A/N: I didn't get as many review this time! But I'm in a good mood so I'll give you this chapter anyway.

Chapter 3: Escaping

Prim Pov

President Coin! We're saved! I can go back to Katniss and Mom and everyone! I'm saved! Finnick can go back to Annie! We're all going home! We-

"You are supposed to be dead," President Coin said calmly to me.

WHAT.

I stared at her speechless. Dead? Why was I supposed to be dead? What? How? I just kept staring at her, my hanging open like an idiot.

"What are you talking about?"Finnick finally asked, looking about as shocked as I was.

"When we let the bombs go, we later found out that you were among the children. You should be dead. Can you tell me why you are not dead?" Coin asked.

I let out a real intelligent response along the lines of "Uhhhhh…."

This was a lot to take in. She sent in the bombs? That doesn't make any sense. The Capitol sent in those bombs. Didn't they? Did Coin really send in those bombs? Did Coin kill all the children? Did Coin kill Katniss? Is Katniss dead? Is she dead because of her? No. No. NO. This. Is. Not. Happening.

"No matter. I will finish the job. You too, Mr. Odair. The government just cannot spend the time and energy to bring you back to health. Don't worry the death will be a painless injection of the needle. And we don't have to tell anyone. Since everyone thinks you're dead," Coin carries on as if she's discussing the weather.

Oh. My. God.

"I will be back after this afternoon's… activities. Make yourselves comfortable," Coin says and walks, locking the door behind her.

I let out a small shriek. This is all going to end soon. Goodbye world. Goodbye everyone I ever loved.

"We're not going to die," I hear Finnick say. His face sent in grim determination. But I was looking at him like he was crazy. I mean, how he did expect to get out of here. The door is locked.

"Um, Finnick…, that's a great idea and all but we're kind of trapped. And we're like really injured. So it would be hard to move. So, um…" I really didn't want to say that we didn't have a chance. But it is true. We're hopeless. He has to face the facts. There's no way we're getting out of this alive.

" No, Prim. We will survive. We have to. There are some secret passages in some of the holding cells if I remember correctly. And a few of them are stocked with supplies. If we're lucky and if Coin is dumb enough, we have a chance," Finnick explained. And I began to feel hope again.

That is until I tried to get out of my bed.

"Ow. Ouch. Ow. OOOOUCH!" I screamed. Everything was hurting. This was too much. But I had to get out of this place. So I drew in a deep breath and sat myself up, wincing in pain. But looking a look at my legs, I knew my right one wasn't going to be functioning again anytime soon. So I put my left one down, let out a small shriek in pain, and started dragging my right one behind me.

Finnick looked pretty beat up too. One of his hands only had three fingers and there was an open gash in his right leg that whoever treated us did not do a good job patching it up. Plus there were the longs bloody scrapes along his body.

We went to work right way. Pressing and knocking against the walls and feeling along the edges for openings. But we ended up with nothing. I was ready to give up after a couple of hours but Finnick insisted that we keep it up. But I was pretty sure that we wouldn't find anything.

After what seemed like forever I was trying to tell Finnick that this room didn't hold anything and that we were out of luck. I was leaning against the wall saying "Finnick, I think that the reason we aren't finding anything is that there's nothing to find. I know you want to believe that there is but- Ahhh!" I screeched as the wall disappeared beneath me. I landed on my butt and cried out in pain. It hurt!

"Prim you found it! Good job! Oh, wait here, let me help you up." Finnick said as he reached out to pick me up. And we took a look inside.

They had everything! Salve, medicine, bandages, water containers, some food, even burn cream!

"Whoa," Finnick says softly, eyeing the various bags on dried fruit and crackers.

"Does President Coin really not know about this? Because this stash was like made for us. Wouldn't they at least clean it out of supplies? Does no one know about this place?" I ask Finnick.

"Either that… or someone wants us to get out," Finnick answers. What? I give him an questioning look but I don't say anything. We have some work to do.

After I apply the burn cream and bandages to my own skin, I helped Finnick with his wounds. After that we ate some of the food, and then packed what we could into some mini backpacks, including medicine and bandages.

"Okay, how do we get out now? The doors still locked," I ask. Sure, we are better, but that didn't help unless we get out.

"I'll be right back, Rob; I just need to check on the patients. Coin gonna have them injected in a while. I just need to keep them alive 'till then," Someone outside the doors said.

"Quick, hide behind the bed, we'll ambush him then escape," Finnick whispered in my ear. I nodded then did what he said. We saw the doctor come in and Finnick knocked him out in one punch. Wow, he had some anger behind that one. We started running as fast as we could in our state. We met a couple other people on the way, but Finnick silenced them just like with the doctor, when we got out we saw the hugest crowd gathered than ever before.

With Katniss and President Snow in the middle of the place.

A/N: I pretty sure you guys know what the crowd is here for. If not, you'll find out next chapter. I need reviews people!
