Hey Guys I just want to thank you for all your helpful and frequent reviews (Bluedog270,GirlOnFire99 and Aloha-Pinkly are just a few! I couldn't do it without you) and your opinions on a baby names. Just know that some of your names are in the running but I'm still trying to decide so don't be afraid to comment and tell me your name choice. I hope you guys know I couldn't do this without you! You are amazing readers!

This is a shorter chapter than usual but I hope you guys like it. I've been at a retirement party all day so I really just needed to relax and write a little bit.

When the first gunshot went off my senses went into over drive and the hair stood up on my neck. I dove to the floor after I watched two bullets get lodged into the Judges now limp body. I looked up and around. I could see no sign of Katniss or Peeta. Good. I'm glad they got out. I shoot to my feet and see Haymitch running to the man and trying to wrench the gun from his fingers. Some of 13's citizens are pushing and shoving to get out of the room but the judges have the doors barricaded. It's complete chaos and for the first time in a while I feel my mind freezing up. In what seemed like slow motion I see the murderer pound Haymitch over the head with his gun. He falls to the floor. I rush over to help. 13 citizens are now angry they can't get out and have turned their attention to creating havoc. They are pushing me back, trying to keep me from apprehending the man. The man is screaming and his black eyes and hair are wild; he's crazy. Most of the others who were here to support Katniss left before the doors were barricaded but there were some left who were shoving trying to reach the man. I scrambled on the floor on my hands and knees trying not to be stepped on. I manage to make it to Haymitch with only minimal injuries; my hand being crushed by an angry foot and a broken fingernail, which is lying limp on the floor with a very large bump on his head. The crazy man starts screaming for me to get away from him. I look up at him, his finger is inching to the trigger and I can tell he's ready to pull it. I wait for him for the shot.

Katniss

I wake in a cell and it takes a few moments to remember what happened. It all comes rushing to me in flashes. Once on the hovercraft they had injected us with something. They had come up from behind so I couldn't stop them. I remember the sharp swift prick as the needle slid in my flesh and out again. That was the last conscious thought I'd had. It doesn't take me very long to notice that the dark damp room shows no sign of my husband's presence.

"Peeta!" I jump up off the hard cot and thoroughly searched every cold and damp crevice.

"Peeta," I screamed again only to be met with cold silence.

"Where are you," I cried and slid to the ground. In the fetal position on the cobble floor I pull myself together enough to pick myself up and to find a way out. I see a small which I couldn't possibly have gotten out of even if his wasn't barred. I go to the door and tug on it until my arms are weak. It won't open, even if it did there is probably a guard waiting and listening to my cries. I walk back over to the cot and sit down hard. It's then that I hear a blood curdling scream.

"Peeta," slips from my lips.
