Sorry its taken me so long to write this chapter, i have been super buisy! Please excuse my mistakes for this chapter i went over it briefly and probobly missed alot of mistakes. im trying to get better at correcting :p
We then made our way over to a clump of trees.
"Haha" laughed glimmer "did you see her face? Please no noooo" Glimmer mimicked
"That's a pretty good impression" I said playfully. I turned to lover boy "are you sure fire girl went this way" I asked him
"Positive" he answered "I saw her snares back that way" we looked for fire girl late into the night and most of the next day but no such luck. We headed back to the cornucopia to refill our bags.
I stuffed a sleeping bag, clean water, dried fruit, beef sticks, and a loaf of bread in my backpack. "Let's to the other side of the forest to look for tributes" I said to everyone else. We started towards the forest but I noticed smoke rising from deep inside it, but this wasn't camp fire smoke it was game maker smoke.
"Hey guys, look over there" I yelled pointing towards the forest "the game makers must be sending someone are way"
"Well than let's meet them halfway" said marvel excitedly
"Well if the person got burned, and they probably did than there going to head to water. I think there's a pond in the general area of the smoke. Clove said
smartly. We all agreed that that was a good place to start and headed to the pond that clove was talking about. It only took us about 15 min to get to the
pond, we walked over the rocks and then I spotted her.
"There she is" I yelled out. We all started running towards the fire girl and as messy as she was she quickly saw us running after her and got out of the water. We chased her deep into the forest until she skillfully darted up a tree like a squirrel.
"I'll go after her" I said beginning to climb the tree, I made it halfway to her until I grabbed hold of a week branch it snapped in half and I fell all the way to the hard forest floor. I grunted in pain I had the wind knocked out of me, I tried to ignore it and staggered up.
"I'll do it" said glimmer grabbing an arrow and sheathing it she shot and horribly missed.
"Give me that" I said angrily grabbing her bow and shooting at fire girl, I missed as well.
"Why don't we just wait until she comes down" lover boy said walking in front of us "she has to come down eventually, it's either that or starve" he had a point there.
"Fine" I said annoyed "someone make a campfire.
20 min later we had set up camp and were all lying down around the camp fire. At first I was by myself then glimmer slowly scooted her way towards me. I
would have moved but it seemed like it would be rude. We had a nice dinner of dried fruit, bread, and beef sticks. After about 20 min of just sitting around
the campfire I got bored and started poking the fire with my sword, the tip of it turned a reddish yellow color; I pulled it out and spit on it trying to look cool
in front of clove. Instead glimmer giggled and scooted closer to me. I wanted to scoot away from her and closer to clove but something about her made me
stay. After a while I lied down and glimmer rested her head on my arm; I couldn't pull away for some reason.
I could hear a soft buzzing noise in the distance was that just my imagination or was that…..
"AAAAAA" I screamed as loud as I could, I got up and ran straight for the lake by our supplies. Wasps were stinging me from all sides, the lake came in view
and I gave an extra effort to get there faster, I dived in the water and stayed there until I could no longer breathe. I swam back to the shore and saw cato
and marvel lying on the ground, where is glimmer and lover boy. I started running back to wear the bees are for glimmer, I'm pretty sure I saw lover boy
running next to me but maybe he got caught up and I didn't notice. The wasp area came into view and I saw 3 people still there; glimmer was lying still on
the ground, fire girl was grabbing something out of glimmers hand, and lover boy was trying to pick fire girl up screaming for her to get away from there!
That little traitor he was on fire girl's side all along! I ran right for him sword in hand and slashed the sword deep into his upper thigh; he screamed in pain
but kept shoving fire girl away from him. I looked back and saw glimmer lying on the ground swollen and ugly, I started swaying and the world turned into a
giant green snake circling me. I toppled my way back to camp I was 10 feet from clove and marvel when I collapsed and everything turned black.
I opened my eyes slowly, the world was hazy and my whole body ached. I tried to sit up but someone lowered me back down
"shhhhhh" clove whispered to me "you got stung a lot, just rest easy" I closed my eyes and fell asleep again. When I woke I was propped up under our little shanty by the pyramid, clove and marvel and the boy from 4 were all sitting near me talking and eating.
"You're awake" clove said happily "you were out for nearly 3 days"
I slowly got to my feet and walked over to her "what happened, where is glimmer?" clove looked up at me sadly "glimmer didn't make it" she said softly. I
sat down in a chair by them and ran my fingers through my hair. "wow, well we can't let that stop us from winning this game" I said gathering myself "what
have I missed in the past couple of days?" clove filled me in on everything I missed, she had only received 1 sting herself so she had very minor and short
hallucinations. She and district 4 boys have been taking care of me and marvel, the fire girl escaped and lover boy was still alive but I knew that It wouldn't
be for long.
"So what should we do?" I asked "keep on hunting for tributes?"
"Well first you need to eat some breakfast, then we can go and kill some tributes" she said handing me some dried fruit and bread. I ate every last bit of the
meal then started sharpening my sword.
I hope you liked it! the next chapter should be along in about 3 or 4 days! thanks guys!
