Katniss's POV

"Aw, stink!" I thought. I was just PRACTICING shooting my arrow, and it flew a kilometer away at the least. And there are like 7 tributes left besides Peeta and myself. There is no WAY I can survive with only TWO ARROWS!

I think I should tell Peeta to go get it for me. But, however, knowing him, he would go get it and then throw it twice as far away and tell me to go get it. And after all, he is stronger than me. He has more energy than me. All I care about at the moment is that arrow that is now so far away from me and going home to Prim and Mother. And I hate to say I miss Buttercup, too.

Lost in my thoughts, I feel a tap on my shoulder. I am 99.9% sure it is Peeta, wanting to tell me that he's hungry. So, I don't turn around. I just want to close my eyes, wait five seconds, and then be home, on my bed, with Prim by my side. But, unfortunately, the Capitol won't allow that. So I close my eyes and wait for the annoying tap on my shoulder to go away, but it doesn't.

Extremely annoyed, I practically yell, "Peeta, this better be good!" I turn around, and I think I fainted. For the few seconds I looked at her, I saw a tiny, dark-skinned, friendly face staring at me. It was my ally. But not just any ally. It was Rue.

How was it? It was my first chapter of my first story and I really want to make this fanfic good. Please Review or PM me some ideas! Thanx!
