"The next move is to kill me," Everyone turned their heads to look at him, Naomi's face saddened. "I murdered one of our squad members. Katniss is right. I'm a mutt," he said, Naomi shook her head. "And it's only a matter of time before I snap again. I'm not in control. I need a nightlock pill, so I can die when I need to," Peeta said teary eyed.
"If it gets to that point, I'll kill you myself," Gale told him with no remorse before getting up and moving away from everyone. Naomi went over beside Peeta, resting her head onto his shoulder. She knew he wouldn't hurt her, he couldn't.
They found some food to share among them, "I don't think I ever really understood The Capitol until now. You eat like this, you'll believe anything," Gale said as he ate the food.
The Panem anthem started to play again, moving their attention towards the TV again, their faces began appearing on the screen one by one, the cannon sound going off at each one. Finnick laughed to himself as he showed up on the screen, he gave Naomi a small nudge. "Guess we are dead now, huh," She rolled her eyes at him.
"So Katniss Everdeen, a poor unstable girl with nothing but a small talent with a bow and arrow is dead. Not a thinker, not a leader. Simply a face plucked from the masses. Was she valuable? She was extremely valuable to your rebellion because you have no vision, no true leader among you. You call yourselves an alliance. But we saw what that means. Your soldiers are at each other's throats,"
There was static interrupting him, suddenly the screen switched from Snow to Coin, "Good evening. For those of you who don't know me, please, allow me to introduce myself. I am President Alma Coin, leader of the rebellion. I have interrupted a broadcast from your President in which he attempted to defame a brave young woman. 'A face picked from the masses,' he called her. As if a leader, a true leader, could be anything else. I had the privilege of knowing a small-town girl from the Seam of District Twelve who survived the Hunger Games and the Quarter Quell and rose up and turned a nation of slaves into an army! Dead or alive, Katniss Everdeen will remain the face of this revolution. She will not have died for nothing,"
"I had no idea I meant so much to her," Katniss spoke, "Her vision and ours will be realised. A free Panem with self-determination for all. And in her memory, we will all find the strength to rid Panem of its oppressors. Thank you. And be safe,"
A flag for Panem appeared on the screen, then a photo of Katniss, written underneath it was 'Remember the Mockingjay,'
"Snow's in his mansion. Where is that?" Katniss asks as they all huddle around the table, she puts the Holo down which shows a hologram of the whole of The Capitol. Cressida points, "That's us. That's the City Circle. It's at least seventy, seventy-five blocks north," "Seventy-five blocks?" Finnick asks Cressida, "Uh-huh. Nobody knows we're alive. This is our chance. These buildings. Do these look over Snow's gardens?"
"I..," "They do," Castor says interrupting Cressida, "If he goes outside at all, I could get a clear shot," "We're getting ahead of ourselves here. Whether they're looking for us or not, we are pinned down. Hit that button. Scan for pods," Jackson tells her, Katniss presses the button and shows the pods.
"Just about every ten steps," "Yeah, that doesn't even show the new ones," "So we can't go anywhere in the streets," Finnick says, "And the rooftops are just as bad,"
Pollux taps his brother and points down to the ground, "There might be another way," Castor says, everyone looks at him.
