It is day 10 in the arena. I'm sure the Capitol got their taste of the games yesterday when Marvel, Noah and Rue died. I am really upset. I didn't sleep at all last night so I was on watch last night. It's about 12:30 in the afternoon when Cato finally awakes. I get lunch ready for us. Cato and I eat lunch when Claudius Templesmith's voice booms threw the arena. 

"Attention tributes, Attention! There has been a slight rule change," He says.

I think to myself 'what kind of rules are there in the arena?'

"The regulations for one victor has been revoked. From now on there can be two victors if both originate from the same district. Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor." 

I run up to Cato and hug him, "We can both go home now!" I say.

He smiles and hugs me tighter. I can be with Cato. This gave me more hope to get out of the games and this motivates me even more. I can't believe it. Cato and I can both go home! I am so happy. The Capitol might be bored today but Cato and I will go hunting tomorrow. Right now I'm tired. 

* A few hours pass *


Cato and I eat dinner. We are having some rabbit legs. The anthem plays a no tribute is the sky. The Capitol is getting bored. I wouldn't be surprised if they throw in some sort of twist like a feast or something. It has to be soon though, the Capitol would be getting bored. 

I fall asleep on Cato's chest. Today was a pretty boring day.
