Disclaimer: I do not own the Hunger Games not matter how much I would like to.

The people of 11 had distracted the Peacekeepers whilst I managed to slip through a secret hole in the fence, I had made them all promise not to tell a soul that they had seen me and now here I was again all alone in the forest with nothing but a suicide mission.


I walked through the trees my body aching from exhaustion; I got little sleep without seeing Thresh's face in my nightmares. I leant against a tree and scrunched my eyes shut trying to find the strength to go on when I heard it, a voice speaking though the trees. My eyes snapped open and I drew my knife, I spun around and scrambled up into the branches above me and crouched waiting.

Two Peacekeepers walked past, I got ready to strike but then I noticed something odd about them. One of them was younger than I was, she was dragging one of her legs behind her as if it was broken whilst the older one tried to support her and carry her through the woods. They didn't have the refined features of District 1 but the worn-down faces of those who have had to work all their lives.
'Come on just a little further and then we can rest. We're almost there I promise.'
I leapt from the tree and landed in front of their faces my knife still drawn, they screamed and the younger one fell over and began crawling backwards in an attempt to get away.
'You don't look like Peacekeepers, now give me one good reason why I shouldn't chop you into ribbons.'
'P...P...Please, we aren't Peacekeepers we're from District 3. We escaped and are heading to District 13 to start a better life.'
'And why should I believe you?' I circled her my knife held out in front of me, 'You're armed and you just happen to come across me in the forest. I've been hunted from months and I'm supposed to believe that you just ran away from District 3. No one escapes from anywhere.'
'You did.' Her voice was weak and she caught me completely off guard as the little girl struggled to her feet staring right at me. 'I know you, you were on the TV, and you were in the Hunger Games last year. We wanted you to win.'
'How do you know that?' I backed away from her my weapon still pointed at her face.
'Your eyes, I remember your eyes. You were always so confident and scary but then I would look into your eyes and I could see how scared you were and how alone you felt. I've never seen eyes so sad on someone so strong, and now they're even sadder because you lost the man you loved.'
'Where did you learn to be so smart?'


The women told me that their names were Twill and Bonnie and that a video of a mocking jay had lead them to believe that District 13 still existed, that they were fighting back and were going to save all of the Districts. I shared with them the food the people of 11 had given me and told them the story of my escape and how I was going to destroy the Capitol and how I didn't have time to wait for some lost army to do it for me.
'Come with us, you could tell them all you've done and they can help you. You can't do it by yourself, you'll get yourself killed!'
'Well maybe that isn't such a bad thing.'
'You can't just die, you're a symbol of hope. Like Katniss the mocking jay.' Twill reaches into her bag and pulls out a cracker with a mocking jay symbol etched in the bread.
'I don't want to be a symbol, I don't want to be a beacon, I just want them all dead. And if I die in the process then fine so be it as long as they come down with me.'


I left early in the morning before Twill and Bonnie woke up, I hoped they found what they were looking for and that District 13 was real and that they would have a better life there.

I was headed back to the Capitol and figured the easiest way to get there would again be by train but I had no chance of returning to 11 and it would take too long to walk all that way, it had taken me months just to get all the way out here. There was another way, I could go by hovercraft if I could get one to pick me up, it would be hard but it was doable, I had done it once before.

I started a fire with green leaves so it would burn higher and brighter allowing them to know where I was, when it was almost burning to the sky I ducked behind some bushes and waited. If they saw this they'd know that someone was hiding out here and come and get them. I sat for almost an hour before I heard the whirr of a hovercraft, I got myself ready and watched as three peacekeepers descended and walked out guns drawn looking for who started the fire. As soon as one came close to where I was crouched I lashed out and chopped off his foot at the ankle sending him falling to the ground screaming. I jumped up and stabbed the next one who had turned around to see what had happened, I caught him in the stomach and sliced it open letting his guts spill to the floor. I kicked in the skull of the footless man and took his gun and aimed it at the final Peacekeeper.
'Move and you die, now we're are going to board that hover craft like everything is okay, you're not going to raise any alarms or you'll end up like your friends. Now hand over the gun or this bullet goes straight through your skull.' He placed the gun on the floor and kicked it to me. We grabbed a hold of the ladder and he called up to the pilot all the while my gun was pointed at his face.I walked through to the
pilot's cabin dragging the Peacekeeper with me,
'Take me where I want to go or you'll end up like this man.' I shot the Peacekeeper through the head and he crumpled on the floor blood gushing from his face. The pilot just stared so I cocked my head to the side and brought up the gun, he spun around quickly and the hovercraft zoomed through the air. It took us 2 hours to get to the Capitol; I spent the whole time pacing the cabin back and forth with my gun pointed at the pilot so he didn't try to call the Capitol.

We pulled into the hanger and I made the pilot strip so I could take his clothes. I slipped into the baggy, navy jumpsuit and pulled my hair up hiding it under his cap. I shot him through the heart and walked outside. I slipped through an open door in the back and walked out into a long passageway, I followed it down and after a while I found what I was looking for, a room full of weapons. I skipped over the guns as I could do more damage with my hands and a knife than any of those metal contraptions. I walked to the explosives section and studied the machines that lined the wall. I grabbed the most lethal ones, Mags taught me about explosives she had used them to kill most of her opponents in the games after she had aligned with the girl from District 3. The worst ones for injury were lined with nails to rip through flesh after they exploded, they were also the best for ripping through any form of metal if the right amount of gun powder was used. I took as many as I could get my hands on and walked back to where the hovercraft had landed, I placed them along the wall of the hangar, it was bigger than the one I had been in when I first arrived so I came to the conclusion that it was the main one. Taking out their form of transportation would make it harder for them to fight back against any oncoming attacks.

I walked down the hallway and lined the walls with explosives stopping at the end of the hall, turning each one on as I went along. I snuck out the back holding the remote in my hands. I walked out into the night and hid behind the Capitol's justice building that wasn't that far away from the hangar, there would be time to take it out later now was the time to make sure when I did they wouldn't be able to fight back. I braced myself as I pushed the button and nothing happened, I stared at the device and took a step forward when the grouns shook beneath my feet and I flew backwards smashing against the wall as I pillar of flames descended upon me.


The ground spun beneath my feet and my head ached. I stood slowly, swaying dangerously, my ears were ringing and everything seemed red, people were running past me and I could tell from their faces that they were screaming as the black sky burned with flames. I stumble forwards as Peacekeepers swarm the area mixing within the frenzied crowd. I pick up the activator and toss it under people's feet watching it smash to pieces as it's trampled. I slip in amongst the people holding the back of my head as blood begins to pool inside of my cap. I see people abandoning their houses so I go against the flow and slip into a partially destroyed home. I stumble over to the medicine cabinet and pull out a roll of bandages and press them against my head to staunch the blood flow. I catch a glimpse of my reflection in the mirror and do a double take, my face is covered in soot and grime and my hair is singed at the edges and sticks up at funny angles, matted and blood covered, my eyes are crazy and I look even worse than I did when I escaped the games. I look like a wild woman, crazy and shunned from society.
I pull back the blinds and stare at the chaos outside, it doesn't look like it'll stop soon so I slip into the shower and scrub the grime furiously from my body. If I'm going to get out of here alive I need to blend in. I tug the tangles out of my hair and wrap myself in a towel. I shove my old clothes in my pack and grab a red kimono from the closet, I slip on some silver flats and wrap my hair in a braid around my head. I find a large white shawl that falls down past my hips completely covering my pack when it's on my back. I slip out of the door and walk down the street that's flooded with people, I finally get to see the extent of the damage, a huge crater has formed in the street and the building has been completely sucked in including a few nearby houses and most of the street. People are being herded into the Justice Building for sanctuary so I follow them inside in order to get close to the man I so want to destroy.

Servants have started handing out blankets and warm drinks to people, a waiter pops up in front of me and hands me a glass. I take a sip and immediately regret it, the world turns upside down, everything goes fuzzy and everything blurs together. I stumble and a pair of strong arms grab me. I hear a voice in my ear and even though the man is close it sounds distant,
'Do you really think we'd fall for that disguise?'


I woke up in small white room with no doors or windows, my head is pounding and I feel as if I just ate a sock. I'm wearing a whit jumpsuit that I don't remember putting on. I walk slowly forwards and run my hands along the walls looking for some way out. I hear a creak behind me and the wall dissolves leaving a man standing there his eyes harsh. A smirk washes over his face,
'Hello little girl. My name is Boreas. Welcome to hell.' He pulls back his hand and smashes me straight across the face.
