Hunger Games- The Lovers Of District 2 (BoyxBoy)

Chapter 13: Sprint Until The End

>Nate’s POV<

            This is the day. The day our plan will be executed. I couldn’t wait to smell home. I got up, and got myself ready. This was sure going to be a fierce battle. How on earth did he survive against all those dogs? I then ate some of the leftover food yesterday, and strapped my backpack onto my body.

            I felt Cato’s arms wrap around me and his head rest on my shoulder. “You ready?” He asks, now feeling up and down my body. I feel myself heat up and reply, “Stop Cato. Not now until we win. Okay?” He laughs and removes his hands from me. He straps his backpack on and then sets his gun to fire. “Ready for this?” Cato asked looking straight in my eyes.

I nodded and reply, “Whenever you are ready Cato. Let’s finish this.” He smiled and he exited the waterfall cave. I then followed after. The some water falling on my face was just refreshing. But what was weird is when I looked out, the river was frozen solid, and snow was falling from the sky. It kind of gets cold. “Let’s go.” Cato said, strapping the gun on his back and started sprinting. I soon chased after him. This is it.

(An Hour Later)

            Cato and I finally reached the Cornucopia, and it was getting pretty late. I expected Thresh to be waiting to kill the both of us or waiting for his own death. I’m slowly chewing on my last food bar, hoping to have energy to face the intimidating Thresh.

(Another Hour Later)

>Cato’s POV<

            Nate and I waited, sitting by the Cornucopia, hoping to encounter Thresh. It was already getting dark. Then I hear loud barking and a  yell. In the distance, Thresh appears, sprinting at us. Nate and I look past him, seeing large demon hounds. Nate and I try to desperately climb it. I reach the top of it, but Nate struggles to get up. Thresh easily climbs up, and lays down on his back, trying to catch his breath.

            One of the demon hounds grab Nate’s leg with his mouth and starts to pull. Nate shrieks in horror. I shoot a couple of bullets at the hound, and it lets go and staggers back. I grab Nate’s arm quickly and pull him up. The rest of the large demon hounds are in view, and start to circle the Cornucopia.

            Then I look closely at one of the demon hounds. It had shiny, and long blonde hair and blue eyes. It’s Glimmer!! Then there one with long brown hair and blue eyes. It’s Katniss!! Damn the Capitol people. How dare they change dead tributes into mutant demon hounds. Then I heard a voice scream, “Cato!!” I turn around to see Thresh, holding Nate in a very tight headlock. I then pulled out Nate’s bow and arrow and aimed it right at Thresh.

            “If you hit me with that arrow, this boy will come with me too.” Thresh said. Then I looked at Nate, who marked and ‘X’ right on his hand. I nodded and aimed it right to Thresh’s hand. I released the arrow, and it was a direct hit!! Thresh then yelled in pain, and flinch backwards. Nate then turned around, and pushed Thresh directly off of the Cornucopia.

            The demon hounds dogs went into attack, and Thresh did his best to fend them off. Nate then took the bow and arrow from me, and a then aimed right at Thresh. The bow cut through the wind, and hit Thresh straight in the chest, making him fall to the ground. Te hounds then stopped and walked away.

            Then President Snow’s voice then rang though the area saying, “Hello fellow tributes. Due to the recent rule change, it has now been revoked.” Damn I knew this was going to happen. Luckily Nate and I planned before hand if this were to happen. Nate and I pulled out our knives and put it against out necks. “WHAT DO YOU TIHKN YOU’RE DOING?!?!” President Snow’s voice boomed.
