[ Unless the purpose were to observe you for information or entertainment.
That comment from Axel's daemon has Katniss's blood running cold, her face blanching somewhat even in the warm sunshine. Whether Axel manages to catch the look that flutters across her face before the owl takes up into the air, however, is up for debate. Her stomach clenches and twists uncomfortably, bile burning the back of her throat as she wonders if maybe this is some kind of version of the Games. Only instead of people knowingly being reaped from districts across Panem, they unknowingly get thrown in from different worlds.
It makes her want to tear her own daemon apart to teach whatever's behind this a lesson. But for now she needs it, needs to focus on the aerial view she's getting to find Axel.
Honestly it's kind of a miracle that Katniss snaps back to attention in time to catch a glimpse of the view, to notice a few distinct landmarks. By the time Axel's daemon returns to him, she's walking determinedly toward the trees again, although this time there's an obvious and uneasy tension to her shoulders and she looks back at her daemon more often than she had even moments before. ]
I think I can find you, [ she says when she turns to look at Cinnad again and sees Axel's face on the feed once more. She's still looking a bit sallow, her gaze flicking to Cinnad rather than the feed for a moment and then meeting Axel's gaze again. ] Just don't move.
