Chapter one

KATNISS POV

My feet ache at each step I take on the leaf covered ground, occassionally stopping for air.

Plant's around me lean into the forest's path, dew resting in the center of them.

This is best for them, I should go alone. It'll be hard, though, ever since that fateful night when I had that nightmare, no, vision, Peeta's been watching my every move.

But not this time.

I continue running unil I hear a sharp crack behind me, I whip my head around only to see the marsh, bushes and other wildlife.

What was that? A deer or something.

I wince when my feet tell me to take a breack, so I do.

I rest my hand's below my hip's, panting and sweating, I reach for my bag to grab a drink.

My bag?

What? It's not here?

" Dammit! What the h- " I say, then I get cut off by a loud bang, then all of a sudden, my arm start's to viabrate and I fall to the ground from the impact.

That's when I feel it, a sharp stabbing pain rushes up and down my arm, It feel's like being stabbed, then It start's to feel numb.

" Oh my god.." I whisper when I turn and see the golden bullet planted into my numbing arm.

" What.. " Is the only word that manage's to come out of my shaking mouth. Blood trinkle's down In four or five slim stream's, falling of my arm and onto the ground.

" I was wrong, I should have told you, Peeta.. " I sob on my knee's, holding my injured arm from below.

As I cry, blood appear's from my mouth when I cough.

What's happening?

Who the hell shot me?

I hear footstep's as they crunch on the ground.

I force myself to stand, ready to attack, with nothing accept my leg's and feet. The crunching get's closer as a person appear's into view.

We stare at eachother for a moment, then they say,

" Katniss! "
