Finnick's POV:

"my name is Finnick Odair.
I am 24 years old.
my home is District 4.
I was in the hunger games.
I escaped.
the Capitol used to sell my body.
Annie was taken prisoner.
she is thought to be dead.
It is probably best if she is dead.."

I whisper to myself before I fall asleep again.
district 13 wants to transform me into a rebel leader as well as Katniss,but first they'll have to get me stay awake for more than five minutes.
even when I'm conscious,they have to say everything to me three times to get through my brain.
the doctors say it's from the electrical shock I received in the arena,but it's a lot more complicated than that.
I can't focus on anything in 13 because I'm trying so hard to see what's happening in the Capitol to Annie.
If I'm not tortured by my nightmares,which mostly include Annie dying,I'm awake crying.
Plutarch tries to keep me up to date,but I barely pay attention.
and even if I do,the combination of words never make sense to me.
One day Plutarch visits me together with Mrs.Everdeen,who works as doctor and takes care of me and the other patients.
"Finnick.." Plutarch says "I know it's hard for you to follow my words..tell me if there is any way,I could help you to focus on everything that's happening".I start to think "you could save Annie!" I think but I know he won't do that..at least not till I did something for 13."I..I want a rope" he and mrs.Everdeen glance at each other "Well Finnick you know..you could use it as a noose.." Plutarch says. I think about it a moment "not if it's thin and less than half a metre in length" Plutarch and mrs.Everdeen leave the room.
"Alright Finnick.You will get your rope,if you try your best to follow my words"Plutarch says. I nod"of course.I will try my best to follow your words."after Plutarch leaves the room,I fall asleep again. I wake up from nightmares and find there's no relief in waking.
I stay awake for a couple minutes and that's when Plutarch walks into the room holding a rope in his hands he gives me the rope and leaves the room. for the next days my fingers move rapidly,automatically tying and unravelling various knots.
