As the Breen family walked into their huge house, they all went ways Their mother to her room, Their father to his office, and Her brother to his room, Priscilla then we to i to the kitchen, she looked into her book of lists of foods she should make, she decided to make some cinnamon rolls along with cut up fruit, as she packed her food she walked out of the house, making her way to the zoo

As she made it to the zoo they waved at here away instructing there were no visitors allowed, she pulled out her mentor card, as well as her last name, they made an exception, only for a short amount of time

As they walked to the monkey cage Priscilla gasped as one of the rats ran just an inch from her to the other side, she saw dozens of rats darting about, trying to get leftovers, from bits of rotting food, several raccoons were there, one chewing on a dead rat, she then saw small white powder under boulders or against the walls

"Is that rat poison?" She asked, she knew the peacekeeper walking her, he was only two years older then her, she never remembered his name thought

"Yeah, some new stuff they're trying out today, but the rats are so smart, they won't go near it" He said shrugging "It's what they gave us to work with"

As they made it to the cage she saw the tributes shacked again just like how they were day one, pressed against the back walls or behind a rock

"Keep your distance" the peacekeeper told her "Your boy may snap, they can't touch you" Priscilla nodded, she then approached the cage, Treech spotted her, he looked so exhausted, as he rose he was unsteady, as he came closer she saw a bruise on his cheek, but that didn't stop the boy from walking towards the bars to the girl, even if dragging the chains

The girl wasn't aware that the reason he was like that was because, he hadn't had anything since Arachne death, as the next day the food he had ate, he threw it up as he watched the raccoon grab the rat and eat him slowly

"Priscilla, your okay right?" He asked worried about the girl

"I should be asking you that treech" she said the girl looked at the boy guilty she couldn't help, she turned to see the peacekeeper paying attention to the other peacekeeper beside him keeping a conversation before cupping his face touching the bruise

"Some peacekeeper left it, he dragged lamina, and threw her onto the truck, i yelled at him he didn't seem to like that and left me this, he's lucky i have no energy and my hands are chained up, or he would've  been way worse" Treech said, The girl nodded, she then took the food out of her bag

The boy opened the small place trey and ate the four cinnamon rolls fast, he then opened the fruits and started eating them, Priscilla just started at him, before grabbing his free hand rubbing it, the gesture made the boy blush, as he finished he drank the water the girl left

"Thank you cilla" He said, the girl nodded as she took the trash and placed it in a plastic bag before taking out another fruit trey, he knew it was for lamina

"Your voice is beautiful," He spoke, the girl looked at him, redness took over her cheeks

"Thank you" she said as she was grabbing his hand, she heard the peacekeeper shout

"Hey!" he shouted, they both quickly retracted their hands back

"I should get going, i wanted to talk to you i really did, but it's quite impossible with these peacekeepers," She said the boy slowly nodded, she just came and she's already leaving but he understood the reason, "I'll see you tomorrow we have to see the arena together to make strategies" She spoke, as stood up along with the boy

"Bye then to the beautiful capital lady" He said with a smile, the girl smiled in return

"Bye treech" she said, As the peacekeeper then escorted her out
