I received a beautiful review from a guest for chapter 11 in the story and so I thought I would write another short chapter for you all. Thank you everyone and reviews are greatly appreciated.
Chapter 12
"As I repeat, What the Hell"! Haymitch all but shouts at us
"Yes I agree with Haymitch, what the hell are you doing here Cato?"
"Well long story short I am a mentor of District 12 now so that means you will have both Haymitch and I try to help you out"
I am very shocked from the news that Cato will be a district 12 mentor I mean he must feel like shit because he's stuck with us.
"What, were you not good enough for district 2?" I test Cato,
"Believe me Twelve you need my help just like that night" answer Cato, I know he's talking about the night at the Justice building and I am grateful for his help although I can't help but feel that I need to keep a close eye on him. I know from previous talks with Cato he's very different from what the rumours say about him but I am going into the Hunger Games in a few days and can't help but to think that he did have pleasure in killing children.
"Go to your room Katniss and go to bed" Haymitch orders.
I don't argue with him and turn to walk out but without first giving Cato a curious glance.
Cato P.O.V.
She walks out of the room leaving me with a stormy grey eye glance, I'm about to follow her down the hall when Haymitch grabs my wrist pulling me back.
"What was that about boy?"
Why did I attack Katniss is his real question but I really don't know why I did that. I knew it was her on the couch I guess you could say I was curious to see how she would react.
"Look I meant no harm and plus just from that small fight I know she has a fighting chance in the games"
"You had to attack her just so you could see if she had what it take to win the game?, shit Cato I know you're from district 2 but anybody with eyes would know that, that girl has the ability to fight"
I knew from right then that Haymitch and I would get along. He didn't seem afraid of me, hell he even seemed like he thought he was better than me.
I walked down to my room, got changed into sweatpants and laid on top of my bed. I decided then and there that I was going to get Katniss out alive. I don't know what made me feel like that but Katniss was changing me for the good and worst.
I was up before Effie was shouting for everyone to get up because it was a 'Big, Big day' as she would say. I didn't bother to change as I knew later on I would have to put on a suit for when we arrived in the capitol. I waked out into the dining area of the train and expected nobody to be there but there Katniss sat at the head of the table eating a plateful of pancakes. Now I know it's not a big deal to where you sit but that was my place, I deserved to be at the head of the table because I was the most important. Well thats I what I thought, Haymitch would probably tell otherwise.
"That's my spot" I say, though Katniss just glances at me then back to her food and continues eating. Not liking how she rudely ignored me I try once again with a little more force. I step up next to her and tell her again "That's my spot"
"Just wait a minute" she replies with, well now I know I said I was going to help her but she was being a real pain right now.
"No" I growl. She finishes her plate of pancakes, takes a long drink of water and then simply gets out of her chair and walks out. I used to people putting up a fight but the way Katniss was acting was very frustrating me. I wanted her to fight me, show me aggression yet she made me get aggressive without putting up a fight.
What was she doing to me?
