The Hunger Games: Fallen Heart

Filler Chapter

We walked back to camp in pain, and dehydrated. When we arrived the boy got up ready with his spear. "Relax its us, you can put your spear down now" I heard myself say without thinking. "Where is Glimmer and Peeta?" the boy asked in his 14 year old voice. "They..." I started but was cut off.

"Did you hear the cannon?" Cato asked him. "What one? There were a few." the boy responded. "About a hour ago?" cato said, and the boy nodded yes. "That was Glimmer's, and Lover Boy got cut pretty bad..." He said holding up his knife "He wont last long out there.

I could tell the boy wanted to ask more questions but was affraid to, so he just said "Oh, okay." and sat back down. Once Cato and Marvel left to get wood for the fire, I turned to the boy and said "Dont let him intimidate you. Once you get to know him, he pretty cool" The boy nodded and went back to whatever he was doing, carving something, like Peeta did.

"Where did you learn how to do that?" I blurted out without thinking. "Lover Boy or whatever his name is, Peter or somrthing like that..."

"Peeta... his names Peeta" I said cutting him off "Sorry, go on."

"Well... he taught me when you guys were sleeping about an hour before he made food. He was really nice ya know" he said looking up at me from his hunched over position. All I could mange to say was "Yeah... I know"

The boys came just after I said that with stacks of wood almost taller than me, I mean I am NOT TALL, but still!

We all sat by the fire since it was getting dark already. I have no clue why! It was only like 3, if anything! It was the game makers, they were trying to hurry this thing up. Yeah it was them. After about two hours we all looked up to the skys as the panem anthem played. the capital seal appeard followed by a couple af faces, Glimmers included, and then the seal was there and gone within seconds.

"We better get sleep before tomorrow. I think that its gonna be the last day, and if its not the gamemakers will try their dambed hardest to make it the last day" Cato said. Marvel answered by saying "I think we should set traps first. Ya know it will help with the games." "Ill stay with him..." I say looking at the boy who looked half dead due to being tired, "Ill let him sleep a little bit."

We all agreed, Marvel and Cato went off into the woods to set some traps. Once they were gone, I looked at him and said, "You can sleep now. Ya know?" He looked up at me and smiled weakly "Thanks". He stood and went into the tent, and no more than 5 minutes later he was asleep.
