A/N- I had this idea for a couple of days, and I just wanted to see how it worked out!PLEASE REVIEW! It means so much to me when readers PM me or just comment! Sorry its kind of short but a lot happens!
My awkward length hair hung in front of my face as I slouched into school. My hair was a beautiful blonde, like my father, except my eyes throw people off. My mother's grey eyes looked unnatural on my face. Just because my parents were the leaders of the rebellion, doesn't mean I get treated well.
I'm Alina Mellark. I have pretty much no friends and no social life. My parents are worried for me but I don't care. I know that life will simply pass on. Some people fail to see through my perspective. My mother was once like me and independent. Now she has become soft, once she fell in love. I feel that she has grown weak, from what I heard she used to be. Just because she once was the mockingjay doesn't mean she stayed as the mockingjay. I realize now that she is vulnerable, I never want to be.
My Dad is different. He is the baker. He is my mother's support. He keeps my mother safe. He knows that she fell for him. Even though he loved her since they both were children. Dad knows that he supports her. All of Panem knows it. The way she looks at him is a dead give away.
I only wish that I could do something as brave as my parents. I looked up to them. They didn't expect me to reach any goals. I know them too well. I wanted to show my parents. my school, I wanted to show Panem wrong. I had ideas, but they were crazy. I could never carry them out. Why was life so difficult? Does every fifteen year old girl have to go through all of this? I feel like I'm just a face. Not a human but a face. Just a picture for the Capitol magazines to plaster on a cover when I do something embarrassing or stupid. The country acts as if I have no feelings. Does it matter what I think?
That day in school went like all the rest. I only spoke when I was being spoken to, ate lunch in the bathroom stall, and went home ready to repeat everything again. When I got home I realized I shouldn't have to repeat the process everyday. Why should I? Girls my age never have problems like this. I know exactly what I will do. I will prove everyone wrong. No one will ever doubt me again. If they do they will deeply regret it. This game I'm about to start won't be in her favor. No one will have the odds in their favor. Its from now on my rules. I made my mind, the stage is set. I'm definitely not going to back down now. Its about to get good.
Maybe once I do what I have to do the world will show me respect. Alina Mellark, daughter of the victors, killer of the president of Panem.
A/N- I know its a cliff hanger! I hope I left you excited for the next chapter not bored to tears! Please PM me or review! It means a lot when I get feedback!
