"I was frustrated. I threw a knife at the wall."
Jay, Tabbie, and Maggie, my mentor-everybody calls her Mags-, all ate in the dining 舱, 小木屋 ages ago, but I requested 晚餐 alone in my room. I need time to think and plan strategy. My 晚餐 lies cold and untouched on 最佳, 返回页首 of my dresser, the only other piece of furniture in my dismal little train 舱, 小木屋 besides my bed. I only have about seven days to prepare my strategy, and possibly even to live, and the only thing I can think of is how confident 松鸦, 杰伊, 杰伊 · looked when he ascended the platform and sat 下一个 to me.
I'll have to kill him. I will have to kill. Throwing a 刀 and stabbing a target is different thin than killing a human being. I'm worried that I will be incapable of murder when I'm in the arena. In frustration, I grab the 刀 off my 晚餐 tray and hurl it at the light socket with all my might. It lands squarely in one of the little plug-holes. All of the sudden the lights flicker, and go out. Crap, blew a fuse. Tabbie'll be FURIOUS. As if on cue, there's a loud and capitol-esque voice piped through the intercom system. "ARIELLE. GET UP TO THE DINING CAR. NOW." I assumed that they had security cameras here, but I never knew that Tabbie had access to stalking me. Ugh. Capitol people.
I don't move. I don't owe the Capitol anything. They're going to use my death to satisfy their sadistic bloodlust, and even if I live, I'll be what? A broken shell of a human being. Even if being to Tabbie is my last act of defiance before I go into the Arena, where I'll have to be a total suck up in order to get the 赞助商 I need to win.
She flings my room door open, her 粉, 粉色 hair standing on end and her eyebrows knitted together in a freakishly 粉, 粉色 knot over her eyes.
"WHAT. DID. YOU. DO?"
Obviously, 你 already know. Stalker.
"I was frustrated. I threw a 刀 at the wall. Blew a fuse."
"WHY-" "Just leave me alone."
She utters something halfway between a sigh and a grunt, and leaves me alone to sulk.
