We spent all day looking for Ari, we heard two canons, one of them could've been his but I refuse to believe it, me and David continued searching, he couldn't have gone far right? Surely he couldn't have died, we're an alliance, we're protecting each other, there's no way he died. He couldn't have. When we got tired we had to stop, we suspected it was getting dark now, we would be able to tell if he was dead or not when the anthem went up. Me and David are sitting on the cold, hard gritty floor, sick with worry when the sound of the anthem instantly draws our attention to the sky.

First we see the girl from two, that was such a shock, the girl who beheaded Ben. I'm so glad she's dead, she deserved to die, I know it's terrible but she deserved it. Ben saved me, he shouldn't have died like that.

And then...

Ari Walter, District five

Then the anthem finishes its final strands and then nothing. Me and David are just left back in the darkness, neither of us saying a word to the other. I refuse to cry, I won't look weak. Ari, the boy who saved my life twice from the spider, who comforted me when I needed it, and he's now gone. I try my best not to sob. "Er, I'll take first watch, you- you should sleep." David says.

I nod and curl up in a ball, I don't know how I'll sleep tonight but I'll try.

After seeing the anthem I'm depressed, not because Ari and Alexis meant anything to me. They meant absolutely nothing to me. It's because it's the final ten, and now the games start to get really bloody, I'm going to have to separate from Ayakon soon, or one of us might die, we knew that us being together like this couldn't last forever. Ever since that incident at the cornucopia we've been trying to avoid other tributes as best as we could and we've been doing that pretty well. We haven't been in a fight since but surely the Game Makers will want to change that.

I've still had my glaive ever since the games started, although I haven't had to use it much. Honestly I'm happy I haven't killed anyone yet, but I know that if I want a chance to go home I'll have to, at least one but I don't want to, but would I if I had to? Ayakon brutally murdered Patricia because she threatened to slice and dice me, I know Ayakon has quite the temper though. So I decide to just look at the ceiling of the giant hell cave I've been trapped in for the past week and a bit.

"I'll take first watch Aya," I say to her, I can tell how tired she is, she stayed up most of the night last night, paranoid and not wanting to go, it's only fair that she gets her sleep. She doesn't really argue and only yawns, nods and tries her best to sleep.

The final ten. Well I'll be damned.
