Chapter Five: Meeting The Mockingjay

"Whoa, who are these two?!" Katniss asks, shocked by the still-sparring girls.

"This is Allie and Cat. They're rebels, just like we are," Plutarch tells her, having had to guide them to their room after Haymitch had taken to a mental breakdown and Effie had been the one to take him to his room, at the other end of the house, to soothe him.

"Okay, why are they here?" Katniss asks, looking warily at them as they polish off their third bottles of Mountain Dew and return to sparring.

"Ms Trinket saw fit to bring them along after they had a rough encounter with some of Snow's loyalists," Plutarch sighs heavily. "You and I both know that it's best just to give Ms Trinket her way in these situations, as she's as persistent and stubborn as Haymitch is."

Katniss nods, resigned to Effie's persistance since her first Games. "So she picked these two up?"

"Yes..." Plutarch sighs. "She did. And while Haymitch and I would happily have thrown them both from the hovercraft, Effie wouldn't let us. It seems she's taken a shine to them."

Allie lunges for Cat, who shrieks and dodges, lunging with her own pen. "Bite me, sister!" she yells, dancing out of Allie's pen's reach.

"I would stab you with this pen if you'd just stay still!" Allie shrieks back, lunging again.

"How long have they been like this?" Katniss asks, a little afraid of their antics.

"Unfortunately, for the entire hovercraft ride, which is why Haymitch and I wanted to throw them out of the hovercraft," Plutarch tells her, sounding defeated. "Effie's letting them keep their caffeinated drinks, which is why they're so hyperactive."

"We're not hyperactive, we're just fun!" Allie squeals, dodging Cat's pen.

"Maybe they'll have heart attacks from how fast the caffeine is making them work and the extreme exercise," Plutarch offers, a dark part of him hoping that he's right.

Katniss sighs, then says "I hope not, Effie's got enough death to deal with... She must like these two if she didn't pitch them out of a hovercraft. Give her my best when you see her, she's gonna need it."

Allie and Cat play-spar until Plutarch shows them the twin room with the two beds, one on either side of the pristine room. "Try not to kill each other," he tells them, leaving the girls to spar it out with each other.
