Chapter 7

I woke up on the eighth day and decided that's the time that Amelia was talking about.
It's time to hunt tributes.
I decided to try the tactic that she used which was poisoning tributes.
I spotted that Octavia from 7 was sitting with her backpack near a ship.
I took a box that my package from sponsor came one day and put a bottle of poison water from the sea. Without being spotted I threw the box near her.
Octavia looked happy to see the package, she opened it and drank the water. After a minute she fell on the ground and I heard a cannon.

Just as I took her backpack, it started to snow heavily and the wind was blowing.
A snow storm started.
I quickly began to look for a shelter.
The snow was making me not able to see anything so I was hoping I won't fall into someone.
Finally after couple of minutes I found a huge ship that I could hide in. I was praying that no one is inside it because of running I spread my ankle.
I sat down and immediately started a fire so I can warm myself up.
Luckily the medicine that Poppy had was great for my ankle.

During the storm I heard only one cannon.
It means that one person except me is still alive.

It was night when the storm stopped. I didn't want to go to sleep, I had to look for the last tribute.

It wasn't hard to find the tributes because she was walking near the shore of the frozen beach.

It was Vance from 1. She had blood spreading from her mouth and forehead. I couldn't see a human in her eyes.
She quickly sprinted into my direction with a knife in her hand.
Vance tried to pin me on the ground but I was stronger than her.
"Better give up!" She yelled.
"That's not quite my style." I smirked and picked her up by her jacket.
With no hesitation I threw her and she cracked the ice while falling into the sea.
After a minute a cannon sounded.

Then there was communicate.
"Dominic Noble from District 8 is a winner of the 125th Hunger Games and the 5th Quarter Quel!"
A hovercraft came and I felt happy that I will be able to see my kids again but I felt sad that I'll have to leave Patricia behind.

I'll never forget you my twin.

Dominic went back to District 8 and lived in the Victor Village with his kids; Emily and Lance. After 3 years he married Amelia. He also opened a shop where he was selling all of Patricia's art and crafts works along with Patricia's adopted daughter.
