"What happened to Spence?"Troy asked.
"Spence?"Katherine asked, confused. "Oh you mean Spencer. It's been a couple weeks Troy. A couple of tributes died."She knew Troy and Austin were delighted on the inside to hear the news. However, Troy didn't show his joy.
"You...don't feel upset or anything?"he asked.
"I didn't feel anything for him since the start,"she said sharply.
"I'm sure that's not true,"Troy replied almost immediately.
"You're sharp Troy, but you're wrong this time. Being with him was vital for my survival, but I regret being with him."
"He liked you though,"Troy said persistently.
"He wasn't the only one." Kat grabbed an arrow from her bow and fixed it into her bow. "Now, are you going to tell me where you guys relocated?"
"Next to the small river,"Troy replied.
"That's where my old campsite used to be,"Kat tilted her head.
"I know, we were at the edge of the trees,"Troy said. "You were across from us."
"You stalked me,"Kat said, her lips parted.
"Stalking is too harsh of a word, we merely followed you." He tugged his jacket in a playful manner.
Both of them caught in an intense gaze again. Troy knew Austin was behind them, and in order to make sure Austin wasn't getting the wrong idea about Troy and Kat, he switched the subject. "So your gonna hunt with us or something?"he asked.
"Well since you're here, I can't say no." Kat smiled. She pulled back her bow and Spencer had his knife in his hands. In an instant, Kat heard a cry from where she shot her arrow and Spencer tackled an animal and stabbed it. They ran over to where they heard the cry of pain.
"Well this is depressing,"Troy said when he got there. Troy and Kat killed a mother and a cub buffalo.
"I know..."Kat said.
"How are we gonna get these to our campsite?"Troy asked.
"You mean campsites?"Kat asked, emphasizing the plural form of campsite.
"No, you're going to rejoin us,"Troy said.
"Oh, your commanding me?"Kat sarcastically replied.
"I'm asking you,"Troy sighed.
Kat looked at him with a dissatisfied expression.
"It's been a month Kat,"Troy said his voice dead serious. "Tell me you're coming back."
"When you say it like that.... I can't not say yes,"Kat said.
Troy smirked,"I hate the river, I was thinking of us relocating to another place. Perhaps...something more nostalgic?"
"The lake?"Kat asked.
