I've been in the arena for a few days now, I'm quite well prepared, I have some food and some water,some rope and some gloves all from the backpack I picked up when the cannon fired. Footsteps? Where were they coming from? Every second getting louder, faster, closer. Before I knew it I was up the tree and out of the way of danger. But I still don't know who it was or what they were running from.
"The airs better up here, why don't you come up."
The voice is familiar but I can't remember who it is.
"Think I will."
Hearing this makes me worried but also helps me to place where they are. I see her, The girl on fire, Katniss and the tracker jacker nest. Not five metres above her head are one of the most deadly hybrids in the game. But I have a plan, a plan to help her and me. I must wait till nightfall to act.I signal to her, she must see because she begins to climb even higher up the tree. Within seconds of sawing.
SNAP
Screams and footsteps fill the air getting quieter as they run further away from this place. All but one. Glimmer at the bottom of the tree, her lifeless body lay on the floor, swollen beyond recognition. The only way i am sure it is her is her almost bleached blond hair.That's when I see Katniss fall.
Before the quiet thump of her hitting the hard forest ground scattering leaves everywhere.
