And the last chapter proved my point...practically no one reviews.
third POV
Ivy and Katniss ran until they reached a stream. There wasn't as sound of pursuit, and they slowly began to relax.
"Hey beauty. Came to finish me off? I had thought that you would have arrived sooner though." A voice called out. Ivy tensed, but Katniss reconized the voice.
"Peeta?!"
"The one and only."
The two girls looked around, but didn't see him.
"Look down."
They did, and jumped. They could make out a face covered by mud. It was rather a masterpiece. The color varied slightly here and there. It seemed as if sime were drier, others in the light.
Immediately. The two started to work. One brought in water while the other washed him off.
Fnally, they were finished. Ivy went away to hunt, and left the two in peace.
"So, why did you team up with Rose?" Peeta asked,
" She isn't Rose Snow. She is Ivy Green. At least, I think so." Katniss answered.
"What?" Katniss explained.
"She used to hunt with Gale and me. Then, one day, she disappeared. It turns out, she tried to kill the president, but ended up as a plaything. They trained her and put her in the games."
As she finished speaking, trumpets blasted through the air.
"Ladies and Gentlemen! I welcome all of you to a feast. However, this will be different. Rfht now, all of you need something. That something wll be given out during the feast! This great opourtunity will occur at sunset today. That is all."
Peeta grabbed Katniss's hand.
"Don't you dare go. I know you discovered the blood poisoning. You're rather easy to read around me. And you suck at telling lies so don't try."
Katniss didn't reply. Peeta stared at her and said, "Promise me."
She nodded slowly and he sighed. As he was about to demand her to swear to it, a little whistle rang out.
"Sorry. Did I interupt something?" Ivy's voice rang out.
"No, nothing." Katniss quickly said. Peeta glared, but didn't say anything. A nod would have to be enough.
"Alrighty then. Here, let's eat. Then, you guys can go make lovey dovey eyes at each other." She said as she brought out two cooked birds. They ate in silence.
Soon after, Peeta got sleepy. He yawned.
Slowly, his eyes dropped.
"That's weirds... The birds were kind of sweet. Like honey. Or syrup. Wai-" His eyes flashed in apprehension, but it was too late.
Katniss looked at Ivy. She shrugged.
"Sleep syrup. Got a delivery just now. Yes, I knew you were going to the feast." She quickly added. Katniss nodded.
"Thanks."
"No problem. We should probably get going."
"We?"
"Yep. I may not like him, but he seems improtant to you. Let's go."
