"That stuff is most definitely explosive." He stuffs some more food into his pack. "Should we warn him?"

 "Yes! Hey! Be careful with that stuff! Unless you want to be the first out of the games!"

 "We should move back still in case he makes the barrel explode and starts a chain reaction with the other barrels."

[Experience he/him]

As Experience sifts through the 'sand', he realizes that it has an unusual smell. Just then, someone calls out for him to be careful confirming his suspicions. It was gunpowder. Experience takes an involuntary step backwards, then resumes looking through the gunpowder more carefully. In the bottom, he finds a box and opens it.

@Doomstick, I want you to decide what's in the box. 

 

[Vapor she/her]

"Hey! Leave the gunpowder alone!" Eric yells. "You'll get us all killed!" He prepares to attack Experience if he doesn't stop.

[Wind he/him]

"We need to move back!" Wind runs back to the stream but stays within site of his friends.

What if the box sets of an explosoin!!!

Fadran grabs another leftover backpack, slinging the one he stuffed with food over his shoulder. "Let's go!" He runs back to the forest.

[Wind he/him]

"ERIC!!!!"

[Vapor she/her]

Eric runs to the stream, grabbing a second backpack.

Eric opens his new backpack.

Fadran opens up the dark bottle and checks to see what's inside.

[Wind he/him]

"What should we do?"

[Vapor she/her]

"We might need to watch him." Eric says, pointing to Experience.

[Wind he/him]

"Should I shoot him in the foot? Just to make him stop."

I don't want to blow up.

 

[Vapor she/her]

"Heel. Stay as far away from the powder as you can."

[Wind he/him]

"Do you think we should cross the river?"

Well, guys, I won’t be able to be on this game, unfortunately. School is starting for me in two days and I won’t have time to be in 2 RP threads... it’s just too much time for reading and writing. 

Sorry because of that.

 

[Vapor she/her]

"Good idea." Eric wades through the river, keeping an eye on @Experience.

[Wind he/him]

"Is it safe to do that?"

[Vapor she/her]

"From what I can tell."

[Elend Venture he/him]

     Though I jump off of my platform in a run as soon as the countdown is over, I still feel a little less nervous when I clear the deactivated mine field around my platform. I feel jumpy and taught, filled with energy, ready to jog up a mountain side or take on a dozen warriors. Oh wait, the latter is, after a fashion, what I am going to have to do. I should probably separate from this main group and go after the other individuals who left the cornucopia early. At least I didn't get to know many of them too well while at the Capitol, that would make it harder to kill them. I am surprised at the bloody thoughts, but know I shouldn't be. I maintain my sprint towards the stockpile that lies ahead.

     I run towards the cornucopia,  trying to not draw attention to myself and lunge for a naked longsword in the midway point between the center and the outer diameter of the cornucopia circle. I (assuming the first two actions were successful) take off at a full sprint up the creek where Gears went.

I think I shall give RPing in first person a shot for once. I am playing as myself after all. If describing all my actions so far in one post is too close to Godmodding then I'll definitely change it.

[Experience he/him]

Experience grabs the box from in the box, his dagger, and pack and run in a direction away from everyone else. Then he stops to see what is in the smaller box and his pack. 

[Wind he/him]

"Ok let's do this!" Wind jumps into the river and swims to the other end as fast as he can clearly not trusting the water.

 "Those two look like trouble."

Fadran watches him run off. "Looks like we have the Cornucopia to ourselves, now."

"Ugh!" Wind swims back across the river. "What now?"
