Once we arrived back to the cornucopia after we killed the girl by the fire,Cato wouldn't speak. We searched for two more hours and never found Katniss.
"Wake up! You too baker boy!"Cato yells. I never knew how truly demanding he was. I find it surprisingly attractive.
I stand up slowly after resting my head on a backpack for the night.
"We're starting early today!"
Clove walks up to him and rubs his back and whispers into his ear. Something is going on, And I need to know it. Cato whispers back to Clove, and smiles.
Once they separate, I walk up to Clove.
Take a deep breath, Glimmer. No need to get feisty, I think to myself.
"Is there something I should know?" I ask Clove, trying my best to contain my hate towards her.
She gives me a fake puzzled look.
"With you and Cato" I elaborate.
"Nope. Nothing" exclaims plainly.
"Then why do you you spend so much time together?" I ask, a little bit more enraged this time.
"We're friends. You wouldn't know that, you aren't from our district!"
"Fine. Don't tell me. But I'm gonna get to the bottom of things" is all I say as I storm off back to Marvel and Cato.
"Are you guys ready yet? I want to go." I complain. Peeta stands by the sidelines, lost in his own world, not saying a word.
"Okay let's go!" Cato announces, and we sprint off into the woods.
"Which way should we go?" Marvel asks.
Cato ignores him,and keeps running, while scanning his perimeter, of course. I really want to stop for a minute, and catch my breath. I see Peeta has the same problem. But that is a sign of weakness to Careers, so I grit my teeth, and pick up my pace.
Cato suddenly stops, and Marvels shoulder. " Can you hunt?" he asks him.
"Yeah. what do you need killed."
In front of us is a wild groosling, ready to eat,I'm actually quite hungry.
Within a second, Marvel tosses his spear at it and lodges it right in the neck. Great shot.
We all smile and giggle as we pounce up to it.
Before anyone suggests it, I make a fire on the very spot. I grab a couple sticks, and rub, just like in the training center. The careers don't really acknowledge it out loud, but I bet their relieved I can do it, you would be surprised how many can't.
Once the animal is cooked and edible, we gobble it up in less than five minutes, and we even let Peeta have a little.
The moment he finishes, Cato stands up. "It looks like there is some freshwater up ahead. We should be on our way there. Then we can continue our search after we get a quick drink of refreshment.
Instead of running, we go in a light jog, since we aren't in a huge hurry anymore.
After we turn the corner, something, or I should say someone, catches my eye.
"There she is!" Marvel shouts.
