Day seven.
"Yuuri! Wake up old man!"
"Huh? Wha-?" Yuuri wakes up confused and rubs his eyes.
"The flood! The water, it's going down"
"Really? Thank god" Yuuri leans over and sees that the younger boy was right, the water is lowering quickly.
"One problem... How are we going to get down?" Yuuri didn't think about that while he was climbing.
"Easy, just shimmy"
"Just what?"
"Shimmy, we have to do this all the time in District seven"
Lumber yeah of course Yuuri thinks.
"You go first and I'll copy you"
"Okay" Yuri shrugs and starts to shimmy his way down the tree.
"How are you doing that?" Yuuri yells down to him.
"Cling close to the bark and slowly work your way down, it's hard to explain, I do it automatically"
That's not very helpful...
Yuuri secures his backpack and very carefully works his way down, his heart pounding the whole time.
I can see it now, Yuuri Katsuki made it to the final six but then falls to his death climbing down a tree, okay focus.
"Alright, just jump down from there" he can hear Yuri below him but it sounds far away.
"It's too high"
"It's like six feet, nothing"
Yuuri just can't trust his young ally.
"Yuuri jump, it's fine really"
"You better not be messing me around"
"I'm not, you deserve a better death than falling from a tree"
Yuuri laughs and decides to go for it, he lets go and braces for impact.
"Ooff" he grunts as he lands but looses balance and falls to the ground.
"Come on old man" Yuri laughs as the older boy drags himself up.
"I'm not old" he groans and rubs his thighs, a few days without much physically activity has taken its toll on their bodies.
"How do you feel about a quick jog?" Yuuri asks the younger boy.
"Uh... Okay let's go but give me my axe back"
Yuuri opens his bag and gives the blond his axe.
"Check this out" the blond pulls the axe back and throws it into a tree several feet away.
"Wow"
The boy shrugs "You did better with a spear"
Yuuri blushes "It was an accident"
"Then how did you get an eight in training?"
"Oh... well I think it took a lot of luck"
The blond sighs and moves his hands down him face "You're impossible" he mumbles and yanks the axe out of the tree like it was stuck in a pillow and not buried deep in a tree.
The two boys jog in silence before the heat becomes unbearable and they have to stop and take their jackets off.
"This heat!" Yuri groans. "At least the trees are happy"
"Hey, wait a minute" Yuuri has a lightbulb moment "District seven, trees... Can you identify any nut tree or fruit trees?"
Yuri raises an eyebrow "Yeah of course, my last exam was edible trees actually"
"Really?"
"Yeah, lets keep jogging. I'll watch the trees"
"Okay" Yuuri thinks back to his last exam.
'The amount of sparkle to colour ratio in lipstick'
Bit pathetic really compared to what Yuri was learning at only fourteen.
The two allies jog through the forest for what felt like an hour but was probably around twenty minutes or so.
Yuri suddenly halts. "There!" he points and heads through the trees towards a small tree with apples.
"Are you sure they are okay?" the older boy asks cautiously, he has seen far too many of the gamemakers tricks in previous games.
"I'll check" Yuri takes an apple and throws it before slicing it in midair with his axe, he picks it up and inspects the halves
"H-How..." Yuuri is in shock at the boy's competence with the axe.
"Smells okay, looks okay" he takes a bite "Tastes fine, if a little soft" he mumbles with his mouth full.
Yuuri picks up another apple, Yuri is still alive so they appear to be fine.
"Yum"
They pick a few and fill Yuuri's backpack.
No one died today, a quiet day. The boys climb a medium sized pine tree before the sun sets, they climb into the sleeping bag again. The branch is much thinner than the redwood so Yuuri decides to wrap rope around the branch to secure themselves.
"Safety first" the young blond mumbles and falls asleep on Yuuri.
It is going to hurt so much if he is the one who will die. Yuuri cries a little before falling asleep.
