Chapter 1

I looked around the barren landscape. There wasn't very much left of district 12, just some smoldering ruins. A chill ran down my spine as I realized how much my home resembled the charred buildings in district 13. I headed to the only buildings still standing, the Victors Village. I ran into my house.

Everything here is blissfully unchanged. I open my bag and began to fill it with things my mother and Prim didn't have time to grab, my parents wedding photo, my fathers hunting jacket, a spare archery set, some of my moms precious jewelry, and a few changes of clothes for myself. I walk up to my bedroom and sit down on my bed. That's when I see it, a white rose sitting on my windowsill. I cautiously picked it up to sniff it. It was fresh, that much was clear. I breathed in the sickeningly sweet scent.

The rose dropped to the floor. Snow. He had been here, he had left that rose.
I leapt from the bed and tore down the stairs. I was just at my door when I felt a pain in my leg and everything went black.


When I opened my eyes I was in an unfamiliar room. It was a prison cell, small and dark with only a bunk bed and a small stool.
I sat up, noticing a figure sitting in the far corner. The figure was big and bulky with messy blonde hair. I saw a flash of silver and I squinted to see. Was it a metal cuff? Was it a weapon that he was going to use on me? I squinted harder and drew back in shock. It wasn't a cuff or a weapon, it was a metal leg.

I hope you liked it. Please Please PLEASE review
