~ Wahoo chapter 16, how you like that! I really didn't think I'd get this far so fast, also I'd like to that those for the reviews (and for those who haven't I'd like to say something in a improper but then I realized your reading this so I'm happy, and love you and me! REVIEW, pleas. Also Maryanne in this chapter is going in and out of depression.
"some are born great."
"some Achieve greatness."
"Others have greatness thrust upon them."
~Diana's pov~
Depression, Sick to the stomach and head, slight Panic (ok a lot of Panic) a squeezing sensation in your chest, and Tears many Tears.
Diana wasn't ever this way all at once, she was scared so scared, but not in the way you might think.
She's scared to fail, all the work all the planning, and the loss of what that failure means would be devastating.
So yes she's scared, so very scared.
She was just sitting there, staring at the screen, not moving just watched.
Watched as it all played out.
But she wasn't alone, even if she didn't see him, he was behind her. Ready to be there anyway he can...
~piper pov~
Watching that was what I was doing, I told them of my plan in a hushed whisper.
Waiting for a reaction, waiting for the slight flicker of emotion that I was sure was dawning on them, there faces are emotionless, and they have gone silent and aren't talking.
I saw it dawn, Shock, Disbelief, a look that said: she's gone nuts.
You know the normal reactions, when you find out your not dying it would be kind of funny if not for the situation.
Vulpix was the first one to speak or more like yell. "WHAT YOUR OUT OF YOUR MIND! HOW CAN WE GE…" thresh's hand went over vulpix's mouth, to stop her from blurting out our escape.
"How?" thresh says, a hint of interest in his eyes along with hope.
A simple question, an even easier answer but very complicated to happen.
I flickered my eyes to the bag, and then back to his eyes a couple of times, he then got the hint.
"I don't really think I could put this together." I said, looking down in slight embarrassment, top of your grade for nothing.
"But I know someone who can." I said, grinning up at vulpix, who's eyes grew big.
~Maryanne pov~
Laying there on this soft bed, staring at the white painted ceiling.I cant bring myself to move, I done everything I could think of, swept the floor.
Moped the kitchen, washed finnick`s clothes (minus the boxers) clean the dishes twice, dusted, cleaned the windows, washed the sheets on all the beds, polished the silverware, took a very long shower now... nothing.
I'm tired but I can't bring myself to close my eyes, I don't want to really.
I just wanted to stay here in this comfortable bed, while in a world that's crumbling like this one; I just want to stay right here, where at least I can watch it all unfold.
I wish, oh how I wish, I wasn't here. How I know what's going to happen, even if its changing was a nightmare in itself.
How do I know that all this would change the outcome?
The answer- you never can.
I want that little world, that's Safe, Secure, Protected, where the fear at the door can't get in.
A place I'm prided to call my home, where I can walkout that door and see happy faces, not gloomy ones that are hollowed out. Where I'm not afraid to go out of the house alone.
I want that back.
She Tried to shake away her fears by reciting poetry.
© REENA SHARMA ~ moms hands
To the strongest woman I will ever know.
At first glance Mom's hands may seem crippled and meek.
She flinches when you bump them and her grip is quite weak.
But these hands are a reflection of the woman inside,
although burdened with limits, still strong with pride.
When opening a jar seems too great a task,
it's only after great hesitation that she finally asks.
Don't let that mislead you for you must understand.
It's not what they can't do, but rather what they can.
These hands have the strength to raise a family right,
to wipe away every tear and hold you real tight.
They come together each day in prayer,
and whenever you need them, they're always right there.
So if these hands don't appear all that tough,
Remember they're full of tenderness and love
and for me that's enough.
That poem brought silent tears to her eyes, thinking of her own mother. But she didn't stop, it was working on distracting herself.

Bottled up inside
Are the things I never said,
The feelings that I hide,
The lines you never read
You can see it in my eyes,
Read it on my face,
Trapped inside are lies,
Of the past I can't replace
With memories that linger,
And won't seem to go away,
Why can't I be happier?
Today's a brand new day
Yesterdays are over
Even though the hurting is not,
Nothing lasts forever,
I must cherish what I've got
Don't take my love for granted,
For soon it will be gone,
All you've ever wanted,
Of the love you thought you won
The feelings I have now
Won't disappear overnight,
But somehow, someway everything will be alright
I'm leaving now
To slay the foe
Fight my battles
High and low
I'm leaving parents
Hear me go
Please wish me luck today
I've grown my wings, I want to fly
Seize my victories where they lie
I'm going guys, but please don't cry
Just let me find my way
I want to see, and touch, and hear,
Though there are dangers, thoughts, and fears,
I'll smile my smiles, and wipe my tears
Please let me speak my say
I'm off to find, my world, my dreams,
Carve my niche, sew my seams
Remember as I sail my seas,
I'll love you all the way
"This one reminds me of my situation." she thought, but then moved onto another one.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
I shot an arrow into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For, so swiftly it flew, the sight
Could not follow it in its flight.
I breathed a song into the air,
It fell to earth, I knew not where;
For who has sight so keen and strong,
That it can follow the flight of song?
Long, long afterward, in an oak
I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end,
I found again in the heart of a friend.
"My friends." She whispered getting teary eyed, but she did not dwell on it.

You took my hand and showed me the way,
when I was blinded by unfortunate fate.
You took my hand and prayed with me,
while my troubles quickly faded away.
You took my hand and dried my tears,
when I cried over it all.
You took my hand and helped me understand,
when I questioned our almighty one.
You took my hand and made me promise,
I'd never walk alone again.
You took my hand and mended my friendship,
when I was too stubborn to say anything.
You took my hand and made me laugh,
when we remembered our funny mistakes.
You took my hand and made me see,
that God has a special plan for me.
Now take my hand and never let go,
because our friendship means more than you'll ever know!
"Finnick." Maryanne thought, and a smile she probably haven't noticed grew on her face, and that day all she did was recited poetry from that point on.
~piper pov~
I stand over vulpix; she's putting together, an electrical cord that goes into a small power box. She told me that it would short out the force field for a short time, so we would have to move really it once we get it up and running.
So far me and thresh were just waiting, I guess that's all we could do.
"What do we do once we're out?" thresh whispered quietly, looking up from the newly lit fire.
"We make a brake for it, there would be a peacekeeper vehicle that we would use to make a getaway and then we just hope for the best" I whispered back to him just as softly.
He gave a nod, and looked back to the fire. "I DID IT!" Vulpix exclaimed in triumph, we both came rushing over.
"Will it work?" thresh asked, raising a brow. "Of course it works!" vulpix chided, acting as though she was scolding a child, but her eyes glimmered with excitements in the thought of escape.
"Well what are we waiting for?" I said. "Let's fire her up." And vulpix, was doing so happily when the growling started.
"What's that?" asked thresh, hands grasping his sickle.
"MUTTS!" I yell, now remembering them. I take one of the knives I up lifted from clove, and ready myself.
Vulpix is working over time in desperation, while me and thresh stand defense.
Two are at the head, there claws are seemingly four inches and razor-sharp, not including there teeth.
I take on the second mutt that comes along, as thresh takes on the first. Vulpix is so close to finishing just have to hold out just a little longer.
Then I notice what mutt I'm fighting, number one, with jewels around the collar, blond hair, green eyes, glimmer… plain sickening.
And it seems that thresh is taking on district nine mutt.
"IT'S DONE!" shouted vulpix. "WELL THEN DO IT!" I yelled at her, ramming the knife into glimmer - turned mutts eye, making her go limp, killing her.
"Better her then me." I thought with bile rising in my throat.
I look towards thresh, he also defeated Nine.
Then the glow of the breaking shield mesmerized me.
It was pure beauty. "Let's go." I said, as I'm running towards its diminishing barricade, waving my hand for them to follow.
And we make our run not looking back and thankfully out running the mutts, which stopped chasing us.
~ No one pov~
-a breakout in the hunger games arena has been seen, the suspects are district eleven female and male tributes, piper rabbi, thresh miller, and vulpix crabgrass of district five. If seen please report to nearest peacekeeper-
~ district five~
a irruption of cheers burst through the citizens of five, cries and whoops were heard from all around. A family unparticular was made up of and older women, clutching onto two little girl, and an older boy around the age of seventeen. A series of peacekeeps were ordering the citizens to remain quite, but no one did. It was only when one of the peacekeeps raised his baton to smack a nearby man, that the oldest boy charged.
And began fighting a nearby peacekeeper, erupting district five into a riot.
~ district eleven~
A similar riot, was also taking place. The star family (minus Mr. Fizz) jinx and quelling were in there mothers lap, as poppy and wick sat next to the stole they were sitting on.
But rue was sitting front and center, a big smile gracing her lips as tears cascaded down her cheeks.
"She did it, she did it." rue kept whispering to herself.
~ Victors~
"Well I be a..." finnick muttered, flabbergasted.
"Hahahahah! that my girl!" chaff laughed, pounding the sofa with his fist with his shot glass forgotten.
Johanna's face blank all except with a fiery anger glowing in the depths of her eyes.
Haymitch said nothing, a look of confusion could be read, if someone would just look.
"Now would she go through so much trouble, just for her?" he thought, a suspicious thought echoing his mind.
"Oh happy day!" seeder said, who couldn't contain her happiness she kissed chaff. Who was startled, and when she realized what she done. Went to the other side of the room.
"How they do that?" asked beetee, who was thinking of what they used to destroy the barrier for such a time.
Wireless said nothing, a small knowing smile sketched onto her fixtures.
~ok that's all I have to say, in this chapter, there freeeeeeeeeeeeee, also the districts are acting up, don't worry katniss will set off the rest of the districts and is still the head of the rebellion.
