We walk for a while.

“Do you think they will be hiding?" Clove asks. Then a fire starts.

“Run!" I yell.

I take off. The flames are hot and I am getting very hot. My jacket catches on fire. I rip it off and stop the fire. The wildfire has almost surrounded me. The heat burns me. I feel like I am on fire. All my Instincts tell me to jump in a pond but, I can not. The air is bad and that will trap me. The fire rages on. I can no longer see Clove or Rue. 

Then a fireball shoots at me. I hear a scream in the distance. My legs ache. I am having trouble running. My feet hurt. The rough ground has torn the shoes I am wearing. My feet burn on the hot ground making it harder.

The air tastes so bad. I cough and choke. I gasp and gulp. But, I am not dead yet. I am giving a big fight. Then the fire changes directions. I follow. I can not escape.

The fire has about burned me and I gasp for air. The heat burning my lungs. Nothing. Then the fire cools and stops. But, around the bend is all tributes. This will be a big fight.
