The Hunger Games - Second Quarter

2

District 11, we're here. I'd never been to any of the other districts except district 12, but once my school took a field trip to the left overs of district 13 when we were studying The history of Panem. We would get there the same day we left and be interviewed then the next day we would talk in front of everyone.

"Elsa, make sure you look your best." Effie says applying make up. I rolled my eyes.

"Yes mom." I replied heading to the large mirror. I still looked the same, same brown hair, same blue eyes, same outfit, same everything. I stepped back from the mirror and straightened my skirt up. "Does this look okay Effie?" I ask. She looks up from her small make up mirror.

"Yes." She replys but then walks up to me and messes with my hair. "There. Run along." I walked off with a wierd look on my face, what the hell?

"Hey, Elsa have you seen Haymitch?" Peeta asks me.

"No, I was wondering the same thing." I reply.

"Katniss is looking but we should look in other carts." He suggests.

"Yeah, come on." I say pressing a button which opens a door into another cart. We looked under the seats and in cupboards but to no success in this cart.

"Do you think they're going to put a twist on this Hunger Games?" I ask.

"Probably. " He replies. "Dont they always every 25th Hunger Games?"

"Yeah, I just hope I dont go back in there." I reply. "Peeta, I killed a lot of people."

"So did I, I never thought I would kill anyone but I did." He replies.

"I vowed not to kill anyone, but I didn't honor it." I say.

"Kill or be Killed." He smiles.

"Ms. Everdeen." Haymitch smirks stumbling in.

"Haymitch?" I ask. "Why are you here!"

"I'm your mentor." He coughs.

"Your drunk." I reply.

"Psh no." He chuckles and pulls me away from Peeta. "I am." He smelt of alcohol.

"Come Haymitch, we got to put you to bed." Peeta smiled. "I'll meet you guys at the interview." I nodded and walked into the main cart. Where Katniss paced around.

"We found Haymitch." I say skipping as I walked.

"How many times was your name entered?" She blurts.

I look at her shocked. My name was entered more then once even though it didn't need to be I had food, clean water, nice beds, everything anyone in District 12 would die to provide for their family's. She peers at me.

"M-more than thirty." I manage to stutter.

"Knew it, there are riots starting because of that." Katniss informs me. "Why would you do that? You don't need tesserae."

"I-i don't know." I reply. "I was being stupid."

"That stupidy is leading to riots in different districts. Because of everything you and Gale did in the games." Katniss says pulling on the roots of her hair. "They are planning on putting a huge amount of discipline on the districts, especially district 12."

"I doubt they'd actually do it, Snow is a nice guy.. right? I mean he let both me and gale live" I asked.

Katniss shakes her head. "The reason why Snow let you and Gale live is because Peeta and I told him we'd do a huge favor, which we still don't know."

"I'm sorry." I whisper.

"It's fine, i'm sure they won't do it anyways." Katniss says. "We should go though."

I followed her out of the train into district 11. It was bigger then home but not by much. I waved at the people slightly when they waved at me.

"Manners." Effie growled at me when we caught up with Gale and her.

"Whats up her tou-tou? " I whispered to Gale.

He shrugged. "I don't know."

"The interview is in 4 minutes, get ready." A tall man said to us. I nodded quickly.
