Chapters 5-14

ch 10-14

Chapter 10-14 was very shoking to me especially when Peeta was working with the Careers. That is probably why he told Katniss not to go for the bow. What he doesn't know though is that they are using him to find Katniss. Katniss has been having some trouble in the games on top of that too. For example the gamemakers shot fireballs at her, hitting her calf and severely injuring her which could have been really bad for the rest of the games. Thankfully she got some medicine from her sponsers, and found shelter in a tree. A lot of things happened while Katniss was up in that tree too. She came in contact with the Careers.  She also met Rue, the 12 year old little tribute, in the tree beside her.   it was very strange that Rue didn't try to kill Katniss since she had an easy oppurtunity because Katniss had no idea she was in the tree.  So why didnt she try to kill her?  It was probally the fact she  thought that she was safe from Katniss because she knew Katniss had a little sister like her. The wierd part was that Rue actually helped Katniss, because Rue pointed out a wasp nest which Katniss used to scare away the Careers and get the bow. Finally Peeta saved Katniss's life because he said to get up and  Run on chapther 14  before the other Career showed up.  What Katniss will do now that she has the bow? Do you think she is gunna keep hiding or is she going to fight? 

ch 5-9

In chapter 5 Katniss talks about her stylists. The stylists for the games that she will be in and what he planned to do for the opening ceremony outfits. Her stylists name is Cinna and he wants Katniss and Peeta in full black unitards. He also want them to wear actual flaming capes and headdresses. They did this because they wanted to represent that they were from the district that mined coal. On chapter 5 she describes the experience she has with the opening ceremonies including riding in chariots. At first the crowd was alarmed that they were on fire but then they realized that it was supposed to be like that. Then Katniss and Petta were showered with cheers and shouts of District 12. It was like their moment to really shine and Katniss even blew some kisses leaving most of the crowd reaching up to catch them. The only problem was that the other tributes were jealous of their dramatic entrance to the games. Everyone didnt want much to do with them after and wanted to focus more on their training to be sure they would beat them in the games. Then the other chapters decribe how good she is doing in the games. We can she she is talented.

So was it wise of Cinna to give Katniss and Peeta this advantage in the opening of the ceremony?
