CHAPTER 2 – THE FIRST ENCOUNTER

MADGE'S POV

Looking into Gale's tumultuous eyes, a whole new myriad of emotions evoke inside of me. My heart beat faster and my head started spinning a little bit like the first time I had had a whole bottle of malt beer from my dad's cellar, on that distant rainy day. However that had been a different kind of dizzy, the sort that numbed my feelings, right now I felt like every particle of my body was buzzing with energy, like I had finally awoken from a deep long slumber. We left the whole mess far behind as Gale navigated his way through the inner parts of the Seam. It did not take me long to realize which way we were heading- the fence. An unspoken understanding passed through Gale and I as he came to a stop in front of the sole edifice that trapped the people of District 12 within their boundaries and was responsible for the imprisonment of a whole town. This time when I climbed over the fence I did not feel as helpless and abandoned as the last and a cold purpose of evading imprisonment drove me to the other side. However the intense feeling of freedom that pervaded my heart when I crossed over to the other side was as fresh as the last time and the sheer giddiness that I felt at that I felt on smelling the sweet pine and breathing in the fresh air, took me back to the last time I had entered these very same woods, the truth was that this was not the first time I had been over here with Gale Hawthorne.
