Remember that even in war there is a time for restraint. A time to hold back your sword.

What do I mean when I say I love Gale? I don't know. I did kiss him last night, in a moment when my emotions were running so high. But I'm sure he doesn't remember it. Does he? I hope not. If he does, everything will just get more complicated and I really can't think about kissing when I've got a rebellion to incite.

My name is Katniss Everdeen. Why am I not dead? I should be dead.
Suzanne Collins
Image
My name is Katniss Everdeen. I am seventeen years old. My home is District 12. I was in the Hunger Games. I escaped. The Capitol hates me.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Katniss, there is no District Twelve.
Suzanne Collins
Image
We could do it, you know. What? Leave the district. Run off. Live in the woods. You and I, we could make it.
Suzanne Collins
Image
Whose is it, do you think? I say finally. No telling, says Finnick. Why don't we let Peeta claim it, since he died today?

As the alcohol overcomes my mind, I hear the glass bottle shatter on the floor. This seems appropriate since I have obviously lost my grip on everything.

He felt around desperately for a weapon. What did he have? Diapers? Cookies? Oh, why hadn't they given him a sword? He was the stupid warrior, wasn't he? His fingers dug in the leather bag and closed around the root beer can. Root beer! He yanked out the can shaking it with all his might. Attack! Attack! he yelled.

In that one slight motion, I see the end of hope, beginning of destruction of everything I hold dear in the world.
