--Katniss pov--

How did I survive? Where am I? What am I doing here? Where is Peeta? Is he even alive?

I have been laying in the same stupid hospital bed for an hour and I am starting to worry. What if I am not safe and this is just another part of the arena?

I close my eyes and try to take deep breaths. I really hope and wish that I could stop scaring myself with basically everything. I hear the door creak open and I open my eyes to see the blood-smelling devil walk in. President Snow.

"Finally waking up after this 4 weeks? You know, you should be grateful we re-started your heart and didn't kill you right there. It took them two hours to save that stupid life of yours." He says grinning like he a cat that just killed a rat.

What 4 weeks? That's a month! And god, why did he have to save me. 

"I don't care about my life! It's stupid and unuseful anyways! All I ever wanted was for Peeta to live. And I was hoping that I never got to see your ugly, snake like, face again!" I scream. Just as the last words leave my mouth I directly regret it. But he just laughs and walk closer to me and sit down on a chair next to me.

"It's sweet about what you think of the boy, and I can say; you have finally convinced me that you really love the boy. But I am afraid that the uprising isn't able to stop anymore. You are the Mockingjay, the leader of the uprising or rebellion. You are from the rebels side and not the capitol. But if you want to see your friends, family and lover-boy in District 13 you have to be on our side." He says with blood smelling breath. 

Wait... District 13? I thought it was destroyed under the dark days. And the Mockingjay? Why am I the leader of some role I never accepted? My thoughts wander back and forth until my brain stops at one thing. Peeta.

"Where is Peeta? Is he alive?" I ask in a weak voice.

"He is in District 13 with your mother, sister and that 'cousin' of yours, with the remaining people of District 12. And yes, he is alive, as long as you choose the Capitols side. And the same goes for your friends and family." This is just a trick. 

He is trying to get me over to his side by treathening my family. But I have to do it just to be safe. 

Wait. The remaining people of District 12? Fear rises through my whole body as I think of what he means.

His evil snake eyes looks at me and is like he can read my thoughts because he says: "I know what you are thinking. What happened to District 12? Well, let's make it easy. It's gone. Bombed to the ground just like 13 was. And that's what's going to happen to every District if you betray us." When I look at him he Grins and stand up making him ready to leave. 

When he finished I realised I have tears streaming down my face. District 12, my home. Gone. I dry my face and see that Snow is at the door, just leaving

I stop him from leaving by saying: "I'll join the Capitol, just as long you don't hurt anyone. Only me."

He looks at me and nods, accepting my condition. Then he leaves and I am alone.

Thank god everyone is safe. Everyone in the Districts. But now I am the one that gets hurt by them.

Then pain hits my chest and heart as I realise District 12, the place I used to call home, is destroyed. Gone from this world. I lay on my side facing away from the door as rounds of sobs hit me. All I have left from twelve here is the memories, but who knows how long I will remember them...
