I woke up early in the morning as the sun rose. I woke Flora and April up. We leaped from the tree and hunted. I killed a rabbit and cooked it over a small fire. We ate it happily. I kicked the ashes out of the fire. The three of us walked through the forest. This was the wild part. Untamed and empty besides animals. We would probably come across some people willing to assist us. But not many.

"April wanna climb that tree to see if there's anything ahead?" Flora suggested.

"Sure." April nodded. April scaled the tree with ease. She leaped down.

"I can make out something in the distance not sure what though. Probably miles away." April informed brightly. I nodded.

"Wonder what will happen to us if we're cought." Flora worried.

"We'll be fine." I assured, "we won't be found." I grabbed Flora's shoulder. Flora smiled at me. April grabbed my hand. I grabbed Flora's.

"We stay together." April began.

"Forever." Flora added.

"Nothing will keep us apart." I smiled. We laughed a little.

We had many differences. Three girls who looked different. Acted different. Came from different districts. Had different skills. Laughed different. Talked different. We still have things in common. We fought in the Hunger Games. We killed. We protected. We experienced pain. We loved. We lost. We won. We where on our own. To defend ourselves. And too do what's right.
