Prim POV

Tears started to drip down my face slowly as I look at the glass in my palm. This glass is like my life, I thought, it is shattered and painful. The man unlocked a door and flipped a switch. Glaring white lights illuminated a painfully eggshell colored wall and I saw that inside was a doctors office. "Haymitch has more accidents than the general public knows about so we had to put a doctors lab in here. He constantly steps on glass containers so we were able to create a bandage that will heal your wound in only half an hour. By the way, my name is Sam." "Thank you...Sam." "My pleasure. Effie has this weird fetish with gloves so there is bound to be one outfit with a pair of gloves in your room. If there is, put it on so no one will notice your injury. We don't want people asking questions." I watched as he expertly picked up a pair of tweezers and grasped the glass. "This is going to hurt." He warned seconds before yanking it out. I stiffled a scream, it hurt like crazy and the wound had started to pour out blood. Quickly, Sam slapped a bandage on it and the pain started to recede slowly. "Thank you." I said." So...what was that room?" He sighed and sat down. This happens every games. The game makers use the avoxs to make the muts, a horrible form of torture. Tehy take the best scientists they can find and force them to work. I was forced as well. The point is that the avox loses all control of their body but their mind remains intact so they can watch the evil things their body was used for." he replied, his face a mixture of tiredness and disgust. "Is there anything you can do?" I asked. "Actually," he said with a slight look of hope, "there just might be."
