I barely get my cereal before I'm called over.

"Where have you been!?" Haymitch demands.

"I ran away." I say. There's no reason to fight the truth.

"You what!?" Effie shrieks. She falls to the floor. Did she just faint? I didn't think it would have that affect.

"HOW?" Haymitch yells.

"I took Gale, Rue from 11 and Foxface from 5. A guy named Harrison blew the forcefield on the roof. He took us to a train station. We boarded a cargo train going to 12. They found us out. Snow picked us up in a limo. I was dropped off here not to long ago." I explain.

"Why would you do that when you knew it could get you in trouble!?" Haymitch asks mad.

"I'm going into the arena on Saturday with three people who are like family! What more trouble can I get into. I'm going to die! If there's a chance that I can escape, even it meant never seeing Katniss again, I would take it! At least I'd be alive!" I yell at him.

I slide my cereal bowl across the table. I walk to the stairs door. I slam it behind me.

Filled with adrenaline I run up the 12 flights of stairs. I trip at the second to last level. I lay on the platform in the middle. I lay looking up at the ceiling, I close my eyes.

There's a flash. A flash like a memory. I see Katniss standing over a girl. Over Rue! She's singing the song she usually sings to me. She's crying. It's dark again.

What was that? Katniss has never meet Rue! They were lying in a forest. But it wasn't 12's forest. It was somewhere else. Almost like an alternative universe. Whatever, I must have been daydreaming.

I lay on the platform,eyes open. I hear someone walking down the stairs. It's Gale.

"Prim? What are you doing?" He asks as he walks up.

I don't reply. I myself don't know what I'm doing. I'm being weird.

"It's time to do our private training sessions." He says picking me up.

"It's already Thursday?" I ask.

"Yes. Tomorrow we have interviews and the day after that we go into the arena." Gale says.

I let out a big sob. It hurts. I've cried so much. But I can't help it.

People come and go. I'm called into The Training Hall.

I go for the bow and arrows. I shoot a few getting one in the middle. Mostly they get around the middle.

I go to knife throwing. I pick up a few. The first hits the middle. Second hits the ring around the middle. Last hits the outside ring.

I go to camouflage and do the dirt and grass one. They say thanks and send me out.

I walk out to Haymitch, Effie and Gale. I give a small smile at them. We were the last ones to go. The TV turns on. The scores start.

The numbers go through. The highest is 9 so far.

Gale's number shows. 10.

"Nice job Gale!" I tell him. Everyone agrees.

My picture shows. The score appears. 9. HOW DID I GET THAT HIGH? I was awful! Oh my gosh. I tied for second highest! Wow.

"You did great!" Gale says.

"I don't know how!" I tell him.

The crowd clears and I head back to my room. I lay on the floor by my bed. It's more familiar than a big puffy bed.

Something shines underneath my side table. I think somethings taped up there. I reach me hand under and pull something off.

I yank it out. It's a knife. I turn on my lamp to get a better look. It's engraved. Maysille D.

I go to the phone. I call Haymitch. I think he might know because he has been a mentor for a long time. It rings he picks up.

"Hello?" Haymitch says.

"Hey Haymitch, it's Prim. I was wondering if you ever mentored a Maysilee D." I ask. He's silent for a minute.

"Where'd you get that name!?" He asks all the sudden mad.

"Come to my room and I will explain." I say. I hang up the phone.

A few minutes later I hear a knock on the door. I open it and let Haymitch in. I pull out the knife.

"I found this taped under my side table. It's engraved." I say handing it to him.

He looks at the knife. His face clouds with sadness.

"Did you know her?" I ask softly.

"It's none of your business!" Haymitch says.

He shoves the knife in his pocket and walks out of my room, slamming the door behind him.

Well that was weird. I collapse on the floor again.
