10..9..8

I don't see any trident!

7..6..5

There is a bag that I think I can reach.

4..3..2

Oh, shit this is happening!

1!

I run towards the bag that I spotted. I manage to grab it before anyone reaches me. I take off running through the forest and leave the bloodbath.

I run as far as my legs will take me. To my luck they ran me to a small pond. I sit down by a tree and start looking through my bag to see what I got.

Two small pocket knives, an empty water bottle, a bag of pretzels, and some matches. I take my water bottle and get some water from the pond.

Before I begin to drink it I realize that I can't. I don't have anything to purify this with.

"Dammit," I say to myself. I keep the water in the bottle and put the lid on. As I walk through the woods, cannons begin to fire. I counted to at least ten.

I climb up into a tree because I don't feel like walking any further. No one runs passed the tree for the rest of the day, other than a few rabbits and squirrels.

I ponder on whether it is a good idea to take a nap or not. I am going to go with it's not.

I look in my bag to see if there is anything that I missed. I find a pair of gloves with the fingers cut out in the bottom of the bag.

"Finnick!" a voice shouts from the bottom of the tree.

I almost fall out of the tree and then I see that it is Carolina.

"You're still alive?" I say surprised.

"I'm standing here talking to you aren't I?"

I laugh and jump down from the tree. "Umm your forehead is bleeding."

Carolina lifts up her hand and feels her forehead. "Do you have medicine or something to fix it?"

"Nope. How did you get cut?"

She starts to laugh, "funny story actually. I was walking with Macey when she decided to try and kill me."

"The alliance was a scam?"

"Yeah, pretty much."

We walk and gather supplies to make camp. Night falls before we can finish setting up our base. The Capitol anthem starts to play and the words "The Fallen" appear in the sky.

The girl from District 1, both from District 3, both from 5, the boy from 7, the boy from 9, both from 10, and the girl from 12.

"The girl from District 1 died! How?" I ask.

"She was threw a knife at the girl from 10 and just as she threw it the boy from 10 strangled her to death and then the boy from 1 avenged in his partner's death."

We continue to set up most of our camp. I climb back up in my tree and fall asleep. As I sleep I hear a beeping noise. A sponsor gift is coming towards me.

I open it and see a bottle filled with stuff to purify water. I jump down from my tree and take my bag to the pond, leaving Carolina behind.

I pour some new water in my bottle and add the drops of purifier into the bottle. I wait for a few minutes before I drink the water.

I put my drops in the backpack and decide to save them, I will probably need them again. I walk back to our base and I start to hear voices.

My first response is to climb up a tree, which I do.

"He is still alive," the boy from 1 says.

It is the Careers and I am pretty sure they are talking about me.

"Well when we find him I want to kill him," the girl from 2 says.

The Careers keep walking on their own little merry way. I need to find a weapon and soon! I look around for things that I could use to make a weapon out of.

There are some trees a few feet in front of me that are covered with vines. I get out one of my pocket knives and start to cut down some vines.

It is still dark and kind of hard to see, but I try to tie the vines together to make a net. By the time the sun rises I successfully made one net.

I take my backpack and net and go back to the base. When I get there I see that Carolina left. I am not going to try to search for her, I need to worry about myself.

I decide to go search for more supplies to make a weapon with when another sponsor gift comes to me. This time it is some seaweed bread from home.

I take a tiny piece and eat it. I try and save all the food and water I have to last me through the games.

As I eat the bread it reminds me of my sister. I wonder what she is doing right now.

When I finish my bread I put it back in my bag and continue to just wonder around the woods. A cannon goes off and the hovercraft comes to take the body. From what I can tell it was a darker skinned girl, probably the girl from District 11.

I end up walking towards the tree line between the forest and the Cornucopia. Somehow Carolina ended up behind me.

"Where have you been?"

I decide to not tell her about the water purifiers I had. "I found some vines and made this net."

"Nice, I just got back from killing someone."

"The girl from 11?"

She nods her head yes. "Have you seen Macey?"

"I haven't seen anyone all morning," I tell her.

I feel like she is keeping something from me. Maybe her and Macey are still in the alliance and they are secretly planning to kill me?

I grab my bag and walk back into the woods. The sky goes from a beautiful sky blue to a dark gray.

"It must be getting to rain," Carolina says.

"Maybe. Should we go back to the base?" I ask.

"I think we are fine here."

We sit down beside the trees and sit for a moment. The clouds turn into rain clouds. I feel a small feeling of pain on my arm, "Oww. What was that?"

"Maybe it was just a mosquito," Carolina says.

The pain keeps getting stronger as the rain keeps pouring down harder and harder. I hold my hand out and see that my whole arm is covered in boils.

"The rain! It's toxic!" I shout.

I grab my net and bag and make a dash outside the forest hoping that it will not be raining there. I was wrong.

"We have to go to the Cornucopia," Carolina says.

I try and run, but I am getting weaker and so is Carolina. I make it to the Cornucopia and there are no Careers in sight.

"Carolina we made it," I say expecting to see her behind me. "Carolina?"

I look outside and see her body lying on the ground. I dig through my bag to find my gloves and slip them on.

I rush outside over to where she is lying. "Carolina are you alright? Carolina?" the cannon goes off.

As soon as her cannon fires the rain stops. I take her backpack and gather her supplies and take them back to the Cornucopia.

I sort through her things. She had a bag of jerky, a small knife, and some wire. I can hear the hovercraft pick up her body and take it away from the arena.

District 4 is probably going to have the moment of silence right about now. Whenever a tribute from 4 dies we remain silent for a few minutes to honor that person's gratitude and contribution to the games.

I feel kind of bad for her because she couldn't win for her friend. But like many people have said before…

Only one person comes out alive.
