I wake up to the birds chirping and for a moment I forget where I am. Then it hits me like a slap in the face when I realise I'm not in twelve. I'm in the god damn games. Well Jason's up and sharpening weponds.

"You're up! Finally! You were asleep for two days! And your not an easy sleeper. You were kicking and thrashing screaming for someone to run..." Jason says looking slightly worried.

"Two days!? What did I miss?" I ask, trying to avoid the topic.

"The pair we let go? Yeah they got killed by careers... I saw it happen I hid in a tree and the two from one are together. Umm... Not much else. I nicked some ofthe careers supplies though. They hid some emeregency stuff and they did a bad job at hiding them. We have two whip, swords, knives, water and food. Oh and torches with batteries" Jason replies.

"Thanks for keeping me posted-" Bang. A cannon goes off, another one dead. I hear voices outside. Careers.

"Ha! That guy never stood a chance did he Silver?" Osto says

"Yeah, he was all like, n-no please don't kill me!" Silver replies. Then the two start flirting. Are they serious? So twelve people from the blood bath died. Plus this guy and the other pair. That's 14 dead. 10 left to play.

"You pair really need to shut up! Noone cares! You two are driving me insane! The games is not the time for flirting and kissing for goodness sake!" Someone else says.

"Stop storming off Martial! Just because your parents are rich doesn't mean you can storm off and throw hissy fits!" Angelica shouts. "Osto can we kill him yet? He's getting on my nerves." She whispers.

"Once we picked off the crazy couple from 12 yeah. One of them goes crazy and can kill us all in a matter of seconds, and another is plain dangerous. Come on lets go" Jack says. Ok. We're a target. Good to know. They leave after a while, thankfully. Once we're completly sure that the careers have gone we talk and eat. I'm starving. Two days without food. Not much but still.

"We need to destroy their base." I say aloud. Why do I keep doing that?

"How?" Jason asks

"I dunno but lets see what they've done to protect it." I say grabbing some weponds. "Are you coming?"

"Ok. But I'll replace the stump with a rock so its a bit stronger if anyone sits on it again." He replies. After a couple of minutes he does it and we head off. We hide behind some bushes keeping an eye out for any tibutes that come wandering by. They put all their good stuff in the cornicopia and it seems like they dug a moat around it and left a circle of land around the actual cornicopia with a strip of land for a bridge. But why the moat? I look it and realise it's death water in it. You have to drink it to be affected though I think. I study it more. There's barbed wire right at the edge of the moat. Its all clicking. When you try and jump it you'll cut youself and around the moat so the death water will effect you and kill you in seconds. But there is one way to get past...

"Jason. I have a plan. We're going to steal all their good stuff and light the rest on fire. Simple." I say

"How are we going to get over the death water though?" He asks,

"I'll tell you later." I reply as I get up and walk off. We wander around to get a clue on where we are in the arena. And we're not the only ones with a base. There's a huge tree, taller then the rest that someone's camping out in. It looks like they've set up a camp up high in the branches. I put a finger to my lips singaling to Jason then I start clmbing. I'm gonna raid the place and if anyone's there, 'Kill' them. When I reach the top it seems like anyone who was here has gone on a search for water. There are plenty of edible fruits around here. I look around more. There's a clear plastic sheet for a little roof, a back pack coverd in leaves and other stuff. But first I'm getting the pack. I dig around in it a bit. Nothing too good in here. I leave it be. Anything? Then I spot something on a leaf. Its a huge leaf with writing and drawings on it that was probably carved in with a small knife. Its map of the arena and a list of the tributes districts names and nicknames, with the dead ones crossed off. I roll it up, pluck a different leaf and leave a message from myself.

Hi, thanks for the map and nice place you have here. Here's a spill (its used to get sap, you dig a hole in a tree with a knife, push this in and it comes out like a tap.) to say thanks.

Sky (Girl tribute from twelve.)

I hear Jason do a bird like whistle and beckons me to get down, then runs. I climb down as quick as possible and run. That was too close. Thank goodness they went up the other side of the tree. I reach the base and Jason's there already.

"Get anything good?" He asks

"I got a map of the arena with the tributes." I say handing him the map. He takes a bit of a closer look then me.

"It has peoples bases. Luckily it doesn't have ours." Jason says. "Were's the spill?"

"I lost it. I can make another though." I say getting up and going to get a peice of wood. After half an hour of carving I manage to make a spill and I go out and get some more sap. "Got it." I say handing the bowl to Jason. He dips his fingers in it and puts it on a stone wall the carefully places the map on it. Nice.

"Ok. Here's our base. The careers are roming around here. We need to get over security, grab the stuff, and leave unnoticed with the other stuff burning. Any ideas?"

"I do. We get two large, tall strong sticks, and as much flamable stuff as possible. We run up and jump using the sticks. We come around from behind and kill the person on guard. Grab the good stuff then put on the flammable items and send a flaming wooden arrow at it and run like hell." I say

"Great plan." He says with a half smile.

"I know." I say grinning.
