Hey guys! So I decided to rewrite the chapters of this story because I know that they were a bit too rushed. So I hope you guys like it!

Katniss' POV

Tomorrow the people of Panem will find out who the new President will be. I can't believe the President died. He got murdered and no one knows from whom.

I get out of the shower and get dressed and find Sammy and Ryan in the living room whispering to each other.

It took me a while to agree with Peeta to have kids. But Peeta's so persuasive, I just had to. Sammy is exactly like me; stubborn and can shoot. Ryan's more like Peeta; barely argues and stands up to what are right.

"What are you two whispering about?"

"Nothing!" They both say startled.

"Well it sure does sound like something", I say. "Come on, tell me what's up".

"Well….. we…err…well", stutters Ryan. "Umm…."

"We were discussing what we learnt at school today", interrupts Sammy.

"Ook. So what did you learn?" I say curious and worried at the same time.

"Well, first of all the teachers were talking to us about who are in the election to be President. But then, they were telling us that the one person they don't want at all to be President. 'Isabelle Snow'."

I can't believe what she just said!

Isabelle Snow!

Why?! No way is she going to be President! Snow's granddaughter!

I now understand why the teachers don't want her as President. I haven't even told my kids about the Hunger Games. I know that Sammy is 16 and Ryan is 14 but I just couldn't bear it! Peeta kept urging me for a month to tell them. But he soon let it slip by because he knew how much I got upset about the thought of it. I still get nightmares on and off and I can't stand it.

The kids must see how terrified I am because Ryan interrupts my thoughts.

"Are you ok mum? You're shaking like a leaf."

"Yeah. I'm fine. Sammy…. Continue", I say trying to act naturally.

"Umm ok then. Well Mr. Persnut interrupted and said that they can't say anymore because Ryan and Samantha Mellark are in the room. Mr. Persnut went over to us and lead us out of the room to the garden where we had to wait until further notice. The last thing Mr. Persnut said to Ryan and I were that "Your mother asked us not to tell you about The Hunger Games before she does. But I can't help but say this, 'the girl on fire will never stop burning.' Then he just walked back in the building. So Ryan and I were wondering if you can tell us about The Hunger Games and what Mr. Persnut meant?"

I'm shocked. My kids are asking me about The Hunger Games. No. I can't tell them. Well at least not alone. I need Peeta. I know that they are ready to find out about The Hunger Games. But it'll be hard telling them. I don't know if I should cry in front of my kids but I do anyway. The tears won't stop. And what does Mr. Persnut mean about 'the girl on fire will never stop burning'?

Ryan's POV

I knew we should've not said anything to mum. I told Samantha that.

But of course she doesn't listen to me. She's exactly like mum. Can't keep a secret.

Mum's freaking out. I've never seen her like this before. She doesn't stop crying. Sammy tries to calm her down but she just keeps sobbing.

I quickly tell Sammy that I'll go and get dad and she just nods her head and says be quick.

So that's what I did. In at least in 5 minutes I'm bashing through the bakery door startling the customers and my dad.

Dad's taking someone's order, but stops when I come through the door.

"It's…. Mum….she's crying….freaking out…."

"Whoa calm down. Take deep breaths." Dad tells me and I do.

"What happened?" He asks me.

I told dad everything about what had just happened and Dad gets a strange look in his eyes. Worried, anger? Who knows?

Dad doesn't answer; he just grabs my hand and we rush back home.

I've never seen my dad run so fast before.

"Ryan what I want you to do is to take Samantha and you both go and mind the shop while I go calm your mother down. Is that clear?" Dad tells me.

I nod but then say, "What's going on, dad?"

"You'll find out soon enough."

Dad and I stop outside the house door for a second, before Dad goes barging through the door, and me following him behind.

Mum's on the couch sobbing still and Sammy's trying to calm her down the best she can. But it's not working.

Dad lets go of my wrist and rushes over to her, as I do what dad says and get Sammy to take her to the bakery.

"Sammy, we have to go", I say to her.

"Why? What's happening?" Sammy asks worryingly.

"I'm not sure, but dad wanted you and me to take care of the bakery now, while he tries and clams down mum. Come on."

Sammy follows me out the door.

We walk in silence halfway to the bakery until I say, "So, what do you reckon the Hunger Games is?"

"I don't know", Sammy says shaking her head. "But I know it can't be anything good."

I nod in agreement as we continue to walk to the bakery.

Peeta's POV

I pull Katniss into a hug and muffle in her hair, "Do you think it's time to tell them?"

For months I've been trying to get Katniss to agree to tell the kids about the Hunger Games, but she wouldn't agree. I would make her upset and I didn't like her being upset, so I decided to just let it be until Katniss would come to me. But I can't help but ask her now.

Katniss looks up at me with tears all over her face. She stares up at me for a while but then surprisingly; nods her head.

I smile slightly and say, "Never thought you would agree."

Katniss smacks me slightly but that just makes my smile widen. "Can you promise me something though?"

"Yeah, what is it?" I ask.

"You do the talking", Katniss says.

"Deal", I say. We sit on the couch for a while, just hugging and Katniss doesn't move an inch in the time. It's about been 10 minutes before I hear Katniss snore.

I can't believe she can just fall asleep that easily. But then again, she's been getting nightmares the past couple of nights so she probably hasn't been able to sleep; I can't blame her.

I carry Katniss in my arms, up the stairs and into our bedroom. I lay her gently on the bed and close the door behind me.

I head downstairs and grab the phone. I dial the bakery's phone number and it rings.

"Hello", Sammy says through the phone.

"Hi honey, it's me", I say.

"Oh, hi dad. Is mum okay?"

"She's fine", I say. "She's just fallen asleep, that's all."

"Dad, what's going on?" Samantha asks just like how Ryan did.

"Everything will be explained soon", I say. "Okay?"

"Okay."

"You guys can lock up and come home if you want?" I say.

"Yep, okay. We'll just help the rest of the customers then we'll come", Sammy says.

"Okay, bye honey", I say.

"Bye dad", she says and hangs up.

Ryan and Samantha arrive shortly after and we sit on the couch.

"Are you going to tell us now?" Sammy asks me.

"Wait here", I say. I go up and grab a few things from the bedroom as quietly as I can so I don't wake Katniss up.

But of course, I wake her up.

"Sorry", I say. Katniss sits up and rubs her eyes.

"Please tell me I dreamed the whole thing about Isabelle Snow", Katniss says.

I shake my head and sigh. "I was just about to tell them."

Katniss looks at me and says, "I'll come too."

I raise my eyebrows and say, "Are you sure?"

"Of course I'm sure, why wouldn't I be?" Katniss says.

I frown but let it be. Katniss gets up and takes my hand. We head downstairs and go and sit on the other couch.

I start to explain to the kids how the Hunger Games was created after the war where one girl and one boy from each district of Panem will be thrown into an arena to fight to the death until there's only one last person standing.

I tell them about the reapings and how Katniss and I went into the arena together. I told them about the fake love act for Katniss but not me and how she ends up falling in love with me in the end. We explain that Isabelle is Snow's granddaughter and that's why Katniss was freaking out. Katniss speaks up and tells them about the quarter quell and her POV. Katniss told the kids how she was the Mockingjay and how Prim died and that Buttercup is actually Prim's cat and that she killed Coin and Snow ended up dieing anyway. We tell them everything.

I show them Katniss' necklace and the pearl. Katniss shows the mockingjay pin that Madge gave her and how Madge did not survive the bombing.

After we've finished explaining, Samantha glares at us with hurt and hatred.

"So you just decide to tell us now?" Sammy says angrily.

"Samantha we-

"What? Did you want to wait until I'm 21 to tell me? I'm 16 and 2 years older than Ryan, you should have told me by now!" Sammy yells.

Sammy's POV

"What? Did you want to wait until I'm 21 to tell me? I'm 16 and 2 years older than Ryan, you should have told me by now!" I yell.

Everyone just sits there shocked.

"Ryan?" I ask for support; but Ryan just looks down and doesn't answer.

"Grr!" I stand up and head straight out the door and slam it behind me.

It only takes me a minute to get to Haymitch's house. I barge through the door, giving Haymitch a heart attack.

He's sitting on one of his stools at the bench with a bottle in his hand. I go over and sit next to him on another stool.

"Well, nice to see you too, sweetheart", he says sarcastically.

"Give me a drink", I say not biting at his comment.

Haymitch finishes off a gulp of his wine bottle and then asks, "What?"

"You heard me", I say impatiently as I hold out my hand.

"Did-

"Yes, now will you give me the bottle?" I say.

I take a mouthful of the wine and it burns down my throat, but I like it.

I hope you guys liked it! Let me know what you think and I've already finished off my next chapter.
