Peeta almost tumbles into the muck when Daine switches to crow form and seems to get completely stuck. He loses his balance and plants one hand in the soft earth, but manages to pry it free even as Daine switches form again to an animal he doesn't know. He watches in growing horror and helplessness as she sinks further and hates himself for leaving behind the coil of rope he remembers seeing in the Cornucopia.

When she holds out her bow, Peeta feels a glimmer of hope. Clutching his stick anchor with one hand, he stretches forward again. After a couple of misses, he manages to grab hold of the bow.

"Got it! Hang on!"

He shifts his body even as he pulls the bow, trying to get his feet under him so that he can haul Daine up out of the ground.
