Katniss went to where the careers were at.Rue set the distraction and Katniss went into action. She was going to hit the bag of apples with her arrow and blow the mines that were inhumed and will blow up all the ir food. So she waited until Rue started and when they left she shot her arrow and blew up everything. When the food blew up Katniss was blown back and hit the ground. When she got up she realized that she couldnt hear out of her left ear. But eventually she got up and sent the target to tell Rue that she was alright. As she ran through the forest she never heard the signal back and so she started to panic.Then finally after all the searching she heard the signal from Rue that meant she was alright. So she followed the sound of the signals. Then all of a sudden she heard a frightening scream. It was a child scream and she knew it came from Rue. So she yelled her name until she responded. Then Rue yelled Katniss name and so eventually she found Rue. She found her trapped in a net. But when she grabbed Rue out of the net and hugged her, a fellow tribute had set up this trap.

So Katniss arranged flowers all around Rues body because she knew that all the cameras were on her. After she got up she put up 3 fingers which meant that a loved one would be missed.So she left and sat down and cried. Then she climbed up in a tree then she heard an resolution from the game makers. They said there were changes in the ruling of the games. They said there can be two victors of the games if they were from the same district. Katniss took a minute to take the news in and without thinking she started yelling Peetas name. When she realized what she did she put her hands over her mouth. But still in excitement she started to climb down the tree but decided to wait till morning. The next day she started the search for Peeta.She started looking for him and while looking she saw something. She saw some blood and followed the trail. Eventually she made it to the lake and as she was stepping toward the water she heard a voice. It was Peetas voice. She looked down and saw nothing but then Peeta smiled and she saw that he had made a camouflage to blend into the bolder. So she got up cleaned him up and started looking at his wound. He had a deep cut in his upper left leg. She realizes how sick he was when he tells her that he hasnt been hungry for days so she gets him to eat some dried apples then decides to clean her wound.She takes off his shoes, socks, and pants and sees how bad it is. The cut is oozing both blood and pus also his leg is swollen. So she pours water over the cut but it begins to look even worse so she makes him eat some dry fruit and she goes and washes the rest of his clothes. Then she chews up some leaves that gets rid of infections and puts them on his cut and the pus begins to drain out of his leg and she think thats good. After she cleaned his clothes and lets him rest for a while they looked for a new place to rest. So they find a sabotage like structure to settle in.She kisses him then goes outside and sees that Haymitch left some broth. Then she practically kisses him awake then gives him the broth that Haymitch sent him. After she makes him drink the broth they go to sleep. That morning she gets up and gets some berries and when she returns he was up and was about to go looking for her. She sat him down and federal official him the berries then he told her she needed to rest so he made her sleep. When she woke up she realized how long she slept but it didnt matter so she tended to his minor wounds then his cut.When she looked at it her heart dropped. The pus was gone but the swelling had increased, his skin was ti ght and there were red streaks crawling up his leg. He had blood poisoning. He realizes it to but she doesnt want to talk about. She makes him some soup but he doesnt want any although he does want to hear a story. So she tells him the time on how she got her little sister Prims goat. Then theres another announcement. in that location was going to be a feast which means each tribute needs something so they are going to leave it in the middle of the arena tomorrow.Katniss lies and says she wasnt going but he knew she was and that if she goes he will go too. Then she says ok and goes to clean herself up then sees the haunt Haymitch sent her. She got excited but then saw it wasnt his medicine but a small bottle of sleeping syrup. So she heterogeneous it up with some berries to feed to him. As he was eating it he thought they were really sweet then realized what was in the berries but it was too late. He already started losing consciousness. And even when he was going down Katniss co uld tell by the look on his face she had done something unforgiveable.She gathered her things and went to go get the medicine. When she got there she observed the area for a while. Then the girl from district 5 ran out got her bag and left. So Katniss went to get her bag but cleave came hit her with a knife and pinned her to the ground. She told Katniss that they had plan to kill Rue. Then Thresh the other tribute from Rues district came and grabbed Clove and started yelling saying did you kill her. Clove yelled Catos name and he yelled her name back but Thresh already started beating her heard with a stone until her heard was dented.He looks at Katniss and said Ill let you go this time for Rue. Katniss ran back to the cave, gave Peeta the shot, and then passed out. When she regained consciousness Peeta is looking at her in relief. They ate the rest of the food, laid down, and began to talk. Katniss act him when did he start liking her. He told her the whole story on how he first saw her when she was 5 and how she sang in music class and from then on he watched her walk home every single day. Then right when they were about to kiss a sound scares then. Peeta goes outside and Haymitch sent them a feast to eat.After they eat and talk a little more Peeta tells Katniss that Thresh is dead. After Peeta comforts Katniss and they go to sleep, the next day they went pursuit and gathering. Before Katniss leaves Peeta she tells him to look for roots and berries. When she was hunting she went back looking for Peeta and saw the apple and cheese was gone. When she found him she started yelling at him for eating the food and he said he didnt do it and that the berries he found were toxic. Then the cannon went off and then they saw the girl from district 5s body then realized that she ate the poisonous berries and the food.After talking for a little bit they realize that fox faces death wasnt a good thing. promptly that Cato knows shes dead he will come looking for them. So they decide to look for another form of shelter. So they get their stuff and look for a place but then they just go to the cave. But they sit in the open waiting for Cato and when they see him he is running toward then with some type of armor but his stop number doesnt slow down and as he passes them Katniss notices the creature he is running from and their about a half a dozen more. So Katniss takes off with intentions of only saving herselfAs Katniss is running she turns around remembering that she left Peeta with his bad leg. So she grabs him and follows Cato to the Cornucopia. They climb to the top and then Cato tells them that the creatures can climb. When Katniss looked down at the mutts and recognized the features on it. It had blonde hair, green eyes, and the number 1 on its collar. Then Katniss realized that its Glimmer. She starts looking at all the other mutts and notices all of them were the tributes that died. She even notices the smallest on. It had curly embrown and big brown eyes. She knew it was Rue.When she pulled Peeta up Cato grabbed him and Katniss aimed his arrow at him but he said if she shoots him Peeta will die with him. But Katniss shoots his hand but she grabs Peeta before he could fall. Cato fall into the pack of mutts and because of the armor it was taking a long time and he was suffering so Katniss shot an arrow at his head. Then the mutts ran off. They were blessed and relieved until an announcement was made. They said that the rules had changed back to normal and that there can be only one victor. Peeta said he should be the one to die but Katniss had an idea.She pulled out the night lock she had saved and said they will both die and they counted to three and just as they raised the night lock to their lips the announcer said stop and announced that they were the Seventy-fourth annual Hunger Games victors. As they went up into the hovercraft Katniss would not let go of Peeta, but when there on board Peeta falls to the gro und unconscious. They took him to a table and started working on his leg. They place Katniss behind a door where she yells until they land and they jab a needle in her. When she wakes up, she finds herself in a room with no windows or doors are visible.Then she notices that she can hear out of her left ear again and all her wounds and scars are gone. After they let her out she finds out that Peeta is fine and there is going to be a last interview. So she goes with Cinna to get ready. He puts her in a yellow dress with flats and a head band to go for a more aboveboard look. When she meets Haymitch he tells her the capitol is risky because she showed them up in the arena. And she is to say that she was so diabolically in love that wasnt in control of her actions. She said ok and got into her position.When she got on stage she saw Peeta and ran into his arms and they started kissing. And finally Caesar told them they had to start the show. And after the interview President Snow came out with a metal for each of them. Even though he had a smile on his face his eyes were filled with unforgiving rage. And the next day they had another interview. And they showed the clips of when Peeta and Katniss were in the cave and everything. And then Katniss found out that Peeta had to get a new artificial leg. She freaked out and started saying it was her fault. After the interview they took a walk along the train.When Haymitch told them keep up the good work Peeta didnt know what he meant. So Katniss told him that Haymitch had told her to act like she was in love him. Peeta was furious and stormed back to the train. But right before they stopped in district 12 he told her one more time for the cameras. His voice wasnt angry but it was hollow. So Katniss grabbed his hand tightly dreading the time she would have to let go. The End 1. I loved the novel because it was evoke, suspenseful, and this book makes you about the future. 2.
