The 71st Hunger Games
Chapter 23:
I don't know how long I sit there crying over Lazail's dead body but it must have been a long time because before I know it I can hear birds chirping and I know it's nearly dawn. I have to get some rest but I'm too shocked by the situation the do anything.
It all happened so soon.
One minute I was killing a bird and the next thing I knew Lazail was lying dead in the ground.
Deciding finally that I was never going to get sleep and that I should do something productive instead I made a mental list of all the people who had died:
District 1:
District 2: Girl
District 3: Girl
District 4: Boy
District 5: Girl
District 6: Both
District 7: Lazail
District 8: Both
District 9:
District 10: Both
District 11: Girl
District 12: Both
10 children left (including me) and three of those happen to be careers!
So the people left were:
1: both
2: boy
3: boy
4: girl
5: boy
-
7: me!
-
9: both
-
11:boy
As soon as I did this I stood up and walked away from Lazail's body. Not looking back
_
I soon found myself near what looked like a camp, maybe another tribute took refuge here. I tried to scavenge around for supplies but all I could find was a torn up sleeping bag. I took a bit anyway because it can always be used as a bandage in an emergency situation and it's better to be safe than sorry.
I found no other sign of anyone else being here so I decided to set up my own stuff here seeing as it was probably going to get dark soon and I was so tired from a lack of sleep.
In a way I was kind of sad that I didn't find anyone else. I was looking for a fight, something to get all my anger out on. If someone crossed my path I would have attacked them with no mercy. Don't get me wrong playing a poor girl who couldn't even lift an axe up was fun, but it was a big change from my usual more aggressive self and I was getting bored of being in this damn arena.
Before it got pitch black, I knew I needed to light a fire and cook the bird I got earlier today, so I gathered all sorts of thing and set them alight. I slowly roasted my bird and ate it, guts and everything, I was too hungry to care seeing as I hasn't eaten anything since the day before yesterday.
I stomped out the fire before tucking myself in my sleeping bag behind some plants and logs in a little ditch in the ground. It was going to be a long night .
