Hide! I climb higher into the tree and attach myself onto it. Hopefully, they won't find me, maybe if I throw a rock at them they'll die, and I just realised just how unlikely that is, so maybe not. Suddenly, I see them in the space. Baito is looking so, so muscly, he has many other tributes with them. I have to find some way of killing them, maybe. I look down and see Feta is with them, fine. If he wants to team up with jerks so I can kill him then I have no problem with that.
I am suddenly shivering, something's not right. Someone's watching me. Hopefully, they are seriously checking me out, saying how sexy I look in this tree, and not trying to kill me. Just in case if they are though, I lean against the tree with my leg up, twirling my hair, if this is what I gotta do to get the guy then I'll do it. I suddenly see eyes peering at me through a tree, it's Coo. I'm equally relieved and disappointed at the same time. She points upwards. Nevermind about that, I really wanna talk to her about everything!
"Hey Coo! How ya doing? Wanna sit down and have some creme brûlée with me?" I then immediately cover my mouth, now they'll definitely see me, oh great.
She points upwards again and then vanishes into the trees. I think she's trying to tell me to look up. Should I? Either way, Baito and his friend squad will find me soon enough, so it's a risk I should probably take. I look up. Why is everything bad happening to me? There is a tracker-jacker nest right above me, tracker jackers are a bit like wasps, only ten times as deadly, very few survive with more than three. I gotta get out of here, somehow.
"Fancy staying up there, eh?" Baito looks up and says, dang it.
I think about it, maybe I can be friends with Baito, I just need to be honest with him, "yeah! Wanna come up and share some creme brûlée with me?"
He turns to Dimmer from District 1, she is holding some bows and arrows and says, "Shoot her."
Well, so much for being friends, huh, Baito? Turns out this girl cannot shoot to save her life, she misses me over and over again, until she eventually gives up and nudges Baito, as if to say, "you deal with her, if you are so cool!". He sighs and takes out a knife, the same type and brand as mine, and attempts to saw down the tree, the knife would be great for cutting small branches, but it was absolutely useless at sawing the large, thick trunk, and it just breaks. He still hasn't given up though. He now tries to climb up the tree, but he was hopeless at climbing, he moved at about a mile per hour speed. Every time he took one step, I rapidly climbed three more, he was only young, about my age, but he was climbing up like an old granny. He finally gave up completely and shrugged.
"Let her not be an excuse to not camp here. She is unable to move from that stupid tree, we might as well sleep, we can deal with her in the morning." He turns to sleep, but I really wanna desperately make friends with him, and everyone loves a good joke am I right?
"Hey Baito!" I call out, and he turns back to face me. "What time of day is everyone most upset in? The mourning!" I grin, but he gives me a dirty look and focuses again on sleeping.
What does everyone have against jokes these days? After climbing all that way, I am now above the tracker-jacker nest, and I have everything with me in my backpack. What if I saw off the thin branch holding the tracker jackers to kill them all! I am such a dang genius! When everyone is asleep, (no one is staying awake to keep watch, idiots), I manage to break through the branch, letting it fall, watching it go down, the branch believed it could fly, it believed it could touch the sky, only, it doesn't . It lands on Baito's face.
Baito wakes up, and performs the most high pitched baby scream I had ever heard in my life, and I have a younger sister. About three sting him and he is running with his arms flung in the air, followed by Feta. Yes, I got Feta! All the others manage to escape, one had about ten, I doubt he'd make it, however Dimmer had at least fifty on her, she was one hundred percent a goner. As she collapses, the tracker jackers properly eat into her skin before chasing after the others, when they are all gone, I see her rib cage, covered in blood. I see the bow and arrows, they're inside the rib cage. I climb down the tree, and realise the only way to get them is to pull them out. I shut my eyes, and pull the bow and each arrow out, each one is covered in either slime, blood, or, if I am unlucky, both. It is both disgusting, but it'll be worth it when I can hold that sweet bow with arrows. When it is finally over with, I go to a nearby lake and properly rinse them off, now they're as good as new.
And then I realise why I was able to do all this.
Coo.
I set off to look for her.
