Holy Crap. Long time since I posted a new chapter. And I'm out of my writing fix =(. This Chapter won't be that good, but judge me away ^.^! Oh yeah, and I'm getting to Katniss and Peeta, but the best is for last.
Chapter 4: Big Bad Day
I emerged into the outer world, from my safe haven in the wine cellar.
The Capitol looked grim, building razed by bombers, the smell of burns and death all around. For miles, sights of smoke and the screams and moans of people could be heard. It was astounding what the once bustling city had turned into.
I left the safety of my new home in search of food, but the only thing I had found for weeks were bugs and rats, and that wasn't enough to satisfy the hunger of some one from the Capitol.
If my mother had seen me eat the kinds of food I had been eating, She would've smacked me hard.
EFFIE PAULA TRINKET! Stay away from the Avox food this instant. You know that glop is only for those ignorant servants we have!
I looked around in the desolate wasteland. All I could see for miles was rubble, buildings, and what looked to be the parts of bodies of different kinds of animals and humans.
It hadn't always been like this. It started two years ago when the Mockingjays figured out how to disable the shield around the Capitol. Even with the no entree, no leaving rule, the Mockingjays had found a way into the Capitol.
Because I was Katniss and Peeta's escort, I was imprisoned from the beginning. I was beaten every day, and I cracked under the pressure. All of my information was false, because no one ever told me anything. They thought I was stupid, all of my supposed friends from district 12. They thought I was like all of the other people in the Capitol, stupid and gullible. The thought tore me apart, and I became bitter.
It was easy escaping the prison that I was kept in. When the bombs dropped, everyone made a break for it. I went through the sewer system (because I had lost all sense of prim and proper from prison) because the others were sure to be gunned down. I was correct. Only a few had escaped, and I was one of them.
The outside wasn't very welcoming. Everything looked destroyed, decayed and the economy had crashed. Though the dirty air was a nice reminder that I was still alive, I was still Effie Trinket.
And that's how I ended up alive after 6 years of war. It wasn't that hard actually. There was still an abundance of food, and I had stolen about a half a year's worth into my cellar. Eventually, it ran out, and I lived on animals that had survived the bombing.
That was out too. Now I was out of seclusion, ready to fight for survival.
That didn't last long however, because the second I stepped out, a savage ambushed me and I was stabbed in the chest.
While I was bleeding out, all of my thoughts of being clean came back. I used my hands to try and scrub away the blood and eventually got it in my eyes. As I faded away, I strange feeling of heat came upon me, and a orange glue illuminated the sky.
I drifted away into death knowing that I was a survivor, even if it was all ending.
Terrible Chapter =( I promise they will get better (and longer). Anyways, R&R! I hope u enjoyed another morbid ending =)
