Finally, I am safe home. It is late at night and the helicopter ride took at least a few hours. I open the door and Mr. Davenport rushes towards me and embraces me in a hug. I basically cried the entire helicopter ride and I still am.

" Bree, so glad you're alright! " Tasha hugs me after Mr. Davenport. Leo and Adam joins in and I continue sobbing.
Chase comes from the lab and when he sees me, his eyes are filled with sadness. I walk over to him and he brings me into his arms.

" Bree, what happened?! " Chase rubs my back when I sob on his shoulder. I am so scared I can't even speak right now.

" Can you guys all stay with me tonight. Like we all sleep here in the living room. " I finally say, looking at everyone. They all nod and I give a small smile. " I'll fill you guys in later. "

During the night, I explained about what happened in the Capitol. Leo informed me that Kyle and Sierra are hospitalized. I was able to sleep through the night, trying to shut out the nightmares.

In the morning, everyone wasn't in the mood of talking. Not even Eddy annoyed us with an insult. I can't go to school anymore because the school is afraid of another thing like what happened to occur again. That made me really mad.

" Can I go visit Sierra and Kyle at the hospital? " I ask Mr. Davenport.

" Of course you can. Chase, Adam, and I are coming with you. " He answers. I know I need my protection so I don't argue. Leo heads to school and Tasha goes to work.

At the hospital, Kyle and Sierra are sharing the same hospital room to their requests. The nurse said that only two can see the patients so me and Chase go in, with flowers and balloons. Sierra notices us and wakes Kyle up by saying his name.

" Bree, it's good to see you're okay. " Sierra says hoarsely. Chase places our flowers in an empty case and ties balloons on Sierra and Kyle's beds.

" Did you see what President Snow talked to me about in your vision? " I ask, sitting by her bedside. She nods and holds my hand. She has a broken leg and bruises on her arms. James has scars on his face and his arm is broken. They were beaten up bad.

" I'm sorry that this happened to you two. What I did in the Games caused President Snow to have it out for me. "

" Bree, you did what you had to do to save me. We'll make Snow believe that we side with the Capitol. " Chase puts his hand on my shoulder.

" We know it is hard for you to act like you agree that the Capitol is so awesome sauce. But, you need to do show that bastard so no one else gets hurt. " Kyle says. He is right. No one deserves to get hurt because of me. Interrupting us, the nurse orders me and Chase to leave. I refuse to leave my friends.

" Go on, Bree. We'll be good as new soon. " Sierra waves at us and we walk out the hospital room. Chase holds my hand and I place my head on his shoulder.

" Everything will be okay, Bree. Things take time. " He always know what to say. I face him and pull him into a kiss.

" How you holding up? " Adelaide asks. I am video chatting Adelaide and Elliot on the TV and my arms are crossed as I walk around the living room. They both are currently in London for some special event.

" I'm fine but my friends aren't. I can't go to school, I was told Sierra and James are gonna be in their state for a few months, and President Snow wants Chase and I to prove ourselves as lovers not rebels. "

" President Snow can jump off a goddamn cliff and die with his big ass head busted open! " Elliot yells, taking a huge gulp of his wine. I couldn't agree less.

" I will start preparing yours and Chase's speeches for the tour. It will state that you and Chase really care about Panem and stand by the Capitol. " Adelaide answers. Giving my goodbye, I disconnect the chat and fall on the couch, looking up at the ceiling. Bad things happen to good people. If not, good luck trying to prove me wrong because innocent people went through hell. Like Sierra and James. Don't get me started on my old allies and deceased tributes from last year's games Ivan and Quinn.

Come the victory tour and I must lie to people who think of me as a true rebel. They gonna think I am another Capitol poster child.
