He looked terrified when he saw us, as he should.
"It's the lover boy." Clove laughed.
"He ran away from the Bloodbath and thought he wouldn't have to deal with us." Cato added.
"Let me have my third kill."
Cato was about to hit the lover boy with a sword but Marvel stopped him.
"Wait, we can use him."
"For what?" Cato looked puzzled.
"To find the girl on fire. He should know where she is.

I got what Marvel was thinking. Keeping the lover boy might actually be used to our advantage plus there were already many deaths today, the sponsors won't complain.

"Well then, congrats lover boy." Cato made him get up. "You're not dieing today."
"You got a name?" I ask.
"P-Peeta. Peeta Mellark."

We go back to the Cornucopia, Peeta seems to still be in shock. Clove has her knife on his back, just in case he thinks of running away.

Marina seems to be suprised by Peeta.
"It's only for a bit." Cato tells her before she says anything.

The day ended up being much more boring than I imagined. Too much planning and too little killing.

As it started to get darker, Cato gave us all some food while making sure that none gets it themselves. Each of us got an apple and few nuts, except Peeta who got only five nuts.
"So lover boy," Cato sat down infront of Peeta.
"Do you know where Katniss is?"
The question was very clear.
"I don't know." Peeta replied.
Without a doubt, Cato put the sword to lover's throat.
"You live only because I was in a good mood." He hissed.
"Tell me everything you know or my mood might change."

I rolled my eyes with a sigh. District 2 tributes are so dramatic. Is being dramatic a part of their training?

"I don't know, she ran away from the Cornucopia with a backpack."
"Yeah and I tried to kill her but she escaped." Clove added.
"Alright. You're safe for now." Cato put down his weapon.

"We can't stay here, tomorrow we will have to pack things up." He added.
"We have enough backpacks, I think we will be good."
"Let's pack things up so tomorrow we will be ready."

We managed to pack everything in the backpacks, everyone got one except Peeta who got nothing.
"Let's keep turns in sleeping." Clove suggests.
"I can go first." I volunteer since someone has to do it anyway.

Everyone goes to sleep and I stay awake. I get pretty bored and I play with my necklace.

I hope that Luster was watching today. He isn't a fan of the games but I know that he will make a exception for me.
I start thinking what my close ones are doing back home.

My dad had been working all day and just got back. My mum was working from home and probably watching the games.
I bet Amy couldn't go away from the tv today. I bet she's watching right now instead of sleeping.
And Luster, he always worries about me. I bet he's watching too.
Is my teacher watching? I'm pretty sure she is.

Suddenly, I hear the anthem of Panem and fallen tributes.

A girl from 3, Max from 4, guy from 5, both from 6 and 7, a boy from 8, both from 9 and 10.

Eleven are gone by day one.

...

"Hey guys, wake up!"

I hear Marvel's voice and get up from the ground.
Sleeping on the grass wasn't the most comfortable experience of my life.

"Jeez, where's the fire?" Clove says.
"Right here!"
Marvel points at smoke from an actual fire. More like a fireplace to be certain.

"Someone's there, let's go!"
We grab our weapons and backpacks.

This will be our first kill after the bloodbath.
We ran to the direction of the smoke, after some time, we find a girl with curly red hair lying on the ground.

She woke up as soon as we came to her.
"Hello, there." Cato said.
He grabbed the sword and stabbed her in the back, the girl screamed.
As he did that, I spotted number 8 on girl's jacket.

The girl was lying on the ground as the blood spread from her body.
"Let's go." He ordered.
"But she isn't dead yet." I argue.
"She will bleed out, let's go." He didn't even look at me.
"But the girl-"
"The more painfully she dies that better, now let's go." He hissed.
"Just to remain you, we didn't get any sponsors gifts yet." He whispered and walked away.

I gave up on arguing and went along with his plan.
We began to walk through the forest.
I was annoyed by Cato's behaviour, he acts like he is the centre of the world. He thinks he's so great but he actually knows nothing.
But one thing worried me.
The sponsors.
We didn't get any gifts but it's only day two. I don't know how to entertain the sponsors, I have my looks so the fact that I am here itself should do something. It can be not enough, soon they can get bored especially with lovers alive.

We arrived to the river, it was good to know that there's water source on the arena.
"Water. That's comforting." Marina stated.
"But how do we know if it's safe? I mean, it could be poisonous." Mravel adds.
"True. Let 12 test it." Clove said and kicked Peeta in the river.

We all waited for him to drink some of it and after he did we stared at him for few seconds.
"It's safe." He tells us.
"Cool, let's get it."
Clove and Marina put some water in the bottles.
"The cannon didn't sound yet." I say.
"That's weird. Peeta should go and finish her off." Cato orders and without any word, Peeta disappears with a sword.
"We need to kill him off, he's not getting us anywhere." Clove complains.
"We will, don't worry." Cato adds.

After Peeta comes back and we hear a cannon, we agreed to stay near the river for the night. I had a pretty wild idea what to do during the night.

When Clove her watch first everyone went to sleep. I stated up and went to the river.
I started taking my clothes and off and let my hair down.
"What are you doing?" Clove asked.
"Taking a bath." I reply.
I catch Clove blushing as she looks away from my naked body.

I spot the camera and stretch my arms to show off my body to the watchers.
I then go into river.
The cold water feels nice, much different from pool water.

I hide my head under water for a second.
"What are you looking at?" I ask to Clove who had been watching me.
"Nothing, nothing, I'm just making sure no one kills you that's all." She replies nervously.
"Do you want to join me?" I suggest.
"No, I'm good, someone has to keep the guard."
"Alright." I laugh.

Maybe Clove isn't interested in Cato for different reasons that she told me before.
