Yay~ Two reviews
Third POV
"Lower the tables in 60...59...58..."
The countdown started. Seneca watched everything with a satisfied smile.
The games this year had a lot of drama. From the District Two girl's revenge, to the District Twelve lovebirds. Not to mention the messed up girl.
There were only six tributes left. The feast was sure to get rid of at least one of them.
"3...2...1...Lower them!"
The tables clicked into place, the bags set closely to each other.
There was a moment of tense anticipation, and then the two girls from Twelve dashed put, immediatly followed by the other tributes.
The gamemakers watched the screen play out the action.
Clove headed toward Ivy and they began to fight again. At that moment, Katniss grabbed the bag only for Cato to tackle her. He pinned her to the ground with his knee. He raised up his knife and attampted to stab Katniss's heart.
Katniss pushed against Cato's hand, but only slowed down his motion. Cato grinned and then shaved harder.
The knife broke her skin and started to penetrate flesh when Katniss made a desparate attempt. She opened her mouth and bit down on Cato's hand. Hard.
Cato shrieked and let go on the knife, which was grabbed by Katniss. She immediatley tried to stab the distracted Cato, but failed when he rolled away.
The two stood up and faced each other. Cato's eyes were lit with fury and pain;Katniss's were fueled by determination and a hint of defiance and fear.
There was some stomping. As one, they turned to see Thresh move away with his pack and District Two's. Cato growled.
"I'll finish you up quickly." He snarled. Katniss sprinted towards Ivy.
Their battle was drawing to a conclusion. Both were bleeding profoundly. Both had a knife in one hand.
"Ivy, let's go!" Katniss shouted. Ivy turned to run and Clove took the chance given by Ivy's slight flaw in defense.
She ran at Ivy and threw the knife, while taking out another. Ivy dodged but was then stabbed by Clove, who had missed a vital spot.
The same could not have been said for Ivy. When Katniss had called to her, she had formed a plan. Blinded by grief, the other girl wouldn't have noticed the trap.
She had prepared for the first knife. She had readied a knife to stab the oncoming girl. She did not, however, expect the other knife that Clove had hidden in her sleeve.
The two were locked in an embrace of death. Two knives connected them. One in Ivy's left arm, the other in Clove's throat.
The light faded from Clove's eyes. Two things happened. A cannon sounded as Clove slumped to the ground. Then Cato's scream of grief.
"Run!" Katniss shouted. She had broken out of the shock first. Ivy shook her hrad, and quickly followed. She held her hand over the knife that was still in her waist and ran.
