A Meeting
We sit around a table, myself in an ugly rebel uniform. All the Victors (or all who are left). Katniss walks in. "What's this?" she asks.
"We're not sure, it appears to be a gathering of the remaining Victors." says Haymitch solemnly. "We're all that's left?" Katniss asks and I gulp, Finnick should be here. But I've accepted he's not and he's never going to be here! I ignore them thinking of Finnick until in walks President Coin. She says about the Mockingjay agreement. Katniss sits down next to me in her fancy Mockingjay outfit with the same old braid.
"I've asked you here to settle a debate. Today we will execute Snow. In the previous weeks, hundreds of his accomplices in the oppression of Panem have been suffering in the districts has been so extreme that these measures appear insufficient to the victims. In fact, many are calling for a complete annihilation of those who held Capitol citizenry. However, in the interest of maintaining a sustainable population we can't afford this." she says, "So, an alternative has been placed on the table. Since my colleagues and I can come to no consensus, it has been agreed we will let the victors decide. A majority of four will approve the plan. No one may abstain from the vote. What has been proposed is that in lieu of eliminating the entire Capitol population, we have a final, symbolic Hunger Games, using the children directly related to those who held the most power."
I quickly turn to her, I haven't taken it in properly, what she's saying but I know it's bad. "What?" asks Joanna which is what we're all thinking.
"We hold another Hunger Games using Capitol children." she says and I suddenly feel a rage of anger towards her. She can't do it, it's barbaric! "Are you joking?" asks Peeta. I can't really pay attention because I hate her so much. Another Hunger Games, it's mad, she's mad. Peeta has sense though, he tells her no. My faith is restored in humanity a little. Then Joanna and Enobaria agree with Coin. I look at Joanna with an expression saying 'what the hell do you think you're doing.'
"This is why we rebelled! Remember?" Peeta exclaims, he looks towards me and asks, "Annie?"
"I vote no with Peeta," I tell them; I know what Finnick would have wanted, "So would Finnick if he were here."
I hope that the rest vote no. I hope my words that Finnick wouldn't have wanted it will bring sense. Beetee says no. But then Katniss and Haymitch vote yes! I can't believe that Katniss would agree, did Finnick mean nothing to her? They're having a Hunger Games but I for one refuse to be part of it. Now we have to go outside to watch Snow's execution, I don't want to see another death, then again Snow is an evil Dictator who has cold heartedly killed so many, including Andy and Finnick, I have no sympathy for him. But Katniss doesn't shoot Snow! She shoots Coin. I don't care though. I don't want another Hunger Games! It would be wrong, hypocritical. I hear screams cries, everything become a blur. It reminds me of being back in the Capitol in the cell and I fall to the ground and try to block out everything around me, trying to make the cold uninviting cell disappear.
