Katniss POV
CHAPTER TWO
I rack my brains and review all my plans. Before I jump into my second round of the arena, I should rig it so no one will have to play. I've lost Rue, in my first round of games and I'm not about to lose another set of people. I have a weird guy on my trail, don't know who the heck he is, and I'm walking with him to go the arena! I tightly hug the wall avoiding the maids that walk by. I inch up the stairs slowly as I grab my crow bar tightly once again. Snow is out of his room. This the only chance I have, I duck in and swoop the key's from it's spot on the hook on Snow's robe. Snow walk's in the minute I'm leaving. Shoot here's where I die! Snow smiles and turns and faces me. He pulls out a rose and tucks it in my shirt. "Come." he says. Next thing I know Snow's on the floor passed out. Ok that was weird, I pull myself together and place the rose on Snow's chest. "There, nice and comfy..." I say. I sneak out the back door so that guard won't follow me. I run as fast as I can towards the arena. Luckly, the was no guards. I place the key in the lock to the arena. I turn it slowly to make no creaking noise. I push the huge 50ft tall gates open. The arena is fresh in my mind, I want to blow it up so badly I'm not even joking. I set to work.
