the smell of smoke woke me up and i sniffed before looking around seeing a fire in the distance i rolled my eyes she better put it out if she doesn't want to die. leaning back i relaxed again but then heard i scream from where the fire was followed by a explosion i pressed my back against the tree. i heard laughter coming my way.

"did you see her face" it was Clove as well as the others

"no don't kill me please don't kill me" the joked

"hey where's lover boy" there was a rustle and my heart stopped Peeta "you sure she went this way?" Cato asked Peeta

"yeah that was her snare we found back there" he continued on i felt hot tears run down he was with them how could he.

"are you sure we shouldn't kill him"

"nah he'll lead us to the girl" the laughed then walked off that night i barley slept. the next morning i moved stopping for water and to make some food before sleeping. the next day i was awoken by a rumble i looked around the forest was on fire i undid my rope and ran like hell. there was a fire ball and i ducked before running again. there was another one so i back flipped.

running on i skidded to a stop when there was a fallen burning tree then turn round only for my leg to be hit

"ow you mean bastards" i yelled  then saw another one coming at me i ran off and just kept going till i jumped into a pond  i sighed in relief. but then heard laughter  oh shit it was the careers and Peeta .

"look there she is" i made my way to get out of the pond them behind be deciding who was going to kill me and i started running again but i stopped looking around and saw i tree then began to climb. the found me but i still climbed  i found i was high enough for now the others were shouting at Cato to kill me. he grabbed a branch and it snapped.

"whahoo  nice fall Cato I'm i really that gorgeous you can't resist" i joke i could help it i figure if i was gonna die i wanted to taunt them at some point. i looked down at glimmer who was getting ready to shoot me. she let go and i moved out the way i laughed.

"oh glimmer i thought you were good" she shot me again and missed "obviously not i think it's like this" i got one of my arrows and shot it at her it missed her heart and she screamed i laughed.

"lets just wait her out. i mean she has to come down at some point either that or starve to death" they agreed and set up camp i looked down and him as he looked up and me and winked before giving a faint smile and leaving. does this mean what i hope it means.

i looked at my burn which now the adrenaline had gone hurt like hell so a poured a little water and covered my mouth to stop the screams. the i put my wrist on it ugh i didn't like burns. the day turned into night and i fell asleep but was awoke by a chiming i looked and sow something heading for the tree i stopped and i looked up. seeing it was something for me i climbed up opening it up i saw a note.

'apply graciously and stay alive -H' i smiled ad him and took out the time it was treatment for my let i began to apply it and felt better.

"thank you" i whispered putting it on my bag and going back down then falling asleep. when i awoke i looked at my burn which wasn't as bad as it was. i heard a psst and looked around finally seeing Rue i smiled he pointed to a hive it was tracker jackers. i smirked they told me to cut it i nodded but looked down at the others. seeing Peeta and not wanting him to get hurt i searched for one of my arrow heads and threw it at him he jolted up looking around i clicked my tongue and he looked up. i pointed to my eye then higher his eyes drifted to the hive then back at me.

i winked at him and signalled him to run on my count he nodded getting ready. i went up and began to cut occasionally getting stung but i willed to go on. finally it was ready to break.

"now" i shouted her ran and the branch broke dropping to the floor they screamed and legged it. i made my way down but lost focus and dropped. i groaned standing up and swaying the buggers got me. i saw Glimmer all swelled up and dead she had her bow and arrows i staggered to her and took it from her dead grasp s as well as the arrows.

"Run...run" i looked up three versions of Peeta told me to run but i didn't move. "Lilly run" i moaned he made me look him in the eye.

"baby you gotta run" he whispered

"not...not without y-you"

"I'll be right behind you just go please" i stood up and ran but i was really tired and i saw Ceaser Flikerman telling me of the tracker jacker. i looked around

"Peeta?" i called "Peeta!"  there was no one there "PPPPEEEEEETTTTTAAAA!" i screamed before blacking out.
