I hope you enjoyed the last chapter now that the games have started. I'm starting to update more which is good. Well keep an eye out for more chapters. If I keep getting reviews I will continue the story after the games!

I was walking back to camp with Marvel when I heard the cannon sound. Bye,Bye, Katniss, I thought and I looked around just in time to see her body slump to the ground. I couldn't help but smirk. But killers are never satisfied, that is why when I saw Thresh I got excited for my next kill. My hand gripped my sword that was attatched to my belt. Now I was about twenty feet away. Would this guy EVER turn around? I wondered what kind of weapons he had in store since he didn't come to the cornucopia. Now I was ten feet away. He turned around.
"So we meet," I said cockily, "And now we fight!" I sprinted towards him and slashed his arm. Blood gushed out from it literally spraying me. It's like a shower, I thought. Except I wasn't getting any cleaner.
"Why did you kill that girl?" He asked in pain. "She never tried to harm you." He was almost crying.
"But she did harm something meaningful to me," I told him straight to his face.
"What was it?" He asked. One more slash of my sword and he would be dead.
"My chance of being the victor of the games." I whispered to him. Now I stepped back and thrust my sword through his chest leaving a fist-size hole. Not just one cannon sounded, but two. Then another one. After that all was silent. Clove, Marvel, Glimmer, and Peeta were still alive along with me of course. The sky darkened and I was the one to start the fire tonight. We all drank water and ate dried fruit and meat while the anthem started. In the sky I saw Rue, Katniss, Thresh, and both from District Six. I thought about who was left. All that was left was my allies, the male from District Four, the female from District Five, Foxface, and the boy from District Ten. It really wasn't a lot. I thought about the capitol people interviewing my parents and my family. I would see them again, I thought. My family would be so proud to have a victor from the games.
It was easy to fall asleep at night, since I knew that I would be victor in the games. I woke up early and found Clove on guard. We stood by each other.
"I wish we could win the games together." I said.
"Like that will happen." She answered.
Just then we heard the announcer's voice in the sky.
"Now that we have two districts that want to win the games together," He bellowed, "I would like to announce that this year and this year only TWO tributes from the same district have the ability to be victors." and that was when the real fun started. I thought about the only couples left: Glimmer and Marvel. As I was thinking about that Glimmer, Marvel, and Peeta walked out. They heard the announcement too. Peeta had a knife in his hands and was about to attack me when we heard the voice again,
"Now we need everybody by the cornucopia," he said, "For the most final bloodbath. Good Lu-uck, fellow tributes." At that moment everyone was by the cornucopia. We were in a circle formation. Clove and I, Glimmer and Marvel, Foxface holding three berries that I could tell she was about to eat, the boy from District Four, the girl from District Five, the pair from District Six, and the boy from District Ten with the crippled leg. We all faced each other and Clove and I faced each other and we started to attack. But before we attacked Foxface shoved one berry into her mouth, swallowed, then slumped to the ground when the cannon sounded. For the next hour everyone was in combat. I started with Peeta. He had a knife, and I dodged his slashes and I got a slash at his shoulder, but he never got me. At last I swung my sword and slashed through his clothes and skin. He started bleeding to death. I walked away and started on the cripple boy from District Ten. He was surprisingly smart. He attempted to use his cane to fight me. The only thing that stopped him was not being able to move freely. I moved in closer, ducking to get away from his cane weapon. I swung my sword to try to slice his cane in half. It is harder than it sounds. He swung his arm so fast and hopped to move. At last I took a swing that chopped his hand off. No blood was circulating so no blood came out. For one moment his chest was in my field of stabbing. I didn't take any chances, so I thrust my sword all the way through his now limp body. When I took a look at who to fight next, all that was left was Clove and Glimmer with Marvel. Clove stepped close to me and we faced Glimmer and Marvel. Before us a hole appeared in the ground, next muttations made in District Six crawled through. They looked like giant wolves, but had human features. They lunged at us. Claws that were five inches long scraped the ground to come closer to us. Before I could blink two times one that looked like Katniss with stone gray eyes raked at my shoulder. Five slashes were produced in my pale skin. THAT WAS IT! I already killed that bitch and now she's back. I must have slashed at the wolf over ten times but it was still alive. Lastly I grabbed ahold of another sword on the ground, got a running start, and jumped high and nearly chopped its head off, and just like that it vanished in a puff of dust. Then, all the muttations were crawling back into the hole were they came from. Glimmer and Marvel were dead, mauled by the mutts. This only means one thing: CLOVE AND I HAD WON!
But there's always a catch with the capitol. Just then the voice of the capitol announcer came on again.
"You didn't think we would let two tributes win, would we?"
Clove and I didn't know what to do. Then I had an idea. I picked up the two berries that Foxface dropped. We had the berries just inches from our mouths.
"DON'T KILL YOURSELVES BECAUSE CLOVE AND CATO, YOU TWO ARE THE VICTORS OF THE 74th HUNGER GAMES!"
If more people review, then I will add more. Thanks for reading! I enjoyed writing for this. Don't fear more chapters are on their way. :D
