Katniss P.O.V
"What way do you think we should go," Glimmer asks the next day as we stand looking around us. "We should head north," I say, having no idea either. Shrugging we all turn to Cato. Sighing he goes to the front and we all follow. This morning we'd all decided that he should be the leader and no one apart from Peeta had objected.
"I could go a bath," Glimmer says from beside me. "Me two," I agree clicking my back. "And a proper bed." Nodding she looks ahead to Marvel before looking down her face slightly red. No one would notice unless you knew her well. "Do you have a crush on Marvel," I whisper my eyes probably bugging out of my head. Nodding she looks down. "Yay," I mini sequel letting my girly side out. Glimmer stops and looks at me in shock. "I've had to grow up quick and I'm enjoying not having anyone's life in my hands," I say as explanation for my more kiddy side. Nodding she looks at me with sad eyes before I remember our convocation. "So you and Marvel, ay," I ask quiet enough for no one to hear. She nods. "He'd never like me though." "You should go and talk to him, you'd be surprised about what he thinks about you," I say before leaving her to talk to Marvel.
"What do you think happened in the arena," I ask Cato when I reach him. "I'm not completely sure but I think that the rebellion's started," he says looking out of the corner of his eyes at me, waiting to see my reaction. "Rebellion?" I ask truly having no idea what he's talking about. "The hunger game's has been ripping apart families for years. It was only time before someone rebelled and I think the whole star crossed lovers thing was it." Nodding I think about how many people had to die before someone finally got the courage.
"I want to join, but I'm done fighting," Cato says suddenly after a moment of silence. "Me two," I say. "What districts do you think will help?" "Well three and up will. I'm not so sure about one and two though. They've been under the capitols thumb for so long that I'm not sure if they even know how to function without orders," Cato says and suddenly I feel sorry for them. "They'll probably expect me to help kill innocent people." "You're not a killer Cato," I say looking up at him as we walk side by side. "I am. I killed children in the arena. One of them was even the same age as Rue." "You had to Cato. It was the only way to get home. But now you have a choice and if you don't want to fight you don't have to," I say grabbing his arm and pulling him to a stop. "You're your own person Cato," I finish before wrapping my arms around his waist. I feel him stiffen for a second before he suddenly relaxes. "Thank you Katniss," he sighs into my hair as his strong arms wrap around me.
"Come on love birds," I hear Marvel call out after I've stood in Cato's arms for a few minutes. Pulling back I place a quick kiss on his check before turning to see Marvel and grinning Glimmer holding hands. Smiling widely I pull them both into a hug. "Told ya so," I say to Glimmer pulling back. "Yeah, yeah, it was a once in a life time thing," Glimmer fake grumbles. Laughing I turn to see Cato standing stock still. "Quiet," he whispers motioning us to him. "People," Glimmer whispers happily. "Be careful," Thresh warns letting Rue down from his back quietly. Nodding we continue forward. "One of us should go check," I Clove suggests. "I'll go," I offer quietly. "No I'll," that's as far as he gets before I cut in. "Cato you're the leader nothing can happen to you ok," I say before waving goodbye and stepping out into the open.
"Katniss," I hear a voice yell as I walk around looking for anyone. Turning, bow in hand I come face to face with Madge. "You're alright," she sobs diving into my arms. "Of course I am," I say before pulling back. "Where are we?" I ask looking around only to find heaps of people standing on the street looking at me in shock. "You're in district 13," Madge says. District 13. It echoes around my head before I freeze.
"Is my mum and Prim alright. And what about Clove, Cato, Marvel, Glimmer, Thresh and Rue's families," I ask in one breathe." Everyone's fine." She says seeming shocked I care about the Carriers. "You talk like you know our kids," a man who looks familiar says as he and a few other people step forward. "You must be a relation to Clove," I say finally realising why he looks familiar. He only nods. "I'm friends with them all." That seems to shock everyone again. "They're here if you want to see them," I say before stopping. "Only if it's safe that is." "Of course it is," I hear a new voice say. Turning I see a friendly looking man in his 60's. "I'm John Riley," he says. "I'm the leader of the rebellion."
I stand and look at him in shock for a bit before I finally come into my self. I look around at everyone before deciding it must be safe if everyone is here, well. "Anyone who wants to see them come with me," I say before turning and starting off toward the others, almost everyone that had been there behind me.
