It was the day before the Games and Katniss was with Cinna in her dress for the interview. She knew that Tris would go before her. Katniss felt sorry for Tris as her score was low on her individual assessment with only 7 but who could blame her?
It was Tris' turn and she went up to the stage. Caeser asked her how she was dealing with all this. Tris replied but she was saying it in a tone that she was angry and worried. "I do not know anything about the Games. The only reason I am here, is to save Four and that's it. I need to win to save him. I don't know what is happening to him but one thing I do know. Is that the person that took him from me, is not one of the best people here." The audience gasped and Katniss looked at her with envy but also very worried thinking that the game makers will make it even harder for her in the games now. Although This looked pleased with herself and does not regret anything that she had said.
After Katniss it was Peeta Mellark. Caeser asked him if the was some special girl at home. Peeta thought for a moment and said,
"There is this one girl I have had a crush on for forever but I don't think she recognised me until the reaping."
"I'll tell you what." Said Caeser " you go out there, and you win this thing, and when you get home, shell have to out with you."
"Thanks but I don't think winning is gonna help me at all." Peeta immediately referred what he had said.
"Why not,"
"Because she came here with me,"
As soon as he finished talking Katniss was lost in thought and when he came she pushed him to the wall and started yelling at him.
Later, the night separating the games and the now Katniss went down stairs and Peeta was there too. They talked for a while which seemed so odd but Katniss didn't want to ruin the moment. Later he decided to try and go back to sleep. Katniss did the same but she did not for a while. She was worried about Tris thinking about what she was doing. But now she had to focus on getting sleep. She's going to need it.
