HIIIIIIII YOU FACES! BY THE WAY THATS FOR THE REVIEWS PEOPLE!
EVES POV
Lover Boy had killed the girl from 8. I guess that he wasn't as kind as he seemed. Or he was just so in love with Katniss Everdeen that he would do anything to keep her safe. People do crazy things things for love. I never understood it.
I always cried when a Tribute died. I didn't know them, but they were still alive. They had family back at home. They might have had friends waiting for them. A lover or their parents. And then, just like that, they were gone.
FINCHES POV
I looked in the sky. The Capitol anthem played and the face of the girl from District 8 shone in the sky. Great, another innocent persons life taken from them. I thought sarcastically.
Seth was probably still looking for me. I climbed up in a tree and looked down below. There was no one. I was concealed form everyone. I ate some of my food, tied myself into the tree and went to sleep.

Finch said a voice. I was standing in the Arena, out of my tree. Where was my pack? I began to panic.
Finch said the voice again.
"Who's there?" I called. My eyes widened when I saw Drew step out from behind a tree. He wasn't covered in blood, like the last time I saw him.
"I... How... I thought you were...gone," I managed to get out.
"I am dead, but I can visit you in your dreams. That's what Florence's friend, who she killed in the games, does," said Drew. That's what Florence meant when she said that her friend kept reminding her of what she had done. I guess she wasn't as crazy as I thought she was.
"So, why are you here, exactly?" I asked.
"Just to tell you that Eve is okay. She misses you more that anything, but she made some new friends. They care about her," he said.
I smiled. I was so glad that Eve had made more friends. I was worried sick about her.
"So why are you the one telling me this?" I asked Drew.
"I'm kind of a messenger right now," he said.
"Well thank you," I said and gave him a hug.
"Keep fighting, Finch. Don't let them win," he said and I woke up.

What on Earth had just happened?
I was almost totally sure that Drew talking to me was just a dream. Just my mind remembering Drew. Just my mind trying to reassure me that Eve was safe. These Games were driving me insane after just two days. But there was a part of me that told me that what had just happened was not just my mind tricking me.
I climbed down from the tree and began to search for more food. The food in my pack wasn't going to last me forever. I found some berries and roots. I placed them carefully in my pack. I would dry the fruits and roots, later.
I began to walk back to a tree to hide again, but then I froze. I saw movement in the corner of my eye. I whipped around and saw Peeta with a knife, pointed right at me. I looked at him.
"You wouldn't kill me," I said.
"You over estimate my character, Finch," he said but had a pained look in his eyes that he quickly hid. He must still be with the Careers. They were all probably tracking people down. I needed to try and talk him out of this. Peeta was much bigger that me. He could easily kill me. If worst comes to worst, I might be able to outrun him, but the running would alert the other Careers, who were probably close by.
"Why would you kill me? What's the point?" I asked.
"I... I need to keep Katniss safe. I need to make the Careers think that I'm one of them. I need to kill you because I love her!" said Peeta.
"Good luck with that, Lover Boy," I said. But I was a little hurt. My life still had value. Peeta took a step forward, the knife still pointed at me. I would take the chance. There were better odds of me surviving if I ran. So I did.
I turned around and I sprinted. Peeta came crashing after me. He wasn't very agile and he wasn't as fast as I was. I climbed up a tree as fast as I could. Peeta looked at me from its base, biting his lip.
I glared down at him. I hate him. I hate him. I HATE HIM! I HATE THE CAPITOL! I HATE PRESIDENT SNOW! I HATE THESE DAMN GAMES!
YEAH, SO PEETA'S SLIGHTLY EVIL... BUT HE WAS EVIL FOR LOVE? ? JUST DON'T RANT TO ME ABOUT HOW I'M DESTROYING PEETA'S CHARACTER, BECAUSE I'M NOT! I'M SHOWING HOW MUCH HE LOVES KATNISS! HE LOVES HER ENOUGH TO KILL SOMEONE! REVIEWS PLEASE! STAY PIEFACEINGLY!
