Tanner Helms POV:

I have never been good with a weapon. Never in my life. Nico sat by the river and I travelled along it spearing fish. Not that I was good I caught somethings. Not many just small fish enough to eat. I watched as Angela from district twelve came running towards the forest near us. 

Before I could even think she spotted us and had a knife ready. That was until I watched suddenly as she fell to the ground in pain. Blood poorer out of her chest and scurried all down her in little streams. Who ever killed her was near. 

"Holy... You think the person is close?" Nico asked.

I nodded and stepping backwards slowly. I quickly looked into the woods scanning for any movement. 

"Shit! For the love of god!" Nico cussed from behind me.

It was odd from him... I turned and cocked an eyebrow. At him. "you ok?" 

"For the most part." He looked to me and gripped his arm. 

He'd obviously split a cut again. Snapping twigs alerted me that we weren't alone. I held my spear shakily towards the nose in the darkened forest. 

"S-show yourself." I demanded shakily. 

"You aren't going to kill me?" the person asked.

It was a she, the voice was soft but a little frightened. 

"If you're not going to kill us." I offered. 

It was only silent for a few moments and then a small sigh. "Deal, but I'm not staying."

With that we heard footsteps and the girl left. Whoever she was had killed the sadistic girl and left us to live. It was enough to have less blood on my plate. 

"Dude, let's get moving before she decides to come back. I don't easily trust people." Nico murmured looking to the forest.

"Alright." I nodded taking off with him, well as best we could with his fresh wounds.

"This is the last time I let you drag me out for bathing and fishing. I like meat but not badly enough to become the next meal." Nico smirked a little over at me.

"Sorry, didn't know he sadistic demon was near." I apologized. 

"S'okay but next time let's stay in the god damn tree." He sighed reaching the trees' edge. 

"Okay." I agreed it would probably be best for now.

Priscilla Willows POV: 

"They've been gone for almost a whole two days!" I groaned nearly pulling out my hair.

"Hush Priscilla I swear they'll return... Angela will return." Nathaniel was hesitant with those last words. 

He hated her I know. I wasn't big on her emotionless state but some thing about her reminded me of Having my own child. I'd already lost my future daughter or son. I would have been a mother by now but not this time. Not now since I was on the verge of death in here. I feared for Angel though. I blame the damn hormones. 

"For fuck sakes stop the bloody pacing. You're driving me insane!" Jaclyn snapped from the couch. 

I turned to her and glared, she really had nerve. "Aren't you at least worried for their safety?" I threw back.

Jaclyn stood and hissed down at me. "I do but I know we're lucky of they fucking die. Believe it or not miss saint but the more dead it means our victory!"
