HAI DURRR. XD

Sorry I haven't been updating. I had to go to a Doctors' appointment yesterday and I went to my moms' friends' house. And the other past few days I have been busy. So, yeah... I'M SORRYYYYYYYY.

I also want to say that I just want to give thanks to all of my lovely readers (and reviewers :D) because they give me so much motivation to write this story. :) Usually I'm a lazy person and procrastinate so much. (I know, I'm sorry. D:)

Disclaimer: I don't own the Hunger Games. Sadlyyy...

Rue

It becomes nightfall and all this time I always had the feeling that someone is watching us. But whenever I hear voices and turn to their way, it becomes silent. It must be some hallucinations or something the Gamemakers made to make us go crazy.

"Do you ever get the feeling that someone is watching us?" I ask Dave as he's setting up some snares. He shrugs and continues his snare. I sigh and tell him that I'll find dinner. I load my bow and look for some animals. I step on something that is quite hard. I look down and see that there is a knife on the ground. I raise an eyebrow to what this may be doing here. I look around for any tributes. I shrug since there are none and pick it up. Then, I realize, it could be a trap.

I scan the area once more and once again, no tributes. I sigh and continue looking for food. It seems like I can only find rabbits in this arena. I return back to our camp and we begin cooking the rabbit.

"Do you get nightmares? Or, you know, weird dreams?" Dave asks. I nod my head slowly. He sighs, "Mine's not really about the games though. It's my mom." My head slowly shifts to him, "Your mom?" he nods. I asked what happened to her and Dave becomes silent, "I completely understand if you don't want to tell me." I say to him noticing his unnerving position.

He shakes his head, "No, you're my best friend, you deserve to know." Dave faces me and starts his story.

It was a sunny afternoon and Dave was just outside playing in the backyard with the grass and his toys. He heard his parents shouting inside the house and decided to take a look at what was happening. He goes closer to the window and sees that his mother, who is holding his younger sister, is shouting angrily at his father.

"You just don't understand me!" Daves' mother shouts. His father shouts back, "And you don't understand me!" "I can't believe I would marry someone like you!" his mom shouts and puts Felicia on a chair. She goes upstairs and Dave goes inside.

"Dad, what's going on?" asks the five year old. His dad shakes his head, "Nothing, Dave." and then he walks away. Dave was confused at what was happening. He looked at his sister, who was crying very loudly.

That night, he saw his mother pass by his room with a large luggage. Since Dave was so young, he thought she was just moving some stuff away and the morning after, his mother was no where to be found, "Dad, where's mom?" Dave asks his dad. His dad shrugs, "I don't know, Dave. I don't know."

Daves' eyes are filled with water and he quickly wipes them away. I look down, feeling bad for him. "Look, our rabbit's ready." Dave mumbles after an awkward silence.

Katniss

As Rue and dave are eating their rabbit in silence, I walk over to Johanna, "Johanna?" "I wish I didn't run away. I wish I didn't!" She shouts loudly. I rub her back as she cries silently on my shoulder. Annie stands in the doorway and puts on a sad smile. She walks over to Johanna and I, "Why don't you go to your 'husband' and talk to him?" Johanna shakes her head, "I need to take care of my tributes, Annie."

"But they died in the bloodbath." Annie says. Johanna sighs, "It's not fair to leave you guys here. You two are my friends." "It's okay, Jo. You can see him." I say to her. She looks at both of us and sighs, "I guess it's time for me to visit them."

Rue

"I'll take the first watch." I say to Dave. Helooks at me with a raised eyebrow, "No. I'll do it." I roll my eyes at his protection, "You need to rest." I tell him. "You as well." he fights back. I roll my eyes once more, "I think it's better for you since you ran a lot." We keep arguing on who gets the first watch and after 5 minutes of bickering, Dave finally agrees to take a rest.

As he falls asleep on the tree, I take a look around at the area once more. After a minute of silence, the trees start rustling and I stay alert. I look down the tree and scan the area once more. I become suspicious on who's there but I can't leave Dave here alone by himself. I decide to just ignore it and just look at the scenery. Suddenly, I hear the Capitols' Anthem and look up into the sky. No deaths today. The Capitol must be bored right now. But we'll give them a show tomorrow when we crash the career pack.

Since Dave has his own sleeping bag, I slip into mine and look at the moon. If that is just an artificial moon, then the Capitol is just plain stupid. My eyes start to close from the events of today. I try to keep them open but it won't stay put. So, in the end, I drifted off to sleep.

I am in the meadow once more and I stand up, expecting to see Aunt Prim. And of course, I see her walking towards me and I run up to hug her. She laughs, "Missed me, Rue?" I nod quickly. We both sit on the grass and Aunt Prim pulls out a picnic basket. I grin widely as I help her set it up. As we were done, we both sat on the blanket and started eating. Both of us pick up a sandwich.

"I wish you were here with us, Aunt Prim." I tell her. She smiles heartwarmingly, "I really do wish I were with you." She says. We continue eating our sandwiches and I break the silence saying something to her, "Mom misses you." She looks down sadly, "I miss her as well. Tell her that, okay?" I sigh and look down as well. Then, I realize, she said to tell that to her. I can't tell that unless I...

"Win. Yes, you have to win." Aunt Prim says, breaking my thoughts. I look up and she smiles at me, "I can read your thoughts." I raise an eyebrow and she laughs. I laugh along with her afterwards and continue eating. "But seriously Rue, everyone knows you're going to win." she says. Suddenly, it starts getting hotter, "Does it seem hot to you? And is it daytime already? I don't feel comfortable now." Aunt Prim shrugs, "You fell asleep at 5 am. I know it seems quite short but we were here for 2 hours. So, it's 7 am right now." she says.

Aunt Prim and I start sweating, "Rue, you need to wake up." I raise an eyebrow, "What? Why? I'm fine with this heat." She shakes her head, "You're in danger, you need to wake up!" She starts shaking me vigorously, "Wake up, Rue! Wake up!" She screams. As she shakes me harder, everything blurs out.

Dave is screaming and screaming and I am startled because he keeps shaking me as vigorous as Aunt Prims', "We need to hurry! There's fire everywhere!" I look down and see the fire's spreading up to our tree.

My eyes widen and the thing I manage to get out of my mouth is, "RUN!"
