The HungerGames (Clove+ Cato)

Cato's P.O.V.

CATO:  Once we got into groups, me and Glimmer started for the deeper woods thinking the other tributes might've gone there. We were walking on dirt under 80ft trees.It was very shady. Almost couldn't see. We put on our night vision goggles. Better.

We were in deep. Suddenly I heard scratching sounds. I stop Glimmer. I think she hears it too. We freeze. What is that sound. There are more and more of it. It's becomeing louder. I get out swords and pass one to Glimmer. We just stand there frozen, waiting for any movement. Out of the darkness, a figure jumps out! It is bird, I think. Big claws. Humongous beaks. Mutts. I start to panic! What's going on? Isn't it to early for mutts? I need to kill them all. Before they get to Clove somewhere else in these woods.

I start throwing knives. But there are still more. They keep coming. Glimmer is doing fine hiding behind a stone boulder. I grab the sword I gave her and start killing them off. I look around. Nothing but green forest, spilled with blood. I hear Glimmer screaming," Heeellpp!!" repeatidly. I run to see the big beasts growling and hold glimmer, by it's claws and about to fly away. I punch the bird. No use. I try to cut it's head off with the sword, But the edge of his wings slaps my face. It felt painful. Probably had some sharp material. I try again, and i kill the last one. I barely have any muscle or energy left. There can't be a nother mmutt pack because I don't think I could hold them up. I release Glimmer from the claws of the beast. The claws are in deep. I pick them out. An pick up Glimmer and start to run. I hear no canon, so that means she isn't dead. Just lost lots of blood. She wouldn't survive another attack of anything.

I run back to camp. Put Glimmer down. And I see Marvel running, Peeta behind him with a deer, and Clove. I am relieved she's alright. Marvel is going nuts.

"She's going to be alright man." I say.I feel sorry for him actually. In fact it's the first time since the games began, that I had any feelings.  It's obvious he loves her. No one says anything about my bruises and wounds, but I take care of them myself. Peeta and Aaron come in with leaves, to help Glimmer. Glimmer thanks them. Wow. How will these people survive? They are too kind. But I need to get Clove out alive. So I stand up and say to Peeta

"Lead the way loverboy."

Does he really love Katniss? If everyone in the arena has a lover this year. Then we're in trouble. In fact we already are.
