Johanna was the first to move, reaching toward her axe. Rella caught Johanna's wrist and shook her head, murmuring, "No. Put Panem before me and your personal desire to right the wrongs done to me."
Johanna huffed and reluctantly let go out of her axe.
Meanwhile, when she saw Rella's two girls—who were clearly four or five—Lady Tremaine erroneously concluded that Samar had raped her former stepdaughter, gotten her pregnant, and forced her to marry him.
"What can we do to help?" Lady Tremaine asked.
"You can leave," Johanna muttered.
Rella kicked Johanna's chair and then, turning to her former stepfamily, said, "Please forgive the mess, your Excellencies. Our normal home is usually much cleaner. We've just been crazy busy and in an unfamiliar land."
Johanna scoffed and muttered, "True for the girls, Samar, Katniss, Peeta, and me, but false for you, Rella." Rella kicked Johanna's chair a second time.
Johanna, sick of being kicked, sprang to her feet. "So, wanna wrestle, huh, Firefly?" she taunted.
Rella wisely shook her head no as Katniss came over and said, "Johanna Mason. Rella Paylor Rosenthal. Behave or so help me, I will send both of you back to District 13."
Both Johanna and Rella nodded in silent obedience.
Lady Tremaine nodded as she and her two daughters and two grandchildren entered the hotel room.
