Chapter 11- The Attack

I woke up to an extremely loud buzzing noise. I flung my eyes open to see a huge swarm of what looked like wasps attacking the Careers! I quickly recognised them as Tracker Jackers. Capitol muttations! The muttations began piercing our skin and I let out a sickening squeal as one stung my eye! The career pack ran for the lake, Marvel dragged me quickly towards the lake because I was beginning to feel drowsy. I could hear the pained screams from behind us, "Help! Please Cato!". It was Marina, I wanted to help her but I couldn't get away from Marvel's grip! "Stop!" I mumbled.

He kept dragging me and as Marina's screams began to get fainter. Suddenly I was submerged underwater.

I surfaced and looked around, the arena was spinning and shrinking. I heard someone shout my name. I spun around to see my brother Resin by the Cornucopia. Marvel was behind him with a malicious smile on his face. Resin's face whitened and drooped. I observe him and notice the tip of a long, sharp spear poking out of his stomach. The spear was yanked out and Resin fell to the floor. My brothers scarlet blood dripped quickly off of Marvels spear. How could Marvel do that? He has known Resin since he was six years old!

'Glimmer! Glimmer! Glimmer?'

A voice called out. I thought it was Resin again but no. No one was around until I opened my eyes to see Marvel, Cato and Clove towering above me. We were near the Cornucopia.

"Get away from me!" I scream at Marvel frantically.

"Glimmer it's ok I'm here!" he cries.

I punch and kick at him to back away. Cato pins me down while Clove takes Marvel away.

"Chill out Glim!" Cato says softly.

"He killed him! He murdered him!" I scream

"Murdered who?" Cato asks

"Resin. Marvel murdered Resin right over there!" I yell with tears rolling down my face.

Cato looks confused as I nod towards the Cornucopia. "Who's Resin!" he yells over my cries

"My brother!" I weep

"Glimmer calm down! Your brother isn't in the arena!" Cato says

"He is I saw him! Marvel speared him right in front of me!" I cry

"Glimmer it was a hallucination! Katniss dropped tracker jackers on us remember?" Cato yells

I had forgotten about that! Tracker jacker stings cause powerful hallucinations!

In some cases they can cause death. I calm myself and whisper, "Where's Marina?"

"She's dead. The tracker jackers swarmed her because she failed to run away. Stung her to death." Cato mumbles.

I sigh. "How long ago was this?" I ask

"About half a day ago." Cato replies.

I think of what happened before the attack. Katniss!

"Cato! Katniss must have escaped!" I scream

"You're right! Clove, Marvel let's go! We're going to find Katniss!" Cato bellows.

I leap to my feet and begin to run to our camp in the woods. Clove, Cato and Marvel pursue me. I run non- stop to where the attack happened. I arrive to see the empty shell of the Tracker jacker nest in multiple pieces on the ground. A few metres away, Marina's dead body lays stiffly. Why hadn't the hovercraft picked her up yet? I thought. What if she's not dead! I ran over to her and slumped beside her. Her body was swelled up all over and she was twitching intensely. Her stiff body let out a soft moan. "She's not dead!" I yell to the others. They run over. Clove looks her up and down. "She's in a coma." she says.

"How do you know?" Marvel asks looking confused.

" When someone is in a coma, they are in a deep sleep but are breathing shallowly. That's the case here." She explains.

"What do we do with her then?" Cato asks.

"Try and save her!" I say

"Good luck, she'll be dead soon." Clove snaps.

I look sadly at her grotesque body. Marina was pretty, now she's a boil covered beast. A swelled up monster. A few minutes later just as Clove said, Marina's cannon sounded. She was finally dead. The four remaining careers began to walk away so the hovercraft could collect Marina when a rustling came from behind us.

It was Katniss! She was raiding Marina for supplies. "Get her!" Cato screamed.

"I don't have my arrows!" I yell

In a flash, Clove had released a knife from her hands grip and it flew straight into Katniss's eye! Great shot! Katniss fell to the ground and shrieked in pain. We started to run after her but she was up and away instantly. "Just leave her guys!" Cato began. "There's a knife in her eye, she won't go far!".

It's true she'd probably die from infection or something like that. Katniss stumbled away from us like the mentor from 12. The alcoholic one, Haymitch.

"Why'd you let her go?" Marvel scoffed

"We aren't strong enough to get her right now. Clove hit her in the eye with a knife though Marvel. She might just die from infection." I reply.

"Oh. I'm sorry babe. So what now?" Marvel said.

"It's almost sunset" said Clove

"Then we'll go hunt some tributes." Cato snarled with annoyance.

"Fine by me." I added.

We began to walk when Marvel twisted his hand into mine. I smiled at him not noticing that he was gazing into my eyes. Marvel leant down and planted a long, soft passionate kiss on my smooth lips. "You guys are about to make me hurl!" yells Clove.

We separate at once and continue to walk hand in hand. Cato and Clove were walking in front of us. They were so close together, I swear they could smell each others breath. "Guys!" I whisper-yell, "Look!"

The male tribute of district 10 was crawling into a bush. Soon enough he stops in his tracks as a short spear pierces the back of his neck. Blood gushes out from the wound as the cannon sounds signaling the end of another fallen tribute.

"Marvel! What the heck!" Clove snaps

"What now woman?" he sighs

"I'm itching for a kill! You know that, he was mine!" she yells.

"We're all itching to kill right?" Cato snarls with an unsettling look.

"Right" I mutter

After killing the D10 boy, the drastically smaller career pack set up camp back at the Cornucopia next to our supplies. The campfire we light shows the treeline on the artificial horizon. I snuggle up to Marvel for warmth, he slides his arm around my shoulders holding me tighter. I loved having his arm around me. I feel protected.

"Cato and me are going to get more firewood, protect the camp!" Clove says.

"No problem" I answer

By now, Cato is already a good distance away but is still in view. Clove sprints to catch up to him and eventually she does. In the pale light I can just about make out Cato's arm around Clove. 'I knew it!' I thought to myself. They are in love!

It had been awhile since Cato and Clove left. I was beginning to worry slightly. "Why aren't they back yet!" I whine

"Maybe they got distracted." Marvel smirks proudly.

I'm about to say something when I'm interrupted by the national anthem of Panem.

It's time to see who's died today. Yesterday it was the D8 girl alone. Today, Peeta's face is the first to appear. His face isn't melted or burned, it's his pretty little Capitol headshot. He was quite the looker but nothing compared to Marvel. Next, Marina's beautiful face is on display. Her raven hair hanging down past her shoulders and her brown eyes glowing in the light of the seal. Marina really was stunning. Lastly is the boy from D10. The crippled one.

"Well that's that. We're in the top 9 babe!" Marvel says

"We are. I'm surprised I'm even this far in. I would've died in the bloodbath if Cato

hadn't of been there to kill D6 before he killed me." I sigh

"What? District 6 almost killed you!" Marvel bellowed

"Yes but it's fine. I'm safe and sound in your arms. Calm down." I coo

"No it's not fine Glim, I should've been there to save you not Cato. I'm a terrible boyfriend." Marvel cried

"No Marvel! You're the best boyfriend in the whole of Panem! You were defending yourself from the District 8 guy!" I mumble.

Marvel look as though he was about to say something but he was interrupted by the thundering footsteps of Cato.

"Hey lovebirds" Clove snaps.

"What?" I ask

"Look what we found." Cato laughs while shoving a large bundle into the camp.

"It's a boy." I exclaim.

"Yep. District 3, we found him under a bush." Clove sneers with a grin

"Sweet! A toy!" Marvel snorts.

"Ye, I get first shot since I spotted him!" Cato yells

"Damn you Cato!" Clove growled fiercely.

I could see the desire to kill or injure something roaring in her eyes.

"Here, tie him to that tree." said Cato tossing the D3 boy to the ground.

Marvel and I tied him to the tree as Cato and Clove went off again to sharpen their weapons.

"You know Marvel, I think there's something going on between those two." I say suspiciously

"So do I, all the sneaking off together. Even we don't do that and we're a couple!" he replied.

I loved hearing him call us a couple, it brought a warm, fuzzy feeling to my heart.

Minutes later, Cato and Clove arrived back at camp. I squinted into the darkness,what I saw was extraordinary! Cato's big muscular arm wrapped tightly around Clove's small slim body.

"I thought there was something going on between you two." I say

Catos arm immediately retreats from Cloves body. "What are you talking about Belcourt?" he sneered.

Clove glared at me. Belcourt? Cato had never called me Belcourt before.

"Excuse me?" I spit.

"There's nothing between us!" Clove mutters.

"Don't hide it, we all know you two are in love just like Marvel and me. We're in the arena, might as well let your feelings show." I snapped.

The glare slowly faded from Clove's face, her hand entwined with Catos. I couldn't contain myself. A wide grin spread across my face as they held hands tighter than ever. Catos arm slithered around her waist like a snake.

"Not so bad is it?" Marvel laughed.

"You're right. It's great." Clove smiles.

"For once you're right." Cato snapped.

"How cute." Said the D3 boy.

"Oh yeah, forgot about him." Cato growled.

Cato sped towards him with his sword ready to slash the boy.

"No! No! Stop I can help you!" the boy whimpered.

"How 3?" Marvel spat

"I can rebury the pedestal mines to protect your supplies! Don't kill me please!" He pleaded.

"Cato, you can't deny that offer." Clove whispered.

Cato puzzled, finally he said, "Alright Tech boy, at first sunlight you're going to rebury the mines without a fuss. Understand?".

District 3 nodded his head violently.

The career pack gathered around the fire, leaving the boy strapped to his tree.

Cato embraced Clove in his tight grip and snuggled her in the glow of the fire.

Marvel and I were laying down by the fire, stargazing. I rested my head upon his muscular torso. Feeling his abs every time he took a breath. I think about the circumstances, only one of us are getting out alive. My intentions are to make Marvel a victor.
