fourteen
Cato, myself, Halozay, Dres, and about fifty PeaceKeepers are are on the way to District Two via train. The RSR heard reports of potential bombings there. So McClaire has ordered RSR to evacuate all PeaceKeepers and if possible, all citizens loyal to the Capital. Its been two days since I heard the conversation in Danielle's room. I haven't told Cato yet. So far, she hasn't done anything but I'm still alert. How could she turn against me like that? The unknown figure who was there with her that day must have brainwashed her or something. I heard a rumor a year or so ago that she had gone crazy, but she didn't act like it. Still. Why did she act like that? Did she mean everything she said? The whole thing is just plain confusing.
Anila and the twins are still in the Capital. We decided it was safer if they stayed instead of returning back to the District. Cato and I had a long argument about whether or not I was going to be allowed off the train because of my condition. I remained stubbornly firm, instisting that even if Cato locked me up here, I would find a way out and join them. And he knows I can do it. So he agreed to let me come on the conditions that I obey him at all times, even if its something I would never do otherwise, and take it easy. Those are both easy to follow.
Our group in this train car has already been debriefed. I turn away from the window I had ben staring out of as a noise distracts me. I had heard a small sneeze from behind some weapon crates to my right. I walk over to them. To my shocked astonishment, there sits my son, Chase. He grins cheekily. "I'm riding train mommy!" My jaw drops. Oh no. What am I going to do about him?!
"Cato!" I call out. He makes his way over to me saying, "Yea Clover? What is..." His voice trails off as he sees Chase sitting there, grinning innocently up at the both of us. "Oh." Cato says quietly. I turn to my husband, worry filling my voice. "Cato, what are we going to do? We can't just leave him here by him self with all of these weapons and explosives..." I guesture to the crates around me. Cato is silent, he's thinking. "Yea. He's not staying by himself, for sure. Well. I guess we could take him with us. We'd just have to hold him the entire time." Its still not the safest choice. We're about five minutes from District Two, so we can't turn back now. I'm not happy with the situation but what else can we do except things go off without a hitch
