Life is so unfair. All because of some stupid bugs I might not even live to see the top ten. We're not going hunting today, the spiders destroyed some supplies, and poisoned some food and we have to burn some of them. Don't get me wrong we still have too much stuff but we just have to burn some of the useless stuff. I'm sitting in the cornucopia; ever since that poison entered my bloodstream I've not been feeling well. Alexis is trying her best to patch me up, disinfectants, she drained out some pus for me as well. But I've still been feeling sick. I estimate I'll be dead by tomorrow if something doesn't happen.

I'm just laying the cornucopia, I don't want to die, I only got one kill, I'm supposed to win these games, I still need to avenge Whitney, there's so many loose ends I need to tie up. I can't die yet, all because of some inferior bugs... And then it happens, I hear beeping from a parachute, who's gotten sponsored now? Usually careers don't need sponsors since we always have stuff, but maybe this is a special occasion? The parachute lands right outside the cornucopia.

Mitch goes to it and opens it. "Percy, it's for you!" He calls out. I groan as I reluctantly stand up and see what's inside. I see a note from my mentor.

This should heal you up for the duration of the games. This was expensive, it's a good thing you have a lot of fans.

I open it to see a needle, filled with a sort of green liquid. I look at it with hope. "I'm, I'm saved." I stutter as I grab the needle and jab it in my arm and push the green liquid in my bloodstream. Within a few seconds the world goes dark and I pass out.

Me and Kim have been wandering around quite a bit, we've been trying to avoid trouble as best we could. I don't think Kim is fit for fighting, she'd die; the careers, the big boy from eleven, Griffin was his name I believe, even that boy from seven, Cyrus looks very dangerous as well, we need to avoid those guys. I've only got a sword that I don't really know how to use, I hold it tightly, as if it's taped to my hand or something. Kim lacks a good weapon, however in terms of nourishment we're set. We found a small pond yesterday, slept by it, refilled out canteens as well then headed out. Kim knows all the good berries and plants somehow (probably learned them). She has a really good memory and she's really smart, it will definitely be useful.

We continue walking down cave tunnels, it's like we're in some sort of labyrinth, that's Kim's theory. The whole arena is an underground labyrinth with different sections when you reach a certain point, like when we walked through some dark murky water, it was like we had to cross an ocean. When we crossed that then it was back into the maze like structure.

As we continue walking I hear beeping, I look up and see a parachute land next to me. Oh we got sponsors! I don't know how, neither of us got high training scores, we don't have any kills or done anything impressive. I open the container, it's from District three. "Oh loaves of bread!" She exclaims with a rather happy expression. She smiles and makes a quick count of the loaves. "Okay that's twelve loaves we have, so how about six each?" I nod. I take one, it's still so warm in my hand. I quickly finish that loaf after days of eating nothing but edible plants I finally have something warm in me.

We finish out loaves of bread. "Okay I think we should rest here, we'll continue walking after we've rested." I say, we have been walking for hours after all. Kim nods her head in agreement, her mouth still full with bread.

Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep. Beep.

I know that sound, it's a sponsor. I'm leaning against the tunnel walls when the box lands in front of me. Ever since I killed Whitney the full reality of the games hit me. I volunteered for this. I can't complain. I am simply a kid who has to kill other kids so he can survive. She was my first kill, she was cocky and arrogant, she probably had a family back home who believes she would come back. I crushed their hopes and dreams with my actions. Well I can't complain now. I open the box to find a packet of crackers, some meat and five feet of bandages. I must have a lot of sponsors. I'm the underdog from seven. I'm the strong rogue who only looks out for himself. That's what they see me as.

But that's not completely true.

I love my own district partner, one of the reasons I volunteered was for her. She may have ditched me, rejected me but she's the only person who ever showed me any kindness in district seven. I had no friends, no girlfriends, no siblings. Not even my own mother loved me. But Demi was different, when we were younger, she was my friend, she actually cared about me. As she got older she met new people, made new friends and I was kind of phased out, not able to fit in with her new friends until she basically just shut me out. But I still loved her.

Love is blind I guess.

I then sigh as I begin munching on the meat, I'm not going to finish it all, eat half then save the crackers and meat for later. "Thanks you guys." I say as I put my new found food and supplies in my backpack and proceed to walk forwards.
