We all stay for the night . Its the usual , nightmares screaming etc. The next day Katniss asks us to take her to the nearest airport . First we declined but then we realized it was pointless. So we took her and made as if we drove away . Then we saw a giant thing land . And men in white security suits walked out with guns and lined up . We watched as Katniss walked in . Paige grabbed the nearest guard and flicked him on his helmet . He took it off and we learned his name was Ash. " Here is $ 500 and a camera record everything that happens and bring it back ." Paige says .
She grabs him on the collar " you beter not tell anyone . Got it ! " She threw him and he ran inside the plane . All that Paige does is smirk and gives Madison a High - Five .

They prepared me and we landed in district 11 . They rush me off into the justice building where I meet Haymitch and Effie ! I was just about to scream and run to them and give them a hug . They are the first familiar faces in weeks . But before I can do that , Haymitch bring his finger to his mouth to show me to keep quiet . He and Effie gives me a knowing look .
Then Peeta comes in and I couldn't hold it anymore . I ran up and kissed him and we wove our hands together . Clearly showing our rings . We look at each other and thru a signal with our eyes decide not to say anything . Effie gives us our cards of our speeches. We open the doors and the whole district 11 is gathered but what caught my attention is the two huge screens each holding a picture of Rue and the other Thresh . With families in front .
Peeta starts the speech and offers our money to them . When he finished they began to take us away but I was still in a trance . Staring at Rue . I walked backed to the mic and began to speak . " I didn't know Thresh but I respected him . He fought for what he believed in. If I didn't win , he deserved to . He showed me mercy , that's a debt I'll never be able to repay . "
I looked at Rue and my eyes turned glassy and I find it hard to breathe and to speak. " I did know Rue . She wasn't just my ally she was my friend . " It got harder one for one tears are begining to roll down my cheeks . " I see her in the flowers that grow in the meadow beside my house , I hear hear her the mockingjay song , I see her in my sister Prim . Who's too young , too gentle ."
By this time I was crying uncontrollably . " And I couldn't save her . I'm sorry ! "
Then an old man in the middle of the crowd brang the three middle fingers of his left hand to his lips and hold it up in the air .I'm speechless . One by one the entire district follows. I remember how I did this in the games after Rue 's death. I'm truly honored and couldn't help a tear rolling down my cheek.
Then a peacekeeper came and started to grab the man. Without hesitation I ran foward and tried to protect the man . Other peacekeepers restrained me as I struggle on their hold I'm screaming . " Nooooo ! Please ! " They drag me back into the justice building just as I see they drag the man on the stage and shoots him before the doors closes . I ran up to the doors shocked and I sobbed and screamed . I pounded on the door . Then somebody grabbed me , it was Haymitch he gave me a speech about how I have to protect the people . And I will try . I will best the Tracing . I will not be fragile like glass. I am the girl on fire . And I will get my fire back.

So we were all at Christies house , just chatting . I still like Jax . Sometimes he flirts back , but I don't think he likes me . That smile of his and how rebellious he is and he is actually super loyal and just like Jake very over protective. I think in our group you can call Jax the rebellious loyal one and he always listens. Jake the protective one and he is a good fighter .You can call Madison the smart one . She can hack into anything . She is like our spy . Good at getting information out of people. You can call Christie the trusty one . You can trust her with anything she would not tell and she can stand up for her self . Me you can also call rebellious . Katniss really changed us . Now that I think back on it . We were brats . We were the populars . We are still popular but we don't treat other people like trash anymore . Now and then we may be a little bratty , but we're trying. I really really like Jax but he doesn't see me . He doesn't like me back.
Anywhoo we are just sitting here chatting when me phone starts ringing ,its my mom . I run up the stairs and take the call . My mom rambles about how much time I'm not at home and doesn't spend enough time with them and that I must go home now. When I decent down the stairs I trip and I know I'm going to roll down an break a few bones but then somebody grabs my arm and pulls me closer. I stumble into his chest. Its Jax. My hand is on his chest and his hand is around my wrist . And the other one on my hip . He pulls me closer . Our faces are so close together , I can feel his breathing.
" You catched me . Thank you ." I whisper with relief " It was nothing but Ps. I will always catch you. "

The next day -
I went home but now I'm at Christies . Its just me , Madison and Christie . I have this awful headache and suddenly its unbearable pain and I fall to the ground . The last thing I heard is Christy and Madison screaming . Then everything goes black.
