This chapter i think is my shortest so far. It's also one of the last. After this, there's going to be two more. I'm definitely going to keep writing stories, and I may do another Hunger Games one, so keep an eye out for anymore.
Another day goes by and we see no one. By that night, no cannon's have gone off. Still ten. That night, the seven of us sit in the cave around a fire. I'm sure the cameras can't see us here, but you never know. There could be one hidden. We sit talking about what to do next.
"Listen guys." I say, getting everyone's attention. They're all looking at me now.
"We need to decide what to do once we kill the other three. Now, I'm sure some of you would just vote for a free-for-all the second the last person dies, but come on. We're a team." Leo, Taylor, and Rima nod.
"So, I have an idea. How about this. Once we kill off the last person, we don't just start killing each other. We divide up supplies evenly, and then in an hour, it's a free-for-all. If we want to re-group, try to make the groups small. How's that sound?" Everyone thinks it over, and then nods.
"I know some of us will want to stay in a group, so we can divide up supplies that way. Each person will get some food, water, a weapon or two, matches medicine, and then we go off our separate ways."
"One hour?" asks Emma. I nod.
"One hour. Enough time to get a fair distance away from others."
The next day, we go off and try to find the remaining three. The first person we find is a boy named Aaron. He's setting up a snare, and doesn't notice it when Emma comes up behind him. We take his supplies and go on our way. The next person we find hours later, at sunset. He's the one who was in the tree that I set on fire. His arm is partially burned. Our plan is to have someone walk out in front of him as a distraction, and then another will sneak up behind him. Taylor volunteers, and so she runs out in front of him and then stops, pretending to look lost. Matt smiles and gets ready to throw his knife, but Carson comes up and finished him. Two down, one to go.
That night, they show the pictures of Matt and Aaron. Ally is still out there, and we know she'll be hard to find. If she doesn't want to be seen, she isn't. Rima has gravitated towards me even more. She knows that without someone looking out for her, she'll be dead in seconds. She also knows I'm the only one who would even consider teaming up with her. I've already made my decision, though, and I know someone isn't going to like it.
Two days go by. Nothing. This must be getting boring for the viewers. The one exciting thing that happened to us was I almost got eaten by a wolf. While I was scouting around for Ally, four huge wolves came out of nowhere and attacked me. Rima was with me and I told her to run. She did, but came back with Leo less than a minute later. He managed to get the wolf off me and together we killed two and the other two ran. Other than that, nothing happened. After those two days, we realized something. We needed to split up. Now. Finding Ally was hopeless, so we all agreed it would be best to go our own ways. We divided up the supplies evenly, said our goodbyes, and then started out separately. Taylor and Carson went together, naturally, and Emma and Jacob went off by themselves, not wanting or needing a partner. Leo hesitated, and then saw me shake my head at him. He sighed and walked off. I saw Rima going off and ran to catch up with her.
"Hey, where are you going?" I asked. She stopped and looked at me puzzled. I smiled
"You didn't think you could leave me behind, did you?" At that she smiled too, and we set off together. It was about seven o' clock when we split, and no one died that day. Rima and I set up a camp, sleeping in a tree as I had that night by myself. I wondered to myself whether or not Rima had thought of the obvious. Both of couldn't win. If only one person could win these games, I'd want it to be her, more than anyone. I feel asleep with that thought in my head.
