The Hunger Games

Chapter 5

The Begining

My heart wouldn't stop pounding, I sprinted twards the Cornicopia and almost tripped. Cannon after cannon after cannon, the sound was almost a relive, I don't need to kill...But...one of them could be Emily. I finally made my way twards the cornicopia. As I reached the cornicopia I spotted a bag that looked jam packed with stuff. I ran and snached the bag. I spotted a series of red houses and I ran for my life.

As I ran I felt a pain rush through my ankle and up my leg. My bones felt sore and I felt something tear my flesh on my foot. I fell over and screamed in pain.

I looked up and saw a girl with red hair run up to me and pull a knife out from her belt. She sprinted twards me and tried to slit my throat. I took all of my strength and tried to pull away the knife. Just as I felt the blade touch my neck, I connected my fist to her jaw and shoved her off of me. I got up and ran.

I followed the path to safety and got away swiftly, my heart raced as I ran farther and farther from the cornicopia.

I finally settled down and cought my breath. The wind blew really hard and I shivered. I rubbed my neck and felt liquid. I took my hand off my neck and a crimson color covered my fingers.

After I noticed she cut me the pain settled in. Pain rushed through my neck and I tried to muffle my cries. I wiped off my blood and started my trek to find food.

I saw a building that said 'Bakery' and walked in. I was greeted my a punch in the face. The same girl before. She tried to slit my throat but to no avail, the door opens and the girl passes out by getting hit by the door. I get up grab the girls things and hide.

"Oasis?!" I hear someone shout. I get out of my hiding spot and I see Emily.

"Emily!" I run up to her and squeeze her guts out.

"Are you okay?! Are you hurt?!" I ask.

"No." I sigh in relieve.

"We got to go...It's not safe here..." I grab Emily's hand and run out of the Bakery. We make our way to a tree like area and sit.

I open my bag and find a half full water bottle, an arm warmer, a rope, cloth, and a pocket knife. I examine the items I got from that red head.

I found a knife and a lot of bread and pastries. Emily showed me her pouch. She had a wooden sturdy bow with arrows, water, food, a rope, and a pain relieve gel. Emily and I climb a tree and get a warmer and rope. We fell asleep, Katniss style.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

The smell of burning wood and leaves polluted the air. My eyes burnt and my head felt nauseated. My eyes slowly opened and fire was, everywhere. The houses, trees, plants, were on fire. I looked down and the tree we were in was on fire. I looked beside Emily and found a note.

'Dear Oasis,

It's time to die. Look under the branch you're on.

-Steff'

I look under the branch and find a bomb.

"EMILY! RUN!" Emily jumps.

"RUN!!!" I shout. Emily packs up and jumps on the ground and runs. I untie myself and jump off the tree too.

We run into the open. A heard a loud buzz and then and there, the bomb went off... The explosion made a loud screeching sound. Emily was still running, but the explosion caught up with me. The fire made contact with my skin. It burnt, peeled, and ripped off my skin like acid. My screams echoed throughout the city.

~~~Emily's POV~~~

I turned around and spotted Oasis. She's on fire! But, the fire, it looks different...it didn't look like regular fire. Wait...I've seen these before! It's an acid bomb. I saw a stash in the cornucopia!

"OASIS!!!!!" I yelled.

"EMILY! RUN!!" She replies. Soon the fire goes away and I see Oasis sitting on the ground.

~~~~Oasis's POV~~~~

My whole body felt like noodles. I couldn't move, talk, or even breathe...My lungs hurt and I felt like shit...I...I felt...pain....my living flesh, being torn off of my body...my heart hurt. I closed my eyes and wished for death...

My eyes shot open...

"No...I-I can't give...give up...I need to protect...E-Emily...Emily!!" I say. The pain...it..hurts...

Tears rush down my face. Even my tears hurt on my skin...I cry, even tho it hurts...I can't take it...

My eyes slowly close.

"Em...Emily..I...lo..love you.."

~~~Emily's POV~~~

Her skin was peeled...blood was everywhere...I sprinted towards her and pulled cloth out of my bag. I wrapped it around her wounds and rub the healing treatment on her wounds.

"AHHHHH!" She screamed. I stuffed a rag in her mouth.

"No..Oasis...please don't leave me..." I whisper.

"I love you...don't leave..."

A tear rolls down my cheek...
