He had a deadly look in his eyes. Josh immediately got scared. But he didn’t show it. His body was to rigid from bruises that he could hardly move. ‘Danny, mind helping?’ Josh asked, still having a little hope that he would be kind enough to at least help him up and leave him be. Josh knew he wasn’t going to see Issy or Taylor again. He just knew that what would be best for Danny would be to kill him. He wouldn’t have competition and Josh had to many injuries right now. He would be an easy kill. He tried to keep his fear of dying away from his eyes. Make it invisible to Danny.

Danny towered over Josh, “hmm, I don’t think my help will matter much.” he said coldly. Danny turned off any feelings towards Josh and turned into a monster, his eyes turned fierce and his hand gripped the trident.
Danny took a step closer to Josh and knelt beside him. Danny leant in and whispered in Josh’s ear, “Your not so tough now are you” Danny got to his feet and shoved his foot into Josh’s gut. “Not… so… cocky…” he said, each word with a kick. “I hate to think what Dahlia would feel seeing you like this, or even Issy. She was your first love right? I don’t think you ever got over her really, and Dahlia was just someone who helped you cope.”
Danny watched Josh try to rise off the floor but he wacked him with the but of the trident.

Danny shook both girls furiously and shouted instructions at them over the howling wind. “Can you guys pack the stuff up? I’m going to find josh!” he yelled over his shoulder as he raced off into the grass.

Josh had broken away from issy, Taylor and Danny to go back to their first traps and see if they had caught anything. He was walking back towards them when he saw something drop from the sky that didn’t look anything like a rain drop. He looked up and saw the sky a grey green colour. A frown…

Danny awoke very early in the morning to hear Josh rustling around and saw him walking down the path towards their previous traps. Danny shut his eyes and tried to go asleep again but the wind out side was getting fierce. Danny got up abruptly when the storm got particularly bad, and got his backpack and weapon. He shook the girls and told them to pack things so they could easily get away, then he went to look for Josh. He started walking slowly along his path but suddenly hard, cold, rock like things pelted down on him. He picked up his pace as he was struck over and over by these hard things. He soon reached Josh, who lay on the floor covered in bruises and blood. Danny immediately knew that helping him would mean getting more damaged himself and with Josh’s injuries he would be no help to their group, only a hindrance. So he stepped forward and made up his mind to take away his pain and to get rid of a big competitor at the same time.

Danny looked in the parachute also and the food definitely tempted him. “Maybe we could just have one small thing?” He asked and just to add to the effect his stomach grumbled loudly.

Isabella laughed, “Maybe you should eat a lot instead. Weren’t you supposed to be on a diet the past few weeks to prepare for this?” she said questioningly as she took a piece of dried fruit and ate. “Just eat, guys. We’ll go hunting tomorrow.”

Taylor lay and listened to their conversation but she sat up when Isabella gave her a piece, it did taste good after not eating all day.

Danny took a piece of an interesting fruit he hadn’t seen before and nibbled on it slowly. “Iwas mean’t to be on a diet but it didn’t work out that well.” He smirked. They all silently sat in their small grass covered shelter and took small bites of their dried fruit.

Taylor felt herself tense when she heard something rustle outside but she looked over and saw Isabella holding a parachute with bread and fruit inside. “I don’t feel like eating anything at the moment but if you are hungry go ahead.” Taylor said and lay back down.

Danny scrunched his face up as he looked at the bright lights in the sky. So many faces appeared and when they disappeared Danny knew that their memory would soon fade. Not only for all the districts watching but the game makers would also forget the victims of their first game….

Taylor looked down at the ground again and could tell there was no difference in the moist ness. “Guys it’s going to be a while until we reach the water. Let’s just rest here for the night and continue tomorrow.”

Danny agreed and took off his backpack. He looked around for a clump of dense, heavy grass. He walked over to it and sort of made it into a small, non protective shelter. He let the others go in first and covered them in grass and tarps so they were warm and camouflaged then he went in himself. He lay down next to Isabella and held her in his arms. They could see every thing outside so it wouldn’t be hard to keep watch from on their little shelter. “I’ll keep first watch”

Isabella…

Ooc: just gonna make this ooc. So sorry I haven’t answered but I’ve been rather busy. Could someone just do a para when they say what we did and where we ended up?? You can go on with out me if I don’t answer too. Sorry again!!!! But I am going to be away the next few days so just go on with out me

((No problem))
Taylor pushed her way through the talk grass but doubled over and held her ears as the Capitol anthem screamed at her. As a natural instinct she looked up for the noise source but only saw a flag plastered on the sky. It then transformed into her partners face. It was then she realized these were the dead people. Horrified and grateful at how many people had died that day Taylor sat down and held her head in her hands. Thoughts ran through her head and when it became to much she held her stomach and retched in an area of thick grass over to the side.

Danny scrunched his face up as he looked at the bright lights in the sky. So many faces appeared and when they disappeared Danny knew that their memory would soon fade. Not only for all the districts watching but the game makers would also forget the victims of their first game. Danny took Issy’s hand and looked down at her sad eyes. She held a face of steel and Danny admired her for her bravery.

Guys, Dahlia and I are on hold until you guys reach late night. Can someone throw in a time cue on your para? Depending on whose path you’ve been following, it probably should be after nightfall for you by now.

Could someone also tell me whose path you were following? Because from the descriptions in your para, I can’t tell.

^^^ Haha

It’ll be nighttime soon. If Josh or Taylor don’t say about it getting dark in their para then I’ll do it in my next one. Hm I don’t think we’ve been following anyone in particular but since the only living tributes who have gone that way are you and Pippa then we’re probably following you guys. :P

Taylor batted the flies off her face and looked back the way they had come. “We are closer to water than we were before. Because the grass here is greener and healthier.” Taylor then bent down to feel the dirt as Josh did. It wasn’t hugely damp and she couldn’t tell what way the water was. So she retraced her steps for a couple of metres and then felt to soil again. It was definitely dryer then further up the path. “We’re heading the right way.”

Danny watched as they tried to find the way to water. He knew he would be of little help so he stayed out of the way. “So we just keep walking and check for moistness in a while then?” He said and as others agreed he kept walking forward along the non-existent path.

Taylor watched Josh create a trap out of rope and was amazed. She went to follow the path that they were going to track but was overcome with exhaustion, now that the adrenalin had passed out of her system. Her head felt dizzy and she fumbled over her own footsteps.

Danny followed after Taylor and caught her as she stumbled. “Are you okay?” He asked her but she just shook him off. Danny shrugged and kept walking along the path, the others following silently behind. They kept walking along the path until they noticed that the person who’s trail it was had started to be sneakier and the track became harder to see.

Danny waited and made sure that Issy and Josh were okay before he started slowly making his way to the other side. The water refreshed Danny as the dried blood washed from his skin. The water was a dark blue colour and it was so deep that the bottom dissolved in darkness.

Due…

Josh swam toward the long grass. His suit clinging to him. The dried blood washing off him. When he reached the shore he pulled himself up and walked the rest of the way to the shore. He had his sword in hand in case he needed to defend himself or any one else quickly. He looked at the grass and the trampled grass paths. ‘Which one should we take?’ He asked.

Taylor looked around as Josh did and saw many wet and clumsy footpaths heading in many different directions. Taylor could see nothing of use the other side of the lake so she didn’t bother with that. Taylor bent down and inspected some of the tracks. She could tell which ones were the bulky, strong males because the footprints were heavier and deeper but she then found one of interest. The person behind the tracks obviously knew what they were doing because they were light on their feet and sneaky. “I suggest this one because they are good at moving around quickly and quietly. See?” she said signaling to the footprints. “They could easily sneak up on us…. Sorry just a thought”

Danny stood while the others looked at the trampled grass. He was never very good at that stuff and he had no idea how Taylor could have worked that out so he stepped back out of the way. But from what she said it seemed like a good idea. “Well I guess that would be better. I was thinking the big guys but now I think this is a better option. We could over power the others but someone sneaky is bigger threat probably… What do you think?” he said to Issy
