Chapter Ten

THE CAPITOL

When we get off the train we are greeted by many of the colorful people. They kiss our cheeks, shake our hands, and try to chat with us as we walk.

I start to feel Katniss shaking so I squeeze her hand that I was holding to give her reassurance. When we finally get to the armored truck we get in and Katniss collapses right beside me. "I hate that." She mumbles and I kiss her four head.

"I know you do." That's all I say. The truck first stop is at this large building and we get out and walk in. What we see, is horrifying to us.

Everything from our games, the jacket, the wet suite, a few stuffed mutations, a spiel, the parachutes, and then statues of all the fallen tributes. I walk over to Marvel's, who was Katniss's first kill and she follows, with all the color drained from her face.

She runs her hand over his plaque and let's a tear roll down her cheek. "I'm so sorry." She says and then when we look up we see a statue of Rue. Katniss covers her mouth, choking the sobs that were about to escape her.

I wrap my arms around her and hold her for quite some time. We hear a sniffle behind us and we turn. We see a man with spiked up blond hair an wearing leopard printed jacket, shirt, pants, and his shoes. He has a camera around his neck and shakes my hand. "I'm Gisin! I'm the photographer for the magazine ADL... And Katniss today you are my model!" He says with a grin. Katniss glares at him.

"Why the hell did you bring us here?" "To get your emotions flowing darling! I wanted to see you in your weakest state!" She walks over to him and slaps him across the face. He stands there a little dazed but he chuckles. "I deserved that." He says and Katniss puts her hands in her coat pocket.

"You wanna go for round two?" She asks and he claps once. Katniss's prep team rush in and grab her arms. "Sweetheart you need to relax, he just wanted to see emotion okay?" She relaxes and sighs. "Alright, take me to your photo shoot thing." He smiles and they start dragging her away from me but she grabs onto my hand.

"Peeta comes..." She says and Gisin nods. "Whatever makes you happy darling." About thirty minutes later we're in a white room and Katniss has black slacks on and no bra or shirt, showing off every little scar there is. Her arms are over her breasts and she looks at me with a frown.

I walk over to her and kiss her lips genty. "You're fine, just pretend it's just me watching you okay?" Gisin smiles. "Now this issue will be titled, "Scars of the Rebellion." Alright, now I want to see you broken, into a million pieces." I see Katniss starting to have a attack and I tense, because these can get very real, very quickly.

She falls to her knees, still covering herself and she bursts into sobs. He snaps a picture. "Beautiful! Now I want one with you looking into the camera. Her hair is down and is flowing down her back. She glares into the camera and takes the picture.

"Lovely!" Effie is now there clapping as she sees this with her prep team being proud of themselves with her makeup. After a hour more of pictures and flashes she is finished with the last picture, her back to the camera, showing her scars. He smiles. "That's a wrap! Good job Katniss! They were beautiful!" Instantly after they put Katniss in a bra she runs over to me and wraps her arms around my neck sobbing.

"Don't make me ever do that again, please." She sobs, I shake my head and kiss her lips. "Never again." I say against them and this will be the last time I ever come to the Capitol.

THE INTERVIEW

Effie fixes my hair and Katniss's black dress that goes to the floor. "You both look lovely, stand up straight, be yourselves... Well Katniss be your happier self. Chins up smiles on! You're going to be on camera, in three, two, one!" I take Katniss's arm and look down at her.

Her hair down, her eye makeup looks like glowing embers, making her grey eyes shine. "You ready?" She nods slightly as she moves her long train. "Ladies and gentlemen, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark!" We walk out into the dazzling lights and the roaring crowd.

Katniss and I grin and wave until Cesar wraps a arm around us. "My goodness! I haven't seen you two in ages! Look how beautiful you are Katniss!" She laughs, kissing Cesar's cheek. "Why thank you Cesar, I don't feel like it though."

"I think you look beautiful Katniss, everyday." I say and everyone claps. "I agree, with Peeta." Cesar says showing off his white grin against his tan skin. "And look at you Peeta! What have you grown like a foot? My god!" He says laughing and I laugh. "I have grown but I can't tell you how much." He chuckles as his yellow hair shins in the light.

"So, are you guys planning on getting married anytime soon?" Katniss shakes her head. "No Cesar, I think Peeta and I need some time to get to know each other again... And have alone time for a while." I nod and then Cesar smiles.

"Well Katniss we wanted to show you how beautiful you are." Everyone screams with excitement. We both look up and see her photos. Everyone gasps and then goes silent.

Every scar shows the pain and agony that she has gone through. Cesar let's a frown creep on his face. "Absolutely stunning..." He murmurs. "It shows how strong she is." I say and Cesar nods. "It certainly does Peeta." Then hugs her and shakes my hand.

"It was great seeing you two and we hope to see you again, married... And maybe with a baby on the way!" He says and Katniss laughs. "I don't know Cesar it'll take a lot of persuading." I kiss her gently. "I am very good at persuading."

Everyone laughs once again and then Cesar grins. "Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen! Let's give them a hand!" They give us a standing ovation with tears rolling down their cheeks, do they feel bad, for us?
