My aim with my knives are getting better by the hours. I barely got any sleep last night because I was up all night practicing, and Mordecai Sandy doing a good job keeping watch. Margaret never woke up. In fact, I would say it's about 8 A.M. and they're still not awake. I now know why Mordecai is called a slacker.
I climb down from the tree and wake Margaret up.
"Margaret. It's 8:00. WAKE. UP."
"5 more minutes..." She says, pushing the stick I was poking her with away from me. I smirked and had an idea. I stuck one of my knives in the tree.
"MORDECAI! MARGARET! WAKE UP! A TRIBUTE AIMED FOR US AND THEIR KNIFE GOT IN THE TREE!" I say, panicking. They quickly rise.
"LEAVE US ALONE!" Mordecai says pulling out his spear.
"This knife is mine," I say, taking it out of the bark. "I said that to wake you up."
"Mordecai groans. "Really Mabel?" He says.
"It could happen! I don't want you to get hurt!"I say.
Margaret goes to put her bow in her backpack when she gasps.
"The bread."
We all put our bread in Margaret's backpack yesterday.
It wasn't in there.
"OH NO," Mordecai says.
"We still have cheese," Margaret says.
"ONE THING OF CHEESE!" Mordecai says, freaking out. Then, something goes into our tree and flies past us, nearly killing me.
Someone was after us.
An arrow was in our tree, and I knew EXACTLY who was shooting it: Penny from The Amazing World of Gumball.
The worst part about the arrow was that it was on fire.
