Cinna’s workroom.- DAY. The lights flicker on. KATNISS bats her eyes at the sudden light, trying to adjust her eyes to the bright lights, slightly startled. She is naked, except for a bra, underwear, and a tank top. CINNA circles her, examining her body like a piece of work. DISTRICT 12 DAYS EARLIER INT. Everdeen household- DAY. Katniss stretches on her bed from the effects of just waking up. She finds the other side of her bed empty. She props herself on one elbow, finding PRIM curled up by her MOTHER on another bed, both asleep. BUTTERCUP, the cat, sits at the feet of Prim. Katniss gets up to get ready to hunt. Once ready, she takes goat cheese from the table. Katniss goes to Prim and kisses her on the forehead. KATNISS (whispered) Thanks, Prim. Katniss puts the cheese in her pocket as she steps outside. She proceeds to walk towards the edge of Seam. She leans towards the fence and listens. It’s silent. She slips underneath the fence. She picks up her archery set and equips herself. She looks at a kid trying to retrieve an apple from a tree.
