Me: okaayyy… Anyway! Enjoy the chapter!

To be honest I don't know how, who or what possessed me to become so rebellious. I guess with my mother so distant in recent years, and Prim finally becoming more and more independent by the day I finally had the chance to do what I want. I was never always this extreme. Everyone's gotta start somewhere right? It started off with little things, like talking back to the teachers and asking irritating questions, but after sitting through my first detention, just for making a snide comment about Mrs. Trinket's hair, I decided I needed to step up my game.

So the next day I put blue dye inside all the soap dispensers. By second lunch, everyone was walking around with blue hands except for me as I had brought hand sanitiser with me.

I remember after school, I'm on my way home when I hear someone running up behind me calling my name. "Hey! Katniss! Wait up!" I turned and met the eyes of Madge Undersee, the mayor's daughter.

I stopped and raised an eyebrow at her. She stopped in front of me and rested her hands on her knees trying to catch her breath. For a second I thought she had come to get all pissed at me for being the only one that didn't have blue hands. She's probably angry because she has some prestigious party on tonight and she can't go because it'd take forever to get the blue out of her hands. After a while she straightened up. "I want in." She said a new determination in her voice.

I kept my emotion blank but inside I was having a melt dow. How did she know it was me? Your hands aren't blue you numb skull! How could I have been so stupid!? But she wants in? Why an earth would the mayor's daughter wants to join in on my shenanigans? In fact it was so ridiculous that I even laughed out loud. "You want in on my chaos?" I asked looking at her with a smirk. "Good one." I scoffed. I turned and began heading back when I felt a hand on my shoulder.

"I wasn't joking," She said slightly irritated. "I don't care about the consequences I just wanna have fun for once in my life."

I shrugged her hand off my shoulder and kept walking. "No thanks." I said.

As I walked home I noticed people giving me funny looks, some even had the audacity to come up and kick me in the shins! Like what the fuck man? You don't just walk up to someone and kick their shins! What the hell is their problem!

When I got home I chucked my bag on my bed and pulled off my jacket. Only then did I notice a small note was taped onto it. In big, block, black letters, written clearly were the words 'I'M AN ASSHOLE, KICK ME.' I gaped at the note and then remembered Madge's hand on my shoulder. I felt anger swell in me and ripped the note off my jacket, I went to crumple it up but saw something on the back. In fine print it read 'If you're reading this Katniss then you probably hate me but here's my number if you want a partner in crime.' After that there was a number written down.

I remember calling it and she told me of her idea to put Styrofoam balls in the ventilation system. I have to admit she's pretty smart. So she bought like twelve large bags of the stuff and we got there early in the morning to pour them in the ventilation system.

By the time everyone else arrived, Panem high was a winter wonderland. No one found out it was us and things kind of hit off from there.

We became the pranksters of the school and continued like this for weeks before they finally caught on it was us, and when they did we had detention for a whole month! But it was worth it.

In all our time of pranking, I had discovered that Madge was the queen of comebacks. My mind flashes back to a time in class when some guy was hitting on Madge.

***Flashback***

Madge and I are sitting at our table talking when a big beefy guy from the football team walks up. "Hey," He says cockily "You and me tonight, my place at 7."

Madge doesn't look up and continues writing down what the teacher's writing on the board.

The guy sits there for a while awkwardly before asking again. "So I'll pick you up at 7…" he says again.

Madge looks up, slightly confused. "Oh, you were asking me?" she guffaws loudly. "No thanks bud." She says and resumes writing.

The guy scoffs. "I think you misunderstood, it wasn't a question…" He says cockily. "I know you want me Madge."

"Mmhmm," she says looking up. "You're so right. I want you… to leave." She says with a smirk and everyone listening snickers.

"Go on! Don't be shy ask me out!" He says, his face flushed.

Madge just smirks more. "Ok, get out." She says coldly. The guys jaw drops and he walks away flushed.

***Back to present***

From that day on Madge was known as the girl with the silver tongue, as she could make up the snappiest comebacks anyone's even heard.

Now my stage name, the girl on fire. That's a different story.

There you have it! Ominous ending! Oooooooh oooooooh! *eye twitch* Please review and tell me where you want me to go from here… or better yet how you think Katniss got her name as le 'Girl on fire' Next chapter soon!
