When the sky went dark once again, I transformed, and made my way back to the cornucopia. I could smell a hint of smoke in the air. On my way, I heard something moving in the tall grass, something too large to be an animal. Definitely not a career; they wouldn't be alone this early in the game. I recalled two tributes who didn't appear very stealthy: Thresh, from 11, and Peeta, from 12. Something told me that Peeta wouldn't have decided to go it alone, so I determined it was Thresh I had heard in the field.

I approached the edge of the field, and changed back into human form. Gleaming in the artificial moonlight, was the cornucopia. I sprinted to it, hearing a cannon go off as i searched for any supplies that had been neglected earlier. I managed to scavenge a package of dried fruit, an empty canteen and iodine, and a small knife, bloodied from the battle earlier. Loosening my sturdy brown belt, I secured the canteen under it, put the fruit in my jacket pocket, and kept the knife out, just in case. I began jogging towards the forest, where I knew I had a better chance at finding food. I had excelled at an edible plants test in training, but as I realized how tired I was, I decided to wait until morning to put those skills to use. I scaled a tree with rather thick foliage, secured myself to the branch with my belt, and fell asleep within minutes.
