I Do Now Own The Hunger Games!
Glimmer Token[D1 Girl]
I feel the rush of being in the Hunger Games. Right now me, the other Careers, and lover boy were chasing miss 'Girl on Fire' through the riverbank and into the woods. Me, Cato, Marvel, and Clove were screaming and cheering to kill the girl on fire. I had my bow and arrows ready. Cato and me were ahead of the others, lover boy was last as always. Cato was shouting "Lets get her!" and I shouted right back "Come on!" then we all ran in the girl on fire's direction.
Cato ran fast ahead while the rest of us struggles a little. I can't show weakness since I am a Career though. I ran after Cato who I could see clutching his sword tightly, itching for a kill. We all managed to catch up with Cato who was looking up a tree. We then all looked up the tree and there she was, the girl on fire. I smiled and then Cato was climbing the tree. Clove shouted "Get her Cato!" I wasn't going to be left out and shouted "Come on Cato!" both me and Clove shouted, along with Marvel while lover boy was quiet.
I heard Cato said "I'm going for you." but the fire girl wasn't scared cause she said "Its nice down there you know." Cato kept climbing till he reached a skinny branch, he put his hand on it but it cracked and he fell on the ground with a thud. He grunted, looked at the girl and came to me and took my bow and one arrow. I didn't argue with him but said "Shoot!", even Clove said that. Cato shot one arrow but it missed by a lot. Then I took the bow from Cato and said "Let me have a try." he didn't argue with me. I took a arrow and aimed, then I let it go. It went by, missing by a hair. I cussed.
"Wait." I turned and so did the rest of the Careers. The boy from 12, lover boy said wait. He held his spear in his right hand and said "She's not going to come out. She'll have to come down or she'll starve to death." I had to agree with that but in the end it's Cato's decision since he is the pack leader. Cato growled softly and said "Fine we set up camp here." he then stalked off. Clove went with him. I looked up the tree and fire girl. Marvel was by me and said "You alright?" I nodded "Yeah, lets just get firewood while Cato and Clove do other things." he nodded and we both walked off. Lover boy just stared for a moment and walked off on his own.
After a few hours we came back all together. Me and Marvel found wood and put it in a pile. Cato and Clove brought a owl to eat. Lover boy brought sticks to put in the pile as well. I was not found for eating a owl but I had no choice since there wasn't actually meat to eat. Night was setting and we lit the fire while eating owl meat. I went to cuddle with Cato and smiled, he did as well. On the corner of my eye I see Clove glaring at me but I ignore it. Later on Cato put the tip of his sword into the fire, he brought it out and blew on it. You could still see the red, orange, and yellow color on the tip, hot from the fire. I get closer to Cato and he doesn't mind. I look to see Clove not facing us, she aimed her knife at something at the ground, I couldn't see what. But then she threw it and it landed on a lizard who already had one in its back, now two. Marvel was lying down the ground, smiling. Lover boy was also lying on the ground but he wasn't smiling, expressionless. I look up the tree and smiled and laughed a little, seeing the girl on fire suffering from the burns and hunger. Cato does to, and I yet again hug him. We started to talk together, not including lover boy. After a while we agreed to sleep and kill in the morning. Marvel went to sleep right away. Lover boy did to. Clove took out a knife, opened it and fell asleep on the ground, man was she weird, sleeping with a knife. Cato laid on the ground to and I laid on his arms and fell asleep right away.
I could feel the sunlight hitting me but I didn't wake. I was still tired and besides I was with Cato, I would be safe anyhow no matter what. As long as I am in his arms I will be safe. And that made me go closer to him, my eyes still close. But then I hear a noise, like something's knocking on my head, but I ignore it and tried to get more sleep before the others wake up. I get relaxed and just when I do I hear a bang. Everyone wakes up and I realize what that bang was, a tracker jacker nest. And now they are swarming all over, millions of them. We all screamed and grabbed our stuff and than ran. I couldn't see in front of me but all I knew we had to run. Of course I was screaming and so did the others.
I screamed at the top of my lungs while I was running. But I tripped, the stings hurt so much that I couldn't feel my body. I cried for help but none didn't come. I screamed some more, trying to get the bugs off me with no use. They were all over me. I screamed and cried some more until I fell to the ground. Then the tracker jackers flew away, I already felt darkness and I stopped moving. I am Glimmer Token of district 1 and I died in the 74th Annual Hunger Games.
