When Russ had finished hanging her clothes on his home made clothes line he went and grabbed his stuff to put it near one of the trees that the line was attached to. He then got it all organised and into a neat pile.

He turned to face her he couldn't help but smile, he stood there frozen for a few seconds, when he came to He walked casually up to her and quickly picked her up and said 'well then, we better get started' before she could escape his grasps Russ walked up to the waters edge and chucked her in. He laughed a little then followed her with a dive.

When they rose he said 'first off ill teach you how not to scare them off and later ill show all the different techniques used in catching fish with your bare hands' he smiled when he saw her face 'i hope i didn't scare you' he later added then laughed again.

^{"I... But... You... And..." Listen spluttered, to surprised to give a real comment. "That was not nice!" she finally got out. Using her arm she pushed a small wave of water toward his face. "There," she smirked. "Payback."

Listen treaded water, looking at him. "Wasn't throwing me into the water a very effective way of scaring the fish off?" She shook her head at him and pushed hair out of her face. "Okay. So lets do this."

Listen smiled, excited. If she could manage to learn how to catch fish without a pole she just might be able to survive better in this godforsaken forest. Not that she was complaining about the forest. She didn't know what she would do without it's cover to protect her.}

Russ wiped the the water that landed on him off of his face, 'um...' he got stuck for words ' i'm showing you how not to scare them off and what would happen if you...jumped in'. he smiled hoping it was convincing.

'Ok, watch carefully' he slowly said. he stood still for a few seconds waiting for the fish to swim back then submerged darted his hand and came up with a largish fish 'Did you see that?' he chucked the fish in his hand up onto the sand. turned back to her, where going to be here a long time he thought to himself

^{Listen rolled her eyes, but laughed. "Okay, sure. Because I'm dumb enough not to know that jumping suddenly on top of them will make the fish swim away." Her voice was mildly sarcastic, but playfull.

Not that it mattered. Rusty had already dived under the water to snatch at a fish. She couldn't help but look amazed when he came up with a decent sized fish in his hands and chucked it onto the beach. "Did you see that?" he asked her.

Listen smiled sheepishly. "Um... No? I wasn't exactly paying attention. But in my deffence," she added, hoping he'd buy it, "I was talking to you, so you should have known I wasn't paying attention to the lesson."}

Russ looked straight down to see if there where any fish at his feet, when he saw there were none he looked back up 'Well you could've fooled me' he laughed then hoped she would take it as a joke.

He thought for a minute then remembered he had two pairs of goggles in his bags, one were his and the other were his dads. He still had his dads because he forgot to drop them off at his house after he finished at the docks, he grabbed both pairs then walked back to the waters edge 'Here' he said chucking his dads pair to her, he did not know if she new what they were or not 'There goggles, they help you see better underwater' he then slowly waded his way to her

^{Listen caught the goggles before they could fall in the water. "I know. I've seen goggles before."

She slipped them on and looked at Russ. "How do I look?" she laughed. After all, goggles weren't an attractive look for anyone. With one last giggle she dove under the water. Everything was so clear. It was pretty. Sure, she'd seen goggles before. Being from District One, things that weren't strictly Capitol goods were, if not common, at least known about. But she'd never had the pleasure of using them.

She came up for air. "These are so cool!" she cried, a childish excitement evident on her face. She turned to face Rusty. "You can see everything."}

Russ put his goggles on, adjusted them then put his head underwater to see if there were any leaks, he looked up and saw that she was enjoying them, she clearly hadn't used them before. 'You look...great' he said jokingly 'I'm glad your enjoying them

'Well that's good then, now you cant miss anything' he later said, he then swam a little further into the lake trying to find a school of fish, dunking his head under every now and then to get a better look, when he found a couple of fish he stopped moving then turned to Listen and whispered 'okay, go down when i go down' He went under darted both of his hands this time catching two, he resurfaced hoping that she saw it that time.

^{"I... saw. That time I really did. I just... I don't get it. Why aren't they afraid of you? Are you part fish or something? Do you speak their language? I mean, why don't they swim away from you. They can't be that fearless, their always swimming away from me."

Listen wasn't making a lot of sense, and she knew it. But that didn't change the fact that she didn't understand. The stupid fish didn't even start swimming away, at least, not seriously, until it was already practically too late.}

Russ laughed at her suggestion of him being part fish and speaking there language. 'Well I'm not to sure why they don't flee' he thought for a second 'I guess its because of the way i move my hand'

he demonstrated it to Listen. He moves his hand like how a fish would swim, until he gets close enough to grab it, he tried to explain, he did not know if she understood but he kept on explaining. 'Ill do it again, this time watch my hands okay?'

he then searched for more fish when he found some he turned facing Listen and put his hand out making a thumbs down sign signalling to go down. when they went down he tried to make it as obvious as possible that his hands moved like fish, he shot his hands only snatching one this time, when they surfaced, he threw it up on the bank 'see?'

^{Listen shrugged. "Maybe? It doesn't seem like there's much to see. It looks more like something you learned through practice. Not the hand motion. That's silly. But, I don't know, just being able to catch them."

Still, Listen obediently brought her hand out of the water and attempted to immitate him. Part of her wondered if he was just trying to make herself look like an idiot to get some laughs, because she certainly felt like she looked stupid.

After a while she looked up at him. "Am I doing it right?"}

Russ started laughing then wondered if he looked that stupid, 'well i have been doing it for nearly 10 years, my dad first showed me when i was six' he then paused and watched her trying to get the motion right 'You nearly got it' he watched her practising a little longer 'as I've said before Practise makes perfect' he then relaxed and laid floating on his back 'Isn't this fun?' he said looking back at her with a smile

^{She laughed with him. "You're making fun of me!"

She shook her head and layed back to float with him. "You're not even teaching anymore." She didn't mind though. She was having fun. And she didn't think she'd ever get the hang of his fishing technique anyway.}

Russ when he laid his head back notice that its was getting dark, 'Oh no' he quietly said 'I've got to get home, i've been out for ages' he swam back to the shore and grabbed his towel dried off and got all his stuff organised.

He soon realised that Listen has really no where to live, he turned to look at her he saw that she was back up on the sand, I cant leave her out here he thought. 'How would you like to come meet my family?... maybe sleep over? hoping she would say yes he looked at her eyes and smiled.

^{Listen started at the suggestion. She hadn't been expecting it. She was quiet a moment, thinking. There were the cons, like getting caught, winding up stuck in an all new District trap, like District One had been, et cetera, et cetera. But then there were the pros. Spending more time with the one good friend she'd had since she was 12, spending the night in a bed (or a couch, or the floor. She didn't care. As long as it wasn't a stupid tree base again, or dirt), food, actual food. And while she had no idea what his home life was like, it had been five years since she last experienced anything near the family feeling. And even if she would just go so she could witness it, that would be more than she could have hoped for.

The pros outweighed the cons in her mind. And while she might have been building herself up for disappointment, she didn't really care at this point. So she flashed Rusty a smile and scrambled up the bank to where her clothes were hanging and pulled them off the line. They weren't even near dry, but she didn't care. After all, District 4 was the fishing district, wasn't it? Surely people got wet there occasionally. "Take down the twine and rewind it?" she asked Russ, pulling on her pants. "If I'm coming with you I've got to pack all my stuff."

She pulled her shirt over he head and plopped onto the ground to pull on her socks and shoes. "Oh! And what should we do with the fish?"}

Russ Packed up her stuff for her whilst she got dressed, he put his bag inside hers because it would easily fit. After she got dressed and ready to leave Russ chucked the bag over his shoulder 'Lets get going' he stopped a second 'oh the fish, he grabbed a small bag out the bigger one and put all the fish in there 'Don't worry' he began 'We won't get in trouble if we get caught with them, everyone has fish on them in district 4'

Russ put the fish in the bigger bag and hung it over his shoulder and they began walking. Russ told Listen about district 4 that it smells like fish 24/7 and that most of the houses have a beach front view perfect for when the sun sets. He then began talking about his family, he didn't want to say much about them, he didn't want to make Listen sad, he just told her that his dad, Michael, is a fishaholic and his mum ,Sandra, loves to cook and jobless. His family are not poor or rich. He described his house, it has a small kitchen and a dinning area, 2 bedrooms, one bathroom, the overall size is not very big but they get by. There house is in one of the many perfect spots, view wise.

The conversation made time fly they were less then 10 minutes away from District four, They could see it on the horizon, but Russ did not like what he saw. He saw 2 peace keepers talking on the outside of the fence only about 10 metres away from the hole, Russ was hoping that they did not see it and that they didn't block it, he took Listens hand and dart into a nearby bush, told Listen to stay there, he gave the bag to her, he then quietly snuck up to the closest tree scaled it and watched the peace keepers, soon enough they walked in the opposite direction of the whole, when they were far enough away he let out a sigh of relief and walked back to Listen letting her know that its safe, they quickly ran across the open and straight into the hole.
