| Who: Eponine and Justine, and Eridan, and OPEN! What: Eponine has heard Eva's transmission and realised what it means Where: The Tribute Tower, and out and about. When: Straight after Eva's transmission Warnings: GALORE. Death, murder, breaking and entering.
From somewhere within the Tribute Tower comes an almighty scream. It lasts long, and Eponine continues to scream inside her head long after her voice has given out. It cannot be happening. It cannot be true. Her mama - God! She falls to the floor where she stands in the common room, legs giving out beneath her. It can't be true. It can't be.
"Mama! MAMA!" She screams frantically into her dead communicator. Where IS Eva? What has she done? Eponine needs to get to her before they kill her. She needs to stop it - God, what is she going to do?
She bolts immediately, running out of the Tribute centre, still holding her useless communicator, still half dressed in her pyjamas and a hoodie. She has no idea where to go, so she runs through the streets of the Capitol, straight towards the official government ones, to beg help, to plea for Eva's life, to offer her own for Eva's. Anything to keep her mama alive and there and unharmed. She runs and she runs and she runs.
After a while, when she can't run any more, she stops. She slides down the side of a house until she's sat on the floor, clutching her sides, trying to get her breath back. She's never going to get Eva back, just begging for it. They're not going to execute Eponine in Eva's place. And Eponine can't find Eva at all. She has no idea what to do, and she kicks her feet at the floor, frustrated. How could Eva do this to her?
Her hands fall from the side, and she scrabbles in the dirt idly whilst she tries to figure out what to do next. "I..." Her fingers close over a rock, and she looks down, a plan forming. Had Eva not said to cause mayhem?
She stands up, and considers the house with the big windows in front of her. And then she takes aim and throws the stone, shattering the window with a crash!.
(Feel free to have your character run into Eponine in the Tribute Tower, or in the street, or breaking and entering!) |
