We stayed the night at the camp that Peeta and Haymitch had made. When the sun reached about the 7:00 mark, we followed Haymitch to the "cave of wonders." It turned out, Haymitch was right. The supplies would help us get to Prim. There were bows, arrows, coils of rope and much more. I selected a bow, a pack of arrows and 2 coils of rope.

It took us 4 days to reach district one. When we hit the fence line between 2 and 1 we rested. We mostly rested for Peeta. He was going on and on about how walking to much was and for you, he was tired. You get the picture.

Peeta propped himself up against a tree by the fence line. He fell asleep almost instantly. I watched as his chest repeated the same pattern.

Up, down, Up, up, down, up, down, up, up down...

I soon became tired and leaned up against a tree myself. I listened to the fire crackle which made me fall asleep. I dreamed Prim... Oh I hoped Peeta was right...

"Katniss help me!!!" She screamed. She was standing in the centre of flames. Her clothing was catching fire. I reached out to grab her but all I grasped were ashes. I opened my hand to see nothing. The ashes had blown away and I had lost her.

My eyes were closed tight but I could feel, smell, and hear everything around me. There was a loud fire crackling and the rustling sound of feet.

My eyes flipped open and I saw Peeta on the ground, Haymitch was tied to a tree and I had my feet and hands tied. I had a gag in my mouth and there was a knife at my feet. I looked around to see a group of muscular men in a huddle only 10 feet from where I was. What? I was so confused. I cleared my throat and Peeta's head popped up. He made a hushing sign with his left hand.

Before I could respond, I was grabbed by the hair and my head was forced to tilt upwards. There was a large, muscular man with a shaved head and a stubby beard.

"Well, well. Looks like the Princess is awake..."

Oh shoot.
