After a long time without seeing her, Ellie came up to D13 to pick me up. She would get me prepared for the main event. During the long way to the Capitol, I was on an airplane with my family, Lewis' family and the crew of Zoe. That's where I got my nerves out - talking to Ellie feels like therapy.
- Hey, Fernanda. How far you went, girl... I am super proud of you. I am sure that Lenny is proud of you too.
- Ellie... I gotta tell you a secret. Zoe is not what you think she is.
- Oh, come on, are you reading conspiracies on D13? Zoe is our savior. She is doing us a favor... I know her since she was a kid!
- Do you remember her walking around with her best friend Kasumi?
- I do... Wait, how do you know her friend? She was on Hunger Games. That's why Zoe is upset.
- Listen... Kasumi was a victim of the Games, but she was Tagawa's child!
- What? - Ellie locked up the door to hear more from me.
- Look. I got a chance to talk to Mr Tagawa. He gave me all the clues about the Kravitz family. But Ellie, you will not open your God damned mouth now.
- I... I hate Tagawa. He made my mom suffer. Lenny saved me and my mother from his tirany! She was a sex slave to Tagawa... She was raped almost everyday and Lenny knew about it when I started to work with him. You know, the Capitol is a dirty place filled with secrets...
- I know how bad he can be, Ellie. I almost killed myself in front of the whole country... But Zoe wants to do the same thing on Panem. But her way. Trust my words.
- What color of lipstick do you prefer?
- Nude.
- Ok, Fernanda. - She shed a tear when I talked about it to her - I guess we are surrounded by bad people out there.
- Ellie... I understand your anger. I really do. But our fates will be the same as what happened to my District. You remember that, right?
- I was there when the first bombs were thrown into the mines. Lots of people died. Mr. Tan and his family helped me to escape, and I will be forever grateful for them.
- Tagawa didn't destroy District 12... Zoe did. Trust me, I heard it from a man with his fate defined by a fake story. Ellie... Do whatever you want to. I am just saying that our lives will not be the same way as before. With or without Tagawa on command.
- I understand your situation, Fer. I... I didn't know Zoe's friend was Tagawa's daughter...
- When all of this ends, everything will make sense to you. Thank you for the make up, I am looking amazing. You know that I will be here for you, so is Lewis.
- Good luck out there. Call Ms. Tan now please, and let me do her make up. - She gave me a smile.
I didn't know how Ellie suffered with all of this madness from the Capitol's backstage... I hope I can give her the best life she can have.

I arrived at the airport and we went straight to the Capitol's Coliseum. It was filled with people from all districts, even from the D1 which was not destroyed, but they suffered a lot without the resources from the other districts. Lewis was recovered from the medical procedures and he's free from Tagawa. Thank God for that... So now he's with me, giving me support.
- Are you okay, Fer? - Lewis asked me.
- I am good. A little nervous, that's all. He came up with the weapon that I would use... And for my surprise it's not a gun.
- Hey, Fer. This shuriken was from Robin. He would want to throw it into Tagawa's throat. How are you feeling? Took your pills?
- Yeah, I did. And brought more for the night. Tomorrow we'll be going back home... Right, Lewis?
- Yes, my love. We will go back home at peace.
- This weapon... it's... familiar - I was looking at the shuriken. It was written with some words in Japanese.
- Lewis. Mind to translate this?
- What? - He asked me.
- These symbols. It's an old language. I think it is japanese. - I said.
- Okay, let me see it. And... It's done.
- What does it say?
- Something like a name of a girl. Tagawa Kasumi.
- Kasumi??? - I was in shock.
- What's wrong? It was a prize of Robin. He would want you to kill Tagawa with this...
- You have no idea of what I found out.
I had to stop the talking. I would tell Lewis about what Simu and I found out, but Ellie came up with my outfit.
- Fer... Look at this outfit. It's an all white dress with a loose skirt. It is long but it will lift you up with the wind. - Ellie said.
- I see. Okay, when I get in? - I asked.
- They are tying Tagawa up on a cross. Just like Jesus Christ... A old story from Christians. - Lewis said.
- My mom is catholic, I know the story. But he is no savior...
- I don't know why it's a cross, but you know that you should throw the shuriken at his throat, right? - Lewis said.
- I will do that! - I said. My mind was boiling and I was freaking out.
Then, someone who was working at the coliseum said that it was time to go.
