"I promised Cato if he let me have you, I'd give the audience a good show."
Katniss prepares for the feast and sizes up her competition. Meh, boring opening. She basically stakes out the feast and waits for it to arrive, and arrive it does. And now the fun begins.
Foxface outsmarts everyone by hiding close enough to grab her pack and get the f*** out of there, although I do wonder what she would have that would make her pack smaller than Cato/Clove's and Thresh's. Granted, she herself is smaller, but still. But yeah, once again, Katniss wasn't paying attention, so someone got the drop on her in terms of getting supplies, just like at the start of the game. But yeah, finally Katniss realizes the threat Foxface poses. She may not be the strongest, but she's fast and she's smart. And it's like my mama use to say...if you can't beat 'em with these *points at muscles* you can always beat 'em with this *taps head*. Yes, the small redheaded girl is Cirie now. Deal with it.
With Foxface out of the way, we have ourselves a real catfight. Clove vs. Katniss. Once again, Katniss manages to avoid a throwing knife from Clove...which is kinda funny how she's like, the ONLY person who could do that. Meanwhile, Katniss gets her back and then some with an arrow to the arm. Katniss is too concerned with the bag that she doesn't finish the kill though, and that allows Clove to get her wits back about her and crack her in the dome with a knife (she should be thankful, given how easily a knife can embed in your skull, if Battle Royale is to be believed). But yeah, each girl has a hit now, but Clove's is definitely more devastating. She's certainly ahead in terms of the judges' scorecards.
Now, I have to say that if they weren't trying to kill each other, the position Clove's in with Katniss would be extremely hot. I'm sure Cato is in the woods with his hand down his pants, watching all of this. Clove's definitely got the upper hand, but who would honestly expect her to be the goddamn Merchant from Resident Evil, opening her jacket to reveal a f***ton of knives. Where the hell do you even get all of those? Are you John Locke or something? But yeah, Clove's pretty much only in this scene as a unique character, but it's this scene that makes me love her as a f***ing bloodlust psychopath. Cato's just a dumb jock, but Clove's a psycho, and that makes her a much more fun villain. She wants to torture Katniss because f*** Katniss, that's why. I even gave her the quote for this chapter because holy s*** that's hot.
Unfortunately, Clove REALLY takes too much time with her twisted psycho s***, and she gets Jason Voorhees'D by Thresh outta NOWHERE. And just like in a Friday the 13th movie, the white girl falls, tries to get away, and then gets killed in a horrific and painful manner. And then he COULD easily kill Katniss, but at the same time, I feel like he didn't want to even from the beginning. I mean, he could've just let Clove f*** her *drool* I mean, f*** her up, but he saved her and then spared her life at great personal risk. So yeah, Thresh is a good guy, and thanks to him, Peeta survives. Sadly, all this comes at the expense of the best of the non-main characters, and in tribute (lol, I did it again):
Shine on you crazy b****. Shine on.
