Chapter Summaries & Analyses
Katniss takes off into the jungle, following the sound of Prim’s voice screaming in agony. However, she soon finds that it’s not Prim at all, but “a small, crested black bird” (340). Katniss shoots the bird and discovers that it is a jabberjay: one of the Capitol’s muttations that can perfectly mimic human voices. Finnick follows Katniss into the jungle, and suddenly there is “another voice, not Prim’s, maybe a young woman’s” (341). Finnick runs after the voice, shouting the name “Annie,” and Katniss tries to explain that it’s not real. Finnick and Katniss become stuck behind a barrier with the torturous birds until the full hour has passed, listening to the imitated voices of the people they love in pain. Once they are free and can join up with the others, Johanna openly taunts the Gamemakers, which shocks and impresses Katniss. Katniss learns that Finnick is in love with a girl back in District 4 named Annie, and the group receives more bread from Haymitch. During a private moment, Peeta tells Katniss that she has to be the one to live, not him. He explains that if she dies and he lives, “there’s no life for [him] at all back in District Twelve” (351), so he will fight to keep her alive.
