Hey guys, here we have Batmarus and I's newest contribution which was his idea and includes Destiny who still belongs to XxKissMyEyesAndLayMeToSleepxX. District 0 is not required to this and they are separate realities but without it you might be pretty confused for the first few chapters. Your choice though unless you're already awesome.

Clove's eyes widen as Thresh made his way towards her with a rock to size of a small loaf of bread, "CATO!" She screeched. "Cato!" She could hear Cato's response but she knew he was too far as Thresh slammed the rock against her temple. She was still alive but just barely and with her hearing messed up from the hit Thresh might as well have been talking back in District 11. It felt like an eternity until everything dissolved away and the cannon went off.

Then she was surprised when the world began to reappear around her slowly forming into a silver covered room. She lay on a table in the middle strapped down. "What?" She inquired looking around while fighting against her restraints.

"Are you awake yet Clove?" asked a voice she had not heard in just over a year.

"Kawino?" She asked looking toward him. "What's going on? Are we in Hell?"

"Not even close," He said pushing a button and releasing her.

"Well, there's no way I went to heaven so would you care to explain?"

"You are in the Capital!" Her twin brother said.

She was extremely confused but went along with it. "Alright, what are we doing in the Capitol?"

"Well, there is a long story to that," Kawino sighed sitting down.

"Alright, I'm listening." Clove said sitting up so they're at the same level.

"Well the Capital is always afraid of another rebellion, so in an effort to prepare for that every person they feel would be an asset from the Games do not really die, they are taken healed and the live here in secret the sole condition is that everyone keep in shape mentally and physically, you do that and you get to live here and not have to pay for a thing. The whole upper class of the Capitals taxes go to us it's the best kept secret," Kawino said.

"But doesn't that mean that if there is another rebellion then we'd have to help the Capitol win it?"

"Yeah, basically," Kawino sighed.

"Great," Clove sighed then smacked him on the back of his head.

"Ouch! What was that for?" He asked.

"For giving up in the arena, not only was that torture for me to watch but you could have gotten me KILLED."

"I made sure you would be okay, I made sure the one person I was left with was the one with the most brutal weapon, even in my last moments I thought of you." Kawino said.

Clove sighed, "Why? Why did you make sure the one person you were left with was the one with the most brutal weapon? Why didn't you at least try fight back instead of lying there as if you were already dead?"

"Because I was at least internally, I couldn't take it anymore Clove even if I had won it would have made your life worse,"

Now that was certainly surprising, "You did that for me?"

"Of course I did," Kawino said.

Not sure what to say Clove just pulled him into a hug. "I missed you," She said.

"I missed you, too, Clover." Kawino said returning it.

"Don't do that again," She said.

"Alright, I swear I won't." Kawino promised.

"Really?" Shea asked.

"Really," he promised.

"Okay, okay," She said trying to calm down.

"Is there anyone else brought back that I would know?" Clove asked.

"Well Marvel, and Cato would come here should he loses," Kawino said.

"Well, then ironic as ever, I hope he loses."

"Me too, but he has to lose in the right way, oh yeah and the upper ring of the Capital and some of their friends know about us, but are sworn to silence."

"Alright, good to know."

"Want to look around?" He asked.

"Yes please."

"Well then get some new clothes," Kawino said as a closet came out of the wall.

"I will meet you outside," He said.

"Alright," She said as he left and she looked through the options. She settled for jeans (something she had never seen), and a red short sleeved shirt. "Interesting," she observed once they were on.

"Comfy," She said heading out.

"Nice choice," Kawino said looking it over.

"Thank you," She said smiling.

"Now, let's show you around." Kawino said and started walking.

"So, we can journey anywhere in the Capital?" Clove asked.

"Well not the poorer parts of it, but anywhere else," Kawino said.

"That's so cool." Clove said.

"Yeah, it's amazing here," Kawino said.

"I can imagine it would be."

"Do you want to live with me or one your own?" Kawino asked.

"With you if you don't mind."

"Of course I don't mind," Kawino said smiling.

Clove was surprised when a fairly short and almost normal looking teenage girl came up she was fairly short, had shoulder length white hair, blue eyes, and natural fair skin. "Hey Kawino, who's this?"

"Destiny this is my sister Clove, Clove this is my girlfriend, Destiny Snow," Kawino said.

"Snow? As in, President Snow?"

"Yeah, he's my dad," She said smiling as she hugged Kawino.

"Oh, I didn't even realize he was married. Well, it's nice to meet you."

"Nice to meet you too," She said shaking Clove's hand.

"So, what's it like being his daughter?" Clove asked.

"Not as great as you might think," She said.

"Well, what's wrong with it?" Clove asked.

"He's not exactly...loving," Destiny said.

"Oh, I guess I could have guessed that. I'm sorry to hear that."

"My mom's even worse though." Destiny sighed. "And almost everyone's too scared of them to even talk to me."

"What's with your mom?" Clove asked.

"She… insane, to say the least. The again, she'd have to be to marry him."

"So how are you so normal?" She asked.

She hesitated on that then said, "I'm not sure? Maybe because I hate them so much so I don't want to be like them."

"Well, I guess that makes sense," Clove said.

"Besides, I'm sure you're not like your parents."

"No, not even a little," Clove said shuddering.

"Wait how did you...?" Clove started to ask.

"Kawino told me." She said sympathetically.

"Oh, okay" She sighed.

"I'm so sorry you two had to go through that."

"It's not your fault,"

"I know but still, it must have been really terrible for you guys."

"Yeah, but we had each other and Cato," Clove said.

"Well, that's good then." Destiny said thoughtfully.

"So, you and my brother?" Clove asked.

"Yeah," Destiny said nervous as to what she'll say.

"How did this happen?" She asked.

"Well, first of all, at the end of every games there's this party held for any of the 'new recruits' as they are called." Destiny said before going into flashback.

Cue Flashback

Destiny was sitting in the pristine Ballroom of their home. She was bored she hated these things, but as the president's daughter she was forced to go. One of the big reasons she hated these things was the boys of the Capitals upper class hitting on her so she had hidden herself away in a corner of the large room. She looked around briefly and noticed a boy around her age near the edge of the party and fairly close to her but he didn't notice her yet he just stood there looking extremely confused like he has no idea what to do. She unfortunately recognized him as the newest one. The last tribute to die in the 73rd games. Deciding that it would be better than sitting around alone. She made his way over. "Hi," She said.

He turned to her kind of awkwardly, "Um… hi."

"You're Kawino Yetter right?" She asked noticing his blush as he looked at her.

"Yes, that me."

"Well, it's nice to meet you, my name's Destiny." She said purposefully leaving out her last name for now not wanting to drive him away because of it.

"Nice to meet you, Destiny," he said offering his hand to shake.

She shook it with a small smile, "Are you okay, you seem a little lost."

"I am incredibly lost," he said

"Well, maybe I could help you." Destiny offered, "What are you lost on?"

"So, what exactly is this...thing we are at?" He asked.

"It's a party," Destiny answered knowing they have a lot less extravagant ones occasionally in all the districts, too but noticed that wasn't help him, "Haven't you ever been to one? Just, a lot smaller?"

"Uh, no actually I can't say I have," He said.

"Really? Well, you at least know what one is right?"

"Not really, no," He said.

"Well, it's a group of people that's intended to be enjoyable and is traditional to celebrate something."

"Oh...okay," He said awkwardly.

"I'd help you with what to do at one but I've just been hiding in that corner so, sorry." She said awkwardly.

"Just like me," He said.

"Guess us outcasts need to stick together." She said with a slight giggle.

"Yeah, I guess we do," He said smiling.

She however frowned for a second frowned realizing that it would be unfair for them to go any further without him knowing the truth, "There's something I really need to tell you first."

"Sure what is it?" He asked.

"Well, it's perfectly understandable if you don't want to associate with me any more after this, most people don't but…" she took a deep breath and just let it fly off, "I'm President Snow's daughter."

"Really you are? I didn't even know he had a family," Kawino said.

"Yeah, most people outside of upper and some middle class Capitol don't but it is unfortunately the truth.

"You don't seem happy," He said.

"You're observational skills are impeccable." She said with a sigh.

"Well, what's wrong?" He asked.

"Ah, where on earth to start."

"Anywhere, I can listen," Kawino said as they sat on one of the corner couches.

"Well, first of all, as you can imagine President Snow is the best father a girl could ever ask for." She said quietly her voice absolutely gushing with sarcasm.

"Really?" He asked.

"That was sarcasm," she corrected. "Are you familiar with the term?"

"No," He said.

"Well, it when something's so obvious so kind of in a joking way you say the exact opposite but it usually carries a very particular tone."

"Okay, got it," He said.

"So, in translation, he's an absolutely terrible father."

"Well, my parents aren't great either," Kawino said.

"Really? What were they like?" Destiny asked worriedly.

"Well, they forced me and my sister to train whenever we were not sleeping, eating, or going to reapings," He said.

"Oh my gosh, that's terrible." She gasped looking at him.

"Well it's all I know," He said.

"That only makes it worse, Kawino."

"Sorry," He shrugged.

Destiny sighed, "It's not your fault. Was there anything else?"

"Well yeah, but let's talk about you," he said.

"Why me?" She asked. "You obviously have problems, too."

"I'm used to others not really caring," He shrugged.

"So am I, so share."

"What if we go back and forth?" He offered.

"Fair enough. I guess it's my turn. Well, since everyone's afraid of my parents they never really want to be near me. Except those creeps." She said glaring at one of the 'creeps'.

Kawino turned seeing some boys his own age except dressed...fancier. "Who are they?" He asked.

"Just some upper class Capitol boys who keep hitting on me." She said rolling her eyes.

"That's not good?" He asked.

"Yeah, like I said, they're just little creeps."

"Well I'm sorry then," He said.

"Yeah, your turn."

"Well, growing up I was trained for the games constantly since I could walk,"

"Really that early?" Destiny asked surprised by that.

"Yeah, that early it started with escaping traps that got more and more dangerous as I got older," He said. Destiny had no idea what to say to that. "Yeah, it was...rough to put it lightly," He said.

"How did you put up with it?"

"I had Clove, and Cato, and Cady," Kawino said.

"Well that's good, I have Yizziki. You'll have to meet her some time."

"I will," He said.

"You'd like her. She's pretty much the exact opposite of everything you'd expect a Capitol citizen to be like. She's not here though. She basically tries to avoid anything having to do with The Hunger Games."

"Can't blame her," Kawino chuckled.

One of the snobs Destiny had pointed out broke off from his friends and went over to the two looking very disapprovingly, "Tsk, tsk, tsk, Destiny SNOW, what in the good name of the Capitol is someone of your stature doing with..." He looked Kawino over with a scowl, "a common street rat."

"We're talking," Destiny said defensively as Kawino glared.

"Well, why don't you talk with someone a little more, suitable?" He said sitting on the arm of the couch next to her.

"I think I know who I want to talk to," She said.

"Now go away," Kawino said.

"How about you go away." He countered to Kawino.

"Oh, very wise listen walk away, before this becomes an issue," Kawino said.

The boy was soon surrounded by ten very large and strong men. "Now again you leave," He said smirking.

"You think I'm afraid of these guys?" Kawino asked returning the smirk and getting to his feet.

"You were asked to leave," One of the men said.

"So was he," Kawino said stepping towards them.

One of them swung his fist. Kawino caught it and twisted the man's back and used the first man as a shield and shoved him into two other men.

"Three down seven to go," Kawino said.

None of the other's seemed to want to try after that but the boy demanded, "Don't just stand there! GET HIM!"

"Oh good my fun isn't over," Kawino said jumping over a kick and landing a kick to, two other men's faces breaking both men's noses before landing on the third man's leg.

"Six down, four left," Kawino smirked. He delivered a blow on another one's knee shattering his patella and did the same to the other.

"And then there were two," Kawino said dashing at them knocking one out with a knee to the head before twisting in midair and kicking the last on in the back of the had knowing these two now had concussions now as they fell.

"So, that's it?" Kawino asked looking around. The boy was shocked to say the least then Kawino turned to him and he ran. "There, problem solved," Kawino said smiling.

"VERY impressive, Mr. Yetter. Can't say I'm surprised though."

They both turned to see President Snow staring down at them.

"Thank you sir?" Kawino said carefully.

"That actually was intended as I said. I knew you were a good choice to be brought back." Snow clarified, "The program in general actually."

"Right," Kawino said turning to Destiny as the people cheered.

"That was extremely impressive." Destiny noted.

"Thank you, glad I could help rid you of a pest," Kawino said.

"You're welcome, and thank you for doing that for me."

"Well it's my pleasure," Kawino said.

"Why?" She asked.

"Well, you were nice to me, no one is ever nice to me other than my sister," Kawino said.

"Well, that's just the kind of person I am. What about Cato and Cady though?"

"Well, them too," He said smiling.

"Well, I'm glad to be able to add to the list."

"Me too," He said blushing.

"My list is a lot shorter." She sighed.

"Well you have me," He said smiling and gently taking her hand.

"And Yizziki, that's plenty enough." Destiny said returning the smile.

"You don't think I'm useless?" He asked.

She was shocked at that to say the least, "No, why would I think that?"

"I was always told that," He shrugged.

"Don't listen to them." Destiny said serious. "You are not useless in any form of the word."

"Really?" He asked.

"Yes, really. You're amazing actually."

"No, not really, you are though," He said blushing deeper.

"You just single handedly and unarmed took down ten large bodyguards. How is that not amazing?"

"I did it too slow, it took me five minutes," He said.

She sighed leaning against his chest, "Boy, they really did get you good."

"I guess," He said not used to a girl being this close, but allowing her to stay leaning against him.

"They're wrong, Kawino. So, wrong. Besides, most of that time was spent taunting them."

"Well I suppose," He said as a slow song came on.

This confused Kawino, "What's this?"

"It's a slow dance; you have no clue what that is do you?" She asked smiling up at him.

"Not a clue."

"Well a slow dance is usually reserved for couples and family or good friends to dance to together," She said.

"Oh," Kawino said and looked over to those who were dancing, "That's pretty cool I guess."

"Yeah...I never really had anyone to dance with at these things," She said.

"Well… maybe we could try and… dance together." Kawino suggested awkwardly.

"You would dance with me?" She asked.

"Yeah, why wouldn't I?" He asked.

"Well with my father being who he is and all," She said awkwardly.

"I don't care about that." He said taking her hand.

"You really don't?" She asked leading him to the dance floors edge.

"Really," he said with a small smile. She led him onto the floor and taught him the general slow dance, as she leaned on him. "This is nice." Kawino said holding her close as they danced.

"I could get used to it," Destiny said smiling.

As the song ended, he wasn't sure what brought him to do it, he'd never done it himself before but he has seen Clove do it with Cato. Without really thinking it through, he leaned in until his lips connected to hers. She was surprised and for a second he was worried until she began to kiss back wrapping her arms around his neck and pulling him close as she could to herself. Now Kawino knew exactly why Clove liked this so much. The feeling of her lips against his. It was indescribable. Not wanting to push this too far Destiny kept her tongue in her own mouth for the time being.

They had to separate for air though and they were both smiling but blushing deeply, "Um… sorry about that." Kawino said awkwardly.

"Don't be I loved that," She said honestly

"Well… so did I."

"So, Kawino does this mean what I think it does?" She asked.

"Only if you want it to." Kawino said blushing even worse.

"I would love that, I would really love that," She said smiling.

"Then yes, we are." Kawino said his smile growing.

"Good," She said before kissing him.

End Flashback

Clove looked deep in thought reviewing the information, "Alright, I approve, but if you ever hurt him there will be no force on earth that could save you."

"Of course, I would expect nothing less, but why would I?" She asked smiling.

"Hopefully there's no answer to that question." Clove said simply.

"I hope not," Destiny said hugging Kawino.

He hugged her back and said to his sister, "I'm sure she won't."

"Well, you both do seem happy, and you have been dating for I guess almost a year now?" Clove asked.

"Yes we have." Destiny said happily.

"Well then, I see no problems coming do you live with him?" Clove asked.

"Oh boy do I wish. Then I would have finally left that stupid mansion for good but he still has custody over me until I'm eighteen."

"How old are you?" Clove asked.

"Sixteen," She said.

"So your older than us?" Clove asked.

"Just by a year." She said.

"Well that is interesting," Clove said.

"Not really, she's the same age as your boyfriend." Kawino reminded.

"That's why it's interesting," Clove said.

"Well, I guess so." He shrugged.

"Still surprising," Clove said.

"Did you ever actually meet this Yizziki girl?" Clove asked Kawino.

"Yeah she's awesome," Kawino said.

"Do you think I could?" Clove asked.

"Sure we can stop there on the way home," Kawino said.

"I'd like that, so, where do you live?" Clove asked.

"A small two bedroom, two bathroom house about two blocks from here," Kawino said.

"That sounds nice and no crazy traps?" Clove asked joking mostly.

"Not a single one there is a workout room though and what they call a pool," Kawino said.

"What's that?" Clove asked.

"It's a large cement hole filled with water," Kawino said.

"Oh… what do you do with it then?"

"You can swim and just have fun." Kawino answered.

"No training necessary?" Clove asked.

"None at all."

"That might actually be fun then," She said.

"It is. I've tried it a few times." Kawino said, though usually only people from The Capitol or District 4 can swim, their parents had made sure to add it to the training just in case.

"Cool," Clove said.

"You want to go there or see some other places?" He offered.

"See some other places," Clove said.

"Alright, you want to come help me, Destiny." Kawino offered.

"Of course," She said.

"What do you think we should show her then?" He asked. "You've lived here longer than I have."

"What about the movies?" She asked.

"Movies? What's that?" Clove asked.

"Hard to explain," Kawino said.

"We could show you though, I'm sure you'd like it." Destiny said.

"Okay," Clove said.

So they lead her through the bustling streets over to the movie theater. It was a large red building with a flashing white sign on the front. Clove had no idea what to say to that looking it over. "Incredible right?" Kawino asked.

"I'm… not exactly sure…" she said hesitantly trying to figure it out.

"You'll love it," Kawino said.

"Alright, I guess I can trust you." Clove said and they took her in.

"What to see today?" Kawino asked Destiny.

Destiny looked over the titles trying to pick out a good one, "Well, what kind do you think she'd like?"

"Something Action and Romance," Kawino said.

"Hmm… how about Better Look Out?" She suggested.

"That sounds good," Kawino said. So Destiny went to the counter and got three tickets handing him the coins to pay.

They entered the theater and took seats and Clove stared at the screen even more confused. "Just wait," Kawino said.

"Alright," Clove said then was surprised when the screen came life.

The movie that followed she enjoyed. "That was really cool." Clove said when it was over.

"Knew you would like it," Destiny said.

"You were right. What else is there?"

"A lot," Kawino said.

"Well, we have other things to do," Destiny reminded.

"Oh right," Kawino remembered.

"So, Yizziki?" She asked.

"Now?" He asked more to Clove.

"Yeah, I'm really tired," She admitted.

"Alright," he said and they headed out.

Destiny led the way there. They came across a two story house and Destiny went up to the door and hesitated but knocked hoping Yizziki's father didn't answer.

However a girl with very short auburn hair answered smiling slightly. At first glance, Clove could start to tell Destiny's point; she didn't have the Capitol look about her even in the slightest. She looked like a girl from District 9 actually. "Yizziki!" Destiny said smiling.

"Destiny! Kawino!" Yizziki said smiling back then noticed Clove. "Who's this?"

"This is my twin sister Clove" Kawino said.

"Oh, well, it's nice to meet you, Clove." Yizziki said offering a hand.

"You too," Clove said smiling.

"So, I take it you lost that bloodbath?" Yizziki asked refusing to call them 'games'.

"Well, I did not lose that early," Clove said.

"She means the whole games." Destiny corrected, "That's just what she calls them."

"Oh, okay yeah I lost," Clove said.

"That is unfortunate,"

"Well, not now" Clove said.

"You'll be forced to fight for the Capitol if another rebellion breaks out in exchange for your own life which they took in the first place. How's that not unfortunate." Yizziki pointed out.

"I got my brother back," Clove said defensively.

"Who they took away in the first place." Yizziki added. "How could you possibly think any of this is okay?"

"Because we are both alive and together. You know you're really ruining my good mood," Clove sighed.

"Sorry," Yizziki sighed.

"It's no problem, just it seemed like you were trying to make me mad,"

"It's not that it's just..."

"What?" She asked.

"I'm just trying to get you to see the problem with all of this."

"It's better than my life before this," Clove said.

"Definitely," Kawino nodded in agreement.

"Okay..." Yizziki said. "What are you going to do if a rebellion does break out then?"

"I'm not sure," Clove said.

"Why not try to fight for the Districts?" Yizziki offered.

"Could we?" Kawino asked.

"If you're sneaky enough." Destiny answered.

"You want us to?" Kawino asked her.

"Yes we do," Yizziki and Destiny both said.

"Well can we come in and talk about this?" Clove asked.

"Sure," she said and let them in since her father's at work.

They walked into a dark looking room that smelled of liquor. Clove turned up her nose at this not liking that smell at all. "Sorry, I have not cleaned in a while," Yizziki said.

"Isn't there a light?" Clove asked looking around.

"No, we need to buy some new light bulbs and candles," Yizziki said.

"Oh," Clove said surprised by this. It was the Capitol after all, they're shouldn't be any problem fixing that.

"Yeah, jussssssst ssssssit anywhere," Yizziki said.

Clove sat down on the first thing she found but found it wet, on closer inspection she realized, "Is this blood?"

"Well, yes..." Yizziki said.

Clove was instantly to her feet and looked at Yizziki worriedly, "What happened?"

"Nothing," She said evasively.

"Yizziki, there wouldn't be blood," she looked around noticing a lot of dark shadows the same as where she was just sitting, "All over your house for no reason."

"Well, my dad just...is...is..." Yizziki stammered.

She didn't have to finish that, "We need to get you out of here." Clove said seriously.

"I can't go what about mom?" She asked.

"Her too." Clove added.

"But dad's dangerous," She said.

"He can't possibly be as dangerous as Kawino and I." Clove said seriously.

"You think so?" She asked.

"I know so, you have no idea how long and hard Kawino I have been trained."

"Okay, what do I do?" Yizziki asked.

"Is your mom home?" Kawino asked.

Yizziki nodded, "Sssshe'sssss upssstairsss," Yizziki said.

"Then go get her and run. Destiny, go with them to make sure they're okay, head to my house. We'll handle him." Kawino directed.

"Are you sure?" She asked.

"Positive," Both siblings said.

"Okay," Yizziki said running up the stairs.

She found her in her own room, "Mom, we need to go."

"Why?" She asked.

Yizziki explained what Clove and Kawino told her.

"Really?" She asked.

"That's what they said," Yizziki said.

"Okay, if they are sure," She said.

"They seemed really sure." Yizziki said helping her mother up.

"Who are they again?" She asked.

"Clove and Kawino Yetter, they're from District 2 and the 74th and 73rd bloodbaths respectively."

"Oh! Kawino?" She asked seeming confused, but pleased. Then something seemed to click, "Wait a minute, I styled him."

"You what?" Yizziki asked.

"For his games, I was his stylist."

"That's surprising I thought you did 3?" Yizziki asked.

"No, I started doing three this year, after how he died I refused to style for 2 anymore knowing what they do to their kids," She said.

This confused Yizziki greatly knowing absolutely nothing about Careers, "What do they do to they're children?"

"I'll tell you when we are safe," She said.

"Alright," She agreed and they headed down.

"Annia?" Kawino asked.

"Hey Kawino," Annia said awkwardly.

"You're her mother?" He asked. Annia sighed and nodded. "How come you never told me what was happening to you?" He asked hugging the women.

"I never told anyone, I was afraid of what would happen if I did."

"I'm so sorry," Kawino said.

"Thank you, are you really going to get rid of him?" Annia asked.

"Yes, I promise," Kawino said.

"Thank you so much," she said hugging him tightly.

"It'll be our pleasure," Kawino said.

"Well, I can trust you two on that so we'll just head out." Annia said letting go, "Be careful though."

"We will," Clove said as Destiny kissed Kawino before leaving.

I hope you like it, review and... please don't flame. For now, just don't.
