《Clato》chapter thirty

Clove nodded her head. "Where?" She asked.
"I dunno." Cato shot her a look.
"Woods maybe?" Clove suggested uncertainly.
"Nah, Katniss is in there. And I bet she's got some plan up her sleeve." Cato murmured. "How about the lake?"
"That might work." Clove replied. "Sleeping under the stars?" Clove had no idea how to build a shelter.
Cato nodded and smiled slightly. "I guess so, come on then. See what we can find." He looked around, found nothing really useful. So he went down to the lake quietly.
Clove sat down. It was already starting to get cold. "I can see why they lit fires at night." Clove said, hugging her knees.
Cato chuckled slightly.
There was a static sound, then the loud voice of Claudius Templesmith.

"Greetings tributes, the regulations requiring that one tribute may been crowned victor has been.. Revoked. Two victors may be crowned as long as they originate from the same district." That was it. No more words.
Cato looked at Clove, a big smile appearing on his mouth.
Clove stared into Cato's eyes in disbelief. This was the solution to all their problems. They could both win. Clove squealed and giggled, wrapping her arms around Cato. "We can both go home!" She exclaimed gleefully.
Cato hugged her tightly, burying his face into the crook of her neck. Relieved.
Clove blinked off tears and hugged Cato tighter. "I'm not dreaming, am I?" She asked quietly, leaning her head softly on Cato's.
"No," Cato murmured and held her closer. "We can go home."
Blinking could no longer stop Clove's tears. They could live. Both Cato and the baby could live.
* * *
Cato kissed her cheek gently, he didn't care about the cameras. It was okay now.

Clove let out a small giggle. "We should get some sleep." She said, smiling.
Cato nodded and sat down, pulling her with him gently.
"Someone has to keep watch." Clove said, snuggling into Cato's arms.
"I can," he murmured, leaning against a tree and putting his arm around Clove.
"Thank you." Clove replied. "Wake me up half way, ok?"
"Okay." Cato answered and sighed.
Clove fell asleep easily. Her nightmares were much fewer, now that her and Cato could live. She dreamed that they got back to their district, living a life of luxury while raising their child. It was all so perfect.
Cato was trying to keep his eyes open, he was so tired, but refused to wake Clove seeing as she looked more peaceful sleeping than most nights.
Clove woke up, well rested. It was still dark, but it looked like the sun was going to rise soon. She turned to Cato. "I thought you said you were going to wake me?"
Cato looked at Clove groggily. "You looked peaceful."
"You look tired." Clove replied. "Go to sleep, I'll keep watch."

Nobody's Way
Foreign Thorn: Book 1 For eight centuries, the people of Isla have wanted for nothing. The Creator, Maere, uses Her power not only to keep them healthy and fed, but also to map the direction of each person's future Path - their vocation, role in society, and even the partner they'll spend their life with. In a world where infighting once threatened the very survival of humankind, the old texts say that Maere personally stepped in to help guide Her creations to harmony. All is not well among the people of the northern lands, however, as Jian discovers when she receives her own long-awaited Path. The Creator has chosen to favour some towns, but not others, leading to anarchy and unrest in the east, and fierce distrust between the neighbours who enjoy Her protection and those who don't. After many nights of disturbing premonitions, visions of a face uncannily familiar to her, and a voice beckoning her to "Homeland," Jian decides she needs to find answers for herself. She hires Madrigal, a surly young traveller hailing from an "unblessed" village, to take her to the southern lands. The swordsman is on the run from something, or someone, but Jian has no choice but to trust him. When the two leave the safety of the familiar and meet Quinn, a mysterious boy who seems to know more about Jian than she does about herself, it becomes clear that there are forces besides the old magics, forces completely unknown to the people of Isla, in play. Madrigal and Jian aren't sure if Quinn can be trusted, but they're certain he knows more than he's letting on...

No Easy Mode
Reincarnation isn't easy, Sure you might have a status menu but unlike a video game the training is real, the blood, sweat, and tears are real. Unfortunately for Samuel Erasi Fuller he found out that no amount of video game knowledge can prepare you for a world of skills, attributes and magic and even his top notch survival skills only go so far when there are beasts that shoot fireballs or move like a bolt of lighting. Worse yet there are no levels of skills just a name and description and a percentage display! Edit: Yes the poorly done cover is my personal work. Drawing anything using your finger and an app on your phone was not as easy as the tutorial made it look!

Ode to Fallen Angels
Jericho, the land of humanity, squirms in pain. Magic has been forbidden for so long in this so called "Age of Silence", that all Arcane knowledge has been presumed lost and irrecoverable, and the echoes of God's Will grow fainter with every passing year. The sight of Demihuman caravans is less frequent every day, as the likes of orcs and elves have learned to no longer beg for help from those who despise them. Clearly, they can expect more from the voracious wild lands than from humankind. Many have succumbed to despair, some driven mad by their fruitless efforts to bring back a Golden Age that they only ever read about in books. And in the middle of it all, in an old chapel lost in the Eastern lands, young Gabrielle lives in complete ignorance. She is another orphan living under the mercy of the Church of the Saints; one bearing the mark of evil in her red hair, the telltale sign of a Witch. In an Age of the Silent, the Prejudiced, and the Hateful, she clings to a single hope: that one day, be it in life or maybe after it all ends, she may find herself forgiven of her sin. The sin of being born.
