The Attack on District 12

Chapter V: 13's Surprise

I walked to the hospital wing, a crowd of people from 13 we're lining the door. Pushing my way through the angry pushing crowd. I saw him.

I pushed open the door and my eyes became blurrier. My head had a little shake. His face was red with bruises everywhere in a bright shade of purple. You could see every slit of every scar and cut. His once light blonde hair was now a shade of cream, My heart felt like it had just been burned with lava. I fell to the floor clutching my knees, his eyes following me mine, I saw the shine upon the bottoms of my eyelids. The door swung open and Katniss walked in gently. His eyes shifted to be on hers.

"Peeta..." She said she sounded almost scared

Peeta rushed off of the bed and grabbed her neck, throwing her against a glass wall. The glass flew into a million pieces. In the middle of all the ruckus you could still hear the screams of Haymitch.

I tried to stand up to leave but my legs wouldn't let me, they were stuck to the ground like they were frozen there.

After I had finally been able to stand I walked up to the door. The handle was cold. I pulled it open and walked out to a crowd of angry people yelling at the door as if we cared what they thought. Peeta didn't. Katniss didn't. I didn't care one bit.
