The Tributes are woken up early for this Arena, and switched from whatever sleeping attire they're currently in to a set of pajamas, each designed for the individual in questions. Women wear onesies, and most of the men wear two-pieces, but other than that any similarities are at random - the outfits are in all sorts of colors and patterns.

The floor of the helicopter taking them to their Arena location, and of the underground entrance to the tubes that hoist them to the surface, will feel cold under their bare feet.

Rather than bringing them to sunlight, like the tubes have in the past, instead the Tributes are presented to a dark concrete ceiling in a badly-lit parking lot. Fluorescent lights do little to illuminate the cavernous space.

The countdown begins, announced as if from far away.

The Cornucopia, a ghastly thing carved from stone and concrete, sits at the center of a pattern of white and yellow lines reminiscent of spots for parked cars. The painted lines create a sort of spoked wheel, providing lanes for the Tributes leading to the prizes at the center. Some of the more unfortunate Tributes will find the concrete architecture has placed pillars in their lanes.

Six parked cars lie around the outskirts of the huge lot, barely visible in the dim lighting. Glowing exit signs on two opposite sides of the chamber announce where Tributes should go to escape the bloodbath. Elevator doors are perched beneath them.

The gong rings out, and the countdown's voice announces "the Arena is now open". The Games have begun.

Where| Desert arena
When| Week 6
Warnings/Notes| Death

Ian could have sworn he hadn't done anything. He'd just been minding his own business, shivering despite the warmth of the day, and he'd come around a plant that looked a bit dead to find a bison. He wasn't very worried about one and thought nothing of it until he realised it was looking at him. And then it was coming at him.

Instinctively he froze for a moment. When he'd recovered his senses he hoped the bison wouldn't see him if he kept still, but it gave no indication of veering from its course towards him. His already shallow breaths and fast heartbeat grew faster, and at the last minute he hurled himself sideways.

He cried out as his bones, unprotected by any body fat, hit the ground hard. The bison's feet only just missed him, but kicked enough sand into his eyes to make them red and watery.

Warnings/Notes| Lindsey's going to kill Parker. Parker won't go easily.

With Eliot being gone, the number of people Parker trusts in this arena is down to 0. Still, she's without shelter, and is skirting along the edge of Fantasyland. There's too much weirdness for her to actually step in this section of the park.

She's a bit scuffed from an earlier altercation, and Parker's getting hungry. Also, she's still yet to sleep in the last 57 hours. It's too bad she can't have the short naps Eliot does. She needs to learn that skill.

While not looking for anyone she knows, she may not be as quick on the uptake as she usually is.

Where| She's creepin' around everywhere, let me know in your subject line!
When| The last few days.
Warnings/Notes| None atm.

At first she'd just holed up in the safest place she could fine, the pain too intense to even imagine running around in a death match. She had expected someone to ferret her out and off her pretty fast, quickly ending her trip to the unhappiest place on earth.

Except...no one did. The pain didn't really fade, as De was fairly certain something in there was broken, but hunger and thirst pushed her out. And it wasn't the first time she had grit her teeth and bared it.

Luckily, the skirt provided plenty of fabric to bind her chest, which helped with the pain. She slept during the day, when it was brightest, burying herself in her skirt, and then moved from dusk till dawn, trying to stay hidden as much as possible while searching for food and drink.
