Katniss

I’m sorry about Mags”, I tell Finnick after we’ve all recovered. He sighs. “She was never gonna make it”  “Guys,” Rory says. He motions behind us and I turn to see several multi-colored monkeys surrounding us. “Peeta”, I say. “Walk over here slowly”  Peeta looks back at me and then turns back around to see one of the monkey mutts roaring in his face and he slowly backs over to us. And that's when all hell breaks loose.

Prim pov
I slash at the mutts with my sais Finnick stabs them with his trident Peeta uses his machete and Rory uses his sword Katniss shoots them with her bow. I’ve just killed one when suddenly I’m blindsided by another it sinks its teeth into my shoulder and then into my arm causing me to cry in pain Rory runs over and stabs it with his sword he pulls me up causing my shoulder and arm to surge with pain he helps me under a tree branch and I collapse onto the beach the last thing I see is Katniss with tears streaming down her face before everything goes black.

Katniss pov
I run to Prim with tears streaming down my face, and gasp at the sight of her bloodied wounds. I sit down and place her head in my lap. “Someone get me something, some bandages anything” “There aren’t any'' Finnick says “The only thing at the cornucopia were weapons” I take a seashell “Someone go fill this with salt water it’ll kill some bacteria'' (Don't if that's accurate)Rory nods and runs towards the ocean with the shell. He comes back seconds later, “Hold her down” He tells me. I nod, and he slowly starts to pour the salt water onto Prim’s injuries. Prim jerks moans and whimpers, and it kills me. “Shhh '', I whisper, stroking her head “Shhh ''''I’m sorry Prim” Rory says sadly. He takes off his shirt and presses it against Prim’s cuts to stop the bleeding. “Help us Haymitch '' I say, looking at the sky.  “Hang in there, little duck”, I say, brushing her hair back. She whimpers in response, as the night goes Prim seems to get worse, her face looks pained as she sleeps, every time she shifts, it causes her to whimper or moan, I stroke her hair hoping it helps comfort her, a beeping sound makes me lurch up Rory runs to the parachute, he smiles and runs to hand it to me, There's a note "Put this on her cuts, stay alive H" I open the container it's the same stuff Peeta and I used to heal ourselves in the first games, luckily the container is a lot bigger because Prims wounds are a lot more serious, I immediately start applying the medicine to Prim's wounds, hoping that it works as well as it did last time.
