Chapter 21 The cat and the mouse
When I wake up, I am in the cave from the first day. It is dark outside, and I look down at my legs. They were still crippled and bent, but I couldn't feel any pain.
"How are you?" asks Braen, I turn my head to see him in the corner, his face darken in a shadow.
"My legs..." I begin, but then trail off, Baren smiles and holds up a empty needle, which shines in the artificial moonlight. He says one word. "Morphling" So that is what Morphling is like...all pink bunnies and candy grass, but then something hits me, mentally of course,
"You saved my life" Baren looks down shyly at his filthy hiking boots,
"...It's fine...you would have done the same for me..." I smile, but then something else hits me, Would I? Would I saved Baren's? I pause for a few seconds not knowing what to do. I decide to change the subject.
"Who else is dead?" He looks at me with pity
"Hades"
I shrug "That's a career anyway"
"They still have Blye though"
The world stops for a moment
"W-why isn't she dead?"
Baren looks at me with pity, again
"Two possible reasons...One she could have side-"
"No" I say simply "Blye would never do that"
"Did you think Haden would"
I look at him, not with anger, but sadness,
"No"
Baren nods knowing he got let off easily
"And the other reason is more possible..."
"What?"
"They're keeping her as hostage"
"...why would they do that?"
"Because when the Capilotes get bored, the Gamemakers pull in all of the weird and horrible Mutts. Mutts are made in the Capitol for the games. They are designed to kill and draw tributes together. Jennalee is biding time. So...they torture Blye everyday, until you get better, because if Jennalee is torturing...the Capitol are gonna have some great entertainment..."
I gasp. Then Baren adds...
"I think they started today...I heard screams from the mountain..."
Jennalee is drawing me in. She wants me to come for Blye. We are now playing a dangerous game of Cat and Mouse...
