She holds up the spear, sprinting towards me. I run as fast as I can without turningbut she is on my heels. I turn. She freezes. I don't blame her. I just turned into a wolf right in front of her. I gallop through the woods, shaking with fear. I curl up in a cave and turn back. Tears stream down my face. Now everyone knows. I drift in and out of consciousness. Each time, I have a different nightmare. I'm back on the Capitol ship. Handcuffed and blindfolded. They are screaming "What are you?" This time when I awake I'm laying in the trunk of a car with two people standing over me. "She's not either of the ones we are looking for. I think she just came here." A smooth female voice says. "How did you get her?" A male voice says. "She was passed out, half turned when I found her." The female voice again. My vision fades to black. I'm climbing over the fence in district twelve. I set off north. When I wake up this time I'm chained to a wall, a bright light shining on my eyes.
