Nine

Final Day of Freedom.

"Come on Arrinna, today is the day we take you to the arena!" Carmen shakes me awake. I sit up only just remembering this time tomorrow I could be dead. The thought terrifies me but then I remember I have the Careers looking out for me at the Cornucopia. But that doesn't help me relax.

Joshua looks exhausted as he eats his porridge. I decide to eat as much my stomach can hold, I don't know when I can eat food!

"So today's the big day!" Carmen says sipping some hot chocolate.

"Yeah..." says Joshua sleepily he must have been up almost all the night.

"Joshua, you really should have slept!" Carmen says seeing his baggy eyes.

"I don't know how you would feel trying to sleep the night before the day you die!" Joshua shouts storming out the dining room still holding his mug of hot chocolate which he then smashes on the floor!

"I'm going to go give him a piece of my mind!" Carmen says shooting from her seat!

"No, Carmen I'll talk to him, I know how he feels!" I say almost meanly. I storm off towards Joshua's Room.

"I know how you feel!" I say to Joshua as I sit down on his bed.

"No you don't, you aren't one of the smallest tributes, who doesn't have an ally or the Careers to protect them! I'm good as dead!" He shouts. I've never seen him like this before!

"Joshu-" I begin to say but he interrupts.

"GET OUT!" he screams making me jump back, he grabs the vase of flowers and throws them towards me. I dodge it luckily.

I can't bare watching him like this because it reminds me of my Dad.

"Sorry!" I say quickly running from his anger. Forgetting that was the last time I'll speak to him!

As I sit in the hovercraft heading to the launching rooms I can't help looking at Joshua. I breathe deeply knowing I will be killed soon!

I sit between Lissette and Hari, the girl from District 6. As my tracker is placed into my arm with a huge needle!

Just as I'm about to leave the hovercraft Hari grabs my shoulder.

"Good Luck! You will win, I swear!" That is all she says before climbing down the ladder, I follow after her!

Me and Moon sit in the launching rooms waiting to be called to be sent to my doom. I try to drink a lot of water because I might not get water for a eternity but every time I take a sip I feel sick.

Moon sits holding my hand when we hear it!

"30 seconds!" The tanoy says I shake violently. Moon calms me down.

"Arrinna you have to go! You can win! Good Luck!" he says walking me over to the cylinder. As soon as I step on the podium the glass doors snap shut! I get my last look at Moon, a tear in his eye as I slowly begin to rise to my death!

Note from Author: I will no longer be doing the games from Arrinna's point of view! Thanks for 100 views!
