Katniss- Catching Fire
It was 11:00 pm and Alfred Brooks has won the most important boxing match of his career. He won by technical knockout and was heading back to his house in his friend’s truck.
“That was a great match Alfred.” Said; Alfred’s Friend
“Thanks, and after only 2 minutes into round 1.”
“Yep. That was a great match. Although you really got to keep some ice on that eye. Its really swollen.”
“Yeah i know.”
“Ok were here. Well that was a great match Alfred see you at the gym tomorrow.”
“Ok see you later.”
Alfred
got out of the car in the dark night sky as his friend took off in his
truck. As Alfred walked into his house he went into his bedroom to go to
sleep after a long fight.
The
next day Alfred woke up went for a jog and when he got backed called
his coach, Mr. Donatelli. He told him he was gonna stay at home and keep
some ice on his swollen eye. His coach said it was fine and he deserves
a day off after the amazing fight he had. Alfred watched some t.v.
while applying ice to his face and went to take a quick nap. He woke up
and looked at the clock and was surprised to see it was already 7:30 pm.
He decided to take one more quick jog. Although instead of taking his
usual jog he decided to jog along the path behind his house in the
woods. He thought it would be nice to switch it up and so he went
through the gate and started jogging through the woods...
After
about 15 minutes Alfred decided to turn around because it was getting
dark and Alfred’s eyes was affecting his vision. As he turned around he
heard a loud scream coming from about 50 feet away. He wasn’t sure if he
should run away or go towards the scream. He decided it was dangerous
because it was so dark out but whoever needed help he must go try to
help them. Alfred approached a body laying on the ground. He was sure
they were dead. He found a note taped on the body that said “I’m going
to kill you.” Alfred ran as fast as he could towards his house. As he
was running he saw someone jumping tree to tree following him. Alfred
tripped on a rock poking out of the smooth dirt path. Then he felt an
arrow pierce through the side of his thigh. He couldn’t move as the bow
was stuck in the ground and everytime he tried to pull it out he felt a
pain rush through his thigh. He heard footsteps behind him. He saw a
girl with a sword attached to her leg. She also had a bow loaded into
her bow and arrow as she approached him.
“Aww so sad. It seems you you’re stuck in a ‘tight’ situation haha. Its to bad i’m going to have to kill you.”
“You,
You don’t understand! I’m not the person you want please don’t kill me!
I’m Alfred brooks, a boxer, the next contender for a huge boxing match
coming up. Please, Please don’t kill me!”
“Well, Well, looks as if your my next Contender on who wants to lose the Hunger Games.”
“What are you talking abo-”
Before
Alfred could answer Katniss decapitated him with her machete. But
Alfred couldn’t believe what happened next. He woke up with his coach,
Mr. Donatelli standing next to him in a room with a doctor in it.
“Ughh my head hurts so badly. What, What happened?”
“Oh Alfred you became unconscious after your opponent sent an insanely powerful right hook into the side of your face. You have been unconscious for the past 30 minutes. Although you put up a good fight. You made it to the third round. For now just get some rest Alfred.”
“Mr. Donatelli you don’t understand! I won that match in the first round by TKO. I got chased by some crazy girl in the woods and they killed me! And, and-”
“Calm down Alfred! Just get some rest. You obviously had one crazy dream... it must have been that book you read. Catching Fire.
