No action. No death.

A boring day in the Hunger Games. Kailey and Abby stayed in their tiny shelter the whole day. They only left once to catch a bird for food.

The "careers" Jeff, Skye, and Marilyn stayed on their island. Probably waiting for the others to come to them.

Jacob searched and searched but only ended up bringing himself farther from everyone else. That could turn out well for him, but could also make the Games drag on.

I guess they'll have to bring the mutts back.

I stare at the column, empty of faces, even as it gets dark. No one died today, but what about tomorrow?

I'm scared. Five out of six tributes are very close to each other. And Kailey is one of them.

As everyone settles, I watch Kailey sleep. She sleeps so peacefully. The poor thing. Death getting closer each day, how does she bear it?

I stay awake, even as everyone else goes to bed. I keep watching Kailey sleep. I don't want her in the Hunger Games. I don't want her on death's doorstep. I want her home, with us.

I watch her until Mom comes and sends me to bed.

Sorry for the extremely short chapter. There wasn't much to write about. I'm bad at space fillers.
