A/N: This is the third book in The Rebellion series. I'd advise reading the others before this. This takes place 3 years after Katniss left. Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: I don't own the Hunger Games and I never will.

Chapter 1:

Katniss POV:

I have to do this I thought and pushed threw the door. The bakery hasn't changed much since I left.

"How can I help you mam?" A man asked. He was tall with brown hair. He was standing behind the counter next to a girl who looked to be about four. The girl had raven hair and her icy-blue eyes were fixated on the picture she was drawing.

"I was wondering if I could see Mr. Mellark" I said walking up to the counter.

"Sure and may I ask who you are?" He asked.

"An old friend" I said. He walked into the back room and I looked at the little girl's picture. "What's your name, sweetie?" I asked.

"Aliah" she said looking up at me. Cato and Clove's daughter, how did I not know that?

"That's a pretty name" I said and she went back to drawing. "What's your picture of?"

"My family" she said. There were a bunch of 'people' all near each other and one off in the corner.

"Who's that?" I asked pointing to the person.

"That's Katniss. Marvel said she live far away and then Mommy hit him in the head" she said pronouncing the L's as W's. She knew about me? Did my daughter know about me? I still didn't know what her name is since I haven't spoken to anyone since I left.

The door to the kitchen opened and Peeta walked out. I put my head down, so he wouldn't see me. Why did I come? "Pweta!" Aliah yelled.

"Hey Ali" he said. When he saw me the smile dropped of his face.

"Do you like me picture?" Aliah asked handing it to him.

"It's wonderful! How about you go put it on the fridge and get a cookie?" Peeta said. Bribery, nice. Aliah nodded and ran into the kitchen.

"What do you want?" Peeta asked.

"I'm sorry" I said.

"That's all you have to say? Why did you leave?" He asked.

"I never wanted a kid. I couldn't handle it. I couldn't do anything right" the words spilled out of my mouth without me thinking about it.

"That's it?" Peeta asked. I nodded. "Then why did you come back?"

"I missed you and our daughter"I said my voice creaking at the end.

"Really? Then why didn't you come sooner?" He asked.

"I… don't know" I said. Peeta rolled his eyes.

"So you just expected to come back here and we'd welcome you like nothing's happened? You'd raise your daughter even though you missed the first three years of her life? Forget how we all felt when we realized you left without even leaving a note?"

"I'm sorry" I cried the tears streaming down my cheeks.

"I'm sorry is not gonna cut it"

"Can I at least know her name?"

Peeta sighed. "It's Katniss, but we call her Kate." Peeta stomped back into the kitchen leaving me sobbing on the floor.

Clove's POV:

"Katniss is back?" I asked Peeta. He nodded. Katniss broke him when she left. "I'm gonna kill her" I said and lunged for the door.

Two strong arms grabbed me. "No, your not" Cato said.

"What are we going to do?" Peeta asked.

"Let her get to know Kate" Marvel said.

"What if she leaves again. Then Kate's going to be heart broken and then what genius?" I asked still in my husbands embrace.

"Get to know her as a friend then if Katniss leaves it won't affect her to much. If Katniss can be trusted then we tell Kate" Marvel said.

"That's actually a good idea" I said surprised.

"Who knew there was a brain in there" Cato said.

"Hey! I come up with some good ideas!" Marvel defended.

"Like what?" Ruben asked.

"… I got nothing" Marvel said.

"So I'm not allowed to kill Katniss?" I asked.

"No, and I thought she was your best friend?" Finch said.

"Key word there, WAS." I said. "What if Glimmer comes back to life can I kill her?" I asked. Everybody did a face palm and Cato chuckled. That's a yes.

"So who wants to tell Katniss?" Finch asked. My hand shot up. "Anyone else?" Damn these people.

"We'll do it" Prim and Rue said together. When they turned 14 they started looking alike. They were like twins, except Rue's skin was darker. There sisters from different misters. (Sentence of the day! (Yes, I have sentences of the day. Deal with it!))

"So your going to sent them, but not me" I asked.

"You can't be trusted, Clover" Cato said still holding me. I scowled and he just chuckled.

Finch's POV:

I laid in bed next to Marvel thinking about Katniss. Why did she come back? Marvel wrapped his arm around my waist and pulled me closer to him. "You have to get some sleep" he murmured not opening his eyes.

I sighed. "I can't sleep. I'm thinking" I said.

"Well stop thinking" he said. Maybe Clove's right, he doesn't have a brain.

"It's not that easy" I said. Then Rayden started crying. "I'll get him" I said and got out of bed.

"Stop thinking while your in there" Marvel called after me.

I stepped into my son's room and took him out of the crib. "Hey buddy. Have a nightmare?" I asked and he nodded. He was pretty smart for a one year old. Everyone- mostly Clove- says he got my brains and Marvel's looks. He looked just like Marvel, but with flaming red hair.

I kissed his forehead and placed him back in the crib. "Your ok baby" I said. "The only monster that's gonna get you is daddy" I said.

"Heard that" Marvel called from our rooms and Ray giggled.

I kissed Ray's forehead again and walked back into my room. "Stop thinking yet?" Marvel asked.

"Yes" I said and fell into a dreamless sleep.

Katniss POV:

I can't believe I can meet my daughter. I mean she doesn't know me as her mother, but still! But Peeta won't even talk to me and Clove wants to kill me. Same old Clove.

I now lived in the house in the vary back of the victors village. It belonged to district 12's first victor.

I looked at the clock: 11:49. I guess I have to go to bed. I though. Ever since I left I've had terrible nightmares. They were mostly of Peeta and Prim getting tortured or it's me going back in the arena. Sometimes it's being hated by my daughter. Those are the ones I dread the most.

I crawled into bed and closed my eyes. Eventually sleep found me and it was plagued by nightmares.

A/N: So… who'd you like it? Good? Bad? I won't post a new chapter tomorrow cuz it's Halloween, but maybe Thursday. I really hoped you like it. You'll eventually be introduced to all the kids. There's like 7 now. I hoped you liked it!
