The Games were one week in. They started very bloody, but the past few days had been calm. The positive thing is that 3 of the 4 careers were already dead. Only the male tribute from District 1 was left but once he was eliminated, Annie stood a good chance. 

Annie and Tyson had stayed together the first days, they hid in a cave and built a trap so that everybody who tried the enter the cave would be trapped in a net. By doing this, they were able to eliminate five tributes. But unfortunately, yesterday something terrible had happened. 

Yesterday night, Tyson heard a noise and he feared that it might be muts, so he and Annie moved out of the Cave to try to find where the noise was coming from. But, the noise they were hearing weren't muts, it were the two tributes from District 1 who were imitating muts to lead them out of the cave. Tyson moved out of the cave first and by the time Annie got out of the cave, one of them, the female held Tyson by his shoulders while the male took at his sword and beheaded him. Annie saw the whole thing and immediately broke down and started screaming but the female was coming at her and she knew that if she didn't react, she would be next. So she took her sword and slammed it into the female's stomach. She fell to the floor and was dead immediately. The male tribute saw and ran away as fast as he could. 

Lea was out of the victors' lounge because Seneca needed to talk to her. Finnick saw what was about to happen and he was glad that Lea didn't have to see this 'cause she wouldn't be able to take to see how their young tribute was slaughtered. 

But she must have forgotten something 'cause a minute after she left, she came in again. 

"Hey, sorry I forgot my phone, has anything happened while I was gone?" Lea asked as she entered the Victor Lounge, she saw Finnick, Tyler, Haymith, Gloss, and Cashmere plastered around the TV screen. 

"Woah, hey there. Don't come any closer, you don't want to see this," Haymitch said while he darted forward and grabbed her by her shoulders, attempting to pull her back out of the room. His half-drunk strength was no match for her though and she shrugged his arms off her and walked towards the TV screen where all of her friends were standing. 

"Omg, Tyson no, they are going to kill him," Lea screamed as she put her hand on her mouth. 

"Get her out of here," Tyler requested of Finnick. Finnick walked over to Lea and tried to grab her. 

"Get off of me," She said as she pushed Finnick away. 

"Come, on Tyson you can still do something, Move, Move!" She yelled at the TV screen

"Honey, they can't hear you, there is nothing you can do," Cashmere said as she walked over to Lea and tried to hug her. 

The next thing Lea knew, her legs had collapsed to the floor, and she was being held into Cashmere's chest. Lea began screaming and kicking wildly in Cashmere's arms but she only tightened her grip on her. 

"Lea, Lea, Look at me, calm down," Cashmere said, trying to get Lea's attention away from what had just happened. 

"He was only 13 years old, he didn't deserve this," Lea cried into Cashmere's arms

"I know honey, none of them deserve this," Cashmere said. 

"Finnick get over here!" Tyler yelled, Finnick was sitting on the couch, it was almost like he was frozen, unable to move as he watched the young boy from his district get beheaded. 

"Lea," Finnick whispered as he approached her. Finnick looked up at Cashmere who was carefully loosening his grip on her. "Here," she whispered as she held her arms open, allowing Gloss to pass the girl over to him. Once she was in Finnick's arms, she immediately collapsed.
