A.N. Salutations. Just wanted to post a quick chapter. I am truly sorry for the wait, the holidays are insane. Read on!

Clove POV
We opened up the tracking app and saw it blinking right around the block. "Come on guys, over here," I said, waving the others over. We walked out the door and ran down the street, a cool autumn wind in the air. Following the small green blip on my phone's map, we twisted around the corner. "Only a bit more to go," Finnick yelled back to the group. Just a few more steps I think to myself. I am startled out of my thoughts by my phone saying "You have arrived at your destination." I looked up and saw...Annie's house? I stopped walking abruptly. "What's going on, this must be a mistake," I cried out. Stopping next to me, Foxface asked "What, what is it Clove?" "Yeah, what's going on?" Thresh asked. "It says this is where Katniss is," I tell them, as if it's no big deal. "We'll then, lets head in!" Rue pushes ahead of me and knocks on Annie's door. Annie's voice floats out, saying " I'll be right there!" The door swung open to reveal Annie and, much to my surprise, Madge. "Oh, hey guys," Madge says awkwardly. Rue looks at her for a moment, and then begins to talk in a sickly sweet voice. "Hi, have you seen Katniss? Don't answer that, it's a rhetorical question. I'm coming in now, okay?" Not waiting for an answer, Rue strolled through the door. I looked at Peeta, who was standing next to me. He knew what I was going to ask, because he said "Yes, Clove, I think we should follow her." Beckoning the others to follow, Peeta and I scampered up the steps and in the door. We found Rue in the living room with-"Katniss," I exclaimed. "Are you alright?" She whispered something, but I couldn't hear her. She repeated it, but by the time I figure out what she was saying, it was too late.
Line break
"Ahhhhhhhhh," I screamed, asI flailed around. "Snakes, snakes! Get them off, get them off!" I was desperately trying to claw my way out of the snake-filled pit when I heard laughter. I finally got far enough out to see who was laughing. "Oh my gosh Clove," Annie said before she dissolved in a fit of giggles. "I-I never knew you were so scared of snakes!" Madge was also in the room, and she leaned over the pit. I assumed she was going to help me out, because it was impossible to do on my own. Instead, she reached into the hole and pulled out a snake. "It's fake Clove, they're all fake!" I was getting closer now, and when I got out, they would pay. Madge looked at Annie and said "She's almost out, we have to leave." Annie nodded in agreement and they both turned to go. "Oh, and Clove," Annie said, turning around. "There are cameras in here, and you're gonna be a star! On YouTube, that is!" I'm clawing desperately at the walls now, so close to freedom. I clambered out just after they left and whispered "Let the pranks begin. Let them begin for real."
