"I guess we try and look for animals?" Cato suggested. "Then head back."
"We're not gonna find any." Clove said without emotion. "Let's just go and get some sleep so we can wake up early and get in place."
"Okay then," Cato agreed with her.
Clove started walking back towards the lake. "I'll take first watch." She said as she walked.
"Sure?" Cato asked, following her.
"Yeah," Clove smiled. "I think I should have a turn. You've been first so many times."
"Okay." Cato smiled and headed back to the lake with her.
Clove sat down and looked around.
Cato sat beside her and thought of a plan.

Clove looked at Cato. "Still have that blanket?" She asked.
Cato shook his head lightly, "That disappeared last night too."
Clove scowled at the ground. "It was on us," she muttered. "and she stole it. While it was on us." She shook her head.
Cato nodded and lent back. "Maybe district five's our biggest opponent here."
Clove still couldn't forget about what Katniss had done. "I think they are all big opponents. And we'll be facing three at once tomorrow. Maybe four."
"Thresh and Katniss are gonna be the hardest," Cato murmured and scribbled in the dirt with a stick.
"Redhead will be out without us even noticing probably. I can't believe how she stole our stuff." Clove replied. "Katniss and Thresh will fight."
"True," Cato sighed and looked up at the sky.
"I won't be able to take on Thresh hand to hand. He's too big. I'll take Katniss." Clove said.
"All right," Cato nodded. "Sounds good. But I'll need your help."
* * *
Clove nodded. "Ok. I'll take Katniss and you just try to keep Thresh at bay. I'll try to throw a knife at him while you hold him in position?" She suggested.

Cato looked at her, "Okay, sounds easy aye?"
"It does. I hope it is easy. We can't just lose now."
"We won't lose, Clove," Cato promised her, "we'll be back home before you know it."
"I know," Clove replied, giving Cato a small smile.
Cato smiled slightly.
"Go to sleep." Clove said to Cato soothingly.
"Sure you'll be okay?" Cato asked quietly.
"Positive." Clove assured him.
Cato yawned quietly nd laid down beside her, looking up at the sky for a moment.
Clove stroked Cato's arm softly.
Cato flinched lightly.
Clove continued to stroke his arm happily.
Cato soon drifted off.
Clove watched as the night grew darker. She had no intention of waking Cato that night.

... And My Skillet
A long time ago, a child was born under the great blue sky. Many a Dwarf grumbled at the auspicious event, tugging furtively at their beards at this ill omen. A year later as the expedition had begun digging into the virgin hills of their new home, the grumbling of the doughty mountain people rose to a disbelieving furor when the yearling passed over the ritual offerings that would determine his lot in life. Instead, the as of yet unnamed child crawled over to a skillet fresh out of the fire and begun picking at the rock bread, unconcerned with the heat. Shouts turned into laughter, frowns lifted into craggy smiles. Upon placing a handful of the bread into his mouth, the infant’s face grew so grim and stony not even the eldest of the present Dwarves could match him. There was a durable ore within this babe, of that the Lore Keeper was sure. Yumly Ironhand was thus named, the beginning of his great tale immortalized on the rune walls of his clan’s history. “It’s pronounced Yoom Lee and no, rock bread isn’t a misnomer.”

Duality of a Soul
In the land of magic and demons, knights and forgotten ancient technologies. What would you do if you were to wake up one day amidst all of this without your memories? Will you do everything you can to get them back to be who you were, or leave the past behind and begin anew? Follow along with our main character as he struggles to establish his new identity while the shadows of his past threaten to consume him. To be a detested hero or celebrated villain? Only time will tell. Author’s Note: Heavily influenced by fantasy goodness far and wide, I hope to make it somewhat original with a sense of familiarity to you. The overall story is pieced together through the perspective of the characters presented, first + third person narrative styles because I enjoy reading novels with similar storytelling. Please feel free to provide any comments and constructive criticisms for me because I love to read what you think so I can continue to improve on my imperfections and make the story better. Cheers!

Labeled as a heretic he was hunted down by the Holy Church and left to die. On his last breath he is reborn as a lich. An undead mage who can summon powerful minions of darkness. Fueled by revenge, bloodlust and the internal darkness of his soul, watch as morgan struggles in a world where he is now the monster and grows in power by consuming the souls of his victims. Will he become a evil creature of massacre? Is there any shred of his humanity left? Will he ever make it back home? ONLY TIME CAN TELL... Note from author: This story will develop slowly. He isn't some chosen person or special in any ways. Not even very lucky, powerful or smart. Just a regular guy in a world he doesn't understand. The novel will cover his journey, even some of the boring and adventureless parts. I want him to seem real. I will however used time skips for long-winded and stagnant periods followed by summaries of what occurred.
