Hunger Games

Alexandra P.O.V

I stared around the area frozen on my podium, my eyes darting around the arena. I was surrounded by sand on my left side, tall and dark oak tree woods. On my mountain, I could see rocks around the base that formed caves.

I looked ahead and saw the Cornucopia shining sliver, my eyes landed on a glistening rack of knives, a jacket with the insides lined with knifes and a belt lined with knives. I smirked to myself and tensed up and the gong went. I sprinted to the Cornucopia; I was fast the first one there.

I snatched up the belt and jacket before shoving another knife into my pockets. I slung a backpack onto my back and slipped a bag of dried apples into my pocket. I grabbed another knife from the ground before turning around and facing the boy from district 3, he was standing there frozen and scared.

I flicked the knife into his chest and pulling it out I threw it at another girl from district 9. I smirked to myself and began to run towards the woods away from the murderous careers and dying tributes.

I sprinted through the dark and looming trees. I bashed into someone, I looked up scared and saw Daniel standing above me a spear clutched in his hand.

“Dan” I said while slowly crawling away from him backwards

“Alex there you are” Dan reached down and pulled me to my feet

“So I’m guessing we’re allies” I smirked

“Always was to smart” Dan grinned

“Thanks now I want a find a base a place to rest” I said before grabbing his hand and walking away towards

“Demanding” Dan huffed

“Or I could just kill you know” I threatened half heartily

“Alright camp it is” Dan laughed

“You better yah” I smiled

I sat up yawning and hungry.

“Shush” Dan whispered he was standing very still on the tree branch next to mine.

I looked down to see what was going on, not far of a group of careers walking through the woods.

I carefully untied myself from the branch and drew a knife from inside my jacket.

I examined it carefully; it was curved uprights almost like a hook and was sharpened to extreme.

I smiled as one of them Sparkle the girl from district one walked underneath me. Daniel shot me a warning look clearly saying ‘don’t drop the knife’

I pouted but put the knife back into my jacket. Dan swung quietly up onto the branch above me hidden completely from view, I toke a sharp breath. Sparkles looked up brushing her white-blonde hair out of her sliver-green eyes.

“Sparkles” The boy from district 1 frowned

I had to bit my bottom lip to stop myself from laughing at how ridiculous he sounded saying sparkles in such serious tone.

Sparkles was still looking up at the tree, her eyes found mine and we locked on each other, oh crap.

“Sparkles did you see something?” The boy asked

“I thought I heard something its nothing” Sparkles said still looking at me

I frowned was she lying about where I was.
