Amy screamed, but the boy ignored it and scooped us both up, running with us until we reached the stream.
"Listen, I will need allies to win." he announces. "I'm Cameron. Hi, Amy, Coal Girl. What's your actual name?"
I gulp.
"Bella Rodriguez, District 12." I nod to Amy. "Amy Lancere, District 9."
Cameron grins.
"So, allies?" he puts out his hand.
I hesitate, before shaking it.
"But no harm will come to one of our allies teammates from any of us, clear?"
"Clear."
Suddenly, Zelia breaks through the trees, trailed by Arnold, and both tributes from District 2.
"Ash, Jason, get Cameron." Zelia orders. "I'll get Bella and Amy."
I shove Amy away, and she climbs up a tree, at the top in seconds of swift movements.
Zelia grins at me, and leaps forward, dagger raised. I raise mine to counter-attack, and she stumbles in surprise. I use that to my advantage and stick my dagger under her arm.
She yowls, sounding similar to a wounded animal.
Jason runs forward and drags her into the trees, but Ash is climbing a tree in pursuit of Cameron.
"Jason?" she calls.
Then, she notices that he left and leaps off of the branch that she is on.
"AH!" she yells, clutching her leg.
I run forward and roll her over, noticing the blood spouting from her knee. She had landed on Zelia's dagger when she dropped it. I put my hand over the wound, trying to hold the blood in.
"Jason." she whispers weakly as he runs back towards us.
Ash's eyes flutter shut, and the cannon blows.
"ASH! NO!"
