" Fine, go but as soon as I finish this, I'm going to you.  At least let me do that."
" Okay." I said back to him.

I hear a cannon in the distance. I decided to shake it off.

I go into the woods and I keep walking until I see a rabbit.  I shoot it and put it in my pouch, that I made the sponsor parachutes.  It's small but it's something.   I see a squirrel mutt.  I also shoot that and put it in my pouch.

I see a flying bird over head.  I am about to shoot it when I hear.  Footsteps crunching on the leaves.  Then I hear laughter,hinting they are close by.

I stand frozen in place as I hear one voice say,"The stupid girl never saw that coming. "
Then they all started laughing.  I recognized the voice.  It was Alex, the career from District 1.

  He has clearly been named the leader of the career this year.  I tried to run but I fell over.  I'm still a little woozy from the fall I had last week.

" Hey look, look over there! " I hear one of them say. It was naveah. ¡Crap! I tried to get up and run but she jumped on me.  Flipped me over So I am facing her.

" Nice try girl of ashes." She said with a sinister smile.  She pulls out a knife.    I need Tyler. I need him right now! " TYLER!!  TYLER!!" I scream.  

" Awe wheres lover boy? Is he not keeping up to the promise he said in the interview.   He'll protect you at all cost, Ha, look at where you are now." Jennifer said.

" Well, we are going to get him and kill him right after we kill you." Noslen said.    I started to breath heavily. 

" No,no,no!"I kept saying. I gathered enough strength and kicked her off of me. 
"Leave him alone!" I yelled. I took my arrow and started to run.

She threw a knife and it stabbed me in the back of the right leg .
" Aagh!" I cried in pain.   I took it out,thankfully it wasn't deep, and aimed my arrow at them.

I shoot one. It hits Noslen right in the forehead.  He drops to the ground with the sound of a cannon.   I aimed the arrow again.   Then Alex was about to throw a spear.  

But someone pushed me out of the way. Jennifer  comes running toward us and Tyler stabs her with his knife." And Jennifer  I am keeping that promise. "

She falls dead.

"This isn't the end Girl of Ashes!"Alex yelled and ran away with Naveah. 6 tributes left
