TEAM EIGHTEEN

[personal profile] fixations 2012-07-06 08:23 am (UTC)(link)
[It's a damp, muddy little ditch, but he doesn't have the energy to feel anything but disquieted relief for the shallow cover it provides.

He killed a man today. The night sky has finally confirmed it. The cannon must have fired, though he has no recollection of the sound. When he'd all but crashed into another team Griffith had been certain it was retribution. The gamemakers had somehow influenced their encounter and now he was going to be punished for what he'd done. They'd even taken his power from him, leaving him all but defenseless against unfair odds.

But, somehow, remarkably, they'd decided to let him go without a fight. The stronger-looking one, dark haired and narrow eyed, had claimed they could find him again any time, that they had more immediate problems. The blonde, who had looked so ready to attack just seconds before, deferred to the decision without complaint, even smiled at him and wished him luck. That's three men he's found today, and Griffith doesn't know which of them will haunt him longest.

No, that's not true. He doesn't even have to close his eyes to see the way blood had bubbled on his teammate's broken lip. He hadn't even remembered the name until that announcer had said it - he was called Xian. Xian is the stranger he killed, and Griffith doesn't know if Xian will let him sleep tonight. Trapped and alone and unarmed, he's not sure if he'll ever have the chance to sleep again.]
