Well, everyone had a whole week to rest after the wedding.

When I got back from the Capitol, my friends were into what happened... The point is that I arrived with Mehcad first. And there's nothing about Lewis, if he's coming back for real.

Or everything he actually said is true. It is painful to see, I don't understand. They must have done something to him.

Karen called us up, all of the winners of the Games during the week, asking for a meeting.

It was time to focus... We got inside a very large room, that looked like a class room, at the 52nd floor. We called it war room.

There was me, Ludi, Max, Brie, Talisa and Robin, around a table waiting for Karen to arrive. She arrived 20 minutes late... Next to her there was a black lady with dreadlocks, not so tall but she had an aura that looks powerful.
- Sorry, I am late! It's because I brought someone for you to meet...
- No problem, Karen - Mehcad was looking for me during these days.
- Ok, let me introduce... Our governor. Her name is Zoe Kravitz, D13's governor by right and she has something to say.
- Hello, winners. I am Zoe, nice to meet you all. I am here because I am not the only one who wants Tagawa dead. Right?
Everyone nodded.
- Why and how do you want us to kill him? - Ludi asked.
- Because he is responsible for the death of my father.
- I am sorry for your loss. - Brie said.
- He was an artist of uncomprehensive people, for the Games and even for Tagawa... He worked for so long for D12 and nothing happened... But I always were afraid to lose him, after all the threats he got.
- Where was your father from? - Max asked, but she didn't care much about the question and kept talking.
- He knew Tagawa's dirty little secrets! I mean, his vanity... My father had to find a rare lipstick that changes colors and prevent insects of touching people for him! It had a golden cover and a lion craved onto the top of it. It was the most precious thing that man had.

I had this memory of Lenny giving me the lipstick.
Is she his daughter?!?
I always have it on my purse... I didn't hesitate to show it.
- Do you mean this one, Zoe?

She looked at me in a mean way.

- You stole it from my father? - Zoe asked me.
- What? - Hold up, her dad was Lenny?
- Give me the lipstick, may you? - She had a rispy tone in her voice. Damn...
- Why? It was a gift from our fashion designer... - I said.
- Your fashion designer was Lenny Kravitz. My father!
- Zoe... I loved your father... He was super receptive to me - I said.
- How did you got it? - She screamed.
- Lenny gave it to me before I got inside the tube. To use in the arena. And it helped me a lot to avoid bee traps...

She got silent.

- I only knew about this lipstick now, to be honest. - Talisa said.
- I remember her Games using it, being honest. It was super cool. - Max said.
- Zoe, tell us something...? What's wrong, governor? - Brie was impatient.

At last, the governor spoke something with her classy voice.

- Okay, Fernanda. I believe in you. On our last meeting, dad told me very good things about you. We need someone who was popular back in the day, so Fernanda, you will be our Mockingjay. - Zoe said.
- Mocking what? - Robin asked.
- She is the one who will get Tagawa for us - Karen said.
- I am confused... What do you want, governor? - Mehcad opened his mouth.
- Sorry... I am not feeling okay. I have to leave. - Zoe left without telling at least something for Karen.
- Is she crazy? - Talisa asked. Everyone was really scared.

Karen brought her back and she was in tears.
- Zoe, tell what are you intentions, or else we will all leave D13. - Robin was so decided.
- Robin... I want to help. I wanna show all Panem that Cary Hiroyuki Tagawa is a monster, he killed lots of people for entertainment! Including my father... - Zoe answered.
- Relax, people. Zoe is a good person. She wants us to be together against him. - Karen said.
