As one ends another starts

by Bubbabowl

This story follows the life of Katniss and Peeta Mellark and their two children Willow and Rye. It has been years after the rebellion and the end of the games, but as a new president has been elected the rules have started to change...

16. Chapter 16

i still can't really believe

i give my team a hug

I give Musit a separate hug and he forces something into my hand

I look at it when we break up and it's a ring, a plain silver ring

but inside it says 'together we fight, together we fall'

"my sister had it when she went into war outside panem, that ring is the only thing I got back" Musit says and smiles

"no, Musit, I can't take this"

"yes you can willow, you are strong and promise me you will do everything you can to help your friends and yourself"

i give Musit one last big hug

'all competitors in the tubes'

a voice comes from no where, I walk into the tube and breathe while the tube closes

breathe

breathe

breathe

the tube starts moving up and I start panicking as I can't see anything

i look up and there is light, it carries on, I finally reach the top and is woodland, but it's hot very hot, like I have never been so hot before.

Its like the same set up from the 74th hunger games

i look around trying to find noha and I can't find him

shitshitshit

i see corrie and he looks terrified

i look to find Robbie and he looks like the most confused thing

i find Mahic and is looking at me

"good luck" his mouth gestures and smiles

I mouth back "you too Mahic"

shit it's at three

nah I'm no ready, where is Noah?!

1

fuck me

a long siren Wales and everyone runs

I stand for 2 seconds but it feels like a life time

I find myself running to Noah who is fighting someone but I can't fingure out who

I run and kick the person in the head then Noah stabs him

"shit" I say and look up to Noah

noah and I run into the forest with two bag packs, a spear and a large knife

We are running for about 20 before we stop

"well" Noah says sitting on a log catching his breath

i smile "right come on let's get up this tree"

"What both of us" Noah sounds shocked

"no just me, you can stay here and get killed" I sigh and he laughs and we both climb the tree

we get to a really large branch that we both sit on it

Noah goes through our back packs

"So we have:

a rope

pen knife

water bottle

paper

matches

sleeping bag

And a note" Noah says and pulls out the note

I grab it off him and start reading

"congrats on getting a bag, if you are reading this you must be alive, day and night will come at any moment in time. There will be things you have never met and food which you will never have thought existed, this is a new world and its up to you to adapt and survive"

"Well then" Noah says and sighs while looking in the other bag "this one is the same but instead of a sleeping bag it had a small first aid kit"

"well they have put a lot in these packs"

"think they want these games to last more than a week"

"great" I sigh "it's gunna be a long horrible nightmare"

all of a sudden it falls pitch black and very very cold

We tie a long bit of rope around Noah and I so we don't fall off

we hug each other in the sleeping bag for body heat.

i wake up and I have no clue how long I slept for but I'm not tired

Noah is still asleep so I just look up at the sky

I start hearing laughing in the distance

"Noah wake up" I whisper shaking him

he gets up very fast and we pack everything away and climb higher into the leaves so they don't see us

the chatter get louder and before we know it

the careers are right under our feet

We watch them hoping they go away but no

they set up camp

are you freaking kidding me?!

"Calm down" Noah whispers very quietly noticing I'm very annoyed

I see Mahic and he is not enjoying himself what so ever, I feel bad for him, if he leaves the careers they will kill him

they start a fire and laugh at storie that they share

I sit down on a branch and it makes a creaking noise

for fuck sake man

Mahic is the only one who hears the noise and looks up

he sees Noah and I and smiles

we both smile back but as soon as he sees us he starts trying to persuade the others to move on

"right guys think about this it's not even noon yet we can go catch food find water, we can stop when it starts to get dark" Mahic says jumping up from where he was sitting

" come on Mahic, have a seat and calm down we are the careers we kill anyone in our way" the guy from district one says

"who has water?" Mahic says

no one answers

"who has food?" Mahic then says

no one answers

"exactly" he carries on grabbing his sword and rucksack and everyone follows after Mahic making his point

Mahic looks stops and ties his shoes so everyone goes past

he looks back at us and smile and mouths 'good luck' and runs a catches up with the rest of them
