Just like the victors before her time, Juniper was put into the mentorship program. Although it was her choice whether or not she wanted to do it, she knew mentoring would mean Mags can finally have some quiet time in her life.

Although, Juniper questioned if it was even a good idea. However, she was doing this for her sister.

Bring on the 70th Hunger Games.

"You're missing my birthday again?" Lilo frowned, standing with her grandmother and her older sister near the front door.

"I'm sorry, but I got you a gift in your room. It's waiting for you." Juniper kneeled down, looking up at the younger sibling. "I'll be back in a few weeks."

"I want you to stay, I don't want a gift." Lilo looked down at the ground, Juniper sighed. "I was here for your birthday..."

Juniper frowned, knowing she couldn't be here for her sister's fourteenth birthday- yet the family had celebrated Juniper's nineteenth birthday together.

"I'll be back, okay? I promise. I have to go for us." Juniper said. The family of three grew quiet before Lilo slowly nodded, wrapping her arms around Junipers neck and running upstairs to her room.

"She'll have to learn the truth eventually." Her abuela voiced. "She will want to know when she's older." Juniper stood up off the ground and dusted off her pants.

"Yeah, but right now she doesn't need to worry about any of it. I'm going to try and keep it that way." said the victor. "I'm doing this for us."

Kakalina nodded her head and gave her granddaughter a hug. The two never wanted to let go, but eventually Juniper backed away and peacekeepers arrived at her door, escorting her to the place she knew all too well.

The train station of District Four didn't hold very fond memories for Juniper Plinth, however, here she was again. She was escorted into the lobby, and she sat there alone for a few moments until the infamous Finnick Odair walked in next.

The two sat in silence, barely even batting an eye towards one another.

Ever since Juniper quit the victory tour, she hadn't seen Finnick Odair. But whenever she took a quick glance at him, she noticed how his hair was grown out a bit longer. It was sort of well-kept, but not as neat as it usually looked. He looked tired too, bags under his eyes.

Juniper stood up when she saw two unfamiliar people being escorted into the building and down another hallway into separate rooms. Shortly after, their families followed. Juniper made her way in front of the train entrance and stood waiting. She felt an angering presence behind her.
