Iggy's POV:

I snapped open my wings and launched myself straight up into the air. And for those of you with WTH expressions on, yes I did say wings.

Hovering for a moment, I gazed down on their shocked faces. I couldn't just leave Prim there...but I had to. The Capitol's people would pick her up soon.

Seconds after that thought crossed my mind, a canon sounded. Right about now everyone was supposed to clear out so they could get the body.

With one more wistful look at Prim, I soared into the open air.

Max's POV:

After a few minutes of silence, Fang spoke. "What now?"

I thought a moment before I answered;" Do you think they have barriers around the sky too?"

Now he was thoughtful. A couple seconds passed before he replied with," Most likely. They might have suspected someone trying to get out of the arena like Katniss and Peeta and upped the security system."

I nodded," And if they didn't we probably just ruined it and gave them the idea."

He smiled wryly, "Most likely."

A few days passed this way. It was almost peaceful; but I knew the game-makers wouldn't leave it that way for long. We set out again, flying around the desert part in an oval. Soon we would head back to the forest.

I'm starting to get hungry….

I wish I had some of my mom's homemade cookies right now. Before she…passed away she would always find some way to make us cookies; no matter how scarce things were.

"Fang?"

"Yeah."

"I'm starving."

He groaned," You would be…"

Ignoring this I replied, "Fang let me rephrase that, I'M STARVING!"

"Fine, fine. See if the backpacks have anything." He was quickly growing more irritated by the second.

Hehe

Twisting around to get a backpack open while flying over a desert isn't exactly the smartest idea.

You might end up so tangled up that your best friend who is usually emotionless or just plain annoying is laughing so hard that he might accidently run into an oncoming object.

That just so happens to be alive.

"WHAT THE-"Fang managed to get out before being smothered by a wing.

That wasn't his.

I am officially freaked out now.

Abruptly another voice came through," WHAT THE HECK! AM I FREAKIN HALLUCINATING!"

I snapped out of my daze long enough to get the backpack back on my shoulders and aim a kick at the white-blonde head of hair that appeared.

"OW!" yelped Blondie as I grabbed Fang by his arm and yanked him back towards me.

Blondie glanced at us warily before attempting to fly away.

Fang and I exchanged a look before each grabbing an arm and dragging him through mid-air back to the forest.

Iggy's POV:

I struggled desperately against the district 9 people but they were tough.

Eventually I went limp and let them pull me across the sky and back down into the forest.

This day sucks.

We all landed in a clearing of some sort, with water.

I launched myself forward toward it and paused at the edge. I wanted so badly to gulp down the whole pool. I had lived without water for at least two days.

But I remembered what Katniss had done to rehydrate herself and began taking small sips.

Pausing to see if I could keep it down I heard the District 9 people discussing something quietly together.

Probably me

"But I might as well drink while I can." I thought to myself and proceeded with my little routine.

Sip, pause, sip, pause, sip, pause…

After a while I felt I had enough water in my system to look around.

Standing cautiously I turned to where they were both standing, still talking about me.

I crept closer and paused to hear what they were saying.

"-would be easier." The girl finished.

The dark one rolled his eyes in a manner that showed he'd dealt with this before and answered," Fine Max, go ahead. He's listening to us now anyway."

I froze as both of them turned toward me."

"Well," the girl began," Care to tell us who you are and why the heck you tackled us in mid-air? And HOW DID YOU GET WINGS LIKE US?"

I admit it; I shook under this girl's gaze. She was tough. Might as well answer her…Prim is gone…I don't have anything to lose really.

"I'm uh, Iggy and-"

A/N: I know, cliffy. Was it any good at all? Should I go die in a hole because of sucky writing? Review! Tell me if it sucked or if you like it! CC me!

And yes, I am aware that I pretty much just requested flames. -.- But I want to know what you think! Love it, hate it? TELL ME! OR THE COOKIE MONSTER WILL EAT YOU! Review and you get hugs! And cookies! And cake! And…pie! RNR
