I do, I need you. #wattys2016

All part of a plan..

Peeta's POV;

I wake screaming her name. Everything's dark ask I try to take in my surroundings. My arms and legs are strapped down onto a thin wooden chair. I hear the squeaking of my chair as I move. But that's all I hear, besides the sound of my breath. Did they take Katniss too? No, obviously they didn't or this place would be in shambles. 

I suddenly hear harsh voices, and a parade of steps towards what I'm guessing is the door. I squint to try and see whatever's coming. All of a sudden a bright light bursts on and my eyes pull shut from the change. When they open again i find three men, all dressed in clothes, basically rags. I can't see their faces very well, but their dark skinned. Rags cover their mouth and foreheads and hair in order to stay hidden. "Who are you?" He presses the barrel of a pistol into my temple.

"I'm Peeta Mellark." I say hoarsely.

"Can't be.." Someone replies. "Chief!" He turns rushing from the room.

"Where am I?" I start to ask questions.

"Hidden." A harsh female asks.

"Where-"

"Keep quiet, Chief's coming."

A large man appears dressed in nice clothes, a cane in hand to help his apparent limp. He looks me over and gasps. "Untie the boy! This isn't how we treat guests!"

I scoff. "I'm hardly a guest."

"Your questions will be answered soon enough boy." They untie me and I start to rub the sore parts of my wrists. "Are you hungry? Thirsty?"

I nod and a plate of food is placed before me. A sandwich and bowl of orange soup with a cup of water. I look at the 'chief' questionably and he nods towards it. "Eat." He orders.

Hesitantly I do, but I still watch him. "So boy.." He leans back in his chair. "What were you doing in eleven?"

"Our district wanted some propos filmed for the the rebellion. They wanted Katniss to visit the hospital and speak with the wounded on camera."

At the mention of Katniss he's instantly interested. "Do you love her?" He asks.

"Very much, yes." I nod.

"Then why were you eager with being kidnapped last week?"

"It's been a week?" I ask shocked.

"Yes, but answer the question."

"I was fine with it because it meant she wouldn't be hurt by you guys. I would sacrifice my life for her. I just want her to make an impact." I let the words flow off my tongue.

"Even if it meant you dying?"

I nod. "Yes."

"Good." He says standing.

"Wait, can you tell me what's going on?"

"If I told you, I'd have to kill you. And that part comes later in the plan.."

I guess he can read the shock on my face because he reacts accordingly. "What? You thought id just let it go that's your willing to die here with us?" He shakes a finger slowly at me. "My dear boy, so naive, you have so much to learn."

He looks towards the door and beats on it hard three times. "RICHARDO." He bellows.

A man appears with the same get up as the last men. "Lock him up in cell D, the one with the television." He nods ripping me from the chair. He holds me at gunpoint as we walk down the hallway. I know to be quiet so I do.

We end at a cell with bars for walls. Then it hits me, this is no cell it's a cage. I take a shaky breath and remind myself this is for Katniss. He pushes me against the wall heaving my arms up and chaining them to the top of the bars. My feet are chained too, and already I feel them digging into my wrist. He turns the television to a static channel and when he leaves he calls out.

"Be sure to catch the show!" It starts playing our games. The first one, then the second one, until finally their done. Then a rebel announcement pops up of Katniss. This has been filmed recently, I don't remember doing this.

She stands in full mockingjay gear, bow in hand. But I notice her changes. Underneath her eyes are a dark purple, her cheeks are much skinnier, and her eyes are a dark brown. She hasn't been sleeping, and probably not eating. All because I'm gone.

"Citizens of Panem!" She screams. "The time has come! We must fight the Capitol, they are the real enemy. We must ban together and do what's right!" She holds up a flag and looks around. "we fight..we dare...to end this hunger.. For Justice!" Rues four note song plays as a flaming mockingjay appears on the screen. Then it goes back to our games and victory tour, all our interviews and anything with us in it.

And yet I wonder, will they kill me? Or will they just do it for show?

Gales POV;

I sit in command taking in the changes in her  face ever since Peeta's been taken. Her hair is in knots, her bags under her eyes turned purple, she has hallow cheeks, and is becoming skinner by the minuet.

She refuses to eat, she can't ever sleep. On the rare occasion she does it's for an hour before she wakes from nightmares. We talked of what their about; and their all about Peeta. Sometimes she'll bring Annie in and they'll cuddle up together whispering late into the night. It takes me by surprise every time; she's never been one to share with anybody except Peeta.

Today marks a week without Peeta in thirteen, and refuses to cooperate. Coins patience is running low with her. She agreed to start preparing for the victors rescue as long as she did a propo.

The meeting is starting slow, everyone is late getting here. Ever since district eleven, the districts been working in slow motion. Everyone been lacking the charisma. When everyone finally arrives, coin takes a deep breath in preparation to start another meaningless meeting. We never make any progress. "Hello Everybody." Katniss doesn't even budge from her spot leaning on the table. "I have a few new things to propose this meeting so if I could get your attention please.." She stands as everyone sits down at the table.

"What do we have to go over?" Plutarch asks. "We have nothing to do but sit and wait."

"We have a new proposition, brought to us by an anonymous source." Everyone looks at her hopefully.

"Well spit it out Alma!" Haymitch barks.

"We return to eleven, as soon as possible, we send Katniss into the middle where they took Peeta. After they find her we follow them and over take the whole place and get Peeta out safely."

Everyone exchanges looks and then all eyes fall on Katniss. "I know it's risky." Coin continues. "But we must push on and further our revolt against everyone and everything standing in our way. We must do this, she must do this; for she is the face of the revolution."

"Well Katniss?" Someone asks after a while.

"What if you don't catch the guys?" She asks.

"It's a chance we'll have to take Soldier.." She says slowly. "Would you like to think about it?" She asks.

"No.." She sits up straighter and shakes her head. "I'll do It, by only for him."
