Inside The Arena.
The body count is finally starting to stack up to entertainment standards and boy does it look to get better. Drama, romance, violence and the trial of the human condition, and the reminder of sacrifice that must be made for the hope of tomorrow. Only viewers at home in the Capitol would have noticed in the bottom of their screens a countdown timer that has been ticking since the last time the button was pressed earlier this week. Well my friends, count down is over!
We focus in on the massive cages on the eastern side of the island, that seem to now be showing some definite signs of movement. The floors beneath open up and.... oh my what do you suppose that is?!
Both cages now contain an 18-foot-tall, 8-ton tyrannosaur muttation. Twin bulls. And they do not look happy to be contained in those cages.
Those cages are rusted and weak. They cannot possibly contain the creatures for long. I give them 15, maybe 20 minutes before those cages are nothing but busted scrap metal, and we've got a game of tribute chase on our hands!

Rains keep falling. The island still shrinking. The compound, now totally picked over, still remains without a force field surrounding it.

Re: Arena Plotting
Guy, Eddie, and Susannah go dino hunting because it's hanging around and they'd have to pass out in the open to get anywhere new. They're pinned against the acid ocean and it's rapidly eating up ground. There's thick forest for cover that the T-Rex can't maneuver in but to get anywhere else they have to move in the open where it can get them and they can't stay there forever, supply-wise. They set a trap for the dino and go dino hunting. Maybe they get injured? The thrashing dino means Susannah accidentally shoots Eddie? Basically we put anything in there people wanna do. Then Azula ambushes, killing or fatally injuring whoever isn't dead yet except for Guy. Then Guy attacks Azula, nicking her with his spear or knife or both, which he poisoned. Since he mixed a bunch of plants for it, he chanced on a mix that was really potent. And ironically, he got the idea from Azula herself so she's kinda hoisted by her own petard there.
How would that work for everyone?
