I yawn as I stretch out my arms and legs, I'm in my sleeping bag that me and Ari have to share. He managed to snag one from the cornucopia. We've both been in a pretty depressing mood since the bloodbath started. We've both lost our district partners so early on. I know it's probably affecting Ari the worst since he was actually in an alliance with Britan, he actually wanted to protect her unlike me. I ditched Millie from the start, from the moment she wet her pants at the reaping I instantly discarded her, she wouldn't have been any help to me, despite how cruel it sounds we must all make the smart decisions if we ever expect to get home.
And I hate it.
"David, I-I think we should keep moving, I don't like the feeling of these tunnels." Ari says to me as he gets out of the sleeping bag. I nod. "Guess you're right." I say. I grab my crossbow that has a loaded bolt in it. I grab my bag that has another eight bolts, and an empty canteen in it, I hope I got some sponsors with the funny angle. I made the whole crowd laugh during my interview with my jokes, surely that got me some sponsors right, especially with my training score. A ten isn't something you just wrinkle your nose at.
After about an hour of walking we're not in a narrow tunnel anymore, in fact we see a passage that seems to be glowing purple. I continue towards it and feel I've stepped on something pointy, I look down and see I'm stepped in crystals, the space isn't narrow anymore, it's open, it's as if I'm in some sort of giant crystal plain, some of the crystals are glowing purple some are just dim they seem to be sharp, I pick one up and bring it across the palm of my hand, it draws blood. Some places on the floor there are no crystals, it's only a sort of wide path where there are no crystals. The only reason my feet are not cut is because of my shoes. Then it hits me. We can use these as weapons. Along with the crystals I can hear splashing, rapid, it's a... water source.

I'm such a horrible boy. I'm a career, I'm not like these guys. I thought I could do this just because I trained but I just, lack the mindset. I killed someone. I killed a little boy just because it's what the Capitol wants me to do. A few of the careers chuckled and gave me a pat on the back and congratulated me and I just took the compliments when on the inside I didn't feel good. His eyes, his tears. I attacked him with my fists and made him bleed then I axed him, mercilessly and now I feel like a horrible person.
Because I am.
Whitney and Alexis laughed throughout the night, when Whitney killed Rockie and Whitney was proud of herself, I just felt sorry for that girl. I'll never understand these people. I simply stay sitting, my back against the wall as we start to split up food. I decide to take the fruit and bread and slowly munch on it. I never should've volunteered. I'm deep in thought as I continue munching on the food.
"Gloss?" Alexis asks me, I didn't hear her.
"Oh what did you say? I didn't catch that." I say, trying my best to keep a cheerful voice, it convinces them.
"I'm saying how many kills do you think we should aim for before we go back to the cornucopia?"
"I-I dunno, w-we'll just take them as t-they come, we can't force it a-after all." I stutter.
Alexis rolls her eyes at me and turns back to Whitney and they continue talking.
What unfortunate soul will be running into us today?

Me and Demi need a plan of action, we can't just wander aimlessly, she has an axe and I don't which sucks. I need an axe, I can't fight without it, I'll die without it, we'll have a plan of action, we travelled quite far away from the cornucopia after all. Demi sighs she leads the way, the axe raised and ready. I've never been much of a leader but I know with an Axe I can work wonders, I didn't go through all the practice with Demi just for nothing.
"Hey Demi, look I'm tired of being useless and I need an axe like you, how about we I dunno sneak back to the cornucopia and try and steal some supplies?" I suggest. Demi stops dead in her tracks and thinks for it a bit. She turns to me and grins. "That's an excellent idea, however there are careers guarding that base, we'll need a plan or something." She replies. She's got me there, but I'm smart and Demi can fight. "Don't worry, just leave the planning to me."
