Hey there! I am going to try and update much more often now! I just couldn't really think of anything for the story and ended up not writing anything at all. But here you go! The next chapter!
This time when I yell at the screen no one dares to say anything, which is a smart move, because I would knock them out.
"Come on Annie! PLEASE! Wake up!" I scream. I notice a few looks of pity from others around me.
Annie starts to move a little, and I freeze. The District 7 tribute, apparently named Eve, is just a few yards away now. But then the camera switches to Derek, hidden behind a tree. As soon as she is in reach, he screams out for Annie to wake up.
She wakes up instantly to see the fight before her eyes. Derek takes a knife and stabs it into Eve's thigh; she screams in pain and falls. While she is down, Derek instructs Annie to get ready to leave. She starts to pack up, and Derek helps. But they can't see what I do.
Eve's wound is not fatal, and she rips the knife out of her leg, and winces but doesn't make a sound. She gets back up and heads for Derek. Annie sees her approaching, and screams out. But when Derek turns around, Eve's axe is swung at his neck. Annie watches in horror as his head falls off and makes a thumping noise on the ground. A cannon.
Eve runs away threw the trees.
Annie however does not follow. She falls to the ground with a pained look on her face. She curls into a ball and cries with the occasional scream. Watching her in pain hurts me too. I start crying silently as well.
Derek has done so much for Annie, so much for me. I will never be able to thank this man.
The hovercraft collects his body and Annie crawls over to a tree and leans against it. She covers her ears and screams more. I punch the table.
"What's happening to her?" I yell. I look over at Mags to see her just shake her head, this can't be good. I run up to the wall and send my hand flying threw, people turn to watch as I curse and punch the wall. When I think my anger is all out I go and check on Annie.
She has stopped screaming but is now mumbling something I don't understand. But apparently she is hearing things in her head.
"I'm sorry." Johanna says, from behind me.
"Please just leave me alone." I say.
I still have so much hope for Annie. She just needs to hang on a little longer; I am surprised nobody has been able to find her. It has been almost two days now since Derek's brutal death.
She is still in the same place, in the same position. She hasn't moved at all. I have sent a few parachutes but she doesn't touch them. She won't eat, or drink anything. And I have no idea what to do. I have had a few doctors come in and tell me there theories. Paralyzed, shock, just plain insanity. But I know better. She has a bad case of Hunger Games Syndrome.
She isn't there anymore, I can't find her. Not mentally that is. She is there physically, but I see the loss in her eyes. Life goes by...
I try to be positive, crack jokes and all, but the other mentors won't buy it.
I start to sing to myself. Womanizer, woman-womanizer, you're a womanizer, oh, womanizer oh, you're a womanizer baby...
Then I am smacked across the head.
"Hey!" I say.
"Hey!" The district 5 man mocks me, "Shut up!"
I sigh and look at Annie again. Just a little while longer.
REVIEW PLEASE!
