Ruth P.O.V. I opened my eyes and looked up to find a star. It became bigger and bigger. I realized it wasn't a star, it was the force field, the arena breaking, and I had destroyed the arena. Would there be a victor this year? "...a reminder to the rebels that even the strongest among them cannot overcome the power of the Capitol..." Snow had said about the strongest of the strong would be triumphant. Her surroundings were set on fire. Trees went up in smoke. The floor around her turned to dirt, burnt.
Bits of the arena fell down next to me, creating a huge gust that blew past me. Unfazed I carried on blinking up at the bright sky, the real sky. A hovercraft appeared above me, a light came onto me and two other people, and it was as if I was going to heaven, that I had seen the light. The claws dropped, sliding underneath her. Piper wanted to scream and shout, to run away but I was frozen, helpless. Her arms were above her head, flapping as it moved her up, as though she was sacrificing herself. Beneath her the trees fell over as the jungle went up in smoke.
Her head rolled to the left as she slipped into a deep sleep. I woke up startled and I had a mask on, that was helping my breath. I looked over to my left and saw that Beetee and Peeta were lying next to me. She walked cautiously and picked up a syringe. She could hear people talking. "She's gonna lose it when she finds out about the boy." A voice that sounded like Haymitch said, but why would he be here. "She'll still cooperate, though?" Plutarch Heavensbee's voice said and it confused me. "Without Roy, there's no guarantee." Joan said about Roy and not guaranteeing it.
"Just tell her when..." Cato's voice said as I opened the door and walked in. In the middle was a table with a map on with Haymitch, Finnick, Katniss, Joan, Cato, Mox and Plutarch stood around discussing something. I looked at each of them confused as Haymitch and Joan walked towards me. "Morning Sweetheart." Joan said as I glared at them, before running at Mox with syringe raised. Cato managed to pin me up against a wall.
"What are you doing with them?" Cato asked me about the syringe as I struggled against him. "You with a syringe against the Capitol? See, therefore no one let's you make the plans." Joan said about the capitol as Cato managed to break my iron grip on the syringe and threw it to the side. Haymitch, Finnick and Katniss watched worried for me with a hint of sadness as I looked at him.
"What are you doing in here?" I asked him about being here as Finnick raised his hand. "Stop. Stop. Just listen." Cato said still holding me back. "We couldn't tell you with Snow watching and it was too risky. Better for you to know nothing." Joan said about Snow as Cato let me go and I pushed him away. "Where's Roy?" I asked about Roy since I didn't hear him on here. "Now, Ruth...you have been our mission from the beginning. The plan was always to get you out. Half the tributes were in on it.
This is the revolution, and you are the Mockingjay. And we're on our way to District 13 right now." Joan said as I the remembered Bonnie and Twill, they had been right. "Thirteen?" I asked about District 13 in confusion. "Thirteen, yes." Plutarch said nodding his head. "Where's Roy?" I said about Roy since no one answered me again. "He still has his tracker in his arm. Johanna cut yours, Peeta's, Finnick's, Katniss', Beetee's out." Joan said about the trackers. I became angry again since they still hadn't answered my question.
"Where is he?" I asked again about Roy. "In the Capitol. They got him and Johanna." Cato said about the capitol as I leapt forward and slapped Mox hard across the face and continued to attack him. "You son of a bitch! You son of a bitch! You promised me that you would save him over me!" I said to Mox about Roy. None P.O.V. Plutarch handed Cato a syringe as he came from behind her and used the syringe to sedate her. Katniss and Peeta knew the feeling of losing someone important even in the games. They knew she thought that Roy, Johanna and Cinna are dead since she last saw them alive. Cato held Ruth as she freaked out at Mox in anger over Roy.
