I couldn't believe my eyes. The Capitol was waiting for this moment, when we all held our weapons. From what I had killed to what the others had killed, there were only 7 people left, most my team. There was Riley, Jessica, Izzy, and Grace, Gram, Reed, and me.
The first thing I heard when I got to my senses was "GO FOR THE SHORTY GIRL!"
Looking to my right was Izzy. Everyone was aiming at her. I guess this was my chance.
An arrow whizzes into Riley's forehead, Jinxed with Izzy's death. I hate gore. But I have to see it.
Narrowing my eyes on the last 4 targets which 3 on my team, I hear Jessica yell, "Stop! Don't you want to live a little longer?" All of us went silent, and everyone's hands opened. Hearing the Jail doors open back to the forest and field, I motion for Grace, Gram and Izzy to come with me. Behind me I could hear a silent "Thank You" from Jessica.
Sitting in a tree, we decide what to do next. It looked like the people left in the arena were all professionals. "Reed, sharpen arrows, knives, and axes. Prepare to fight us. Not that we want to. Jessica will be the first target. Then we will use our real strength to fight each other." 2 cannons are heard. Grace jumped down from her tree. "I guess," she concludes, closing her eyes, "The Hunger Games will end soon. With either one or 0 coming out pronto, it's the end for the rest of us. Good luck, guys." We all give a deadly but silent nod.
Looking at my injuries from the past days, there was a cut in my calf from something. My left foot was bruised everywhere, since I had no shoe for it. And now it would be the very end of that. It was either death or fortune.
I couldn't wait.
