Recap:
I walk outside directing myself towards my house. I get there in less than 5 minutes. I hurt alittle to look at it. My house that I lived in for all of my life. My whole life was in there. I slide underneath the police tape and walk up to the charred house. I walk up to what used to be my front door. I carefully push it open, and walk inside. It was as though time had stopped. Blood was covering the floor that was unburned. Blood.

"Finnick and I sit for a long time in silence, watching the knots bloom and vanish, before I can ask, 'How do you bear it?' Finnick looks at me in disbelief. 'I don't Katniss! Obviously, I don't. I drag myself out of nightmares each morning and find there's no relief in waking.' Something in my expression stops him. 'Better not give in to it. It takes as long to put yourself together as it does to fall apart.' Well, he must know. I take a deep breath, forcing myself back into one peice." -Suzanne Collins, Mockingjay.
I stare at the ground. Was this a dream? I was just imagining this. That blood wasn't real. I squat down, and touch it. It was dry. If it was real, it would have been dry by now. Were my dreams correct? Did that really happen to my family? I stand back up and continue through my house. I walk over to my room, because our house was only one story.. I push open the door, that still remains half okay, to my bedroom. I walk in, to see most of my things ruined. My bed was in a pile of rubble, and my clothes were burned to nothing. I looked around, until my eyes spotted something gleaming from the sunlight. I walk over to it, and pull it out from under the rubble. It was a necklace that my mom gave me. It was shaped like a treble clef. I put it around my neck, and clamp it shut. I look down at it. And then let out a smile. Atleast a thing worth keeping, was around my neck right now. I looked up and smile. I knew they were watching over me right now.
"What are you doing in here?" Someone says.
I turn around to meet eye to eye with a man.
"I'm sorry... I'll just go now." I say walking by him.
I hear him clear his throat and then I turn around.
"You're not going anywhere." He says and grabs me by the shoulders.
I let out a small yelp before he ties a black hankercheif around my mouth. He picks me up, and walks out the back door. Into the woods behind my house. I widen my eyes, and wiggle myself out of his grasp. He easily catches up, and grabs my by the knees to knock me over. He continues to carry me into the woods, and to his car. He throws me into his back seat, and walks over to his door, and climbs in. I finally get the chance to pull off the hankercheif around my mouth, and say,
"What are you going to do to me?"
"I'm not going to do anything to you. I already did everything to your family." He says.
"You killed my family?" I ask.
"Oh I didn't do it. I arranged it. Your father was a handfull. It didn't even want that to happen.. But, you know when things get difficult, you kill them." He says.
"Who are you?" I ask in disgust.
"Your worst nightmare." He says before starting the car and driving away into the street. I see Henry walking outside, and I bang on the window of the car, and he looks over but, we are gone before he could see who it was.
"Why are you doing this?" I yell out.
"I need answers." He says.
"I need answers too." I blurt out.
