You decide to follow your wicked plan. You know where Katniss and Peeta are hiding so you soundlessly head towards their den. You collect leaves and branches and make a small heap some six hundred yards away from their hiding place. You go three hundred yards towards their den and make another small heap. You take out a box of matches from your pocket (you found it in the backpack) and light the heap on fire. You run as fast as you can towards the other heap and light that on fire too. Before anyone came to the action site, you hurry off towards the opposite side where your tree is and climb it. You can make out faint voices from the action site so you stay hidden in your tree, safe and sound, waiting for the evening to approach.
When finally the evening came, you hear the familiar Capitol anthem. For the first time in days, faces appear in the sky. Your plan had worked. There had been four deaths today. Katniss, Peeta, the boy from district one, and the girl from district four were dead. Only you, the other three careers and the tributes from district eleven were left.
You eat dinner and go to sleep. You are woken the next morning by the sound of rustling leaves. A broad grin spreads across your face as you see the small girl from district eleven perched on a tree beside you. She quickly hides behind the leaves as soon as she sees you. You assure her that you wouldn't hurt her and form and alliance with her. You talk and eat together the whole day before your food supplies run off. You also need to refill your water bottle. She tells you that there indeed is only one river in the arena, which is near the Cornucopia. You decide that you both would split up, one would bring food and one would bring water. What do you do?
1. You yourself go to the Cornucopia to arrange water while Rue goes scavenging for food. (Go to page 16)
