To Kill a Mockingjay

by Ivy Blackwell

It has been two years since the rebellion ended. Two years of peace in Panem. And the Capitol wants revenge. President Snow's granddaughter is on a mission to bring down Katniss and the rebels, to take over Panem once again, and to bring back the Games. And this time someone else is being used against Katniss. Someone the Mockingjay loves a lot more than Peeta.

1. Chapter 1

Author's Note: I don't own The Hunger Games or any of the characters. So...I hope you like it! :)

CHAPTER ONE

Katniss' POV:

I sit on the couch reading a book I randomly pulled from the shelf. Nothing interesting. A boring biography about some famous scientist who's name I can't pronounce.

I would go to the woods instead, but Peeta should be home from the bakery at any moment and he would be worried if he didn't find me at home.

I slam my book shut and put it back onto the dusty shelf and then plop back onto the cream colored couch.

Then I start thinking about a lot of "what ifs'? What I had chosen Gale? Would my life have be less boring? Probably. What if the rebellion didn't happen. Would the Games still be going on? Or would a rebellion start up without me anyway? What if I was the only Hunger Games victor and Peeta had died? Would I feel guilt to this day? What if there was a way I could have saved Prim? Would the Capitol still have killed her as my punishment? What if the Capitol come back to power?

"RIIIIIIING!" the phone rings interrupting my thoughts.

"Hello?" I speak into the phone

"Hi, Katniss! It's Delly." she says

"Oh, hi Delly. What's wrong?" I ask

"Turn on the TV to channel 53." she tells me then hangs up.

Hm...that's weird.

I pick up the remote and turn on the TV, flipping through channel until I find channel 53. A bunch of buzzing and static sound erupt. I cover my ears as many pictures flash back and forth, like a battle between two people try to broadcast different things on the same channel. I instantly think if the rebels two years ago trying to broadcast my message on TV by hacking into the Capitol.

Finally, I girl about the age of 30 with blonde hair that's almost white appears on TV. Someone finally won the TV battle.

"Hello," she says, "My name is Jessie Snow. Yes, the late President Snow's grand daughter. I am here from the Capitol with a special guest. I'm sure many of you will recognize her."

After she finishes talking, the camera's turn to a girl and I let out a gasp.

The girl is a little taller than when I last saw her, but otherwise unchanged. It can't be her. But their features are so alike. No, I'm wrong. It is her.
