Autumn Summerleaf

Where'd you go
I miss you so
seems like its been forever
since you've been gone

The forest is silent except for the occasional whirr sound of chainsaws in the distance and the chop chop of axes of those who don't have chainsaws. An icy wind bruhes against my dark hair and my breath mists in front of me. Winters here at last I think. I love winter, especially when it snows. The forests of district 7 look so beautiful. My feet crunch on the frosty ground as I wander through the woods. This is what I do on a regular basis because it helps to clear my mind. I breathe in a cold breath and icy air rushes into my lungs. It feels so refreshing, at least I find it refreshing. Most other people don't find it refreshing for some reason. A mockingjay calls in the frigid air and I sing a few notes to it, my voice clear and beautiful. The mockingjays fall silent as i sing and I enjoy every minute of it. I sing a tune my brother used to sing to me before he left the district. As I finish, I feel a pang of longing as the song is bounced around the forest, the melodies and harmonies all matching beautifully. Memories of my brother fill my mind as the songs come to an end. I miss him, I hope he's alright I think. Just then I see someone else walking through the forest. I smile and head towards the person. "Hello" I call to the person. They turn at my voice.

Cynthia "Cindy" Grant

Many people liked wandering through the woods for any one of a myriad of reasons. Some were hard at work, some just wanted to be surrounded by trees. For some it was a quiet place, a quick getaway, an escape. For the girl widely known as Cindy Grant, her reason for walking through this section of the forest was far simpler. It was a shortcut and the fastest way to get to where she was going. Where was that? Well, she had heard something about a kegger at the old Breyer's place and it was something she felt a need to look into. Let the other denizens of the district wallow in their self-pity and their need to talk mess about lives that were none of their business.

Were their own lives really so pitiful that they had nothing better to do than complain about the activities of others? Was it so hard to get a life of their own? Cynthia suspected that it was. But then, was her own life really all that more interesting by comparison? Trudging along in one of her favorite dresses complete with vapid jewelry and a touch of make-up, Cynthia hoped that she wouldn't run into any of her brothers. If Colin, misguided though he was, knew where she was headed then he'd likely attempt to dissuade her, which would only lead to the same arguments they always had. But why would she listen to him anyway?

Its not like she ever listened to... to... Well. That didn't really matter anymore did it? Curtis was dead and gone and there was no sense in letting herself dwell about it. Losing her footing on a rather large root, she stumbled forward before catching herself. Surprisingly, she heard someone call out a greeting from somewhere behind her and she turned to look. It was another girl, around the same age as her or perhaps a little younger who just seemed to be traipsing along in the woods without a care in the world."Yes? Did you want something?" she called out in an irritated tone.
