This has to be a dream! I think. But I know it is them. And they were coming toward us.


"Is this the boy?" The beautiful black-haired woman says, which I suppose was Johanna Mason, her hair on her left shoulder. Three other women accompany her. One is a dark-skinned one, Enobaria from Two. One whose skin was olive color, Katniss from Twelve. The last one, of immense beauty, white-skinned, Annie Cresta. Katniss, whom is there, accompanied by her husband, blonde, white-skinned, Peeta Mellark. So, I think, he was the only visible blonde head, because I don't think it is the other man's. Peeta starts walking around, and I can only notice his funny way of walking.
"Yes, this is the boy." President Paylor says firmly.
They start walking towards me.
"Hi," I say, "I'm Shane Riddle."
Johanna stares at President Paylor, then at me as if I were simply something disturbing her sight.

"I'm sorry about your girlfriend." She says calmly as if she doesn't really care, which I suppose is true.
"She's not my girlfriend." I say, anger welling inside me, teeth and hands clenched.
"Are you sure?" Enobaria says suddenly.
"Yeah," I say "I'm sure."
I am so angry that I simply start walking towards the twenty-fourth door. It has a magnificent shimmering silver handle and is made of black oak with a lion printed on its outside. I turn around.
"You know what?" I say "I'll better work it myself."
I turn around again when a hand holds tightly my shoulder, not letting me walk away.
"Come on Shane, you know you will somehow need our help, you know, I didn't want this to happen, so now I'll help you, even if the other ones don't." Says Annie.
I turn around, and looked at her coldly. Wow, she is so beautiful, I think.
"What do I have to do?" I ask.
"You have to accept our alliance with you." Katniss says.
"Ok, then, I accept, I accept. Happy?" I say angrily.
"So, the 'boy' has accepted, such an act of bravery." Says Johanna Mason ,smirking.
"One more thing before I leave, you have to comment about this to the 'traitor', say to him that he won't kill us and make him promise." I say.
I then start walking towards the open door, where a Peacekeeper is waiting for me, when someone said:
"Traitor?" The unmistakable voice of Haymitch says.
"Yeah, Plutarch Heavensbee, he bretrayed the Capitol, so he surely won't mind killing us." I say coldly and heartlessly.
I start walking towards the door and enter, closing the door behind my back as soon as I'm in.
