Chapter 6; For Philip

Me and Philip started walking through the arena. Philp's overall was black just like his hair. He was carrying a bow and arrows.
There are 9 people left which includes Brutus.
"I'll go hunt some food and you stay here and take care of our supplies." Philip said when we got to a place where there were a lot of palm trees.
He left and I sat down next to a tree.
I tried to clean the cut on my arm with water.
Then I noticed a package from sponsor. I quickly took it and it was cream with a note.
"Good luck!" ~Mona"
I put the cream on my arm and I heard Philip's scream in a distance.
I felt like my heart stopped, I rushed to the place where I heard the scream from but I was too late.
Philip's chest was bleeding and the person who did to him already ran away.
"Philip!" I yelled.
He didn't answer and a cannon fired.
I couldn't believe it, I wanted to break down and cry but I had to get myself together.

...

I took Philip's supplies, he had a lot of it so I won't have to worry about it for a while. I found a cave again where I could stay for the night. I looked at the sky and the fallen tributes appeared.

Boy from District 9
Earl from District 1
Philip from District 7

Don't worry, Philip. I'll find the person who killed you.

...

On the third day no one died.
I spent the whole day on stealing supplies from dead and alive tributes. I wanted to see what was in the sea.
It was huge and I was almost sure something was out there.
Luckily my backpack was waterproof so my supplies wouldn't get wet.
But before I leave to the sea, I had to make sure that the person who killed Philip pays.

On a fourth day when I was exploring the arena I heard a communicate.
"Attention tributes! There is a feast in the Cornucopia! There is a special package for each of you!"
There's probably water in mine because that's what's missing for me.
I knew that everyone is going to be there but this is the only way to catch whoever killed Philip.

I went to the Cornucopia.
There were 8 bags there.
One of them had number 1 on it, one of them had 2, one had 7, 9, 11 and 12. There were two that had 4 on it.
One of them were mine and the other one was for Brutus.
Before I went there I saw Erika from District 12 killing District 11 guy with a knife.
A cannon fired.
She took her and his bag and ran away.
I ran up to my bag and I was ready to take it when I heard someone behind me.
I turned around and saw Ginger fighting with Brutus.
Surprisingly Brutus was losing, he was lying on a ground and Ginger was really close to stabbing him in the chest.
Should I save him?
Brutus tried to kill me outside of the arena but part of me didn't want him to get killed.
I threw my spear at Ginger, it landed right in her head.

A cannon fired.

Brutus looked at me shocked. He definitely didn't expect me to save him. I didn't know why I did that.
"Did you kill Philip?" I asked.
"No." He answered while still being confused and shocked.
"Do you know who killed him?"
"Erika from 12." He replied.
"Okay." I said.
I took my bag and Ginger's bag.
"Wait!" Brutus said when I was about to leave.
"Yes?"
"Why did you save me?"
"I don't know."
"You want to kill Erika, right?"
"Yes."
"I'll do it for you." He offered which made me suprised.
"Why?"
"Because I owe you."
"Okay, thank you." I said.
"Thank you." He replied.
Brutus took his bag and ran away.

I ran in a opposite direction.

...

I was surprised that Brutus offered to help me. I thought he will want me to die even after I saved him. But he didn't.
I heard a cannon in a distance but I didn't turned around. I kept running to the sea.
No one was around me, everyone one was in Cornucopia.
I went in the sea, the water was cold which was a relief because it was hot on this arena. When I started swimming farther I felt like at home. The salty water remained me of the times when me and Rose were swimming together when we were kids.
I heard two cannons which got me out of my thoughts.
I was far away from land. I noticed a not big island in a distance.
I felt relief, I swam in its direction hoping I won't get into a force filed.

The island was small but not too small. There was nothing there. I felt very happy that I got here. I was all wet and cold but it didn't bother me. I had enough food and water to stay there for a while.

When I was resting on the place that I found, I realized that shouldn't have swam that much because my knee was hurting badly. I think it's because I wasn't swimming in a while and I got into the water with out any warm up. It's a problem because now if I wanted to leave the island I would drown.

I looked into my bag and there was water there. I looked inside Ginger's bag and I found some bread there.
I tried to fall asleep in my sleeping bag and I saw the fallen tributes on the sky.

Boy from District 11
Ginger from District 2
Boy from District 7
Erika from District 12
Brutus from District 4

Brutus is dead.
He probably died while fighting Erika.  Brutus wasn't a great person but he end up being not as horrible as I thought. He was strong and brave but he's biggest mistake was that he never listened to anyone. I remember when I saw him near the Cornucopia, he looked tried, dehydrated and hungry. Maybe if he listened to anyone, would be still alive.
