The food lasted me for just two days. Two days of pure torture, two days of dismay and tears. I lost everything, just because of the games. I lost my life, I lost THE life, OUR life, the baby. And it's just because of the cruelty of our lands. I just want to hold Marvel again, touch him, be with him and our baby, but it's no use. This is a game and Marvel has already lost.

There's just me, the two (fortunate) lovebirds, Cato, and Thresh. Cato terrifies me the most, he's the strongest and the well trained, and I know that with just one flick, I would die, and I doubt he'd just do it one flick, I know that I'd feel every second as he slowly drags his sword onto my skin, enjoying my pain.

I trudge along the woods, the sadness and anger in my heart, and the fear in my brain, as I reminisce the familiar steps, the steps the forest I have walked through during Marvel's last hours, I have grown accustomed to. I camp out where he died, the willow tree where his blood trickled. I always picture him there, but not as a dead man, but as a father, playing with our would be child, sitting in the grass, laughing and inviting me to join them. I would reach out my hand, eager to come, eager to leave the mess where I am, but it's useless, because I know the only way to reach him is to end my life as well.

And the worst part is, I think the possibility of me joining Marvel is very high, as the days pass by.
