## Storyline

* Season 1

#### A Reaping of Life

The reaping continues in District 6, where Kalise Stewart attempts to run after her name is drawn. She is cornered by peacekeepers and surrenders to go peacefully. The next tribute is Leo Brink, who states that in the arena, he will happily kill cowards like Kalise who try to run away from their destiny.

#### Party of 24

Leo and Kalise wear outfits with jet panels similar to those found on the hovercrafts of the capitol. Kalise simply smiles and waves as Leo glares into the camera.

#### Swim or Sink

Kalise approaches Jay about an alliance because of their melanin, and during the conversation, Leo and Andrea join them, and the four of them agree to team up. As they finish, Eliza walks up, causing them to drop silent. Eliza asks them what they are doing, and Leo replies they are talking about how he has food poisoning and vomited all night last night, causing Eliza to get grossed out and leave.

#### Bloodbathed

The siren sounds, and Kalise sprints straight into the caves.

#### Nightfall

Kalise walks into a foggy, mountainous area, with Tyler and Natalie's portraits in the sky. Kalise walks for a while and finds what seems to be a mineshaft. Curious, she looks down into it but sees only darkness. Suddenly, the ground begins to shake, and the portraits in the sky vanish. She makes a mad dash, as the ground crumbles underneath her, revealing only the same empty darkness as the mines. She barely makes it to the cave as the last bit of ground gives way, and crashes into Leo. Leo explains where they've set up camp, and starts to lead Kalise that direction.

#### Sunrise

In the caves, Kalise and Leo reunite with Andrea, who explains the fire killed Jay. She also described how to cave collapsed just as she made it back, blocking the entrance. They keep walking to find an area with rolling pastures filled with cattle. They rejoice, realizing that they have hit a jackpot. Leo kills a cow, and cook it over a small fire, and the Melanin Alliance enjoy a great feast.

#### Call of Death

In the wide-open pastures, Andrea, Leo, and Kalise disagree on where to spend the night. Andrea first suggests walking to a nearby barn, but due to Andrea's age, Kalise doesn't trust her judgment, opting to stay in the field because she didn't know if they would reach it by nightfall. Leo prefers the shelter of the barn, and heads off with Andrea, leaving Kalise alone.

As night begins to fall, Kalise notices the cattle stomping their feet and glaring at her with strangely human eyes. Freaked out, she runs for the barn. As the starts to run, the heard of cattle follow, stampeding towards her. She sprints, and while she is exhausted, she manages to gain on the cattle and beat them into the barn, where she meets up with Leo and Andrea, who already had begun to rest.

#### Feast

As Leo and Kalise prepare to head to the cornucopia, Andrea refuses, saying that they can't force her to go anywhere. Kalise scoffs that Andrea can't be reasoned with, and the two decide to set off without her, leaving Andrea alone in the barn.

The tributes all hide in the caves near the cornucopia, or somewhere around it, as the hovercraft carrying the feast flies into view. As it lowers its cargo the ground, the forcefield in the arena blows out, and the illusion of a bright blue sky is suddenly interrupted by a grey one filled with circular ships of various sizes. A ship suddenly flies by, slicing through the hovercraft, destroying it, sending its shattered hull crashing to the ground.

Another military fortified hovercraft arrives and touches down in the cornucopia. President Spark walks out and demands that all the tributes get inside. Kalise needs no convincing, while a soldier has to drag a shell. The tributes are then flown back to the capitol.

Kalise wakes up to Aivius in her room. Kalise demands that he leave, but he refuses, asking her how she feels to be one of the first people to share an 8-way tie for the victor. Kalise refuses to answerSecond tab content goes here.
