A/n not mine. Also this is before the reaping. Not sticking to the story, duh.

"Do you think we could do it?" Gale asks me. Do what?

"Run away?" And just like that the idea is planted. I go over and out a hand in his cheek.

"Yes..." I breathe. His eyes light up. "Let's do it. Right now, just...leave." I say. A smile lights up his beautiful, familiar face.

"Let's do it. Go home, grab food and meet me here." He says. We take of towards the fence, climbing over it with ease. He runs to his house and I,to mine. I'll take prim with me, not my mother. I opens the door and go to the cupboards. I take some grainy bread, water, crackers, and fruit, and the remaining meat. Salt and spices we hoarded and got for hand ground vegetables.

"Katniss? What are you doing?" Primes sweet voice asks. I turn to her and knee down, looking at her in the eye.

"Me, you and Gale are running away." She gasps.

"What about mother? And the reaping?" She asks. She's so selfless and wonderful. My sister.

"I'm not going to force you, you can stay, I won't." Tears fill her eyes but she nods.

"I'm coming." I hug her with as much force I can without hurting her.

"Go pack some clothes and milk. Whatever else you want." She runs off. I go pack clothes too, a bow and brush. Other necessities. I'm ready and so is Prim. We run out the door to the fence. We slide under. Prims hand grabs mine is worry. I smile. We walk to the rock me and Gale always meet. He's already there, looking handsome and perfect.

"Let's go." He says. The sun is at it's peak and we trek through the forest. Prim stumbles a bit over roots but other than that she's fine. As soon as we can't see the district, my muscles relax. I can't believe it. We are free. Free form starvation, soot, sadness. We have hope and freedom. I can see Gale and Prim realize that too because we all smile. Now, I'm the old, new Katniss. The Katniss that died as soon as my father did. She's back. Capitol, watch out. I'm a rebel.

Super short, I know. Just want to see if people like vote and comment.
