My eyes widen.
"Free?" I ask.
Glimmer nods.
I try to smile.
But this doesn't seem right.
"Are you sure?" I say.
Glimmer's face shrinks.
"That's what the man with the beard said."
So they remember me, but not Snow.
"A white beard?"
"Mhmm."
I put my hand on my chin.
"I'll be back."
I leave the room, only to be greeted by Snow.
"They aren't even free are they?" I ask.
Snow starts to laugh.
"Obviously not."
I almost punched him in the face.
"But I am releasing them. Just to mess with everyone's heads and stop the uprisings."
"So they're just pawns in your game."
"Exactly."
Snow walks away.
I stare into the window of all my old colleagues.
I rest my hand on the window.
"You're being used." I say to the window.
Peeta and Clove are talking.
Just inches a part.
Glimmer was thumb-wrestling Marvel.
Rue was playing with the younger kids.
Thresh was talking to Foxface.
They didn't even know what was going to happen.
"Don't fall for it."
