"Juniper Plinth, better known as The Serpent. Capitol favorite, she's their doll. She's a deadly threat, and most importantly, a career. Juniper is agile, sneaky, and quick, you'd never see her coming. She's one of the deadliest victors you'll ever...
Juniper and Finnick were falling slightly behind, but once they got up the stairs, they noticed a 'Wanted' sign, seeing Lennox's face on the screen. The death hadn't hit Juniper quite yet, but she felt her heart aching. He was gone.
Cressida must've realized who Juniper was talking about, since she had started banging on the door into the shop she had visited so many times before. The door was opened by a hooded figure, letting everybody in.
Once Juniper and Finnick stumbled in, the door was shut behind them. Katniss aimed an arrow at Tigris, but Cressida assured her everything was fine and she was friendly.
"Tigris." Juniper smiled, causing Tigris to look at her. Tigris smiled, but noticed the situation Finnick was in. She immediately led them over to the back of the store and around a corner. She lifted a carpet from the floor and revealed a hatch. She unlocked it and opened it, revealing a basement.
"I know you." Katniss spoke, earning Tigris's attention. "You were a stylist in the games."
"Until Snow decided I wasn't pretty enough anymore." Tigris said. That sentence had hurt Juniper, knowing the history of the two. Tigris deserved nothing Snow had caused her, and it pained her to see her end up this way.
"I'm here to kill him."
Tigris responded with a smile. Juniper grabbed Finnicks hands and slowly led him down the stairs to the basement. "Tigris, do you have medical equipment?"
"It's down there." She spoke. Juniper led Finnick the rest of the way down and sat him down, leaning him against the wall. Everyone followed behind, Katniss helped Peeta while Cashmere lended a hand to Juniper.
Finnick was groaning in pain, but Juniper had to take off some of his clothes to get to the wound. She took off his vest, then lifted his shirt up over his head, putting pressure on his gunshot wound.
"Cashmere, can you keep pressure on this?" Juniper asked, Cashmere moved positions to Finnick's side and kept a hand on both sides of his shoulder, trying to stop the blood pouring through. "At least the bullet went fully though, we don't have to dig it out!"
Finnick tried laughing at Juniper's comment, but he ended up just coughing. It was fine at first, until he started coughing up some blood. He looked up at June with worry, but she shook her head.
"No, no. It's going to be fine, okay?" She rolled up one of his pant legs, exposing the giant bite mark given to him by one of the mutts.
