Katniss' POV

Chapter 1:

When I wake up all I can register is how bright the lights are. I have to squint to see anything. When I do squint I see medical equipment. Where in the world am I? I am not at home with Prim and mother or in the woods with Gale or in the Games with Peeta...

THE GAMES! Peeta, Finnick, Johanna, and Beetee! Where could they be! Is Peeta hurt? Is Finnick o.k.? Those questions buzzed around my head as I heard someone say, "Well look over there, she's up!"

I turn my head to see none other than Haymitch Abernathy. How lucky can one girl be?

"Where is…" I sputtered.

Haymitch sighed. "I knew you would ask. Finnick is fine. Beetee is fine too."

"What about Peeta?" I asked barely getting the words out.

Haymitch meets my eyes but says nothing. I gasp. No, no, no! If they don't have Peeta then...Snow has him.

"Get. Out. Now," I command.

Haymitch gets up and leaves. Once the door closes I cry.

How could this happen? I just…just...don't understand. I close my eyes to let this all soak in. Then I heard people walking in.

"Is she...?" I heard Haymitch ask.

I open my eyes to look at Haymitch and a guy right behind him so I really can't make out his face. All I can see is that this man has black hair, like me.

"Oh, well I will come by later. See you at dinner," Haymitch said and left with the man right behind him.

Now, who could that man be? That question kept enetering and begging me to answer.

The only problem was, I didn't know who he was. I sighed and buried my face into my pillow. Why didn't the man just show himself? What was so bad about that?

My mind wanders back to Peeta. If he isn't here with me, then Snow has him. Yes, Snow does which makes tears roll down my cheeks. Snow is probably torturing him this very moment. Peeta has done nothing wrong.

I am interrupted from my thoughts by, "Hey Katniss, you coming to dinner?"

I look up into the eyes of Finnick Odair, my fellow ally and friend.

"Sure, I guess," I mumbled.

Finnick helped me up and led me down to the dining hall. As we walked he explained we were in thirteen and that the rebels had rescued us. He says that Johanna and Peeta are in the capitol, captured. We finally walk into the dining room. I see so many people in there. Finnick and I go sit by my family.

"Katniss!" Prim exclaims and gets up to hug me.

"Katniss..." my mother said and got up to hug me.

"Hi," was all I got out.

Finnick took a seat by me, my mother and Prim sat across from us. Where in the world was Haymitch? He said he would see me at dinner.

"Katniss, you feeling better?" Prim asked.

I shrugged my shoulders in response. Finnick was all ready done with his dinner. He said, "I must go meet Beetee. Bye ladies."

"Bye!" Prim exclaimed as he ran out of the dining room.

"Anything exciting happen while I was out?" I asked Prim.

She smiled. "Nothing that exciting but they will let me help Mama in the hospital soon!" she told me.

That made me smile. Prim had the healing blood in her that was for sure. Then Haymitch showed up. The man was with him.

"Katniss, Prim this is your dad," Haymitch said, motioning to the man.

I gasped. All of a sudden all I saw was black.
