Katniss has just won the 73rd Hunger games at 15 years old. As she struggles to cope with the trauma and pain and guilt, she also has to deal with the Capitol's anger at her. She is just trying to survive, in the only way she knows how. She will smile, wave, and play the part of the naive girl who could never inspire a rebellion if it means the survival of those she loves.

Set back in the Quarter Quell after the beach scene in Catching Fire. What if Peeta agreed to run away with Katniss that night when she asked him to? What if they never lost track of one another during the last few moments in the arena? Would they both end up in the Capital, or would the rebels rescue them in time? A concept I’ve been pondering over-a lot of “what ifs”
