Hi! Sorry for not updating but I have had no ideas and I've been quite busy, and I got the best idea but its in the end and I can't tell you, it's a SECRET! Byeeeeeeeeeeee, enjoyyyyyyyyyyer. Don't forget to Review!

Soon we were all at the cornucopia, listening to Katniss. "This entire arena seems to be laid off like a clock. With a new threat every hour. But they stay only within their wedge.

It all starts with the lightning. Then blood rain fog and monkeys. That's the first four hours. At ten that big wave heads from over there."

Wow, maybe these Game Makers were smarter than I thought.

"Well the tail points at twelve." Said Peeta.

"That's where the lightning strikes at noon and midnight." Said Katniss; "strikes where?" asked Beetee.

"That big tree."

I looked and indeed there was a big tree sticking out over the jungle, higher than all the other trees.

"I never thought the Game Makers could be that smart," I said.

Wires continued her ramblings and sat down near the edge of the rocky surface.

She found it hard to listen to them, so much was happening, I wish I could just take a long nap, she shook the thought from her head and started to focus on the words coming from Katniss's mouth.

"From ten to 11 is the wave, I don't know about everything else, did you guys see anything?"

"Nothing but blood" I said.

"It doesn't matter, as long as we know what sector will be acting, we'll be safe." Said Peeta.

"Yeah relatively speaking" said Skulduggery.

And then I heard the gasp, and became aware that Wiress was not singing anymore, I spun around and saw Gloss slicing Wiress's throat. The same man that attacked me in this very spot, he grinned at us. And that's when the arrow hit his chest and he fell backwards into the water below. I turned and saw Katniss with her bow out and loading another arrow, damn. She had good aim.

And then a girl came running out from behind the rocks, towards Katniss, Cashmere I think she was. Johanna pushed Katniss out of the way and buries her axe in Cashmere's chest. I froze, but quickly brought my composure back and saw another man running towards us screaming. Brutus.

I brought my sword out and prepared myself. Finnick and Peeta were fighting him and apparently losing, Brutus ran behind a piece of the metal that was covering this place, I started forwards running after him with Skulduggery close behind me.

I had only made it halfway until the ground started shaking.

No, turning. I stumbled and fell, as did the others, I clung on trying to stop myself from slipping and falling into the water below.

Luckily I had experience from hanging off several buildings.

"Valkyrie!"

I looked up and saw Skulduggery a few meters away, reaching out to me, I reached out but he was too far, I heard rattling and saw boxes and knifes coming towards me, I did my best dodging the knifes but a few clipped me.

But the boxes were impossible to dodge.

Whenever one hit me it made me slip closer and closer to the edge, my hand were bloody and trembled. I felt I couldn't hold on any longer, and then it started to stop.

I felt stiff and sore, I just wanting to see my family.

I tried standing but I fell to the ground again, Skulduggery came running towards me and helped me up.

"Are you alright?" he asked.

"Just peachy," I said.

And then we were off, meeting up with the rest of the group, and going back to the beach.

We all stood under a shaded area, close to the beach, and the jungle. We were all recovering from what had happened; no doubt it was the Game Makers doing. Who knew that they could control the arena, they just keep surprising.

The silence was unbearable, "so how many of us is there left? I mean besides us," I asked.

Peeta answered, "Brutus and Enobaria, maybe Chaff, just those three."

"They know they're outnumbered, I doubt they'll attack again. Were safe on the beach" said Finnick

"What do we do? Hunt them down?" asked Johanna

"I don't think that's a very good idea," said Skulduggery, "well do you have any ideas?" asked Johanna, again.

Skulduggery stayed silent, and I sighed.

And then I heard screaming; it was the voice of a little girl, screaming for help.

"Prim! Prim!" she started to realise that the voice was calling out for Katniss, she suddenly remembered the talk they had had on the balcony, she had said her sisters name was Prim. But how was she here, it couldn't be real.

Katniss suddenly got up and ran, we picked up our weapons and followed her, calling out her name.

And then I heard something else, another voice, two voices. They sounded familiar, and then it dawned on her. It was her parents.

"Stephanie! Help us Stephanie!" panic consumed my body and I found myself running faster.

"Mum! Dad!" I yelled, I kept running, searching for the source of the voice and then someone grabbed me from behind.

I struggled trying to get out of their grip, but they were too strong, I turned my head to see Skulduggery holding me back, I kept struggling and yelled "no! Let me go, I need to help them!"

I fell to the ground and he fell with me still holding me, "its not them Valkyrie, its not them, they are not here." I turned and hugged him burying my face in his chest as he stroked my head.

My parent's screams became muffled, and I tried my best to ignore them.

Soon they stopped and it was silent.

I looked up to see Peeta, Johanna and Beetee banging on some sort of invisible wall, and on the other side were Katniss and Finnick also banging on the wall.

She then noticed the swarm of birds flying around them, it looked like all of hell had broken lose.

I continued hugging Skulduggery and I noticed for the first time that tears were streaking down my face.

I didn't bother wiping them away, I just held on to Skulduggery, as if my life depended on it.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but the invisible wall had disappeared and the birds were gone, Katniss and Finnick looked traumatized, whatever had happened behind that wall must have been horrible, and she didn't plan on finding out anytime soon.

After several "are you Okays" from Skulduggery, they went to join the group.

"Your fiancé's right." Said Johanna

"The whole country loves your sister. If they torture her or do anything to her, forget the districts there would be riots in the damn Capitol."

Then looked up swinging her axe around.

"Hey how does that sound Snow? What if we set your backyard on fire? You know you can't put everybody in here!"

She looked back down at us with the same smirk she always had, everyone was silent, looking at her.

"What? He can't hurt me, there's no one left that I love."

I started at her, troubled by her words.

We went back to our spots near the beach and settled in.

The next morning was the same, nothing, absolutely nothing. We all just waited for some kind of miracle, and then out of the blue, Beetee speaks.

"I have a plan"

It had all been explained and we were all set for leaving tomorrow, so for now we just relaxed.

The sun had started to set and the sky was filled with colours of pink and purple, it really was beautiful.

"What are you thinking?" I asked Skulduggery who sat next to me also enjoying the sunset.

"Lots of little things," he answered, not turning is head towards me "penny for your thoughts?" she asked, and Skulduggery gave a light laugh.

"I was actually thinking about the Game Makers"

"Oh?"

"Never in my life, have I wanted to torture someone so badly," "now that's poppycock!" Skulduggery suddenly turned his head to look at her, and cocked his head.

"What did you just say?"

"Poppycock!"

"Who says poppycock?!"

"I do!" he was silent for a moment, "you are a very strange person, Valkyrie Cain"

"I know, now can I continue?" he nodded.

"What about Serpine? He killed your family, and almost killed me in fact. You can't just say that you've never wanted to torture someone so badly and then say that about someone else! You're twisting your own words!"

"Right" he said

"Yep"

"But Serpine was a totally different story" I sighed, "of course."

We were silent again, watching as the stars were coming out.

"Valkyrie, you do know that we will get out of here, right?" he suddenly asked, I looked deeply into his eyes, looking for something. I didn't know what, but I looked.

"I know," I said, smiling

More silence, this was becoming a habit, wasn't it?

"Common, lets get some sleep."
