Well, hello there my unicorns. It's been like . . . three months or so? Guess, I missed writing alot. I hope you people out there still read this story. That's what I came back here to do. Anyways, I shall stop my ranting and continue to the story plot. The last one was pretty emotional.
- ♪ Page Summers. ♪
The tribute must have been mostly in the forest a lot, he must have been from either District 7 or District 11. He just used his common sense. Easy enough, there are huge tree's surrounding the cornucopia. The tribute just climbs the tree, and jumps into the circle. There must've been something inside the cornucopia to get himself out.
Though, I'm not sure with my theory. But, I'll give it a shot. I grab what I have--- which was only my District Token --- and run towards the forest behind. Ignoring the shouts and screams from the Tributes behind me, I sneak towards the nearest tree, which I can't be seen thoroughly then I climb it. The tree is slippery for some reason, I dunno why though. I walk towards the circle, my foot nearly slips.
I curse quietly to myself. Getting myself together, I pull myself together and walk to the rim of the circular like tube, which inside was the Cornucopia. There was no ladder, jumping isn't an option, it would break my legs. Suddenly, the floor I am currently standing on starts on moving downward. So, that's how that . . . person got his goodies. I think.
There were swords, spears, knives, daggers, axe's and other weapons I do not know the name of. Huge bags were full of food, water and other necessities I need to help me survive. I realize, that Theo was still outside. The wall was see-through in the inside, and through the outside it was just like a pitch black hole. My so-called friends weren't there. I was alone, only the tributes from 10 were outside. It was like they can see me through inside the Cornucopia.
I grab the medium and light bag. The lighter the better, easier to run. I think. I pick up some knives and daggers for Ariana. Two swords, one for Dan and one for me. Three spears for Violet, Theo and Max. I find some nets and sticks, Cara and Seath could make traps out of it. Currently, if someone attacks me right now, I wouldn't stand a chance with this heavy load. I better find them quick.
Suddenly, something white falls down right before me. I place my stuff down to see what it is. A parachute! Finally! Finnick actually cares to help me! I think. Inside the parachute was a little tin can, a useless tin can. What the heck is this used for! I think. I've already had enough of my mentor. The tributes from 10 aren't outside anymore, I guess they couldn't figure it out.
All the things I need are already with me. Now, how to get out of here. If I took the stairs route, how would I jump off the tree. The Gamemakers wouldn't be that stupid to kill a tribute because that tribute slipped and hit herself with a sword. There must be like an exit, an easy way out. I walk around feeling the metallic wall, for any levers or doors. Finally, there is this button, which I click and a small passage to the forest is right in front of me.
I slip through and now had mud in my hair. A lot of mud. I try to shake it off but it won't budge. My back was aching but, that didn't stop me. I continue to walk, thinking in why would Finnick send me a stupid tin can. Why would he go all the trouble to send me that. I sigh.
My team-mates were no where to be found. It's been like thirty minutes walking in this direction. Heck, I don't even know where they went. I slump down to the ground, I remember I have to protect Theo. How am I supposed to do that, when he isn't anywhere near my sight. I hear rustlings in the bushes. Annie move! Quick! Hide somewhere, anywhere where they can't see you! I scream into my head. I place my things down quickly, good thing the grass over here is thick.
I quickly plank down to the ground and didn't say a word. Through the edge of my eye I can see four tributes. Their faces unclear, but their voices were pretty loud. Or is it just me. Well, you are alone. So you are just talking to yourself.
"Jake, I'm tired! Let's stop walking for a while," says a girl.
"Can't you learn to shut up Cath? What happens if there are Career Tributes around," a boy says.
"Calm down. It's not like they're stalking us right now, the more you fuss the more likely some cannibal animal is going to eat us first!" a different boy replies.
There is another girl, but she isn't speaking. Is she mute or something? I think. They pass me by, not actually seeing me. Such a relief. I can feel my hands shaking. My feet was shaking too. I had to find my fellow friends, and Theo. I need too! I try to pick myself up, but I can't.
My leg is feeling numb, and random pictures of the people I cherish and knew were everywhere. A huge headache is coming through, its hard to keep myself awake. What the heck is wrong with you Annie! You can't fall asleep right now! You can be killed, how can you protect Theo?
A shot of adrenaline got through me. I can't stand up, but I grab my things and put them on my back. I drag myself, forward, the opposite direction of where the other tributes went. Blood trickles down my wrist from the vigorous dragging. I wince in pain. After a few minutes of moving, I fell something wet touch my fingers. Water.
I am so thirsty. Maybe that's whats making me so weak, dehydration. I can't just lick the surface of the water. It might be contaminated with mosquitos and worms. Wouldn't want that in the digestive system. I start coughing like madly, and I hear the rustling of the bushes. I try to cover my mouth, but it was too late.
My eyes shut close as I prepare for death. I can't move, though I have weapons as they do not. Eventhough I could wound or scar one of them, it wouldn't matter. They would out-member me instead. I faint thoroughly on the ground and dream about the stars. The goodbyes I never could say and the pain flowing away.
