There was 15 tributes remaining.
"It's been a whole day and nobody has showed up here." Adrian groaned. "I want these games to be over and done with already, the food here sucks."
Juniper had grown quite tired of the rest of the careers complaining about the food. She knew back at home they probably had warm buffets waiting for them. Juniper learned in the past day that the four teenagers from Districts One and Two were very entitled and rich compared to herself.
Juniper had also decided to go barefoot, which probably wasn't best- however she liked being able to sense where people were coming from around her.
"Juniper and I will go to try and find food." Wade stood up, holding a sword in his hand. "You four should guard here, make sure nobody takes anything."
"You sure you don't want a third?" Maverick voiced, Wade immediately shook his head.
"We can handle our own." Juniper said. "Plus, I want to explore the arena instead of sitting here all the time."
Nobody else questioned anything further. Juniper led Wade out of the middle, avoiding all the landmines around them and into the giant field of flowers.
Wade hacked at the flowers that were now taller than him. He cut them down over and over, but they just kept on coming.
"How the hell are we supposed to find food if theres only flowers out here?" Wade was extremely annoyed. Juniper tried going on her toes to see over the flowers, but there was no luck at all.
"Look! There's a tree of some kind over there." Juniper said, pointing out over the flowers. She noticed a lot of leaves in a corner, so the two of them started making their way over there.
Juniper ran ahead, eventually the flowers had come to an end and they were met with a random giant tree. Juniper readied her weapon when she felt vibrations around the entire area. Wade finally emerged from the flowers with a loud sigh, but his mouth was covered by Juniper's hand.
"Someone's here." Juniper whispered. With Juniper's lead, they slowly walked around the area.
"Fuck off, Sawyer! This is mine!" A familiar voice yelled.
"It's ours! It was donated to both of us by Lennox!" A voice said back. "Stop yelling, we're in a death arena."
"Sylvia and Sawyer!" Juniper's face lit up and she ran over to where she heard them. Wade was whispering behind her wanting her to wait for him, but she didn't. She ran around the tree and saw the two sitting against the trunk.
