The World Is Watching: Making the Hunger Games Page #4

---

You don't talk to me and you

say you have a crush on me?

You say you wanna train alone...

is that how you wanna play?

Stop! Stop it!

Start right now.

He did you a favor.

He made me look weak.

He made you look desirable.

Which in your case,

can't hurt sweetheart!

He's right Katniss.

Of course, I'm right.

Now I can sell the star cross

lovers from District 12.

We are not star cross lovers.

It's a television show.

And being in love with

that boy might just get

you Sponsors which could

save your damn life.

Okay...

why don't you get out of here?

Maybe acting to live save you

both to one piece tomorrow.

Manners.

You too?

Oh, hey.

Can't sleep?

No, of course not.

I'm sorry I went after you.

You know I meant that

as a compliment.

I know.

Listen...

Yeah?

I just don't wanna change me.

How did they change you?

I don't know.

I'm turning to something I'm not.

I just don't wanna be another

piece in their game, you know?

You mean you won't kill anyone?

No.

I'm not yet sure I would.

Just like any by off

my time came with.

Yeah, I just keep...

wishing I could think

of a way to show them.

That they don't own me.

You know, if I'm gonna die.

I wanna still be me.

Does that make any sense?

Yeah.

I just can't afford

to think like that.

I miss my sister.

Yeah I know.

Guess, I'll see you tomorrow.

See you tomorrow.

They put all kind of

stuff right in front.

Right in the mouth of the Curnocopia.

There'll even be a bow there.

Don't go for it.

Why not?

It's a Bloodbath, they're

trying to pull you in.

It's not your game.

You turn, run, find

a high ground.

Look for water.

Water's your new best friend.

Don't step off that pedestal earlier

or they'll blow you sky high.

I won't.

Katniss.

You can do this.

Thanks.

Give me your arm.

Give me your arm.

Give me your arm.

What is that?

Your tracker.

Less than a minute people!

Final checks.

So fifteen up, they are flying.

Here.

Thank you.

I'm not allowed to bet.

But if i could I'd bet on you!

Okay, they're in the tubes.

...49...

...48...

...47... 46...

...45... 44...

...43... 42...

...41... 40...

...39... 38...

...37... 36...

...35... 34...

...33... 32...

...31... 30...

...29... 28

...27... 26...

...25... 24...

...23... 22...

And of course...

There's the familiar

boom of the cannon.

Which marks the end of

another fallen Tribute.

Well, that makes 13 gone

in the first eight hours.

And Claudius, I think I

seen alliance forming.

Please don't kill me. Oh no!

Hey, loverboy!

You sure she went this way?

Yeah, I'm sure.

You better be.

Yeah. That was a steer

comb back there.

Are you sure we shouldn't

just kill him now?

Nah. He's our best

chance at finding her.

Sir.

She is almost at the edge.

Two kilometers away from

the nearest Tribute.

Let's turn her around.

Killing another on my account... one.

Two.

Uh, she's heading

towards the left flank.

Okay.

Sure.

She's almost there.

Lucia, get a cannon ready.

Oh there she is. There she is.

What you got baby?

Kill here Cato!

I'm coming for you!

I'll do it myself.

Get her!

Come on. Come on.

Maybe you should throw the sword.

Let's just wait her out.

She's gonna come down at some points.

That's gonne start her there.

Okay.

Somebody make a fire.

Thank you.

Pssst.

Pssst.

Claudius. I think those are

trackerjackers. Am I wrong?

Oooh.

Those things are very lethal.

Very.

For those of you who don't know.

Trackerjackers are genetically

engineered wasps.

Whose venom causes serious pain.

Powerful hallucinations and

in extreme cases, death.

Run!

Run!

Run!

Damn it. Go!

Katniss, no! What're you doing?

Go!

Hallow isn't lethal.

But the venom of a

trackerjacker sting...

...is enough to doze

off hallucinations.

Please do something.

Katniss, go!

Get out of here!

What're you doing? Go!

Rue?

It's okay. I'm not gonna hurt you.

You want mine too?

No, that's okay.

Here.

Thanks.

How long was I asleep?

A couple of days.

I change your leaves twice.

Thank you.

So what happened? When I was out?

The girl from 1 and the boy from 10.

And the uh...

And the boy from my district?

No, he's okay.

I think he's down by the river.

Is all about true?

What?

You and him.

So where are Cato and the others?

They got all their

supplies down by the lake.

It's prod up in this

great big pyramid.

That sounds tempting.

Now this green stuff is

gonna smoke like crazy, so

as soon as you light it.

Move on to the next fire.

Light this one last.

And I'll meet you back over here.

Right.

I'll destroy their stuff

while they're chasing us.

We need a signal, in case

one of us gets held up.

Okay. Like what?

Here. Watch this.

Mocking jays.

That's great.

Back home, we used them

to signal all the time..

You try.

Okay so, if we hear that means we're

okay and we'll be back real soon.

We're gonna be okay.

Hey.

I'll see you for supper.

Okay.

Guys, guys look!

Come here. Come on, come on look!

Let's go.

You stay guard over till we get back.

I wanna see if she's gonna

figure out this booby trap.

Yes. It seems they

reburied their mines

around that big pile of goodies.

She certainly figure

it out, haven't she?

Katniss!

Katniss!

Katniss help!

Katniss!

Help me! Help!

Katniss!

Katniss!

It's okay.

You're okay.

You're alright.

You're fine.. see?

It's okay.

You're okay.

You're okay.

You're okay.

Did you blow up the food?

Every bit of it.

Good.

You have to win.

Okay.

Deep in the meadow.

Under the willow.

A bed of grass.

A soft, green pillow.

Lay down your head.

And close your eyes.

Don't kill her.

You just create a murder.

It seems I've already got one.

I heard this rumors

out on District 11.

This could get away from here.

What do you want?

There are a lot of

anger out there.

I know you know how to handle

a mod, you've done it before.

If you can't scare them.

Give them something to root for.

Such as?

Young love.

So you were like an underdog.

Everyone likes an underdog.

I don't.

How many are dead?

Uh...

Not personally, no!

I have.

Lots of underdogs.

Not too cold too.

Row crops. Minerals.

Things we need.

There are lots of underdogs.

And I think if you could see them.

You would not root for them either.

Unlike you..

Be careful.

Attention Tributes. Attention!

The regulations required a single

victor has been... suspended!

From now on, two victors maybe

crowned if both originate

from the same district.

This will be the only announcement.

Oh my God! Peeta!

Peeta!

Hi.

It's okay.

What was it?

The sword.

It's badly hurt.

It's gonna be fine.

Katniss...

Katniss...

No!

I'm not gonna leave you!

I'm not gonna do that.

Why not?

Nobody's gonna find you in here.

They already found me.

We just get you some medicine.

He can't.

They don't give so much parachutes.

We'll figure something out.

Like what?

Something.

Is that medicine?

No!

Soup.

Nice taste.

Do you fed - once?

I think about that all the time.
