Margaret's POV

We decided not to take inventory of our supplies until today. All we did last night was rummage around in the bags until we found something we could use to sleep on. The floors in the building we were in were really cold. Sam had a blanket and a sleeping bag in his pack, so I slept in the sleeping bag, Sam used the blanket and Alicia kept watch.

The next day, Alicia spread out the items from her supplies bag. She had a water bottle, some wire, a grappling hook and rope, iodine and some shin guards, which we were all curious about.

In her food bag, she had 6 rolls, 2 sleeves of crackers, 4 packs of dried beef, 5 packs of dried fruit and 3 apples.

The weapons bag had 2 packs of throwing knives, one pack had large and the other had small. She gave me the smaller ones and kept the larger ones for herself. She also had 3 short swords for Sam. Not in the bag was her gold bow and arrows.

Sam's bag had the blanket and sleeping bag, a water bottle, some rope, a pair of socks, a bar of soap and a wrench.

We were set for food and supplies, but had absolutely no water. Sam thinks that there might be a way to fix the fountain to get water, but Alicia won't let him try. She says that it would give away our location to anyone around.

"Leesh, do you think there's anywhere here for us to get water?" I ask.

"I'm not sure. Let's take a walk and see if we find anything." She takes out her compass. "The Cornucopia is south of here, so let's keep walking north."

After walking for a couple hours, we come across a cliff. Down about 70 feet is a rushing stream. My knees go weak.

"Awesome," Sam says. "All we have to do is climb down and we can set up camp a little while away so we'll always have fresh water." I think I might start shaking when he suggests climbing down.

"Margaret, are you ok?" Alicia asks. "You're shaking and you look pale."

I take a deep breath. "I- I can't." I stutter. "Do you think there's another stream somewhere?"

"Are you afraid of heights?" Sam asks.

"Not... Heights." I say. "I'm more afraid of falling... And dying... It's just so high up. Do you think there's another stream somewhere?" I repeat.

"I guess we could see if there's a way to get down other than climbing," Sam reasons.

"Alright, we'll walk about a mile in either direction, but if we can't find a slope, we're climbing."

We start with walking east. It seems like we're walking uphill. We decide to turn back before we finish our mile. It seems pointless to keep walking further above the creek.

We start walking west again. After we cover the quarter mile or so that we already walked, the ground starts to flatten out. It doesn't seem to get much higher or lower.

The sun goes down and Alicia says "We'll set up camp here for tonight, but tomorrow, we're climbing down. Sorry Margaret, but we need water."

"Yeah, I think that may be a problem," Sam says. He points behind us, and I notice the first mutt ambling toward us.

Grace's POV

We wake up the next morning incredibly thirsty.

"We should look for a stream or something," I say. "I mean, there has to be fresh water in a forest, right?" The other girls nod. "Ok, everyone grab a bag."

Ever since last night, I've been the unspoken leader of the alliance. They would probably do anything I said as long as I gave them a reason to. We decide to walk downhill. Since water flows downhill, we could probably find the end of a stream and then walk up stream to some cleaner parts. Right?

Wrong.

We do find a creek. We fill up our bottles and drop some iodine in them. I've never been so excited to drink water. The iodine needed to sit in the bottles for 30 minutes. I hear some rustling in the bushes and voices. I look around, panicked. We had hidden our bags in some taller grass for this particular situation.

Hide, I mouth.

I run quietly to the tall grass where our supplies are. Rose hides in a bush and Melody quickly scales a tree.

"Yeah, this is where we went yesterday," someone says. I recognize it as the girl from District 4 and shudder.

Suddenly, one of the guys says "Hey, I think I found someone!"

My entire body freezes even though I'm about 700% sure they're not talking about me.

The girl from 2 throws a knife into the grass and Rose yelps in pain. I peek through the bushes and see all 5 Careers surrounding her. The boy from 1 strings an arrow and sends it through Rose's gut. I look up to Melody's tree, catch her eye and mouth stay. I quickly and quietly unzip one of our backpacks and grab the awl.

I run up behind the boy from 1 and plunge the awl through his neck.

Boom

Boom

2 cannons go off, telling me not to worry about saving Rose or finishing off Jared. I suddenly find myself surrounded by the 4 remaining careers.

"I don't plan on going down without a fight," I say. I take the awl and pierce the groin of the District 4 guy. The next thing I know, his spear is lodged into my skull. Before I can even think, my world swirls into darkness.

Boom

Justin's POV

3 cannons went off today. Even though I know it's terrible, I can't help but hope that it was either some of the Careers, the girls from 5 or 9, either from 6 or the male from 11. They're the threats at the moment.

At the bloodbath I grabbed a small backpack that was near my plate, which turned out to be all I needed. It had some rope, a large coil of wire, a water bottle, some iodine, a dagger and some matches. Surprisingly, the water bottle was filled.

After the bloodbath, I sprinted through the forest until I reached a fence. I climbed over it and was no longer in a forest, but a vast desert. I started walking through it and set up camp about a half mile away from the fence. Every time I needed food or water, I'd just go to the forest and check my snares.

Apparently, the girl from District 1 had the same idea as me. Yes, the girl from 1. The one that made me weak in the knees thinking about her. But, she didn't feel the same, and there can only be one Victor, so when I ran into her- literally- I wasted no time pinning her to the ground and holding my dagger to her throat.

"Stop!" She gasps. "Stop! I want to be allies!"

"Why?"

"You got a seven, right? In training?"

"Well... Yeah. But didn't you get, like, a nine?"

"Actually a ten."

"Then why do you want to be allies?" I lighten the pressure of the knife slightly.

"You seem useful. And... I think you're cute." Her cheeks turn slightly pink at her confession.

"Do you have any weapons?" I ask her, pretending to be unfazed. Inside, I felt like doing a backflip.

"I've got some throwing knives, spear heads and a short sword," she says. "I have food and supplies too. Trail mix, granola bars, flashlight, Walkie talkies, a couple nets and full water bottles... I don't even know what else. Maybe a spile?"

I pretend to consider it. "Ok, yeah. We can be allies. I set up some snares in the woods a couple hours ago. Want to go check them?" She nods. "I'm Justin, by the way."

"Ruby."

There's 2 squirrels and some kind of bird in my traps. We carry them back to the desert and light a fire to cook one of them. While the bird is roasting, I notice the long cut on Ruby's jaw.

"Oh my god," I say. "I think I cut you!" She puts her fingers to her chin and they come up bloody."

She inhales sharply. The next thing I know, there's a silver parachute floating down toward us. Ruby opens it and finds some sort of cream. There' say note attached which she quickly reads, rips in half and shoves into the outside pocket of one of her bags. She applies the cream to her cut.

"Do you think the bird is ready?" She asks. I poke it with a knife and it doesn't come out bloody.

"Yeah, it's done." We eat in silence.

After we're done eating, the Panem anthem comes on. I let out a sigh of relief when first person to appear in the sky is Ruby's District partner. She let's out a sound somewhere between a sigh, a laugh and a sob. It takes me a minute before I remember that they broke up not even 3 days ago. The next person is the girl from District 7. She was only 12 and I'm surprised that she made it past the bloodbath. I'm excited to see the girl from 9 after the girl from 7. Even though she was only 14, she got an 8 in training, which is better than I did.

"I'm getting tired," Ruby says. "Would you mind taking first watch?"

"Not at all." I reply.

After I'm sure she's asleep, I go to her bag and retrieve both pieces of the note. I out them together and it reads: Nice job Princess.

I'm being used.

Eulogies

Jared- My quiet Career. :'( I was planning some Ruby/Jared arena drama, but the time felt right. If you guys were really looking forward to Ruby/Jared arena drama, let me know and I'll write a one-shot. Maybe. Uch. Anyway, Jared was probably my favorite Career, just because he was so un-Career like. He was just a person who was trained on the off chance that he was reaped, which just happened to happen. #WeLoveYouJared

Rose- Rose was another one of my favorites, and a lot of you liked her too, but I really needed her to die in this chapter. Grace needed to be a fighter, and there was no other way I would have it.

Grace- I absolutely adored your character. At the very beginning, I actually planned on killing you in the bloodbath. I had no idea people would like you this much. But you died a fighter and that's what really mattered in the end.

Trivia- Which tribute tried to bring a spiked poison ring into the arena?

GO SPONSOR A TRIBUTE. GODDAMN.
