The moring Fraeah woke up, was the last time she would.

Day 5.

That day, she was sitting in her tree and cannon. She didn't know who it was for but it gave her a better chance of going home.

Ten more, I might just make it.

Fraeah climed higher into her tree and saw someone flash through the trees in the short distance. Samuel? She hoped. Because hope was all she could do.

She got down from the tree, aware of the danger she could face and started to leave her site.

She made it quite a way then, shit, she saw the silhouette but not the face.

They seemed to be carrying a bow, and if they had a bow they'd of had arrows.

Fraeah snuck from bush to bush, trying not to hear and not wanting to hear anyone else.

As she skidded through the bush, she tripped over a root and made a slight "oof" noise. She was heard.

The boy from who knows what district saw and started towards her with his bow, she sped off, her tangled red ponytail flying behing her.

He pulled an arrow from the quiver and readied it in the bow, the both of them still running and managed to shoot her straight in the back.

Fraeah slowed down and collapsed on her face. The boy turned her over and stabbed her in the chest, she stopped breathing and her connon sounded.

~Back in Five~

"FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! FUCK!"

That was all Finch could hear, she sat up in Ferris and Feebie's room covering their ears and holding them from the screams downstairs. All three were crying.

Firen kicked and punched at the patched up burgundy sofa, furious at his sister's death.

Finch had the idea of what happened. So she decided to try to comfort her siblings and easily tell them the news.

Firen flopped on the couch sobbing, Firen, Fraeah, Finch, Ferris and Feebie were all very close, none of them thought something like this would ever happen.

The rest of the week came and so did a victor, Samuel Marcez.

The victory tour and speaches came. Samuel apologized to Fraeah's family and thanked Fraeah herseld for her sacrifice and bravery.

Firen got himself back together and opened the shop again, Finch, still 12, helped there too and Feebie and Ferris were still too young.

They just tried not to think there were more reapings yet to come.
