Since Jace has been eating so much rich food, it feels great going back to her roots. The squirrel gushes with flavor, it running down her throat and into the acid pit people call the stomach.

Despite wanting to eat the rest of it, she holds back, deciding to give the rest to Rue, who sits beside her in the large tree they've used as a shelter.

" Here."

" No, it's okay," Rue denies, eating the little bits of meat left on the bone.

" If you don't want it, I'll just throw it," Ace sighs dramatically, winding her arm back to chuck it across the arena.

" Fine! Fine!" the girl exclaims quietly, pulling the food from the elder's hands. " We can't waste it," she states, a pout on her lips. However, it disappeared as soon as she takes another bite of the squirrel.
