"You really think I would stick around with you if there was gonna be an ambush? You don't know the first thing about these things, do you?" I said, smiling. I watched Ava put the meat on the stick, then stuck it in the fire.
"Unless you guys want charcoal for breakfast, I'd better cook it. Ava, I saw some basil leaves over there. Would you mind getting some?" I asked her. I took the sick from her and held it above the flames about three inches so that not even the orange that licked the sky could reach it. I began to turn it very slowly and steadily.

Joesph got up slowly, and glanced at their food. "I'm going to go hunt." He said quietly, and picked up his bow. He slung it over his shoulder and pushed his way through the trees, looking for something to shoot or maybe some roots to dig up. As he saw a robin pecking at the ground, he stalked closer and pulled back his string just as something stabbed him in the stomach.
He crumpled to the ground and moaned, blood pouring steadily out of his side. Before the stabber could finish Joesph off, his weakly lifted up his bow and released it, barely piercing his pursuer's neck. Once the cannon fired, he tore off a piece of his shirt and put it against his wound. It was crimson within seconds, and he took the rest of his shirt off to try and soak up as much blood as he could. As more of the sticky fluid drained from his body, Joesph's vision began to darken. He whispered, "Kit..." but knew it was futile, as she was probably about a mile away. The last thing he saw before blackness was a boy crouching over him saying quietly, "I'll help you. Don't worry."

As he saw Shyne regain consciousness, he sheathed the claws and knelt near. "Don't worry, you're not dead. Are you feeling okay?" She had to be okay. Without something to care for, he had no reason to stay in the games.

I got up as she took my rabbit and looked around. I tried to remember what basil looked like, vaguely remembering a time when mother used it in a meal. the picture of the herb formed in my mind and I started walking. As I did so, I heard a small whisper that sounded like Joseph. I looked around and finally found where he was. I must have been farther from the corner than I thought because I couldn't hear the crackling of the flames anymore. I saw Joseph lying on the forest floor with a wound in his chest and what looked like a torn off shirt part on top. I bit my lip, unsure of what to do.
I saw the sword flash in front of me and ducked. it swept past where my neck used to be. The boy appeared in front of me and snarled. I stabbed him just as he was lifting his sword to strike again. He must have been the one who hurt Joseph. I backtracked as well as I could, following the smoke of the fire. "KIT!" I called when I arrived. "Joseph got stabbed!"...

((Merph...I kind of had this planned out, and uh...the boy crouching over him didn't hurt him, and the boy who did hurt him is gone. Should have specified, I know. But can you remove the last paragraph? D:))

[[Posting now.]]
Shyne put her hands up over her mouth. It wasn't Vega. It couldn't be. "So I'm alive then." I say quietly. I sit up and tenatively touch my lef. "Owww." I mumbled. I opened my bag again and pulled out a fistful of bandage. Why didn't I find this before? I think to myself. I set it down on the ground before beginning to unravel it.

"You need help with that?" He asked Shyne, still in a whisper.

"Bring those here, will ya?" I asked Ava in a sharp voice. I turned the rabbit meat once more, then waited for the basil leaved impatiently.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be like that. It's just... The sun is almost out and Joesph is still not back. He should've been back sooner." I said, worry in my voice. Usually the sun rose early in District 4, so most of us that had jobs had learned to get up very early and be quick while hunting, then come back just as the sun was rising.
You'd better go after him, Steve. He could be hurt. Bob told me.
I know. I don't want to leave Ava alone. I'll go if he isn't back by the time I'm done cooking. I told Bob. I turned the meat again, my brain automatically doing the thing that kept me from going after Joesph quickly. I knew my brain was weird, and this was just another feature in my little fish-brain.
I hope he's okay. Bob thought to me.
He won't be either way if he doesn't get here soon. I thought back.

As Joesph jolted into wakefulness, he automatically noticed two things: One, his side where he'd been stabbed was only slightly aching, and second, his wrists throbbed uncontrollably, but he didn't know why. Maybe he'd sprained it when he crumpled to the ground, but he couldn't remember in any pain in his arm...just as he struggled to sit up, he noticed a boy who looked to be about 16, sitting in the corner, fiddling with a long orange wire. He had ashy black hair, gray-blue eyes, and had his ill-fitting glasses fixated on the coil in front of him. The boy looked up, his eyes utterly perplexed. "You are?'
A sudden realization hit Joesph and his kind of growled, "tied to a tree." The boy laughed. "Yes, yes, of course." He waved his hand. "But I mean, something like, your name perhaps?"
"Joesph Wolfe."
"I'm Asher. Asher Rosen, of District Three.
Joesph frowned, "well, then Asher. Now that we're bros, can you do me a solid and untie me?" Asher Rosen laughed. "No." Joesph scowled slightly and asked, "why not?" Asher set his wire down. "Because. I let you go, you murder me. Easy as that. Of course, you can leave. But I'm not untying you."
"What are you going to do, then?"
~
"This is humiliating." Joesph whined as Asher walked ahead of him, holding his wrist by the rope. "I feel like a..." Joesph paused, "horse or something." Asher shrugged, "sorry. Any other way and I'm dead."
"What am I going to kill you with? You took my bow."
"You look strong enough to kill me in combat. I'm not taking the chance."
Joesph stayed silent for the rest of the trek, still angry that this District Three was treating him like an animal of a sort. As they approached a girl from District Four, Asher glanced at him carefully. "Is this her?" Joesph nodded, then smiled sheepishly. "Hey Kit. Uh, how are you?"

((District 3=Ava
She has a wire too, remember XD))
I handed the leaves to Kit as she turned the rabbit. It looked easy, but I knew it probably wasn't. "Ya, I wonder where he is" I responded, also thinking that he might be in trouble somehow. "You're right, he should be back" She asked, innocently fiddling with the wire she had taken from her backpack. I didn't notice when Joseph came back, as I was too engrossed in trying to make something out of the wire and a few random pieces of metal I had seen in one of the backpacks from the cornucopia, until he spoke. I looked up....
((Sorry, I'm really tired still.))
