Thank you for all your support I really mean it. I finally reached about 1,546 views yesterday… thank you (I'm really weeping with joy). Also, *inhale* IAmSoHappyThankYouThankYouIReallyMeanItIDoNotKidSrsly. Also, thank you for being patient as I was giving my exams. I hope I will be able to update more frequently. (I kinda made gale dumb in this chapter, please don't hate :p)

Also, shout out to Im a Castle Fan, nice name BTW.

Warning: to all the underage rebels, there will be mature language, cuz you can't expect a hot headed dude going through this not curse, unlike saint Katniss.


Sixty seconds. Exactly the amount of time given to prepare themselves and to view the arena. Eighteen years and I still don't understand why they don't get out beforehand. Anyhow, I don't want Catnip risking it. Although Mellark could try it, I wouldn't mind.

Then they show Catnip and Mellark looking at each other. Mellark is shaking his head and Catnip seems to understand. WHAT ARE THEY DOING, TALKING TELEPATHICALLY?

The gong sounds, and Catnip is stumbling around. Oh! If only you didn't WASTE TIME HAVING EYE TO EYE WITH MELLARK. She looks angry, but then grabs plastic and bread. PLASTIC AND BREAD! Then she tries to grab hold of an orange bag pack, which even District 10 wanted. Catnip looks scared, but is surprised by the blood splutter from his mouth. District 2 had decided to attack her. She throws a knife, but fails when catnip decides to defend herself at the last moment with her backpack. The knife gets stuck and I know what she is thinking. Thanks for the knife. She runs off and then the camera goes to another tribute.

I curse out so loud that Madge tells me to swallow a soap bar. Mrs. Everdeen, ironically, gives me a look when she herself cussed in front f Prim. I ignore Madge and mummer an apology to Mrs. Everdeen.

After the bloodbath(11 dead, maybe, I'm just happy Catnip's alive), they show a shot of the careers together, searching for something, and killing everything on their way. Mellark replica, who is probably Capo, seems to lead it. Man, I do hope he dies a painful death; he seems to be radiating arrogance and anger. I can see the rest keeping a safe distance except district 2 girls and sexy face, sorry Glitter.

Then they change through various tributes POVs till they find Mellark, who seems to be waiting for something. Then it clicks. OH. MY. GOD. "Sweet" Mellark is joining the F**KING CAREERS.

If he comes back (Which he won't), Imma personally kill him. I don't frigging care about who gives a damn, but Mellark Is going down.

CATNIP is a bigger target because of YOU AND YOU ARE HELPING the F**KING CAREERS to F**KING FIND HER. If, because of you, she gets a single scratch, I am personally going to make your life HELL, YOU SON OF A- never mind. When Katniss freaking finds out about your disgrace to District 12, I'm sure she's going to choose a slow, sadistic death. I would.

District 4 nods at him, and he smiles. SMILING IS NOT ALLOWED IN THE GAMES, ESPECIALLY NOT FOR YOU. District 4 raises her hand to shake but he just stares at it. Noticing his wound, she lowers her hand.

"What's wrong with your hand?" Capo asks suspiciously.

"Katniss shoved me. Turns out she had a crush on me since we were eleven and didn't want me to have the same feelings, because that would complicate things," he replies smoothly. I scoff. Yeah, and I am the president of Panem.

Capo still looks suspicious and says, "But..."

"It's okay Cato; let him not have any mixed feelings about his one perfect night." District 2 says and smirks.

And that's the moment when I realize two things. 1. He may not be lying. That she may really have feelings for him, and has enjoyed the "one perfect night". 2. District 2's name is Cato, and not Capo, but that's not important.

They show us various kills and how the career pack is especially strong and unique this year. Of course, we all f**king know what makes it unique.


Night falls, and I've just realized I've stayed here for the whole day. Madge, who is probably used to three meals, I think bitterly, hasn't eaten once. Mrs. Everdeen realizes this and brings a loaf of bread, along with honey. I am really surprised by this. Honey is super expensive, but she must probably think about this and present this. Madge takes a small bite from her piece, when I can't imagine having this without Catnip.

They show us the detailed version of the death of all tributes. The first to appear is the girl from District 3. Then the boy from 4. The boy from District 5 . . . I guess the fox-faced girl (I officially nickname her Foxy) made it. Both tributes from 6 and 7. The boy from 8. Both from 9. I think that's the boy Catnip fought the backpack for. It's the girl from District 10. That's it. The Capitol seal is back with a final musical flourish.

Then they show us various tributes doing something. The careers are walking. Most tributes are sleeping, including Catnip. I realize that she has a sleeping bag. A girl also sticks in my head. She might as well make the most stupid creature to exist list in my head, for she has made a fire. At night. That thing's going to stick out like the moon in a starless sky.

Then I see Catnip looking annoyed at the girl. The something like amusement crossed her face. Then worry. Then determination. And finally the last but not the least, Poker Face.

After some time, there were various snapping of pine leaves and the shrieks of joy from the career pack, Mainly Glitter. Catnip looks alarmed, but hides it quickly. There are shrieks of pain from that girl, when the career pack slowly kills them. She feigns death, and the pack leaves her.

But we all know her situation is hopeless. Even if she manages to survive with the blood loss, she will surely die of infection. Prim whimpers, and Mrs. Everdeen hugs her. Almost as if Catnip's spirit has reached inside her. She might not see this, but she resembles her mother in many ways she doesn't see.

"Shouldn't we have heard a cannon by now?"

"I'd say yes. Nothing to prevent them from going in immediately."

"Unless she isn't dead."

"She's dead. I stuck her myself."

"Then where's the cannon?"

"Someone should go back. Make sure the job's done."

"Yeah, we don't want to have to track her down twice."

"I said she's dead!"

Katniss looks relieved, almost calm, in this situation. That is, Until Mellark says, "We're wasting time! I'll go finish her and let's move on!". Hearing this, she almost falls out of the tree.

My heart sinks. This is when I realize that she may care for him.
