Night soon falls through the waging waves of war and far above the surface the slight shimmer of stars can be seen. Within the water a sense of calm develops as the currents drift into nothing and the tides turn still. Upon the backs of each Runner they feel their air tanks weighing them towards the ocean floor. The increased weight allows them all to sleep comfortably and safely in a spot of their choosing without the worry of being swept away. Suddenly the sound of music miraculously enters the water and on its surface the faces of the fallen flicker among the moving waves.
As the morning breaks massive tides and lightning hinder the sight of the large hover crafts appear at the surface. Fear fills the Runner's hearts as they worry for their safety in such a storm. One pod for every individual is delivered before the hover crafts vanish into the rising sun. The Runners scramble to open the pods and they discover that within each pod is a new air tank with instructions on how to equip it. Swiftly they all comply to preserve their precious air supply.
Meanwhile in the safety and luxury of the gleaming Capitol, celebrations of this year's Quell are in full swing. However, the most important piece of the Capitol's festivities lies in its center surrounded by massive televisions displaying the Running. Twelve Braziers with uniquely colored flames and numbers stand in a perfect circle for all to see as a physical representation of the competing Districts. Currently though the Districts Two, Five, and Eights' braziers are completely devoid of flames due to both of their Runners' deaths. Further more the Districts Three, Six, Seven, Nine, Ten, and Twelves' braziers are only half as lit as they originally were to represent the death of one of their Runners. As for Districts One, Four, and Eleven they remain fully lit and gloriously burning as both of their Runners remain alive within the Maze's walls.

Four faces find themselves flickering within the sea, four more souls lost in the darkness. With now only half of you remaining in the sea it is certain your sins are growing. Everyday that goes by the closer you are to survival, but also the more likely you are to have murder placed upon your hands. Perhaps you have already grown use to this way of life, perhaps its better than what you left. Either way if there is anything the past three days have taught you its that you can never know for certain how much more time you have left. Chandler Briggins -- District Five
Tauriel Sprite -- District Seven
Storm Winterselle -- District Nine
