Mystery Voice

This story is not connected to Fire Daisies or Panem High.

The songs in this story are not really sung or written by Katniss, but just let it go. She writes them in this story.

Peeta's POV

"W-What do you mean?" I asked unsteadily. This girl was kind of creepy.

"God, you're stupid. I'm saying we can creak Cato and Everdeen apart. Destroy their dates. Spread anonymous rumors. That kind of thing." Clove explained.

"What's Plan B?"

"There is no freaking Plan B, Mellark. There doesn't have to be."

Katniss' POV

When I got back to my dorm a dark-haired girl with freckles and an evil face came racing down the hall to me.

"Katniss Everdeen?"

"Yes?"

"My brother Cato can't make it to the, um, date."

"Why not?"

"He said something about Glim...Oh! I mean, um, I don't know."

What is going on with Cato?

"Um, then tell him it's okay."

"He said he can make up to it tomorrow at eight."

"Sure." The girl (I think she had a knife in her pocket) turned around.

Why couldn't Cato tell me this face-to-face? I sighed and went into my room. I checked Youtube. Dreaming with a Broken Heart was already on the most viewed of this week, and Boulevard of Broken Dreams was most viewed today.

The trending comments all were somewhat like this:

The Mystery Voice goes to my school!

Glimmer, date me! #555-555-5555!

OMG Glimmer is such a good singer...

Glimmer Shimmershine is the Mystery Voice!

I flopped onto my bed.

The only thing to do was wait for tomorrow.

I showed up at the date on time. But the door was black inside and locked. I waited, because maybe Cato would come and pick me up or something. But he didn't come. It got worse when a dark cloud overhead boomed, and the rain started pouring by the bucketful. I was soaking wet by the first ambush of raindrops. As I stood there helplessly, I saw a man walk past, his face covered by the shadow of his large umbrella. He stopped.

"Katniss?"
