While I was taking care of Katniss, I didn't get a chance to see Foxface. I told her we would meet every other day. Yesterday was one, and I missed it.
Suddenly, Katniss starts stirring. Her expression shows a lot of pain. Maybe I need to replace the leaves?
Hey eyes open. I quickly duck behind a tree. I hope she didn't see me. I would be creeped out if I found out someone had been watching me sleep for two days.
"Rue?"
I tell her everything I know, who died and everything. "There's only ten left. Glimmer and the girl from 4 died from stings. That's how you got your bow and arrows."
"So how can we get rid of the careers?" Katniss asks me.
I think hard about this. Then I remember their supplies. "We can destroy their supplies. They have them all stacked up in the middle of the clearing. The ground is dug up all over the place over there." I tell her.
"Let's check it out."
I tree hop and Katniss runs. We get to the clearing. I show her the spot I've been hiding in. She scopes out the scene. Suddenly, a light bulb goes on in her head. I see it in her eyes.
"C'mon. Let's go back to camp."
The sun goes down.
We listen to the anthem and see that there were no deaths today. Katniss lets me get in her sleeping bag, too. I didn't realize how cold I was until I got in. I lean back on Katniss and fell my head touch her Mocking Jay pin. That's her token. Mine is the necklace from Hunter.
The Gamemakers don't play any tricks that night. I think they figured out what we are going to do.
At dawn, we wake up to a cannon. The boy from 10 flashes in the sky. Katniss looks over at me as if to say 'we better get a move on'.
Together, we set up 3 fires. Each one is set far away from the clearing to draw the careers away. They are set to smoke like crazy. We light the first one together, then I'm supposed to light the other two. But instead of doing that, I decide to warn Foxface first.
I listen carefully. I hear her tiny footsteps. "Foxface." I whisper. She comes toward me. Clove.
