Authors note- Ok so thank you for anyone who read my other story The 74th Annual Hunger Games-Peeta's POV. So because of all of you guys I will be continuing it! So if you haven't yet, please go check that out. Here is a new story in Keegan Primrose Mellark's POV. So I hope u like it! So without further ado. (did I spell that wrong? I don't know, but you know what I mean ;)
I wake up to hear screams. My mom's screams of course. It's not like this is a rare occasion. Her nightmares haunt her everyday, whether it's about her sister whom I'm named after or her time in the Hunger Games. Her screams soon die down because dad probably brought her back down to earth, and I settle down and try to go to sleep. What a fail. Its 6 o clock in the morning, there's no point in going to sleep now. I get up from my bed and slip into my hunting boots and jacket. I pull my hair up in a ponytail and make my way downstairs careful not to wake my 8 year old brother Ash, an exact replica of my dad. He is such a good kid; I would do anything to protect him.
Who am I? I'm Keegan Primrose Mellark. Keegan meaning fire and Prim after my aunt, who is the most caring person in the world. I am the 15 year old daughter of Katniss Everdeen, girl on fire and Peeta Mellark, lover boy. The famous victors of the 74th Hunger games and rebellion leaders. Everyone says I look just like my mom, but act like my dad, although I didn't get his talents. I am an amazing hunter, but can't draw for my life or bake for that matter. But I can move a crowd with my words, just like my dad did in his games on the videos my parents showed me.
I walk out the door and through victors' village in district 12. The cold snowflakes hit my face as I march through the 5 inch high snow. I pass Haymitch's dirty house, he is like a grandfather to me. I also pass Posy, Rory, and Vicks house. They moved back a while after a rebellion and so did Gale and Johanna with their 16 year old son Ryder. Just thinking about him makes my heart skip a beat. I have loved him ever since he moved here when he was 5. Last year while Ryder and I were hunting, he told me he loved me and I of course told him I love him back. Since then we have been in love. Judging by the footprint tracks leading from his door to the sidewalk, he is already waiting for me in the woods.
I make my way through the rebuilt district twelve and past the meadow that leads to the forest. My mom told me there used to be a fence here, but now were just free to go into the woods whenever we want. My silent footsteps run through the icy woods. The snow in here isn't as high, probably because of the trees blocking the sky. I pass by a few of Ryder's snares on the way, he probably learned from Gale. Then I approach our spot. I see Ryder sitting on a fallen tree and my heart flutters. He doesn't see me though because I'm behind him. I attempt to sneak up on him, but he turns around before my surprise attack.
"You may hunt like your mother Keeg, but you walk like your dad," Ryder jokes.
I try to scowl, but fail miserably and end up laughing, "Hey, it's not my fault!" I laugh as I sit down next to him. I must have been shivering because he pulls me into his lap and wraps his strong arms around me. I nestle my head into his strong chest. We just sit there for a while enjoying each others company before he breaks the silence.
"Did you hear about what happened to President Paylor?" He asks with a nervous tone.
"No, what's wrong?" I ask curiously.
"You know how all the Capitol people don't really like her because she replaced the other President Snow years ago?" I nodded, motioning for him to continue. Why would the Capitol people like her? They used to be royalty and now they are treated like everyone else. "Well some of the Capitol people formed a group and had planned to bring her down and their plan worked. They had poisoned her food and she isn't doing well."
I couldn't hold back my gasp. "What will happen if she dies?" I ask nervously.
"Then Annabelle Snow, President Snow's granddaughter and leader of the group who poisoned Paylor, will take over. Which can only mean one thing."
I know before he even has the chance to say the word that will turn my world upside down, "Revenge."
Ok so I hope you liked it and if not I would appreciate your constructive criticism. And I wasn't sure if her name was Paylor. If not I'm sorry. :) Revieww3
