The 110th Hunger Games

Circles

Exhausted, I take a breather back inside the tent. After a couple of minute so the hovercraft comes and takes 11s girl away to re dress her and send her back to district 11. After two hours I realize that my fellow pack mates haven't returned. I decide to go and look for them until:
BOOM!!
A cannon has just gone off and I have no idea who it belong too. I guess I'll know tonight. Two people have died one was by my hand.
BOOM!!
Make that three. When twilight falls my career mates come back all exhausted and covered in dirt. From what I can tell Glint has been complaining the whole time.

"UGHHH I HAVE LEAVES IN MY HAIR. MY STYLIST IS GOING TO KILL ME!!"

"Has she been complaining this whole time?" I giggle

"Don't even mention it" says Adam
I laugh "So I heard two cannon shots while you guys were out, do you know who died?"

"Well Glint saw the girl from 10 making a run for the cornucopia for more supplies but the girl from 7 came out of nowhere threw her chakram into her chest which split her in two and made off with three backpacks" says Jane

"Ugh, atleast thats one more tribute gone, who was the other one?"

"The boy from 13, when we lost the girls we found the boy from 13 resting under a tree, Breck snapped his neck" says Glint

I shudder at the thought of that.

"We did hear a third cannon though, know anything about that?" Asked Breck

"I think you might be talking about when I killed the girl from 11 after you guys went and chased after the other three girls" I say
"Nice" says Breck rolling his eyes
"Yeah she put up a fight but I got her"

Before it got dark we decided to circle the area maybe find a tribute and head back to the cornucopia.

"Ok so how bout we team up in districts so Glint and I will team up and we will meet back up at the cornucopia?" Adam suggests

"Yeah sounds good" agrees Alyx

We all say goodbye for now, split our supplies evenly and separate.

After walking for about half an hour Alyx starts to question me about some stuff.

"So, what do you think the others are talking about?"
"Probably how to kill us when it comes down the the six of us" I say seriously
"Yeah your probably right, maybe we should break from the group when the numbers get low"

I stare him up and down, studying his body language and trying to get inside his head.
Is he planning to kill me?

I immediately erase that thought, because if he did kill me and it came down to him and Districts 1 and 2 would surely kill him first.

That's when the arrow pierces his leg.

"AHHH CRAP!" He yelps.
We both barely take cover behind a tree when another arrow takes flight. I try to take a look at who it is which results an arrow flying at me, I barely dodge it as it lodges into a tree.

"Has the girls from 5,7 and 13 come back to finish us off?" Asks Alyx

"Probably, I don't think 7 or 13 are here though"

"Why not?" He asks
"Because no smoke bombs or chakrams have come this way yet"

"Oh that's good I guess"

At this point I'm not even listening to what he is saying, I'm more worried about the arrows that hunger for my flesh. As I dodge about 3 more I finally spot a a girl bow in hand running behind tree to tree trying to get a better vantage point.

I pull out one of my knives...and when I see the girl I toss my knife... I was aiming for her head but she's too quick and the knife pins her hood of her jacket to a tree. She drops her bow to try and free herself so I think it's my chance to finish her off, and I spring too her leaving Alyx behind. But I'm too late the only thing that's left of the girl is a piece of fabric that she ripped off to get away, that's when I realize that my knife isn't there.....

Next thing I know a curved knife misses me by inches and ricochets off a near by rock. I turn around to see no one there, just the woods. I pick up the fabric and stuff it into my pocket and cautiously walk back to Alyx jerking my head at every sound and movement. Once I reach him he smiles.

"Did you get her?"
"If I did you would've heard a cannon by now"
"Oh how dumb am I" he says giggling

I lean down and put his arm around my shoulder and help him off the ground.
He's lighter than I expected. Once my dad told me that in the third quarter quell, two famous victors from our district were apart of the second rebellion. Finnick Odair and Mags Flannagen, two of the most respected victors in all of Panem. Finnick died during the second rebellion, poor Annie, went half insane and they had to use hypnosis on her to forget all about him.

I snap back into reality and find myself catching a nearly passed out Alyx.
"Jesus, are you okay?"
"Yeah yeah fine" saying each word with such effort.
"We should start to hurry" I say "the others will be waiting for us back at the cornucopia by now and we don't want to be out here when night falls, we don't want that girl from 5 to visit us again"

"Yeah ok" says Alyx "I can see the golden horn now"

I look up to see the beautiful golden horned cornucopia glistening in the falling sun. I smile when I see the rest of my teammates all sitting around a fire and organizing the supplies.

"How was the trip" Adam yells cupping his hands around his mouth.

"Could've been better, how was yours?" I fire back losing my breath
"Yeah it was very adventurous" he says looking at Glint who is tending too a fire. When we make it back to the cornucopia Jane starts tending to Alyxs wound, it sounds like she's losing her voice over it because she constantly keeps telling him to stay still.

I get up and sit next to the rest of my pack mates by the fire.

After what seems like hours of awkward silence I finally get out "You know Alyx and I were attacked while making our way back here".
"Really?!" Exclaims Breck "Do you know who it was?"
"Can't be certain but we think it was the girl from District Five" I say as I catch Glint staring intensely at Adam.

"Something wrong" Jane asks gripping onto one of her knives. "No, no problem" says Glint uncertainly.

Later that night I think about Frostine and my dad watching me try to survive in the games, soo far it's been pretty good and in total eleven people have died, speaking of which there were three faces in the sky tonight: The first person was the girl from ten, followed by the girl from eleven and finally the boy from thirteen. The gamemakers are not happy, soon they'll spice up the action for another bloodbath. After the anthem finished we all set out our sleeping bags and just laid inside the cornucopia in total silence. I stare at the ceiling as the night air brushes my face, sleep comes to easy, my eyes flutter shut and I'm off into the dreamworld.....
