I run out of the hospital into the only place where I feel safe. The woods. Ever since I was 6-years-old I had a strange fascination with the woods. It all started when my little brother Mitch was born. I had ran away because I didn't like Mitch getting all the attention. I am not a snob I just don't like other people getting in my spotlight. So I just ran out of the house and ran anywhere. That's how I found my way into the woods. I was six so I was terrified to be somewhere dark and scary. I had jumped at every sound until I started crying. Then I heard "Who? Who?" I looked up and saw a owl looking sleepily at me. Owls sleep during the day. I had woken it up. It lazily flew to me. It stared at me then cuddled up next to me and fell asleep. Ever since that day I wasn't afraid of the woods and every Saturday I went to see the owl who I named Hoot. Now as I ran into the woods I heard a owl hooting in pain. My heart skipped a beat. Hoot. I continued running until I reached the sound. Tears well up in my eyes. Hoot was dead across the floor. I know what Hoot looks like. I dropped to my knees. A guy steps out from behind a tree. He looks triumphant as he goes and picks up Hoot. It was the guy who wanted revenge against Mrs. And Mr. Mellark. "You killed Hoot!" I scream and lunge at him. He dodges and I hit a tree. Ow my eye already hurts. "Tiffany I'm sorry." He says, "I didn't recognize you." I rub my head and look at him. "I don't even know your name." I tell him. "Gale." He answered. "Anyway you killed hoot!" I scream. "That was just for practice and food." Gale says. I pause. "Practice for what?" I ask, dreading the answer. "Practice so I could kill Katniss and Peeta." He answers coolly. I gulp "Murder!" I exclaim. "You can't do that! I won't let you!" I say. "How are you going to stop me little snobby capitol girl." He says. I was shocked. I wasn't even a capitol girl! I look at myself. I do look like someone from the capitol. Tall great posture wearing a light pink skirt with a white tank top, already dirty, blond hair straight down to my waist. I'm a perfect image of a capitol girl. I try to run out of the woods but Gale grabs me. "No way I'm going to let you ruin my chances of revenge." He whispers. He starts pushing me to a little shack in the woods and throws me in. I bump my head on the window seal. He had pushed me that hard. I wish I was still in the hospital wedged between mom and dad. I wish that I never started that fight with Prim. I wish I never ran away. Most of all I wish I never met Gale. My head was throbbing as Gale slams and locks the door. I felt the light fading, I felt my head spinning memories that I wanted to forget swirled around my head. Finally I black out.
