This may be the shortest chapter in the history of forever. Its basically the only thing I can write without making Katniss out of character or anything. I'll explain later.

Katniss

"The Capitol. They have Prim, Katniss."

The words sounded far away and faint. I was speechless as I tried to comprehend what Gale had just told me. Mixed emotions of anger, worry, and guilt flooded my mind. Maybe I'm dreaming. Theres no way that Prim would be captured like that. We're not even in Panem any more! Unless...

"Gale, how long ago did we leave the Seam?"

Gale paused to calculate the exact date of our escape.

"A few weeks ago. I think they're prepping the tributes for interviews now. But what does that have to do with Pri-"
"Prim was chosen." I whispered. "She's a tribute."

Silence. It took awhile for the idea to sink in.

"Katniss, thats impossible. She only had one entry! One! Theres no way she could've been chosen! Its was a one in a million chance!"

"But it did happen. She was chosen." I said, sounding emotionless as possible.

"We'll think of something tomorrow, ok? Let's get some sleep. It'll help us think." Gale said, sauntering back inside the house. I stayed behind. It wasn't like me to give up easily. Going to sleep would only make me feel worse about the whole ordeal. Prim wasn't staying in the Capitol for long.

Quickly, I went back inside the house, grabbed my bow and arrow, put on my backpack and took a flashlight just in case. Just as I was about to go, I heard small footsteps behind me. Turning around, I saw Posy, clutching a blanket in her hand.

"Where are you going, Katniss?" She asked faintly. I flashed her a fake smile. Telling her the truth wouldn't work, because then she'd tell Gale and it'd all go down hill, but I can't lie to her! I thought as I looked at her.Think Katniss, think.

"I'm just going out for a few minutes. I'll be back later, just go to sleep, okay?" I said. Secrectly, I felt a bit guilty for lying.

"Oh, okay." Posy replied, rubbing her eyes and heading back in the other direction.

I'm coming Prim. Just hold on.

Gale

The night seemed to strech on forever. Prim's capture and Katniss' reaction kept playing over and over in my head. I couldn't help but feel really guilty about the entire thing. If only you had just stayed in the Seam. None of this would've happened. Then again, this is what you wanted, isn't it?

Shaking the thoughts from my head, I awoke in a manner quite unpleasent. Small sobs were heard from the room next to me. Posy? Oh no, she found out, didn't she?

"Posy? Is that you?" I asked, stepping into the room. The girl turned, her eyes red and puffy from crying.

"Posy, what happened?" I said, rushing to her side.

"Prim and Katniss don't like me anymore!" She shouted, crying even harder then before.

"Why do you think that? I asked, wiping away some of the tears. Posy buried her head into my shoulder.

"Because they never came back!" She whispered, her sobs turning into hiccups. Never came back? What does she mean?

"Wheres Katniss?" I asked. Posy shrugged her shoulders, and explained the past events of last night. Katniss had left, not telling exactly where she was going. So that means she's out looking for Prim.

"Posy, get dressed. We're going on an adventure."
