The Games

"Pssst"

"Pssst"

"Alan get up, we need to leave now..." I heard a whisper.

"AHHHHHHHH!!!!!" I screamed.

"What, what. What's wrong???" Janessa asked, as she knelted down towards me.

"They took Amy!" I yelled.

"Who's Amy?" Janessa asks.

"My sister... And they have her," I say.

"No, no... She's fine, they're not going to hurt her nor touch her," Janessa says trying to calm me.

I sat up to see Janessa, Jordan, Jade, and Caleb were already awake. I accidentally woke up Janiza with my crazy freak out. I could hear Janiza behind me yawning.

"What happened?" She asked.

"I had a dream... They had her, and she was killed in front of me..." I said.

"You're just very depressed," Jordan says.

"Depressed, huh?" I asked.

"You'll be okay Alan," Janessa says.

"What time is it?" Janiza asked.

She looked past me, and I looked at Caleb in front of me.

"Exactly 6:30," Caleb says.

Janiza got up and grabbed both of her axes. I turned to my right side looking for my bow. Once I've found it, I got up, and discussed the plan for today.

****

I finally calmed myself down, and tried to forget the dream.

"Okay, I have a plan... We head out for the cornucopia, and get ready to kill the careers," I said.

Janiza was the only one who seemed to clap in the group.

"Do you mean that in a rude way?" Jordan asked.

"Nope... It just means it's about time," Janiza replied.

I sighed, "Caleb, Jade do you guys know where the cornucopia is?"

"Yeah... We just need to leave now," Caleb says.

I looked at everyone now, " Alright, we're going to leave to the cornucopia. I need you guys to watch out and if you see them, kill them!" I said.

They all nodded and we left. We ran through the forest leaving the "Brains" giving the directions through the forest. The rest of us all had our weapons out, following them at the same time. It was finally getting brighter in the sky, which was getting easier for Caleb and Jade to see the forest better.

"We're almost there," Caleb says.

What time is it?" Janiza asked.

"6:54," Jade says.

I actually did feel a bit excited to go back out to the cornucopia. Then that's when we made it to the cornucopia. We were all hidden in the tree-line, but we were all able to see it pretty far away. The careers didn't seem to nearby. We all ran towards the cornucopia. It was the same color, iron white, but I noticed they restocked the place. More weapons. I walked on the steps on the the statue. Then walked onto the platform on the statue. I looked inside while others also looked outside of the statue. I was looking for more bow and asked if they were outiside. But they weren't. But eventually I found some in a chest. I grabbed a new quiver, and headed outside.

"You guys have everything?" I asked.

They all responded with a," Yes, or yeah?"

"Hold on, let me grab my axes on the right side of the stucture," Janiza says.

Janiza ran to the right side of the structure's entrance. I followed her, and so did everybody else.
