{COMPLETED} Mockingjay's Flight (#Wattys2017)

Unknown Leavers

I stare outside, my pale reflection looking at me. I look tall and older, but here I am 5"9 and mistaken 23 when I am 15. I do look like I don't fit with the other tributes. I wonder, if I will leave, or learn to survive in the games. I look up. Hugo walks over to me. "I think I'm going to leave, and you die in the games." He says. I get up, turn around and punch him. "Idiot." I shout. "You would die the first day!" "I hate you, ever since you stopped me from hurting your sister." Hugo shouts.

I kick him. Realizing that nobody has came to see this. Earlier, Effie left to go talk to the other District Escorts. Katniss and Peeta, were talking to Misson Mockingjay last time I checked. Hugo throws a punch at me. I try to block it, but I'm too late. My vision goes black, as I scream. Everything goes silent.

Later...

I wake to the sound of voices. I lay in a hospital like bed. "Where am I?" I ask. Someone grabs my hand. "Your still in the Training Centre." Katniss's voice says. "Ok." I mumble. I lay on the bed, my vision coming intact. "Her, the District 12 tribute, departure is still be thought through." Someone says. I lay there. Thinking about what that means. Does it mean I have a chance of leaving this? Not having a chance of death?

After a while, I sit up. "You ready to take her upstairs Katniss?" Peeta looks across the room. "How long was I out?" I ask. "19 hours. They postponed the ceremony of who will leave or not. All the tributes, even if the will be told to leave tonight, went to training yesterday after you were punched." Katniss smiles.

Katniss grabs my hand, takes me out of bed and to the elevator. I am wearing a T-shirt with sweatpants. The most soft pair of sweatpants to be exact. She looks at me, as we wait for the elevator. "We were told, by Huntvine, that we can can give a backpack full of stuff to our tributes." Katniss looks back at the elevator, and it opens. The elevator is empty. We walk in. "After the ceremony if you get to stay, I'll show you what I packed in thr bag. Oh, they also start the games in 4 days. Tonight the interviews will take place, after who leaves and who doesn't is announced." She looks at at the ground.

Later, I find myself dressed in a dress that was laying on my bed. I think Calissa made it. I tie my hair in a bun, and add some make-up to my pale face. I walk out of my room, not saying a word. Katniss meets me half way. "The Boys?" I ask. "Downstairs already." She responds. The elevator glides down, and it stops on the 2nd floor. We are underneath the stage, where the ceremony will take place. Katniss nods, and walks off. I step into a glass pod, which Katniss pointed to before she left. I see 24 other pods, with tributes in them. The Capitol's anthem plays, and the pods lift.

"Welcome!" Elizabeth Huntvine says. She smiles. "Let's just get into the leavers just, to get the awkwardness lifted." Her hair is black, and she looks 30ish. Her eyes are green, and her skin is dark tanned. She smiles. Elizabeth Huntvine has a plan for us. I know it. "The following names, are the tributes of this year's games. If you don't hear you're name, you have pure luck, and shall be removed from the 80th Hunger Games!"
