Strawberries

Alexis Rain-District 1

I knew there was someone nearby but I think I could kill that tribute that was getting closer, or maybe it was just me being paranoid. Paranoid that was always me. I jumped at the slight of sounds triggering a few memories that I didn't want to ponder on it anymore.

"Do you hear that?" I hissed to Nolan, who really was very annoying to be around with. All he ever did was bragging of how much he was going home while the others perished. All I really wanted to do was put an arrow into him and stop listening to his ramblings which I wish could happen but sadly was not the time for the careers to go the separate ways. It was much too soon and it wouldn't do; not with almost ⅓ of us are almost gone.

"I could hear it miles away," Nolan responded, flexing his muscles a lot.

I went on forward, knocking an arrow ready to strike if prepared to be which is probably a smart idea but that was my opinion though.

"Well, well, well," the boy from 9 that was a nuisance to our side sneered. "Who should I kill first?"

He spun around and threw a knife at Nolan who apparently was behind me which made Nolan cough. I paid no mind to him.

Nolan Argent-District 2

I wasn't supposed to die at least not yet. This wasn't fair. I was supposed to win like all district 2 tributes should but no that blasted brat from nine killed me and I haven't got a kill yet.

I grabbed my sword, gripping it with a grip I managed to had with the blood flowing freely. I reckon it wouldn't be too long before I died but I wouldn't let myself die without a kill. I swung it around, trying to control the blood-loss but I was slowly losing the battle.

I swung my sword before I fell to the ground thinking about all the arrogant moments I done and how I swore I would come back but I guess that didn't matter.

Mollie Plover-District 7

Bronwyn, Silvia and I huddled in a cave while we were hiding in the forest which really wasn't too bad though, at least from my perspective. We were away from tributes and at least we couldn't really get hurt. We avoided everyone and one of us kept watch; which was as peaceful as it could get. We were just three young ones wanting to survive but it may be impossible but at least it was better than being out there.

"Is there any food?" Bronwyn asked.

I checked inside the bag; finding matches, an empty water bottle, a coil of rope and a first aid kit which wasn't much. Silvia grabbed the bag from what Emmy had of being close by or at least that's what she told us once we were caught up.

"There's more matches, a thin blanket, a few knives but no food," She commented. "How are we going to survive though?"

"One of us could go hunting?" I suggested.

"That's our best bet," Bronwyn said. "Mollie, do you want to go since you have some experience with an axe?"

"Sure," I said, I grabbed the axe I managed to pick up before we fled away. It was kinda heavy but at least I knew how to work it though; which was a good thing.

I headed out, making sure my footsteps didn't echo so that I didn't die so soon not when I had a fighting chance. I had to go back home, I promised Lee and Mom that I will. I can't break that promise but not all thirteen year olds make it out alive; very rare they do.

I found a few berries that I wasn't sure but I dropped them better be safe and sorry and I turned around to find a guy behind me, his weapon drawled. Whatever it was though but I couldn't tell of what it might be.

I threw my axe at him with all the muscles I had because there was definitely no way I was going to die. Not this soon in going into the games. He didn't dodge quickly enough but he died soon after leaving me in horror of what I've just done. I guess it was be killed, or kill the opponent no other option.

I caught sight of a parachute, landing right beside me which I picked it up and, Inside is a carton of strawberries for you and your allies to eat. Keep Silvia safe-Finch. Strawberries? I never really had much of them as District 7 never really had any and I ate a few in the Capitol, snacking on it as it was sweet and juicy.

"I got food," I said once I arrived back in the cave, tossing the axe towards the corner where it previously was. "A carton of strawberries, your brother sent it for us, Silvia."

Silvia let out a small laugh, "He would, at least we have enough food to last us a few days though…" she trailed off.

"How many are there?" Bronwyn asked.

Silvia oped the carton to reveal a bunch of strawberries which I estimated about 21 or so; I hoped I was accurate though.

"There is 21, a perfect number that could last for about 7 days if we eat one a day," Silvia announced.

"I killed a tribute out there," I stated quietly.

"It was self-defense," Bronwyn tried to reassure but it didn't help. "Let's eat a strawberry."

We agreed and took one, saving the rest later. The taste was as good from the Capitol; all sweet, delicious and juicy.

54 Place: Nolan Argent killed by Cyrus Tormius

Nolan, I really hated him. He was to cocky and arrogant and I guess he met his end only a day into the games because of Cyrus. I really don't think he would have gone much farther but he was too arrogant to think that he would be unable to perish and win the Hunger Games as he continuously boast about it a lot. Thank you 1million for submitting him. Besides District 2 was the only district that didn't suffer yet.

53 Place: Alexis Rain killed by Nolan Argent

Alexis, I really wanted you to go far but sadly Nolan wasn't going down until he killed someone and he sworded you because you were the closet person. I'm sorry that you died though and you will be missed dearly. I loved your character and I'm happy that you would be happy now even though your life was cut short though. I loved writing you. Thank you Crystal Heart for her.

52 Place: Cameron Axion axed by Mollie Plover

Cameron, you were originally was going to survive but apparently I can't control it, what you said at the Interviews really ticked the President off but apparently those with rebel occurrences never win the Hunger Games much less survive them. You were an easy tribute to write as it's easy of writing someone rebellious. I doubt you would have lasted much longer anyways. Thank you Norbus95 for him.

Sponsoring system is open, send in whatever you want. Is ent in those strawberries because why not. We're almost to the 48 tribute mark which is good. Less tributes but still a lot.
