Juniper Berrymore's POV-D7

Kameron made me sleep all night last night under a little cove made by fallen trees. It was generally dry under there, but I didn't want him to stay up all night, again. He was getting too tired. We had a small flame going and we cooked all the meat we could. He received a bow and some arrows from his egg. It was interesting when we opened it. The bow unfolded and the arrows stretched out.

My egg had a jug of poison, I wasn't sure what to use it for but, I had some ideas. I thought about poisoning some of this meat and leaving it out for somebody to eat, but I wasn't sure if that was smart.

Kameron had shot a lot of little fury creatures last night and I cooked them. We had about a weeks worth of meat right now, but I wouldn't keep. It was all in our pack, and Kameron was trying to feed me while we walked. I was getting really really tired of him. I thought about breaking the alliance soon. He had the pack, with my poison and all our food. If I could get it from him, I could run.

The rain was starting to lighten, but the temperature dropped a lot last night. I guessed it was about 55 degrees.

"Um, Juniper, I need to um, relieve myself." He said it without looking at me. He hated not being able to see me. This was my chance!

"I'll hold the pack while you, you know." He nodded and handed me the back pack. It was a lot heavier than before. He handed me his bow and arrows, and ran off into the woods.

I refused to take his weapons, so I set them on the ground. I left him my rock, since now I had his dagger. I said a silent thanks, and ran off into the woods. The rain covered the sound of me running; I hope.

Caden Archilles Brown's POV-D1

"So where do you want to head?" I asked Katerina. We'd just enjoyed some toasted apples over the fire Katerina started with her flame gun. I was almost out of food from the careers.

"Um, do you want to try to find anyone?" I wasn't sure if she went look for, as in ally with, or look for as in hunt down. I hoped it was the first one.

"No, I think we need to find more food." We strolled hand in hand for an hour or two before we came to a river. It was pretty full, now from the rain, which had all, but stopped falling. There was a thin layer of frost starting to form on the top. Katerina still wore my jacket, and I wasn't going to ask for it back.

I started to spear some fish about 8in. long. I had about 3, when I turned to see Katerina was gone. The leaves formed a trail which I followed full speed. I heard her scream and I was thankful I hadn't left my light sword. I ran and eventually found Perry, his knees on her shoulders. He looked tired, and all he had was a spear in his hand. He must've run all night. A strange glow came off the spearhead and the word radiation came to mind. He was trying to pick the best spot to skewer her.

"NOO!" I screamed opening my sword and running at him. He drooped the sword and it struck her in the shoulder. Well, she was alive.

I tackled him, and he threw me off. I swung the sword and he ducked. He kicked my feet out from under me, and I hit the ground. My sword shut off, and became just a handle.

"Ohh, did I break your little toy?" He said tauntingly. He darted to Katerina, and ripped his spear from her shoulder. She made a sound only dying creatures make. I thought he would stab her again, but he just laughed. "I'll let the radiation finish her off." He turned and began to walk away. I sprung up to him, my sword handle in hand. I wraped my other arm around his neck and whispered, "You're a failure, Perry." He made a growling sound and began to turn. I jammed my finger onto the button to open the sword and it shot out straight through his stomach. He began to scream, and hit me in the head, before falling to the ground. I got wobbly and soon followed after him.

When I awoke, Katerina was breathing heavy and Perry was gone. I got up, feeling the huge bruise on my head, before running to her. I was horrified. She had blood all over her shoulder, and her whole right arm was a grey color, and her skin was starting to tear away.

"Noo! You have to live! I let this happen! It's all my fault!" The tears invaded my eyes, and dripped onto her face. I knelt beside her, and took her left hand. She looked at me, and her chest bucked. I knew the radiation was making it's way to her heart. I suddenly registered the sun's position. It was nearly down for the day. Katerina had been suffering for hours. I felt like I'd been kicked in the stomach. She sucked in a breath, and spoke.

"Can you do something for me?" She said in a raspy voice.

"Anything, I will do anything!" I said through the sobs.

"Kiss me." She whispered. I looked her in the eyes, and pressed my lips to her. I kissed her more passionately than I'd ever kissed anyone. I don't know how long we stayed there, but it felt like time had stopped. Every twinge of cold vanished from my body, and I felt warm. I wish the moment never came to an end, but it did.

She started screaming. I pulled off her lips, and I reached my other hand out as if to catch her last breath. Her eyes fell dark, and her head fell to the side with a trickle of blood from her mouth. Her canon fired and I felt so alone.

Little flakes of snow started to fall from the sky, a few landed on her face, and she looked like a princess. I took her weapons and her/my jacket from her. At the last minute I took her belt, just in case. The snow was starting to sit on her face instead of melt off it. I closed her eye lids and blew her a kiss. I took a few steps away across the frozen ground, and the hovercraft appeared. I zipped the jacket on; it still smelled like her; sweet, like honey. The sun was nearly gone now. The anthem played and Perry appeared, followed by her. Then she was gone, and I decided to win this for her.

Sorry this was short. I couldn't think of any better way to end the chapter. Thus this concludes the Caden/Katerina Romance. Now Perry's gone as well. This was quite an exciting chapter. Now where down to the final 10. I want to congradulate ever tribute that is still alive. The sponor items now cost 50points more than their orginal cost. Tell me what you thought of this. Oh yeah, and if there are any alliances you want to see, just let me know!
