EFFIE'S P.O.V
As we walk silently down the deserted corridors I start to get my hopes up that we won't run in to any peacekeepers, but as soon as the thought crosses my mind Haymitch pulls me back towards the wall. A quickly take a glance at his face and find that he is staring at me. I turn away, my face burning. A rebel soldier at the front of our little group motions for us to keep walking but slower this time. It takes us a good five minutes to reach the end of the next corridor.
"Are we almost there?" I whisper to Haymitch, the sound of my voice causes the other three men to turn around and glare at me, this gives me a chance to see their faces.
The soldier at the front of the group is tall with a round face, his eyes are an electric blue flecked with green around the edges. His nose has a slight hook in the end and his mouth is twisted into a sneer.
The second man is a head shorter but twice as stocky, with broad shoulders and thick arm muscles. The mans eyes were brown or hazel, it was quite dark and I couldn't really see very well.
The third soldier looked vaguely familiar. I did a double take and realized that it was Gale, the boy Katniss was always with whenever I visited her in the victors village. His face was expressionless and something told me that he was only here to impress Katniss. Oh, Katniss, the poor girl. She had no idea how important she was to everyone. To the districts she was the face of the rebellion, to the capitol she was the girl on fire. Both roles were difficult roles to play, I realized that now and pitied her.
HAYMITCH'S P.O.V
Why was I staring again? Oh, that's right because I am stupid.
I am so confused, Effie is still Effie and when we get back to district 13 she will want to be done up again. Once she is all done up she will return to the perky, annoying, capitol bred Effie.
Nothing has changed about me except maybe that I'm pretty much sober all the time. But other than that neither of us has changed on the inside. I'm still a grumpy old man and she is still, whatever she was before.
So why was I staring at her thinking about how normal she looked without a shit load of makeup on her face. Again, I didn't know.
We rounded another corner and she whispered to me, I didn't hear what she said but she earned some pretty good glares from the boys. I shrugged at her, I saw her lower her head and keep walking.
I turned my head to look back towards the front and ran straight into Gale who fell on top of the guy in front of him, who then proceeded to fall onto the soldier in front.
Wasn't I stupid. I heard Effie giggle behind me and then cover her mouth.
"Who goes there?" Shit.
