Peeta offers to clean Haymitch up, which Katniss wonders about that Peeta is being kind. Kind?! Katniss and Prim go to the Meadow where she could scavenge for even more food with her mother's book. Katniss also begins going under the fence surrounding District 12 and goes into the woods to hunt. She uses the small bow and arrow that her father had made for her, Katniss kills a rabbit on her first day and the family has meat for the first time in months.
Later that summer, she finds the water plant, she remembers that they're called "Katniss." And that her father told her: "As long you can find yourself, you'll never starve". With the food and the hope, Katniss's mother begins to come out of her depression..
The next day during breakfast Katniss asks Haymitch for advice, and he says "stay alive". The train pulls into the Capitol and people are on hand Katniss backs away from the window, but Peeta smiles and waves and says. "One of them may be rich". Katniss realizes that maybe she has underestimated Peeta. Maybe he does have a plan and that plan probably involves killing her.
Good summary, although we are on chapter 14 not 4 so yah just to let you know if you didn't already know that... I like that you put in the important parts about Katniss' desperate past.
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the summary :)
ReplyDeleteWell, since I'm already on chapter 17 I kind of now what's going on with Peeta. Peeta actually seemed like he was going to deceive Katniss by joining the Careers, but he had a change of heart that may mean that Peeta wants Katniss to win. I think Peeta wants to keep his word and die "honorably" and possibly sacrifice himself to allow Katniss to win.
