I'm leaving, I can't stay here anymore. It's obvious he's chosen her. Of course he's chosen her, even the Capitol people were swooning over her. But its fine now, I'm nothing to do with them, the careers, I'm going it alone, i can do this, i have to. He's chosen her. I don't know how Marvel copes, all I know is, I can't...
It's a good job they're deep sleepers. I managed to fill 3 backpacks with supplies and leave, without them stirring. Typical, really .So sure no-one will attack. I hope they go after the girl from District 12, the one on fire. At least she'll put up a fight, so will the boy.. He's there, with the careers, pretending to be one, pretending he wants to kill her. He doesn't, I know. I could see the fear in his eyes, every time we talked about going after her. He is there to protect her... The others swallowed his story of how, saying he loved her was just a lie, so it would be easier to kill her .I never. But i never told, i never will, because I'd do the same for Cato, if we were the underdogs.
I don't know where I'm going, or what I'm doing. But I don't look back. I must have subconsciously wandered into the wheat fields on the other side of the lake, knowing that if the careers come after me, they will think I've gone to the woods. I walk further into the fields, that seem endless, then fall to the ground, I'm too tired and broken to walk. All I want to do is cry, but I can't. No doubt every camera and all the eyes in Panem are watching me, wondering what on earth I'm doing, but I won't let them know. I find myself falling asleep on some trampled wheat.
It takes me until morning to realize what the wheat means, I was too tired to realize before. I shoot up like a bolt and searched the horizon, nothing. Whoever was here is gone, or hiding. I gather my things together and eat and apple and some crackers. I am about to go into my bag for more food when I realize these backpacks are my only source of food, at least until I find out how to eat this wheat, or if it is edible or not. I mean, I've only ever heard Glimmer and Marvel talk about it, I've never seen it before. I decide to be more careful with my food, even if today i will be so hungry.
I get up and walk, and walk, as far as I dare. The wheat fields are surprisingly peaceful. Unlike what I imagine the careers base to be like. I stop at a small pond to rest and drink, when I hear the rustling. I jump up and retrieve the only weapons I could get from the careers base, my knifes. That's when I see him. As big as ever. Thresh. I thought he was going to attack me, but he stood there, like a statue. Then I seen it, the panic stricken look strained on his hard face. He thinks I am with the careers, that we were here to get him.
