Happy Valentine's Day people! Um..since my two friends, Megan and Kaleigh are single, we also made today Single Awareness Day! If you're single today and you have good friends, you can get a whole flower stem! Yeah. Pretty epic.
Also, yesterday Megan and I banned Kaleigh from our bus seat. Why? Because at lunch this guy, Keegan held out a bag of cookies and says "Do you want these, Sutton?" Then Kaleigh grabbed them from him, yelling, "I want them." Keegan said, "Okay, I guess you can have them." Then Kaleigh wouldn't share them with us! So we banned her.

"So...Which way is this exit?" Julia asked Tucker.

Tucker picked up a stick and drew a circle in the ground. "Well, imagine that the games are inside a circle, like this one. The games start at the middle." He said, putting a little dot in the middle. "We came east, so we would be around...here" He put an X east of the dot. "The field is surrounded by a fence and-"

Alyss interrupted. "A fence should be easy to get over. Why, we only need to walk east until-"

"The fence is charged by an energy that could kill a person with only a touch. Most of the time..."

"How did they get an energy like that?" Julia asked, looking at the edges of the circle.

"Malkallam. The sorcerer." Tucker said simply, but that was the only answer that Julia needed.

"It's only charged most of the time?" Alyss asked. "Can we tell when it isn't charged?"

"I don't think that it's ever charged. If anyone tried to climb it, they could just turn it on." Tucker said, looking east, where he knew a fence was.

"Well, how can we escape if they can just zap us off?" Alyss asked.

"Luck." Tucker said.

"What?" Alyss said. "So we're most likely going to die while we're trying to escape?"

"We're most likely to die because of the fact that you told everyone that we were planning on escaping."

Alyss opened her mouth to respond, but Julia interrupted her. "You two shouldn't fight about this. Aren't there more important things?"

Tucker and Alyss looked at each other. They both nodded. "Okay so, what do we do?" Alyss asked.

"We have to get to the fence." He said, and he started walking. with Alyss and Julia close behind.

They were walking in silence. Tucker was in the lead, with Alyss and Julia close behind him. The forest was strangely silent and Alyss couldn't shake the feeling that they were being watched.

Then, a cannon shot broke the silence, causing Alyss to jump. Then she felt a pang of sadness, realizing what it meant. "I wonder who it was." She said.

"Knowing our luck, it was someone who would've been a good ally." Tucker said darkly.

"Or it could have been some dangerous person who would stop at nothing to win." Julia pointed out.

Tucker grumbled something that Alyss couldn't make out. "How far do we have to go?" She asked.

"How would I know?" He said, as he stepped over a thornbush.

"You're the one who knows these things."

Tucker remained silent, and Alyss noticed yet again how quiet it sounded. "Why do you think it's so quiet?" Alyss asked Tucker.

"I don't know!" He said sharply.

"What do you think, Julia?" She asked.

Julia looked aound. "I'm not exactly an expert on forests or whatever, but wouldn't silence be a sign of danger? Like, all the animals were hiding or something?" She said, a little nervously.

"Tucker, do you think she's right?" Alyss asked.

"Will you stop asking me questions?" Tucker said, matching Alyss's tone.

Alyss narrowed her eyes, and was about to make a scathing reply when a something whizzed past Alyss, barely missing her head. She let out a small shriek.

"What?" Tucker asked, turning around.

"Someone shot something at me!" Alyss hissed as she turned around to see what it was.

"What the hell?" Tucker said when his eyess locked on the object in the dirt. Then he registered what it was, and he cursed under his breath. "We have to get out of here!" He said to Alyss and Julia. Then he turned and started tearing through t6he underbrush, closely followed by his two allies.

High in a tree, the archer smiled as she loaded another needle. The needle had been dipped in Damen poison, which was an extremely lethal poison found only in Hibernia. She nodded to herself as she aimed. They were running right into the trap. Her mission would be too easy.

I bet you can't guess who it is!
In other news, you guys should read this Hunger Games fanfic by ForeverTexas. It's called, Fight to the Death in the 67th Hunger Games. And it has my character, Katana Clasia. It's good. It's really good.
P.S. Do any of you want to do a multi-authored fanfic with me. I was thinking that it would be a kind of thing with Gilan's apprentice. It would be kinda like a roleplay, where people tell the story from their character's POV. Anyone interested?
