Summary
[Sona, our escort, welcomes us to the 69th hunger games. I hate her, now more than ever. She wears a different dress than the one she wore to the 65th, but the shade of blue is still the same. The same blue she wore when she called my sister's name. Pain washes over my body as I think back to that moment. I was twelve, I was eligible. I should have volunteered when Cornelia's name was called. Sure, a twelve year old girl stands far less of a chance of surviving than a fifteen year old. But what did age get my sister? The man she lost to was fourteen anyways. I look up to stare at his face, he sits on the stage so casually, as if he had not a care in the world. The pain in my skin turns to anger and I feel my breath shorten. It should have been my sister that won, not him. She stood a chance, a real chance. She too was from district four, she had his same skill set, but it was his face - his annoyingly perfect face - that was the cause of his victory.
I hate him. He didn't directly kill my sister, but that didn't matter.
I hate Finnick Odair.]When entering the games, her mentor is the man she hates, the man she swore to despise. Unbeknownst to her, he is also the man determined to protect her no matter what.
