Chapter 27

Please, Kat and Peeta... make this work. At least one more time, Kat.

That was a smart arrangement of weeks... especially for their purposes. Hopefully, things will continue to go smoothly...

Locked in her room? Doesn't that seem kind of like childish punishment to you? I would be frightened, too. I can't imagine having to monitor and think of the consequences of every little thing I say. It's too much pressure for me. I would surely screw up.

Good move, Kat! nice! Keep going...

Peeta! No! Your leg! No! It must have been the tourniquet... I hope Katniss doesn't feel that it's her fault. With out her, he would have died long before.

Oh, honey. I know she loves Gale, but please don't hurt Peeta... I love him, too. Oh Peeta. Don't be like that. Angry or sad, not hollow. Please...

NO!! I HATE THIS BOOK! HOW COULD YOU LEAVE ME HANGING LIKE THAT????? Grr...

Chapter 26

Peeta! Please! Don't die now! You've won! It's not fair for you to die!

Thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Where is Katniss, though? What is going on?

Heh, she knew Haymitch too well. She knew exactly what his gifts meant. I can't wait to see what they will be wearing for the reunion :)

Oh! How sweet! I would love to have an outfit like that! What is the trouble, though? What could be so bad outside the arena?

Oooohh... Hmm.. Yes, that could definitely cause a problem. And Kat still doesn't realize the truth in his love?? Sigh, she can be so naive. I hope everything works out :-/

Chapter 25

Goodness! Wolf-like creatures? What sick mind...? Ugh.

Glimmer??? And the others are... All the tributes?? No! It can't be! Not Rue!

LET GO OF PEETA!!! He's going to suffocate! No! Not after all this. Kat, you have to figure something out!! Good, his hand; save Peeta now.

Why isn't he dying? Why does the Capitol have to be so cruel? Call off the dogs and let Cato's end come to him! All that suffering, even for someone like Cato, it's not fun or entertaining in any way whatsoever. Moaning in excruciating pain, on the verge of death, wanting death over that suffering. It's unimaginable.

How could they do that??!!??? They can't just change the rules at the very last second! Oh, Katniss! Please, outsmart the Capitol again! YES! Perfect! Now, you just need to get back quick enought to fix you up, and go home. Please Peeta and Kat, I know you can make it!

Chapter 24

Well, unintentional or not, there's only the three of them left. Cato is hard to predict, and I'm not sure how things will go from here. He could attack them at any second in their little den. Or he could be completely oblivious to their location. I have no idea how his strategy works. I hope it ends today, as Kat senses. I'm sick of the disturbed idea of fun and entertainment the Capitol holds.

Oh geez, another one of the Gamemaker's ploys. What kind of creature are they running from? It must be terrifying for Cato to run right past Peeta and Kat without a second glance. I'm again worried about their safety.

Chapter 23

Peeta; such a flirt. :) He's a fun character. I can just imagine Haymitch and Katniss trying to be neighborly every day. Ha ha! Kat is right, Peeta wouldn't understand the significance tied to the gifts. I can't even think about having to help someone train then watch them die year after year. No wonder Haymitch became a drunk.

Oh, Thresh. Capable of such kindness, yet plauged with the same fate as the others. I can't seem to believe that he's gone, too. It's not right in any way. Poor Thresh.

Why do the Gamemekares feel it necissary to alter the naturally occuring patterns? Why would they need to put up a different moon? Why did they want to make it pour like that? It seems random and purposeless to me.

Why can't Katniss see that Peeta is not making up his love??? It's so obvious! How he's so happy when he looks at her, how it "seems so natural" for him... It's because he's NOT PRETENDING!! Katniss loves Gale, though, so this will NOT work out. She's going to have to choose in the end. Peeta cooks, Gale hunts. Peeta is loud when he walks, Gale doesn't make a sound. Who do you think she will pick?

Good; she got some meat for them. They'll need more if they stay in the Games much longer. Gasp! Foxface! That sly little stealer... I guess that teaches us all a lesson. I never thought it would have been the death of her. Those are some bad berries.

Chapter 22

It's raining for the first time in the whole Games. Maybe the streams running more will discourage any unwanted visitors from Kat and Peeta's haven. I sure hope so. Oh, I'm so glad Peeta is doing better, even though I'm sad and worried about Kat's injury. Hopefully she will be well enough to hunt soon so they don't starve. I'm so glad one of them is well enough to take care of the other.

I am so sick of these Games, as I'm sure Katniss and Peeta are. The fact that one would need to think of snakes, quicksand, or rabid animals set up by, not nature, but human force is deeply disturbing. I wish it was all over and they were back at home with their families.
I think it's sweet how Peeta can make Katniss feel so safe in his arms. I'm glad they have each other for warmth and just to be with. I would have been so terribly lonely out on my own.

It's so smart of Katniss to figure Haymitch out like that. I'm glad they're so alike that they can understand each other. I can't believe Peeta remembered so much about Kat over the years. Peeta really does love Katniss. She's simply oblivious to the fact. I'm glad Haymitch is pushing tham together, even if she thinks it an act for the sponsors. This can't end well, though. Ugh.

Chapter 21

Be careful, Catnip. Those Careers are still dangerous, and I don't want to see you get hurt again.

That sly little foxface! Again, tricking her competitors!

Katniss! No! Clove needs to get off of you! You have the medicine, get it to Peeta!!

Thresh! Thank you!! Oh, maybe there's hope for her to get to Peeta now! Thank you, Thresh, for that moment of kindness!

Oh, please work, medicine. Let Peeta live, Collins. Please? Peeta? Katniss? She's losing blood quickly... please...
