《Clato》chapter thirty-one
Advertisement
Cato didn't resist, he bunkered down and fell asleep instantly. He didnt have any nightmares now, it was actually quite peaceful and bright.
Clove watched Cato sleep. She was so happy to see him relaxing and to know that they could be together. Hours later, dawn began to break. Clove knew how Cato felt not wanting to wake her up, she felt the same way. She let him sleep. It wasn't like they needed to be anywhere.
Cato woke up about an hour after dawn, he yawned and slowly sat up.
"Good morning!" Clove said cheerfully.
"Good morning," Cato smiled.
"Sleep well?" Clove asked.
"Yeah," Cato nodded and smiled slightly.
"Good." Clove smiled.
"Marvel and that girl from District 11 are dead." Cato told Clove.
"So that leaves?" Clove asked. She already knew Katniss was still alive.
"Lover boy, Katniss, the redhead and Thresh." Cato answered and ran a hand through his hair.
"Ok." Clove nodded. Lover boy was near death, that she knew. Katniss could be anywhere. They hadn't seen the redhead anywhere since the start of the games, or Thresh for that matter.
Cato was leaning against the tree still, forming a plan in his mind. "Lover Boy will have to be dead soon,"
"Unless he magically gets some medicine... Unless they magically get some medicine, that is. Katniss would surely have teamed up with him now."
* * *
Cato frowned. "Maybe, but there's nothing left." He said, then a thought intruded his mind. "Unless.."
"Unless?" Clove asked.
Cato shook his head, "Nothing." He murmured and sat up a bit more.
"Unless what?" Clove asked a bit firmer. "I don't care how dumb it sounds, we need all the possibilities."
"Never mind." Cato said, he didn't want to give the Gamemakers any ideas.

Clove looked at him. "Ok. But what's our next move?"
"To destroy the remaining tributes." Cato said matter of factly.
Clove laughed. "Didn't see that one coming." She joked. "Which ones and how?"
Cato rolled his eyes, smirking lightly. "I think we should take Thresh out first, he's stronger than the other three. Then Katniss and Lover Boy, and the redhead."
* * *
Clove pondered on this for a moment. "Thresh is eleven, and is too big to climb trees, so he'd be in the grasses right?"
"True," Cato nodded. "And he's gotta have food and water."
"He'd probably know some edible grasses, and there might be water in that area."
Cato sighed and looked down at the dirt.
"This is gonna be hard. I don't really feel like tracking him in his territory. Who knows what's there."
Clove's stomach rumbled. "Maybe we should hunt for breakfast, then make a plan?" She suggested.
"Yeah," Cato nodded and got up.
Clove stood up as well. She certainly was hungry. She still had all of her knives, so she was ready to go.
Cato grabbed his sword and hiked his backpack up onto his back.
Clove started out towards the trees.
Cato watched her back; looking around. He spotted a bird on the ground.

Dear Spellbook (Rewrite)
Live. Study. Repeat. Tal never saw himself as an adventurer, but the call to adventure never much cared for his opinion. Despite his best efforts, his search for answers on the murder of his parents ever draws him into danger. Accompanied by a group of seasoned warriors, thus far Tal has gotten by on his own meager magical talents, but when one day he wakes up to find himself back in his bed of the night before, he is faced with a challenge he must conquer alone. What to expect: This story was born of an attempt to create in world lore reasons for many of the mechanics and tropes of D&D, but you do not need to know of them to enjoy the story. It's a single POV time loop story with slow paced progression fantasy elements. The story is not one of fast-paced power ups and non-stop action, but as it progresses, the action picks up. There is a lot of magic system exploration on a system built to unify the diverse magic of D&D into one cohesive magic system. The setting is an original world with familiar races and monsters but with new unique origins and motivations. The average chapter will be 2-5k words long, most being around 3k but there are a few less than 1k, due to the nature of the story telling device I used. Book 1 is complete. Posting is on hold until I finish book 2. Book 2 progress: The rough draft is done at 141656 words as of 7/9/2022. I need to reread and edit it but Im aiming for resuming chapters in September.

Embrace the Blade [Drafts 1&2]
James Ransom grew up unable to do the simplest of life’s tasks. Legs were malformed; he was in a wheel chair as long as he could remember. Suffering from a severe form of muscular exhaustion making him unable to use his hands for long despite his resolve to fight through it. All the challenges facing him he still was able to enjoy reading and video games; but a tragic car accident will change his life forever and perhaps he will be given the opportunity to reincarnate into another world. Special thanks to Mikaelle for the Synopsis. This is my first book/fic so constructive critisism would be very nice. Expect a lot of grammatical errors but hopefully not too many spelling errors. Explanation for the tags; Action/Adventure/Fantasy: These don't really need an explanation, Comedy: I'll try to be funny hopefully I won't fail miserably, Romance: I like romantic sub-plots, LitRPG: No explanation needed but I am using my own system, Reincarnation/Summoned Hero: Not sure which one applies here I'm inclined to think both so I put both, Reader Interactive: I put this one here for my own amusment I'll allow everyone to help create the MC's love interest and maybe a few other things we will also hold a few contests.. Male Lead: self explanitory, Magic: Also easy, Strong Lead: Think of this as more of a weak-to-strong tag the MC will be OP but not till later in the story. Warning: Since this fic is labeled as 'Strategy' I believe that the readers should know as much as possible about the situations presented in the story so they can reach their own conclusions about how a fight could have been won or lost. That means: there are a lot of information dumps early on. I don't know how long I'll be able to write this fic but I promise to keep my few readers informed in case I decide to drop it or something.
