Earthquake
The cold creeps in and I can't sleep; it's too cold to sleep and I'm still shocked with the fact that I killed someone and that Andy is dead. I keep looking at the picture of Finnick and my heart always skips a beat. I love him but I'm finding it hard to stay alright, I keep feeling as if I don't want to continue. Then all of a sudden I feel the tree start to shake, gradually getting faster and bigger until I have to clutch onto the tree for my dear life. The bag and all my supplies fall out the tree and I know I'll be next. Forty meters is too high to fall from without dying. I hold on tighter. I hear something whoosh past, it sounds like water. Like the waves from District Four. The tree is still shaking and I'm still terrified despite the calming noises that remind me of home.
The wave is getting higher and coming at a faster speed, I see some people being dragged away by the current, the muffled screams from underwater. A cannon shoots and then another. Three of us left. Water splashes up on me even though I'm so high up and just now do I get the full perspective the of actual size of the wave. I'm going to have to jump; I've got more chance of surviving if I'm not dragged down so I do. The cold water hits my skin and the gravity pulls me down. I push myself back up to the top to see that I've already moved a couple of hundred metres. It makes me feel sick that the Capitol could do this, but they made twenty four kids fight to the death against each other so it wasn't a big shock. I can't think like this though, I have to surviveā¦
