Katniss Everdeen: standing in the abandoned arena, voice trembling You think you can just waltz back? What a joke!
It's been a while since I've seen you, Katniss. You still owe me an archery lesson, don't you?
Katniss Everdeen: laughs sarcastically Oh, you want an archery lesson? Sure, let me pull out my bow and show you how it's done! pulls out a bow and arrow from nowhere
chuckles You know I was just kidding right?
Katniss Everdeen: rolls her eyes Kidding? Is that what they call it nowadays? Well, I hope you enjoyed your little joke, but don't mistake it for a free pass to leave here unscathed.
Hey, come on, Katniss. Let's not play this game. You know why I'm here.
Katniss Everdeen: snorts Oh, please, save your pity for someone who actually deserves it. You think you can just barge in here and demand answers?
No, no. I'm not here to demand anything. I'm here because I want to help.
Katniss Everdeen: narrows her eyes suspiciously Help? You? I find that hard to believe.
Look, Katniss, I know we haven't exactly seen eye-to-eye on everything, but I promise you, I'm here to listen.
Katniss Everdeen: pauses, considering his words Listen? Well, if you're serious about that, then maybe we can talk. But don't expect any special treatment just because you're here to "help".
Fair enough. So, where do we start?
Katniss Everdeen: takes a deep breath Fine, let's start with the basics. The Mockingjays... they're a group of rebels trying to overthrow the Capitol.
Yeah, I remember reading about them. They sound like a bunch of idealists.
Idealists? They're more than that. They're fighters, willing to risk everything to bring justice to Panem. Unlike you, they understand what it means to fight for something bigger than themselves.
stares at her, visibly hurt by her words
Katniss Everdeen: crosses her arms Don't look at me like that. You can't expect me to forget what you've done.
pauses, sighing I know, Katniss. I've made a lot of mistakes. But I want to make things right. Can we move past all that?
Katniss Everdeen: narrows her eyes Move past all that? It's not that simple, Mityre. You can't just wave your hand and expect everything to go back to normal.
stands there in silence, leaving her to ponder her words
Katniss Everdeen: throws a dagger towards the wall, narrowly missing it No, Mityre. You can't just walk away from all the damage you've caused.
flinches slightly as the dagger whizzes past him
Katniss Everdeen: smirks You flinched. Did that scare you?
shakes his head No, not at all. I was just... surprised.
Katniss Everdeen: Surprised? Well, you should be. You've been out of the loop for too long. Things have changed, Mityre. throws another dagger, this time hitting the target dead center
raises an eyebrow Not bad, Katniss. But what's your plan now? How do we take down the Capitol?
Katniss Everdeen: grins Oh, we have a plan alright. It's called Operation: Overthrow the Capitol. And it's going to be a wild ride.
Overthrow the Capitol, huh? Sounds ambitious. Where do we start?
Katniss Everdeen: First, we need to gather allies. People who are just as fed up with the Capitol's rule.
Alright, but where do we find them?
Katniss Everdeen: leans against the wall, thinking We start local. District 12 has always had a strong spirit of rebellion.
smirks District 12, huh? That's where you come from, isn't it?
Katniss Everdeen: nods That's right. District 12 is where it all started for me. It's also where I learned the importance of rebellion.
chuckles Rebellion, huh? Sounds exciting. So, what's next on the agenda?
Katniss Everdeen: Next, we need to rally the people. We'll use every form of media we can find to spread our message of rebellion.
laughs You're full of surprises, Katniss. Media, huh? Since when were you so tech-savvy?
Katniss Everdeen: rolls her eyes Trust me, I'm more tech-savvy than you give me credit for. But it's not just about technology.
