~The 19th Hunger Games~No Longer Accepting~

[Chrystopher]

After they had been walking for awhile, Cass suddenly rushed ahead, had she found something? Mako stared at her intently, listening, it was getting dark.
"What is it?" He asked, taking a few steps forward to stand next to her.

Cassandra Ashton ~ District 11
I didn't turn around, afraid I would take a wrong step and head away from the sound, and murmured "I think...I think I can hear dripping. It must mean there is water somewhere close,right?". Crossing my fingers, I hoped that I wasn't leading us both into a trap.

[Chrystopher]

Mako nodded slowly, "Sure, it must?" he took a slow step forward glancing back at Cassandra.
"Only one way to find out! He began jogging forwards, the lump in his throat was rising steadily and he was ecstatic to get to some water.

"But Mako-"I whispered,following after him quickly "-what if it's a trap?". I didn't even know whether he had heard me or not but I grasped hold of my machete and trudged after him. It was getting harder and harder to concentrate, I found it more difficult to hold onto my weapon and my eyes were getting fuzzy so I stumbled to a halt,watching Mako disappear off into the trees.

[Chrystopher]

((Hang on, is it a trap? is another tribute actually waiting for us? hahaha stupid mako.))
Cassandra murmured something but Mako wasn't listening, it didn't seem important.
Then it dawned on him that her comforting presence wasnt there, she had dissapeared.
"I knew this was too good to be true" Mako whimpered to himself, backing against a tree. Any moment Cass would jump out at him and slice him in two. How could he have let his guard down like that?

Anthony

After scouting for about another 30 minutes, Anthony just stopped. His head was spinning, the world was rotating, he felt as though he were about to faint.
"Water." He croaked, sitting down on a rock

Riley Anderson - District 3

Riley heard someone whisper his name and immediately clung more firmly to the tree he was hiding behind. Then he realized how ridiculous that was. It must be Eve, who else had bothered to learn his name at this point? "Yeah, it's me, Eve. I'm coming up." He reluctantly slunk from the shadows to the base of their tree. He sighed a bit as he placed his water bottle in the bag and began to climb up at a turtle's pace. He was certain of every foothold because Eve had tested them all. Soon he was sitting on a sturdy branch opposite to Eve. "It's kind of nice out here," he said cheerfully. "Why'd you leave me back there? I mean I understand the night is dangerous but...I was pretty far behind..."

Eve sighed with relief as she saw Riley climb onto the branch. She put her arrow away and grasped her bow tightly. Her face turned red and she looked down.
"Uh... I..." Eve looked around, making sure there was no one else spying on them. She took a shaky breath, wondering if she should tell Riley. If he suddenly turned out to be an enemy, he could easily use her weaknesses to kill her. Finally, Eve decided to tell him. If she didn't win, she wanted him to win, anyways.
"The dark scares me." She murmured, leaning a tiny bit closer so that only his ears could hear. "I've been scared of it since I was little. I can overcome it sometimes... but my grandfather was murmured one night, and it scared me forever." She settled back against the tree and closed her eyes, listening to the comforting hum of the birds.

Riley Anderson - District 4

Riley was adjusting himself on the branch. Lord only knew how he was going to stay balanced on this thing and sleep at night. Looking down at the dark ground, with roots just visible sprawling over the grass. On second thought, maybe he just wouldn't sleep at all. Then he thought of the rope in his bag. He could tie himself down to the branch...maybe it would be long enough to tie Eve down too.

He withheld his suggestion while listening to Eve speak. "Wow, I'm sorry to hear that..." he whispered back. "Did you see it happen? Were you there?"

(I don't know.I was trying to kind of make it open for anyone because I thought there were some others by the lake...I'm not sure if they are still there though)
Cassandra Ashton ~ District 11
I let out a whimper as Mako disappeared before crumbling to the ground. "I'm so so sorry Mako" I whispered to myself, my eyes slowly closing and I waited for the inky blackness to finally take over. I'm not giving up yet, I can't let this stop me. I've got to do this for my family.
