I just noticed that I have been forgeting to put disclamers on my chapters SO first and foremost I would like to say I do NOT own The Hunger Games.
Secondly I would like to say that since Cato throws a bit of a tantrum in this chapter there is swearing.
The boom shook the ground and Cato's train of thought. We stormed into the clearing where debris and ash floated through the air after my re activated mines went off.
The boy and girl from one and two respectively stand staring at the hole left by the mines. Cato thundered forwards his feet slamming down on the packed earth. His hands are wrapped in his hair. He leaves a trail of hair and swearing as he gets closer to where our supplies used to reside. I walk quickly behind him. I want to check and make sure that the mines have all been activated before Cato decides to continue his tantrum in a minefield.
Although, if Cato accidentally treaded on a mine and well ... blew up- would it really be a bad thing?
I pick up an assortment of palm sized stones while I walk closer to the cavity in the ground. My feet crunch on pieces of wood and unknown pieces of supplies as I get closer.
I hold my breath as I launch the first stone, willing it not to detonate anything. It thuds on the ground, stirring up dust but nothing more. Cato's rage is still bringing out the worst in him. I look over my shoulder to see he is now attempting to pulverize the earth with his fist. Even from this distance I can see that his hair is sparse in quite a few places.
I continue throwing rocks. When I get to the end of my rocks foot steps start to mix with the thuds of stone.
"All clear," I state, giving them the go ahead to start pilfering through the ashes. Cato storms past me and into the charred space kicking up ashes as he passes. Clove and Marvel decide to be productive and shift through the ashes looking for remnants of our supplies. They have even less success than Cato who seems to be searching violently with his feet.
" There's nothing left." Clove declares, throwing her hands up in the air. There's a rustle of burnt unknowns as Cato whirls towards me.
" You frigging idiot! Why didn't you say it would blow up the food! Did you think you could trick us! You wuss, didn't have the balls to fight us! Thought you could starve us eh?" Cato's rage is coming off him in waves. Marvel and Clove won't come to my aid now they know better than to get in front of Cato when he's this far gone into a tantrum. "Thought you couldn't outlast us? Coming from your toxic -shit wasteland of a District?" His words are so loud they rattle inside my head. "Well you won't be getting too far jackass." he whispers with venom. I spin quickly realizing just how bad a screwed up. He's ready to kill me.
I force my legs to launch me from my spot and sprint away from Cato thundering behind me. I hear him before I feel him. His arms come around my body and wrap around my head. One hand rests on top of my head the other crushes my windpipe. My hands struggle to remove his arm crushing my windpipe. I start gasping; my legs are dangling off the ground. Under my hands I feel Cato's muscles tighten and his arms jerk violently to the side, taking my head with it.
Marvel's next, then Rue ( I didn't want Rue to die!) since I'm going in order.
Untill next time!
