Sorry about the wait…again, and the amount of violence in the last chapter, I read it, and it seemed kind of lame compared to the other stories on here…
Cato's POV
I walk back to camp feeling triumphant, until I remember that damn Fire Girl blew up all our food and I'm going to have to go hunting…again.
"Hungry?" I hear someone say, and then throw something at me. I get my sword and look around before I take a look at what was thrown. A piece of wheat? What the hell, that's not Career food!
"Show yourself, or I'll do it myself" I growl gripping my sword again.
"Doubt it," a singsong voice said, this time from behind me. I turn around, no one's there.
"You wouldn't kill off your only ally, would you?" I turn around again and again.
"I don't have anymore allies. I'm going solo," I say, on the tip of destruction.
"Oh really?"
"Yeah." I feel someone tap me on the shoulder and I turn around to almost pierce…Clove.
"Hey Cato," she laughs, "What are you doing?"
"…" This is weird. I'm hallucinating. My foot still hurts a bit and the pain must have gone to my mind or something.
"You're not alive. You're dead. You died," I say slowly.
"No, that was Lover Boy. I saw redhead, and you can hear Everdeen's sobs from here," she says. I listen. You really can. So if that cannon really was Peeta at the feast…Clove really is here right now! Now I'm angry.
"What the hell Clove! This isn't hide and seek! Seriously, it's the top four and all you can think about is a game?" She just stands there smiling the whole time.
"What?"
"I was just thinking, playing hide and seek in the wheat field was fun."
"Yeah, yeah. Clove the badass spy, save it I already know how good I am. I'm going hunting," I say, having enough of her stupid kid games. I walk away towards the sobs of District 12. She just catches up to me. I walk faster.
"It wasn't much of a fight, if you ask me."
"Which I didn't," I mutter.
"Didn't see much, but I heard a lot," she smirks.
"Go back to camp," I sputter. "You bet redhead's gonna try to steal our firewood."
"Uh huh. And what exactly are you going to catch with a sword?"
"Dinner."
"Let's see how that goes. I'm gonna get us real food." Finally she leaves. It's good to have her back
Sorry about the confusion of the cannon at the feast and stuffs. Happy 4th of July everyone!
