I woke up as if it seems like I have been asleep for eternity as I see Marvel next to me eating an apple.
" How long was I asleep for" I questioned Marvel.
"About 3 days" he replied.
I notice Cato and Clove behind me fast asleep will occasional rolling around from Clove.
"How long were you out for" I ask Marvel.
"Only one day, I only got two stings".
" It seemed like from what I have noticed is that you got 5 stings" Marvel responded.
" I know Cato got like 8 stings and so did Clove, but my guess is that Clove will be out for a little longer since it is probably taking a bigger toll on her since she is smaller".
"I had weird dreams that scared me to death, did you" I asked.
"Yes" said Marvel.
" Apparently, those wasps are called Tracker Jackers. Which are genetically engineered wasps whose venom causes pain and hallucinations. If you get so many like Glimmer did, it is enough to kill you" Marvel explained.
"She didn't make it did she" I wondered.
" No I remember hearing a cannon and I think she was shown in the sky".
" Are you upset" I questioned.
"Kind of, we are the same age and in the same training year back in 1. But I knew she wasn't going to make it, and I think deep down inside she didn't think so either" Marvel spoke.
" Why would you say that" I curiously retaliated.
"Glimmer is the kind of person that lets things get to her head VERY easily. Yes, she was lethal, powerful, and down right beautiful. But at the end of the day the person who is going to make it out of here has got to have some kind of brains, especially in a year like this when a lot of tributes are very deadly in different ways than just being able to fight" said Marvel.
Right at that last word Cato perked his head up out of nowhere and screamed.
"Looks like someone had a good rest" I spoke sarcastically.
After a few minutes Cato calmed down and started to ask a bunch of questions. Obviously we explained what tracker jackers are and how long he was out for. Then he started getting in depth about the hallucinations that he experienced.
"So I was helping my father out in the nut, district 2's largest mountain, and suddenly bombs start going off everywhere. The bombs blew up the whole mountain and huge craters of rock blocked exits, making it impossible for my dad and I to escape".
"We're you the only one's in the Nut?" Marvel spoke.
"YES, which brought fear to a whole new level" Cato panted.
"What brought fear to a whole new level" Clove interrupted wide awake.
" Oh look it's sleeping beauty, I was hoping you would stay that way" I teased, earning a laugh from Cato and Marvel, but just a death glare from Clove.
Clove understood what's happened so far, and we all agree to gather our supplies at the cornucoppia along with stuff that people didn't retrieve during the bloodbath, after we go tribute hunting. We stumble across another tribute, or as I should say "alliance recruit". The district 3 male tribute Ian. Personally, I just wanted to kill him right then and there, even after he said he could guard our supplies by reactivating landmines. The others, especially Cato and Clove bought into it and thought it was a great idea. We make our way back to the Cornuccopia so Ian can do what he was recruited for. Several hours later, all supplies were rounded up into an enormous pyramid, threatening to blow someone to pieces if they make the wrong step. Our alliance only knows the trap and how to move passed it, to get supplies without being killed.
A couple hours have passed by, and we all have been recovering from the tracker jacker stings, and eating. I was going to start a group discussion, but all of a sudden Marvel sees smoke rising somewhere in the middle of the woods presumably from a fire. This evokes attention from everyone and Cato immediately gives orders.
"Clove and I will go straight to the fire, Marvel and Carla, go scope the general area, to try to find any other tributes, Ian, you stay right there on guard and don't even think about pulling any nonsense".
We headed out into different directions, as Marvel decided that he would cover an area not to far away from my area. I see smoke in another area. At that point I immediately knew this is a trap. I hear someone yell "Katniss" from a little far away. I bolted to that area hoping Katniss was there, but what I saw had me stunned. Marvel had an arrow in his heart, and little Rue had a spear through her abdomen following two canons, signaling a tributes death. Then I heard another loud "boom" through the arena, but It wasn't a canon. I ran back to the Cornucopia to see that the supplies had all been blown up to bits. I look shockingly at Ian as he tries to explain himself. But what he really doesn't know is how he is going to explain this to Cato and Clove if they come back. Those two have a lot more of a temper and natural rage than me. I probably come across as the "calm and nice one" to many. The two C's (how I like to think of Cato and Clove sometimes since they are district partners and practically do everything in this arena together) finally make an appearance. Cato, as expected was in a fit of anger which costed Ian his life as Cato unremorsefully snapped his neck. Clove was just trying to figure out who set off the bombs. Clove and I were eventually able to calm Cato down and convince him that whoever the bomber was is now dead. I guess that whoever shows up in the sky tonight will give us a good clue of the culprit.
