[Another rag-wrapped arrow is swept through fire and put to the string in one smooth movement as Katniss spins to face this new threat. Her fingers twitch, but she stops herself from loosing at the last moment. She recognises this person.

The arrow hits the ground, and she stamps out the flames before it burns through the fuel. She only has a limited amount of supplies, after all] No. Stomach bug. [The flat tone she says it in makes it pretty clear she doesn't expect to be believed, but she's not going to tell the truth, either. She can't afford to give away too many weaknesses. or any]

[ Natasha stops immediately, holding up her free hand and dropping the barrel of her gun away and to one side, though her body's tense - she understands the jumpiness, but anyone who's not Clint pointing a weapon at her puts her nerves on edge, and she only relaxes once the arrow's off the string. She watches Katniss for a second longer, smiling faintly at her response, before glancing over her shoulder for any sign of the creatures. There are shouts and sounds of struggle from a block or two away, but nothing in the direct line of sight. ]

We should get off the street. They're attracted to noise. [ A glance at the fire. ] And light. Do you have somewhere secure to go?

setting this before the peeta thread!

[Katniss' entire body is on edge, survival instinct finely tuned. There are differences, though. She's not as fast as she used to be, not as prepared. Easy living has dulled that edge, something that she had almost begun to think was a good thing.

At least she hasn't killed any real people, yet. Looking at the charred husk nearby, Katniss doesn't let herself think about how close she's come] What's secure and what isn't? They can open doors. [She shakes her head] I need to find Peeta.

Not if they're locked and barricaded...

[ Natasha sighs softly. She understands - if Clint were still here... That doesn't mean she's exactly pleased with the idea of fellow foreigners running around in this. There's only so many of them, and she'd rather not lose anyone. ]

Do you know where he is? He could be safe in his suite right now, so you going looking for him... may not be the best idea.

No, I don't know where he is. [If she sounds agitated, that's why] I can't take that risk. He's not - he can't be on his own, oaky? Especially not during something like this.
