It was morning the sky was just starting to get light I had stayed awake all night not waking up the others. I had searched what I had gotten in my backpack and found a sleeping bag witch I was now wrapped up in. Three days worth of food and water, A rope, a hunting knife witch was strapped to my thigh. and to my suprise two kanata's long curved asian swords. I practiced a bit to warm up but then put their sheaths on my belt and sat there. As the seconds ticked by till eight I thought about our next strategy. We would head to a better spot. Then Out of the blue a scream ripped through the air and I turned to find the blond girl from district 13 running at me. Steph, Micheal and Bryson all sat up blearely but then I had already struck. My muscle memory started before I even throught. I side kicked her in the gut then drew my swords. I lashed out and her dying gasp was the last thing I heard. I stared at her mangled body thought what did then I slumped to the ground gasping.

Micheal and Bryson searched her pack and Steph was making breakfast. I stared into space as Steph turned and help out a plastic foldable plate with dried berries and some kind of beef jerky on it. I took it but didn't eat. I was in shock. Steph sat down as the boys approched. They seperated the girls food. And blankets. Bryson sat next to me and took the plate Steph offered him. "Thanks" he said. He started eating I managed to pull myself out of my stuper to take a bite. It tasted bland and tastless. I ate it all then packed up. The others followed suite I shouldered my bag and we started heading west towards the pine trees that were taller than the walls. I staggered. Steph ran forward and supported me what's wrong? She asked. Just tierd I managed to gasp. Before I knew it Steph had prepared camp and convinced the boys to rest just for awhile. then I staggered to my place and collapsed my eyes fluttered and then I fell into a deep dreamless sleep.

I woke up and we started again. We walked for hour upon hour until we came into a clearing it was full of fir trees and snow. I saw how deep it was and pointed out this would be the best place to camp. We talked about it and decided to set up camp under one of these trees in their tree wells. Then Bryson said. But they are too small for four people to share a tree. so we decided on two trees right next to one another. Ste—and  I started but Micheal inturupted saying. Steph and I can share one. "No!" I said suprising myself and the others. The boys should share one the girls another. The boys looked at me and I glared at them "Sure" Micheal said. I turned to Steph and said "come on." We went to one tree and started digging.

When we were done digging and were getting ready to unpack Steph said. ?Why did you make the boys take one tent and the girls another?" She sounded angry. All the anger I felt Bubbled inside of me. "Because" I said shakely "You get to have your own Boyfriend here and I don't because he is taking my best friend away from me because you two think that you will win and you don't need us. That is why." Steph looked shocked "We are not planning any of that!" "Yeah?" I shouted without hearing her. "Then Maybe you and your ikkle wittle Michael should just stay and look after Bryson. I yanked off my bracelet and threw it at her. Live by yourself. Goodbye Stephanie." I Grabbed my bag and Weapons and ran out into the maze.
