Cordelia Benham a 16 year old girl gets reaped into the Hunger Games. Cordelia was left to fend for herself and her little siblings when both her parents died.

"That's Cordelia Benham and Finnick Odair right?" ┊"Yes, She won he games at 16 in...
It's chilly as we walk outside. The cold air hits me in the face and I shiver slightly. Noticing this, Finnick takes his windbreaker off and puts it around my shoulders. I hand him the belts of knives that we got from Beetee as I put on the jacket and when I'm done he hands them back to me.
When we make it to the tent I look around for Johanna, but I don't see her anywhere in sight. "Finnick? Cordelia? Are you guys with us?" She asks, walking over to us.
"Looks like it." He says, smiling and twirling his trident.
"Yeah, I could've had a longer honeymoon." I say, smiling as she pulls me into a hug as well.
"You decided that our honeymoon ended when you started training, the day after." Finnick says, lighting nudging my shoulder.
"Don't act like you didn't still get the benefits of a honeymoon." I smirk.
"Gross." I hear Katniss mumble as we get called over to the table by Boggs.
I turn around and see Cody finally making his appearance. He is coming with us to the Capitol and I'm honestly scared. I know Cody can handle himself, but I don't trust him not to do something crazy to save me or Finnick.
He comes up behind me and places his hand on my shoulder, reassuring me.
"Each one of you is elite in some form of combat, but we are a noncombat unit." Boggs says, making me scoff and earning myself a disapproving glare from him.
What does he mean we aren't a combat unit if I just spent my entire honeymoon training. For combat.
"So, we will be following days behind the front line troops." Boggs finishes.
A woman by the name of Cressida chimes in. "You guys will be the on screen faces of the invasion. The Star Squad. It's been decided that you're most effective when seen by the masses."
