cracks in Effie Trinket

by OfSpirallingInsanity

this is a tale of what happened to Effie Trinket while fire was catching. a tale of what came to be of the old Effie. a tale of friendship, loss, betrayal and a whole lot of new found Effie Trinket sass. rated t just to be safe, warning i'm new at fanfics and summaries.

1. Brand New Effie

disclaimer: I do not own the hunger games or any of the hunger games characters.

I jolt upright, waking from my nightmares only to be greeted with the tortured screams of the capitol stylists and mentors that were rebels. That's all I hear now, screaming, whether it belongs to some else or me. I shiver, I'm so cold, most of my warm fur clothing was taken from me and burned or god knows what other horrible things. what a wreck I've become, the old Effie Trinket was stylish, on time and stuck to the schedule. now I am a shadow of my former self with no schedule to follow. My hair has fallen from it's perfectly styled glory and now sits in fading orange ringlets on my shoulders. My hands and nails are covered in dry blood, dirt and grime. I couldn't tell you what time it was and normally that would bother me but now, knowing what time it is means knowing how long you've been here which causes you to think about the things that have happened since the beginning, frankly i'm sick of thinking and waiting around in this dump. no mahogany, no beautifully plush furniture. what kills me the most is thinking about Katniss and Peeta, the star crossed lovers of district twelve and the only two people I love. I know that Peeta's in the capitol but I have heard nothing of the girl on fire. I only know that they have been torn apart by the capitol and the rebels, I am starting to wonder if I really ever knew the capitol people that well and only now am I realizing how horrible it all was sending young children to the games for sport. all it ever did was create more anger in the districts and it never proved any better for the capitol either. I am horrified to think that I was such a big part in it all, ushering Katniss and Peeta around. I practically handed death to them on a silver and ruby encrusted plate and said "you earned it" I cant believe I said that, "you earned it" I am a horrible person.

sorry if this was a bad first chapter but i'm kind of new at this and yeah, so if you guys could IM me and give me your feedback or comment that would be amazing!
