Juliet looked at her radiophone and sighed. She had planned on going to the farm settlement that morning, which would have taken her back up to Crossroads anyway, but as she started up the road, tucking her phone into her pocket, she had a feeling she might not get there. Not that it mattered too much, as Jake and Neytiri had found a heap more fresh fruit and edible plants, and Micha had found the storm shelter cave the day before, packed full of supplies. There was always tomorrow. Or the next day.

As she finally topped the eastern edge of the caldera she glanced south, wondering what Jake and Neytiri would be finding, now that they had their ikran. She grinned to herself and walked over the final rise, rounding the bend the track, as it was at this point, took through the boulders, then paused again as she looked down across the huge bowl. The air was so clear she could see the tiny figure swimming, and was a little relieved Annie was still there.

It was a relatively easy run, covering the distance across the floor of the crater to the buildings. Juliet stuck her head inside the door of the round building where the rings were housed, and couldn't see anyone. She closed the door and walked around to the white sandy beach that ran along the edge of the lake.

"Hi there," she called out, waving to the girl out in the water.

	Well I won that bet with myself! Yipee! Juliet nodded. "You get yourself dry and dressed, sweetheart, I'll wait for you over in the room with the rings. When you're ready you head over there and we'll go and see the beach, yeah?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Annie nodded, and went into the room to get dressed, putting on the flowy blue beach dress, but leaving off all shoes. She liked being barefoot. Then she went back out to Juliet, smiling a little. "Will Finnick be able to find us there?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Let's hope so!" Juliet said, not willing to lie, either way. She started across the road, back to the round building where the rings were. "All I know is that when you find a place to stay, in one of the places down there, all your things show up from wherever you were." She shrugged a shoulder. "At least they have for those of us who've arrived so far," she added. "Even Jake and Neytiri's ikran showed up," she added, "a day after they did, but still, they're here now!" Out of habit, still, she looked both ways as they crossed the road, silently laughing at herself, and for a brief moment wondering what had happened with Connor. She made a mental note to give him a call on the radio once she had settled Annie in down at the beach.

"I don't really have any things," she said, fidgeting a little. "Not since the Capitol took me and tortured me and then they rescued me from them and took me back to Finnick. I don't need things, I just need him."

She couldn't seem to stop wringing her hands as she looked at the woman. She was confused, and scared, and more than anything she just wanted Finnick to show up and hug her and tell her everything was going to be okay.

	As they were crossing the road the radio crackled with a call from Connor. Juliet laughed as she pulled the unit from her back pocket and replied. (Reply to this) (Parent)
