What a lucky boy. this adorable guy stole my heart and I am sure he had tons of sponsor rooting for a youngling to win this year. If Imogene and I don’t win, I hope he does.

.’Oh i would like to” I say taking a fruit and splinting it in two with my dagger. I give him one part. ‘What about we take one thing and save the rest for tomorrow?we dont know what will happen. ” We stay in silence, eating the needed food with appetite. Honestly I could eat the whole thing but we needed to have supplied for tomorrow. I start humming a song from 8 when two cannon went up. I jerk to look if the hovercrat went into Imogene direction.

But after a moment I havent seen anything I resume myself to finish our bed for the night. ”Why don’t you go upper and see the fallen, the night is about to fall. ” I needed him to keep him busy and I wasn,t done. Hamac are long to do. And my hand were shaking a bit

I take the fruit and eat it happily, licking up a bit of juice that drips down my hand. Sometimes being in the arena is scary. I feel like we do a lot of running and hiding, and I'm afraid of every little noise I hear. But then other times, I'm just sitting on the grass eating a piece of fruit with a friend. And those moments feel nice; they feel normal.

I finish the fruit way too quickly, licking at my fingers as I toss the seeds to the ground. "That was yummy!" I say with a grin, but Charlie still looks sad. "What of we use the parachute for the hammock?" I suggest, offering her the fabric.

I look around and frown. ”Well there are still leave and branches that are bendable. So If you little monkey grab me some I can knot them into a hamac or something. So we could sleep up here. ” It was safer than the ground where it was easier to spot us.

We split up to gather as much as we could. I was tired from the emotion and the day so I didn’t went far. Anyway I wanted my eyes on Colt at any time. I start doing the knot when I spot a silver parachut landing right in front of Colt. ”Colt look to your left!” I said pointing to it. What could it be? A sponsor? Really?

I'm busy gathering some strong looking branches when I hear the beeping. My eyes widen as the parachute comes into view. A sponsor? Really! I must have impressed someone! I grin widely, running towards it. I unhinge the canister from the parachute, it's heavy. I sling the parachute over my shoulder and run towards Charlie, eager to open it. "Look! Look!" I shout excitedly, bringing it over and setting it in front of her.

I sit down and twist it open, pulling out the delicate slip of paper that sits on top. My eyes start to water as I read the words. 'You reminded Avery of our little brother. We're all rooting for you. - Rowan and Brook Pickket.' I swallow the lump in my throat, but manage to smile up at the sky. For someone with no words, Avery managed to say a lot. I look down with wide eyes to find just what we were looking for. "Food!" I say excitedly, revealing some fresh water and fruit. "And a flashlight!" I add, picking up the batteries and assembling it. "There!" I say with a wide grin. "You want a piece?" I offer.

Seeing him cried made me want to cry. But I had to be the though one now. I had to swallow my tears and only allow myself tears when Colt is sleeping. Because this is a child. A sensitive and curious one. And if I am upset he will be and it will be no use fr both of us.

' hey come here shhhh” I cooed as I pull him into a hug and rocked him. I was also scared but I,ve seen more Hunger Games than him. ' If its them, we will see hovercraft over there picking up body. If they aren't there yet, it is because it,s not them. ' This was a foolish hope that even myself hardly believe but I had to cling to it. ” look!” Between the branches I pointed at him the large gray transport appearing in the sky. It wasn,t at Fox or Imogene position. And even if they left after I did, they couldn't have reached there so quickly. ”They are safe. And so are we. ” I said stroking his hair.. 'now we need to find where we will sleep and how we will drink and eat. ” Because I couldn,t go back there .Even if it means that Imogene believe that i hate her. I don,t, and Ill bring that with me as the fire that made me hold to this wold and not dive into madness.

I look in the direction she's pointing, and I realize she's right. I feel relief sweep over me and I loosen my grip on her."You're right." I say, nodding softly. And I smile a little, glad they're okay, for now at least.

I nod, swallowing. In my sudden decision to follow Charlie, I forgot I was leaving the food behind too. My stomach grumbles a little. "Where can we sleep that'll be safe?" I frown a little, wishing I did some kind of shelter training back in the Capitol. But it was too late for that now. I lean against Charlie and yawn a little. Even though I had a nap before, I'm kinda sleepy. "So," I look up at her expectantly. "What should we do?"

#Awwwwww thank you!!!!#parachute #D2

As Colt and Charlie talk about their decision to leave their alliance, a parachute sounds overhead. Inside is a basket of fruit, a flashlight with batteries and a canteen of water. The note reads:

'You reminded Avery of our little brother. We're all rooting for you. - Rowan and Brook Pickket.'

well if he was here to comfort me that wasnt working at all because i felt more like shit than ever. ‘Thats why I left. Fox and I tried to be friend and it didn’t work. And I was scared that would kill you or Imogene one day. So I decided that you three stay together and I leave. Heros knows when you have to make sacrifice for the loved one. Didn,t Cap, went in ice for years to save the woman he love?” He poke his figurine. This grown up sstuff was too complicated for him. Even I wasntt sure to get the hang of it.

Then a cannon went on. As my mind went to Imogene. Another….then another. Either Fox and Imogene got killed by someone who died after, otherwise it was another fight. I hopped for the lather. ”Three more. ” I say eying up the sky hoping not to see my friend face n it. ” you should go back to the girls Cap. Im not thor, Im no hero and I can’t prootect ou as much as Fox and Imogene.”

She just had to bring Cap into this. I press my lips together. Charlie's right. Even the hero has to leave sometimes. I pout. I don't like that. I jump at the sound of the cannon, nearly loosing my balance. I grab onto charlie for support, holding her arm. I look at her with wide eyes. "We have to go back! What if that was them!" I feel tears forming in my eyes.

I admit he made me smile a bit. I made place on the branch as he climb and fixed his hair with a motherly gesture when he arrive at my side. ”Because I just lost my Imogene and I think I made her more sad this week than during the 16 years we knew each other. ’ It is true. This was our first true fight. our first and last.

”And I am sad because I am scared that she think I dont love her. But I do thats why I left. ” I couldn’t bring myself to told him about my disagreement with Fox. Whatever happen I needed to protect him. ”Because sometime when you love someone you have to step away and let her be with someone she need more than you. Even if it hurts and makes you cry, thats the only way you can show how much you care. ”

I frown. "That's what my papa said when he left." I say, watching my feet dangle towards the ground. "But I don't think that's true. Staying away from the people you love just hurts them more. Heroes always face things side by side." I take her hand. "I don't want you or 'Gene or Fox or anyone to be sad." I say, squeezing her hand. "But how can we make sure they're safe if we're up in this tree? Best friends are supposed to keep each other safe, right?"

Why did I go away? The answer wasnt simple and honestly half of me couldn’t answer to that. I was so afraid that my last thing toward imogene was to hurt her. But I was doing her more wrong there than not being around. ”It’s okay Colt. You arre the best hero. But you should go back to the others. What would be the Avengers without Captain america? ” It was hard saying that without a sob and I only manage to do it because it would maybe work. I was a terrible person and my punishmen was to die alone.

"What would the Avengers be without Thor?" I counter, climbing up the tree so I can sit next to her. "Are you gonna tell me why you're so sad?" I ask, looking up at her. "That's the kind of thing friends do, right?" I move so we're hip to hip. "C'mon. I don't like it when you're sad."

It’s the sound of my name that make me open my eyes. I wipe them a bit confuse. That wasn’t Imogene voice. Anyway I know she wouldn’t follow me right away She would speak to Fox first. Then maybe come back. But honestly she should focus on surviving and not me. It was impossible to live together and the alliance was about to explode. I just decided to go before it end up in blood shed. The capitol must be sad of this.

The small voice was closer. I grabbed my dagger, shaking from emotion, in my other hand Imogene’s hat. Then I saw him. My heart drop. Oh no. ” Colt?” I said ” What are you doing here go back to Fox and Imogene they will protect you!” He was much safer with them than with me.

I look up, following the sound of her voice and spot her in a tree. I put my hands on my hips. "What kind of a hero would leave behind their forever friend!" I say, walking over and climbing up the tree. "Why did you go away? Did somebody make you sad?"

We say that people get closer together when dead is around. This past seasons, we saw games were lovers sacrificed their self, friends died for each other even sibling protecting one another.

And then there’s Imogene and I.

What the fuck happen? Honestly I couldn’t know. Imogene was my best friend, my sister. The one accepting me when no one else could. The one protecting me form my father. The one I gave food even if she was hiding how starving she was. Since we came here, we got torn apart and lose each other. No. Not true. I lost her.

When I arrived to the first spot we were, I look around. There were no deer. I climbed into the nearest tree despite my hand shaking. That made me think of Colt who were a little monkey. One other person I failed to keep my promise to protect until I die. When I arrived at the top, I grabbed my pink cap. Who was Imogene,s in fact. I clutch at it and start crying silently. Now I will die alone and broken. But protecting as much as I can Imogene for more hurt and endless fight for stupid thing. That’s stupid to do, but the only thing I had the power to do.

Exhausted I tried to stop sobbing and wonder what to do now. But as soon as I tried to stop it got worse. Guess I cant do more than that now.

By the time I'm done saying my goodbyes, Charlie is already too far ahead for me to catch up. My chest moves up and down as I sprint as fast as I can, trying not to lose her. "Charlie!" I shout, watching as she ducks in through the trees where we were before. I walk in cautiously, hoping the daddy deer isn't here any more. I look around, but she's no where to be found. "Charlie?" I whisper, worried that I lost her.

All We Need Are Roasted Marshmallows || Avengers

Only a friendship of 16 years made me stop and look at Imogene. I had enough. I wanted to cool down before I do something stupid and hurt everyone. But aparently i couldn,t„ And for the sake of my best friend, I stayed here. Oh the capitol must love that fight. I bet people are actually bidding on who is going to kill the other first. Me or Fox. I was opening my mouth to say that I was leaving when Imogene saw Colt waking up.

I closed my eyes as tears start to fell. I was so…so tired of everything. I was praying for the game maker to kill me now. Because between someone who didn,t care if I die, my best friend saying she didn’t recognized me and a confused kid,I couldnt take it anymore. I am going to be insane. But like adults do, we tried to put the kids out of it. So we protected Colt. I bet whatever I posses that our scream will alert any tribute nearby if any.

” Im sorry. ” I whisper looking at Imogene through my tears. Because earlier she asked me to be nicer with Fox. And I tried. And I failed oh so badly. I kissed her head gently. ” Forgive me. I love you” I said before going to kiss Colt head. ” be strong.” And on that I left walking toward the first stop we did at the begining. Hopefully the deer will be gone. Leaving them alone will at least protect them to be hurt even more by me.
