Safe and Sound
~I remember tears streaming down your face when I said "I'll never let you go"
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember you said "Don't leave me here alone"
But all that's dead and gone and past tonight~
I'm in the arena again. The buzzing of tracker-jackers comes from behind me as I run through the thick foliage. Jump over a bush and duck under a branch. If I stop for a minute, they'll catch me. Suddenly the tracker-jackers' buzzing ceases. Curious, I turn around for a look. Cato stares me in the face, eyes thin with blood thirst, spear in hand. My heart gives a lurch and I whip my head around again, trying to get away.
