Guys I really need reviews so I know how it is going.
Peeta's P.O.V
Johanna is way over her head here. How could she say such a thing on live television. It obviously wasn't live because they edited it out.
"What just happened?" Willow asks
"Johanna just got in trouble with the president that's what just happened, I can't believe she just said that. Actually I can but it's just not possible." I reply.
"Here comes the arena, shush I want to see mum win" Ash is so impatient.
They are on the pedestals waiting for 60 seconds to go past before they can run. Jo is tearing up. The gong rings and she gets away unharmed, without a scratch, with knife or two.
"A knife, how is that going to help her?" Of course Liam is thinking of strategy.
"She will defend herself with it and take other weapons from people that have died, DUH" Pippa sounded just like Johanna then.
"Just watch and see, I have already seen these games, these games were my first year in the reapings, my eldest brother was in his last year and my other brother was in his 3rd reaping." Rye was only 15 back then it's a shame what happened to him and Leo and dad 18 years ago.
The boy from district 4 was so arrogant; he approached a lake with an island in the middle, Johanna was on that island crying, as he approached the island Johanna's eyes showed something else, strength, she whipped around and threw a knife at his heart, then she whispered.
"You should know better to attack a crying 17 year old, as it was this 17 year old was acting so that assholes like you wouldn't target me, but I would target you."
He collapses in the water and the cannon goes off, she rips the knife out and takes his weapons and supplies and walks off with a smirk, she looks around like she is being watched and runs away tears coming from her eyes.
"Wow, your mum is so damn cool." Finn is the worst when it comes to consoling people. Pippa and Ash are just staring at the screen as if they have just seen the biggest shock of their lives. They have just seen their mom kill a boy with a smirk on her face.
"How could.. could she do..do that?"
"Like I told you the Capitol change people, the games change people."
A few days went by and Johanna had killed the girl from 2 whilst she was hiding in the bushes whimpering and the girl walked past scouting the perimeter of their camp.
"Don't mess with me career, I am a very pissed off." She whispered
"Does she always do that to people she kills? Whispers evil things to them, I mean." Josh is looking at me with scared eyes.
"she only ever did it in the arena, I haven't seen her kill anyone outside of it, she wasn't well enough to go to the Capitol when the rest of us did, she wasn't there for the end of the rebellion."
"Why not?" Ash looked at Pippa with a strong stare, she returned it of course, there was no use in listening in on their silent conversation. Finn and Willow were edging closer as the games continues they seemed oblivious that they were doing it.
A few days had past in the arena and the last 4 people left were Johanna, of course, the boy from 1, the girl from 1 and the boy from 2. Johanna is left with 3 careers to kill, I don't know how she is going to do it. Johanna witnesses the whole thing, the careers break off their alliance and go off in their own directions leaving a few spear tips and food. Johanna scavenges these and settles herself in the canopy of the forest following the careers.
She jumps down silently hitting the floor when the two boys are fighting. She has the biggest smirk on her face I have ever seen.
"Hello boys" They stop and whip their heads around thinking it's the girl from 1. Their eyes go wide when they see Johanna, they thought she was dead or still in hiding. Before they could say anything one had a spear through his heart the other had an axe in his head. Both cannons go off and she just walks over them, leaping over like she doesn't want to touch the bodies, she smirks up at the sky.
"Is this entertaining you, Snow?"
"Why does Johanna do that? Doesn't she know she is making things worse for herself?"
"I honestly don't have a clue what went through her mind during the time she was in the arena."
The gamemakers brought the last two girls together.
"Johanna, isn't it, District 7?"
"Yes, you must be Scarlett, District 1" She has gone back to her weakling act.
"Don't play weak with me, I saw you kill the boys, I was just about to do it myself, I also saw you kill the boy from 4."
"Oh good I can be myself, acting is really tiring, just a quick question, which method do you prefer?"
"Method?" I remember this exchange between the two as if it was only yesterday when I last saw it, I didn't realise I was mouthing the entire conversation between them.
"Dad, why are you mouthing what they are saying?"
"Because Josh, that was the biggest highlight of those games, it was played so much in that year, people pratically memorised the exchange between Johanna and Scarlett."
"I mean which method of death would you prefer, I have, axe to the head, that would be quickest, knife to the heart which of course is a little bit slower that the axe, then I have cut you deep in the limbs and watch while you get blood poisoning and bleed to death. Wow careers really are thick, they don't teach you anything except how to use sharp objects."
"Do not insult my district or the people of it." Scarlett was just getting ready to throw a spear
"I just want to say last thing before I say goodbye, can I do that Scarlett?" Johanna has lowered her hand so it is wrapped around the knife in her belt.
"If you must." Scarlett looked tired of this exchange already.
"Goodbye Scarlett, I'll give you a mention on my victory tour." Before Scarlett realised what she said a knife went sinking into her heart quickly followed by an axe in her head. A cannon goes off and Johanna is the victor.
"OMG, I am never getting on the wrong side of mum again!" Ash breaks the awkward silence of about 3 seconds.
Liam's P.O.V
I can't believe Johanna can kill that viciously. The interview with Caesar comes on, the interview with her as victor of course.
"Congratulations, Johanna for being the victor of the 71st annual hunger games."
"That isn't something you should congratulate Caesar, I had to kill innocent children in there. They haunt me"
"Well Johanna, what are you going to do when you get back home."
"Probably go and chop some trees down, there is no way I'm hanging around on my sofa." She looks really bored about where this interview is headed.
"Is there anyone back home?"
"I thought you asked that before the arena when you are trying to make the tributes miss home even though you know they aren't ever going back. Caesar, there is no one back home except my family. Have you ran out of questions yet?" She laughs lightly to herself and Caesar joins in.
"Are you sure you don't have a special man waiting for you? I know now there will most probably be a long cue of suitors waiting for you when you get back home."
"Well if so I will choose the one I believe I cannot survive without."
Then there is a short clip of all the highlights of the games. We have already seen them all the way through. Johanna hurries off and then they move onto the victory tour, where she met Finnick, they both seem to have quiet conversations in 4. That puts a thought in to my head.
"Were they having an affair, Peeta?"
"Who, Jo and Finnick, No definitely not, Finnick loved Annie, she was reaped to get Finnick to work alongside Snow, Finnick still loved her after Annie had a meltdown. Those two are discussing rebel plans."
"Wait there was talks of rebellion even before the last games?" Josh joins the conversation. He has been a great pal recently, he has been going through what goes on and where everything is in the district, after all I am transferring here after the holidays.
"Oh yeah, Katniss and I just provided the spark. The idea of rebellion was around since, well as long as anyone can remember."
"Shall we move onto Annie's games or should we have lunch first?" Apparently Ash and Finn are motivated by food according to what Josh tells me.
"Lunch first; re-watching these tapes can work up quite the appetite." Of course for Peeta he was watching these games again. We all walk into the kitchen, we all sat around the island in the middle whilst Peeta made us cheese buns.
"So any questions about the games?" Willow is the first one to respond to this.
"Yeah, dad how come the 75th Hunger games had survivors, not victors, and how come you, mum, Jo and Finnick were among those survivors?"
"Well Willow, as you know me and your mother provided the spark to the rebellion, President Snow wanted to get rid of us, and they change the rules for the quarter quell, so they sent past victors that were suspected to be rebels back into the arena, that way we would die without the president being suspected, Katniss and Johanna were the only living victors from their districts and Snow made sure Finnick and Annie would go in but an elderly victor, Mags volunteered for Annie, she knew Annie would crumble. Beetee, I haven't seen in a while, he created a lot of hi-tech weapons for the rebellion, I haven't heard from him in over 10 years. I volunteered to protect Katniss, we formed an alliance with Johanna, Beetee and Finnick and we broke out of the arena only to be rescued by a District 13 hovercraft."
"Cool!"
"Not cool Finn, Me, Jo, Enobaria and Annie were taken to the Capitol we weren't picked up." Peeta goes rigid as if he is trying to get rid of the thoughts.
"What happened whilst you were there?" Pippa is prying into too far.
"Torture happened, Pippa. I would rather not go into details, I need my sketchbook." He goes out and sits in the living room with his sketchbook it has a number 5 on the spine.
"Does he always do that?" I ask when everyone has turned back to their lunch
"Do what?" Josh looks up from his lunch the others keep on eating
"Tense up then draws"
"Mum says it helps him get the bad memories and nightmares out of his head."
"Oh." Is all I can reply to that answer of Josh's.
Please R&R i am really dissapointed about how many people arent reviewing, i need to know what you guys think.
