I need her. What have they done with her? Melanie… My name is Haymitch
Abernathy and I am the victor of the 50th Hunger Games. I haven't seen Melanie, my
girlfriend, since I came back from the victory tour. I asked her parents and they said
that they thought she was at my house. I think the Peacekeepers have done
something with her. All because of the stunt I pulled with the force field. I would
take it all back now, let Satin, the girl from 1 win, if Melanie were only alive. I need to
know…
Two Hours Later…
They've done it. They've killed her. I know because they left the body on my
doorstep. How could they do this? President Snow must be laughing is despicable
head off, the foul, evil, man. I take a deep breath, and walk outside. I go to the Hob
and walk to a stand where a young woman named Ripper is there, selling bottles of
white liquor. I walk up to her and ask for a bottle. She gives it to me, taking the
money. I walk home, knocking on the door. Nothing. I knock again, this time harder.
I realize they're not going to answer so I let myself in. I gasp as I enter. They're lying
on the floor with blood spilling out their throats. My family. My mother and father…
and little Rose. How could they? They've taken all the love and hope in my life! I pop
open the bottle and take a my first sip.
