A New Beginning
A/N: Hello beautiful people! This is the third installment of my previous fanfics An Alternate Universe (The Hunger Games) and The Aftermath. It's gonna be kind of hard to follow this story if you haven't read the previous ones. However they're each over twenty chapters long, and if you don't have time for that I understand ;). You can always shoot me a PM and I'll explain to you anything you don't understand. I know I've taken FOREVER to write this. I work three jobs and go to college full time. SO not much time to write fanfic. But I promise since the holidays are coming up I'll have more time to write and upload. Please enjoy and I'll try to update every day :). Remember reviews are love but favorites and follows warm my heart as well. xo
Chapter 1:
Last part of last story: Snow handed Katniss and Henry (if you don't remember Henry is an OC I made who won the 75th Hunger Games) a blue folder, an assassin folder. She says "It's starting again." Reminder that story unless otherwise stated is in Katniss' point of view.
I look at Henry with suspension as I open the folder slowly. It's a long list of names bunched up in paragraphs. I don't recognize any of them, thankfully. Each group of names has a bold print title on top of them. A District and a number or the Capitol. It doesn't take long for me to realize that these will be people Henry and I will have to kill all these people. Henry must make the same realization because he speaks and says, "Mr. President, sir… you want us to everyone on the list. I mean they're must be over 75 names on here." President Snow chuckles and says, "My dears, not death. Torture mostly. I just need information out of them. If they refuse, then of course death would be the only option."
Personally I don't think it would be the only option but we are talking about President Snow here. Driver enters the room again, though I don't recall when he left. He has four suitcases two pink and two blue. How gender specific? He clears his throat and says, "We have packed your suitcases for you. It contains special clothing and items you'll need for your missions." I shake my head and say, "With all due respect Snow… I don't think either of us know how to torture anyone. It's not as simple as killing." Snow nods and says, "Of course, but just like killing it can be taught. You will spend a couple of weeks in the Capitol learning how to do exactly what I want you to do."
Henry cleared his throat and said, "You want us to learn how to torture people? I don't think that'll be needed. We can just start whenever you need us." I looked up in shock at Henry. He could speak for himself but I was in no way prepared for this. I started speak up, "But Henry I-" He cut me a glare and said, "KATNISS. It's not necessary to go to the Capitol." He looked like he wanted to say more but with Snow and Driver there, what could he say? He looked at Snow and asked, "When do we leave?" Snow smiled and said, "Friday Morning. 48 hours from now." Henry nodded and said, "Well if there's nothing else to say I'd like to spend that time with my family then." He shook both of their hands and grabbed both of his suitcases and walked out of my room and out of my house. Snow gave me a sickly smile and said, "Well it seems your friend will be able to help you out in this course of action I suppose." I give him a fake smile and say, "I guess I'll see you Friday." It was more of a dismissal then anything.
After Driver and Snow left my home, I sat there on my bed going over everything that just happened. Personally, I thought torture was worse than death since death was quick and peaceful. Torture had you begging for death that would never come and if it did it was painful. And since when did Henry become an expert in torture? Was it less complicated than i was making it? Or was he really trying to avoid going back to the Capitol? I had all these questions I needed answered that probably never would be, at least not in the next 48 hours. I sigh and walk downstairs to tell my family that I'll be leaving again.
A/N: So what do y'all think? Is it a good start? I know it kind of seems repetitive from the last time but I promise you it'll get better. Also this story like always will have a Hunger Games. :) Thanks for reading, see y'all next time xo.
