Barren POV:

How could he? I was his most loyal agent, and now I may be forced to live with my brothers family! This is an outrage! I have searched all over this house but no sign of a jacket or any rebellion plans! How am I going to do this? A week! I am going to find those plans.

Whatever the cost.

Katniss POV:

All the time I was with Peeta, I was terrified. Did he know the danger Barren could cause? Peeta just stood there smiling as we were fitted for the Victory Tour. I was so thin, I had not slept a wink all night and had avoided Barren all of today. He had been wandering around the house all day, as if he was looking for something.

We had gone to Sae's for soup and we were talking about my "Father" coming back to town.

" You must be so happy that your dad is alive Katniss!" Peeta exclaimed and I put on a fake overjoyed smile.

"Yep!" I squeaked.

Peeta could always tell when I was lying, no matter how hard I tried to hide it. " What's wrong Katniss?" he asked quietly. If only I could tell you, Peeta. The whole world would be right.

" Nothing, I'm just, …. tired. Really tired." I responded, and really I was, but stayed awake all night to make sure Barren didn't try to hurt my family.

Peeta sighed, " Katniss your always tired, don't lie to me please." He looked so sad, his blue eyes shining. I owed it to him at least, after all I have to pretend to be in love with him, while he loved me from the beginning.

" Peeta, I am so scared." I admitted quietly, Peeta looked at me and wrapped his arms around me and I felt tears well to my eyes.

"Why? Why are you so scared Katniss. I won't tell anyone." He sounded so sincere that I nearly forgot about Barren's warning that I risk my family's life if I tell.

" You need to promise not to tell ANYONE!" I whispered hoarsely and he nodded his blonde head. I looked around and spoke quietly. " He is not who you think he is. Last night I woke up from a nightmare and I heard him plotting over the phone with Snow. I was trying to call you since you comfort me the most during those situations, but instead I caught him in the act. His name is Barren and is the Capitol's top spy. Barren is here because my father is really alive in the capitol and he hates him for some reason. Now he is here to find out some plans about a rebellion." I finished and Peeta looked stunned. A look of doubt crossed over his face and I quickly added " It's true and I know because he threatened me after he found me listening in on them." His eyes widened and he squeezed my shoulders as I cried.

" Shhh, Shhh," he soothed and I just cried harder because I don't know what I would do if I lost Peeta to Barren and the Capitol.

" He's going to kill me and I don't know what to do!" I sobbed . Peeta pulled back, but left his hands on my shoulders.

" I'll tell you what we are going to do. We are going to go tell Haymitch and see what he thinks. He is our mentor and should know things like that."

" One, he won't be sober,"

"When is he?" asked Peeta

I ignored him and said " Two it was hard enough to tell you so I don't want to tell another person.

Peeta merely shook his head and responded, " He is the only one we can trust at the moment, he'll know what to do. Sober or not." I gave a defeated sigh and set my soup bowl down on the makeshift counter.

"Okay. I guess your right. Let's go." I got up and Peeta did also. Soon we were walking through Victor's Village to Haymitch's house. I t was smelly, ( as always ) and messy as heck. I plugged my nose and Peeta did too as we pushed through the piles of clothes. I swear I thought I saw something move in one of the piles.

Haymitch was passed out at what was I think his dining room table. It was filled with junk and flies buzzed around it. Thank goodness Hazelle is starting as a maid here tomorrow. I pushed his shoulder. He didn't wake up. I shoved it harder. Still no response. A T.V. Blared out in the living room and I was shoving Haymitch so hard he fell out of his chair.

Finally, I got so furious and kicked him in the ribs.

"Wha- What? What the heck Katniss!" screeched Haymitch. I just laughed and pulled Haymitch away from his knife that was in his hand.

" Hey Haymitch." I responded. Haymitch glared at me through heavy hungover eyelids.

" What do you want girly?" He sneered. I sighed and looked around. The Capitol bugged all the houses in Victor's Village, though I doubted any Capitol citizen would want to come in this dump. No one did obviously so I just charged forward before my little confidence in this faded away.

" You know how my " Father" is here in twelve?" He nodded his head. " He is not who he says he is."

" What about it?" asked Haymitch, a little curious now.

" I woke up from a nightmare last night and heard him talking to President Snow. Then I found out his name is Barren, he is a top Capitol spy and was sent here to find rebellion plans that my father supposedly started. I don't know all of it, but he realized that I was listening and threatened me. He said if I told anyone anything he would kill my family." I was on the verge of tears now as Peeta wrapped his arms around me and Haymitch was wide awake.

" Your telling me that you are living in a house with a Capitol spy, who your family thinks is your father, he wants to kill you and find out rebellion plans?" Haymitch asked bewildered.

" I think I just EXPLAINED that!" I nearly screamed at Haymitch.

" Well were going to have to make a plan I guess. Why did you two come to me anyway?" asked Haymitch and I sighed.

" I hate to say this. I really do," Haymitch smirked and I glared at him and continued, " But your the only person I could trust." Haymitch was about to say something but all of a sudden, the T.V. Blared loudly with an emergency siren.

" Ladies and Gentlemen," we were all in the living room by now. " We are calling out an emergency search through the districts because criminals have just escaped by hovercraft. They are devious and cunning enough to have escaped the Capitol's hands." A few protests erupted through the Capitol crowd but quieted down soon enough." We have however chipped one of the men before they could escape. This is a map of their progress." A map of the districts appeared on the screen. Red dashes of a hovercrafts progress obviously appeared as they dashed around the woods and towards District twelve. " We are going to get them at District twelve and keep the citizens safe. Remember Capitol citizens, we are here to protect you. May the odds be ever in your favor." The Capitol man signed off his hot pink skin and blue curls disappeared off the screen. A picture of two men appeared on the cracked dusty screen and the men looked like they were from the seam. No matter how much they altered the faces, I saw the real men. The familiar faces that had walked through this town so many years ago.

One was like the man staying in my house without the scar, and one was the older vision of my best friend.

My mouth dropped and so did Haymitch and Peeta's.

I saw the faces of Mark Everdeen and Trent Hawthorne. Headed towards district twelve.

" I know what to do." Haymitch and I said at the same time and set to work.

Huh, I guess we are more alike then I thought we were.

Weird.
