That took too long TW: BUGS, MENTIONS OF BL00D --- A loud buzz startled Hemlock from xier thoughts, signalling the entry of another tribute for the Gamemaker. Xe didn't move, only twisting xier ear in the direction in an attempt to here it better ``Hemlock Woods, please enter`` Oh? Xe stood, stretching xier stiff muscles and entered as quick as possible, not pausing while xe grabbed a throwing dagger, it's cold edge gleaming wickedly. The moment xe entered, the first thought was, what / happened? / The second was, gross. Bugs of all shapes and sizes crawled over stones and the rotting trees. Even the smell alone was enough to make him sway. Xe scanned the room. Hemlock could see the flower in the center, surrounded by bugs. Xe could see where other tributes had shot, slashed, and stabbed to the heart After a moment to collect xiemself, xe lept forward, slashing at vines that tried to tangle around xier paws and bugs that climbed over xier legs. One bug that looked like a beetle clamped onto xier leg and attempted to drag xiem down. Xe shook it off and stab it through the gap in it's shell, bl00d smeared across the dagger Xe reached the flower. It's smell seemed to barrel into xiem, making xiem stumble. Great, messing up just as you reach your goal. Hemlock plunged a paw into the flower, grabbing and reaching. C'mon...c'mon.. Xe grabbed the plastic heart and ripping it out unceremoniously. Hemlock turned to where the Gamemakers stood. A few less then happy words echoed through the chamber and a not so graceful gesture followed and with a smirk xe left, the door slamming
