Vespia watched as the faces of the dead tributes flashed across the capitol-made sky. ' Axel died after all. He would've been great if he were on the career team too ' Vespia thought. But she won't let it become a moment of her weakness. After the capitol theme stopped playing, she looked towards the woods and thought of the dangers that were possibly lurking in them. Holding her hatchet and knives in a hard grip, she asked the other careers, " We better head in there and find a good place to sleep. Or would you guys prefer to sleep out here? "

She went beside Rhiannon, knowing that she also feels the loss of her district partner. Vespia's mother was right after all. Back in District 2, her mother's final words to her were " Contain your emotions. Never let them get in your way "

Looking back up, she saw the face of her family members, knowing that she might not return to them alive. " If were going to die in here, might as well make it hard for the others to stay alive " she muttered absentmindedly.
