The Key To The Rebels Success

After The Quarter Quell

A few months after the events of the 101st Games or the 4th Quarter Quell the capitol seemed comfortable with their new power and the districts lack of supplies. The districts were in ruins and peacekeepers were barely needed as the population of Panems districts were weak and tired. The few peacekeepers dotted throughout the districts had an easy job. Eugieania Cardew the new president informed peacekeepers that the hiding victors were no longer needed and that they could live in the secret hideaway bunkers forever if they wanted. In the district 5 victor bunker Linnet Laurè and Volta Perez were the only surviving victors and the only other person who knew of their location was Edison Ellnen and he was being guarded in his house with a bad broken leg. Linnet felt helpless and spent hours at a time scheming about the defeat of the capitol. In the district 7 bunker Asha Seetle was the only person there. Asha's family and friends were all dead and the dogs she had trained were hidden in an empty house in the victors village. Grover Branks had fled into the forest after being attaked by a large number of peacekeepers.

Linnet and Volta

Linnet and Volta talked and planned for hours at a time. They often creeped out and looked out of their bunker but always saw peacekeepers and Volta became agitated and bored at the treatment. Volta and Linnet tried to invent something and often tried to creep out of the bunker to reach the overhead electricity wires. Volta was a somewhat recent victor and had been kidnapped by the capitol on a random day to become a tribute. Since the capitol couldn't hold reaping procedures they instead went to each district at a random date and kidnapped the first male and female they could see who was able to fight in the games. Once all the tributes were ready to fight they would be thrown into a capitol warehouse and be forced to fight. One day however when Linnet peeked out of the bunker no peacekeepers were in sight and Linnet gasped, she seized her opportunity then rushed forward and grabbed a crowbar used to help a mechanic construct the electrical machines. Linnet climbed up the bar before smashing the wires and ripping them of , Volta came out and her eyes widened as she ran forward and started taking various mechanical wires and gadgets. In about 10 minutes Linnet and Volta had taken enough supplies and got back into their bunkers before spending a week on the gadget. When the gadget was done Volta and Linnet creeped out of the bunker before hiding behind a machine. The peacekeepers were more distracted than usual which made it easier for the 2 girls to travel stealthily through the bombed roads and make it near the boarders of district 5. Many peacekeepers stood guard at the borders and Linnet turned to Volta then nodded, in a directed throw the small gadget flew forward and rolled on the ground before there was an explosion and all of the peacekeepers collapsed to the ground some even flying a few feet in the air. Linnet and Volta then checked they had all the supplies they need before venturing out of district 5, just as they stepped outside the borders a figure ran in front of them and they both gasped.

Asha and Grover

A week before Linnet and Volta created the mechanical gadget Asha also noticed the sudden disappearance of various peacekeepers that were guarding near her bunker. Asha took the opportunity and escaped through the woods making a clear path to the victors village. It took Asha 40 minutes to travel across all of district 7, as she reached the entrance of the village she stared at her house before sighing then sprinting to the house that housed her dogs hoping they were still alive. As Asha clambered up the steps she suddenly heard a whimpering and gasped as she opened up the door to find the dogs. There were 5 of them there out of the original 8 and Asha cried as she found the oldest dogs of the pack lying peacefully on the ground, dead. The kitchen of the house was in ruins and Asha smiled at the dogs realising how they had survived. Asha then tested if they still knew their training and when she found out they did she gasped with delight. Asha then rushed towards her house in the village and took various supplies and pictures one of which had her and Root standing with Nikushima Damson a victor from district 10. Asha missed Root but continued and rushed out of the village and into the heart of the district 7. Asha carefully made her way through the district until she heard a groaning of anger. 'That Grover, how'd he escape, distracted us all. Filthy orphan', the voice belonged to a peacekeeper and Asha who had been so content on listening didn't realise they were about to catch her. Asha panicked just as the peacekeepers suddenly turned a corner and saw her. Asha screamed and was knocked to the ground. She roared out and grabbed a handful of rubble before throwing it at one of the men. He narrowly ducked and raised his gun until Asha screamed, 'Attak!', the dogs knew the command and pounced forward to attak the peacekeepers. The peacekeepers lay sprawled on the ground and Asha sprinted now not caring if anyone saw her and dashing to leave 7, find Grover or Linnet and start the fight again. As Asha sprinted recklessly through the district some injured citizens wandering down the road yelled and shouted support to her as she ran. It took Asha a while to reach the districts borders but just as she was about to step into the bordering forest she smacked into someone and readied her fists for a fight then lowered them as she saw who this was. Holding an axe was Grover Branks and she seemed relieved to see him. 'Grover what's happening, how've you been', Asha asked. 'Okay I decided to come back and find you. I think we should find Linnet', Asha nodded and Grover continued that he had passed through district 8 and that Jersey Berrick victor of the 101st hunger games was injured. Asha sighed and the pair walked into the woods to discuss a plan. After 10 minutes the pair decided to separate and go get the others. Asha was decided to go and find Nikushima then head to district 4 since district 7 and district 4 had an alliance. Asha said that the citizens of 4 were strong and could help. Grover would go to Linnet and come up with a plan to get the districts back in the fight. The pair nodded and Grover handed Asha a long knife, he then petted the dogs and wished Asha luck before going in the opposite direction to where she was walking and continuing forward to district 5.

Edison Elnen

Edison's time during the capitols short rule was horrible and when he tried to fight off the peacekeepers rallying the districts he was badly beaten and his leg was horribly damaged. Seen as a threat to the ruling in 5 he was guarded by peacekeepers and kept in his bed all day. Edison over exaggerated his injury to make it seem like he wasn't getting better when he was. Edison's resting made him not tired and his leg healed over the weeks as he lay in bed. One day when there was only two peacekeepers guarding he pretended to be sleeping and the peacekeepers were talking he clenched his fists and then he suddenly started coughing and gasping for breath. The peacekeepers job was to keep him alive so when he was not injured he could be captured, in his capture he would be forced to fight captured rebel officials and either die or kill his allies. The peacekeepers rushed to him and as one stood beside him he punched him in the face and ripped his gun out of his hands. The other peacekeeper ran over and began to smash Edison's head against the wall but Edison used all his strength to pick up the gun and fire. Blood splattered everywhere and Edison groaned in pain then pulled himself out of his bed. Although his leg was aching he could still jog on it. Just then he heard someone say, 'The Edison boy attaked, come get him', Edison turned around to see the punched peacekeeper talking into a microphone and then grinning at Edison. Edison shot him in the head and sighed. He grabbed a bag and put food and water in it then suddenly rushed out of the building and saw one lone peacekeeper rushing to the building the peacekeeper raised a taser that shot volts of lightning but before he could fire Edison shot a bullet and it soared through the air and straight into her head. She slumped through the ground and Edison didn't waste any time as he sprinted through the mechanical warehouses that had been bombed and hearing the distant roar of Peacekeepers. Edison took a few days to reach the borders of 5 due to his still sore leg but in about a week he reached the borders. Just as he ran forward he ran in front of 3 figures and they gasped.

The Plan

The figure stood in front of Linnet and Volta and Volta readied a wire about to choke the potential attacker but the figure pulled down their hood and Linnet rushed forward and embraced Grover Branks. The trio went into the bordering woods of 5 and discussed what had happened to them. Grover explained how he had returned to 7 and him and Asha had agreed, he told the girls he had come to 5 to find them and that it had taken him days to find them. He asked if they had a plan and Linnet nodded. Linnet told Grover that when she and Root had sent the avoxes into the district 6 hovercrafts to fly to the remains of Ireland a small remaining nation that the district 6 flyers had lended the Irish nation with 2 of their 3 hovercrafts and the citizens of district 6 had all flown away with one hovercraft. Linnet explained that Ireland had a military and had weapons in case of evasion from some other surviving islands that became small nations. Volta then said that the citizens of 3 had a communication device to send messages to Ireland and that they planned to ask the Irish nation if they could use their military and hovercrafts to help fight against the capitol and bring supplies to help the districts start their industries again. Grover grinned and said that finally the capitol would fall but just as he said it Edison Elnen collapsed a few meters away and they all rushed to help him.

DIstrict 10

During the period of the capitols control Nikushima Damson, a victor and rebel was a bit braver than the rest and often left his bunker to explore and make sure his herds of cattle were okay. He was often spotted yet always escaped from the peacekeepers narrowly without being seen going in to his bunker. Another victor Holstein Muller barated Nikushima for his dangerous behaviour yet Nikushima always snapped that Avada was brave and this caused the rebels to have the strength to fight. Nikushima tried encouraging the others to do something and continue the army of the districts but the others were old and tired, in no way to fight a war. One day as Nikushima woke up and got ready to go check on the cattle whilst the other victors slept he felt something strange about the district today and noticed no peacekeepers around. As he neared the fields, he heard the screams and ran towards them. As he neared the destroyed justice hall he looked at the stage and saw Asha Seetle being whipped brutally as she was held to a pillar. There was an audience of peacekeepers and the head peacekeeper roared that she had tried to get to the weakling Nikushima and that she had been caught, he laughed as he spoke and Nikushima fumed with anger as he saw them enjoying her pain. Asha was looking towards 5 dogs squished into a cage whimpering. Nikushima crept forward and as Asha was whipped once more he lunged forward and wrestled at a peacekeeper yet he was no match for the audience and a flash of lightning from a taser was the lat thing Nikushima saw. Nikushima woke up tied to another pillar and his shirt had been ripped off, as he opened his eyes a searing pain flooded through his body and he noticed a whip flying back to the hand of a peacekeeper. Nikushima cried in pain as whips met his body, over and over he felt the searing pain and tried to fight back. After what felt like hours there was a sudden change in the atmosphere and two peacekeepers suddenly fell arrows pointing out of their heads. Nikushima looked and saw a group of citizens holding weapons and staring at the peacekeepers. They must have heard the screams. He recognised them as the cattle protectors people who guarded the cattle from wild animals. That explained the weapons and I suddenly realised as they began to fight that there was a lot more citizens then peacekeepers. The fight began and even the peacekeepers guns could not fight of the numbers. Within about 30 minutes my people had killed the audience peacekeepers. Asha, Nikushima and the dogs were freed and brought to the district 10 apothecary were they were healed for hours and forced to rest for exactly 1 day. The pair talked and Asha said that Grover had gone to district 5 to find Linnet and make a plan whilst she had come here to find him and go to district 4 a district 7 had a strong alliance with and a district with strength. Asha explained however that she had been caught entering the districts and they had tortured her and the dogs to know why she was in 10. Nikushima added that 10 might now be able to fight properly and Asha nodded. After a few days Asha and Nikushima had left the apothecary and headed to the bunker. Nikushima asked his fellow district 10 victors if they wanted to come but they said no wished him luck and the pair who were ready to fight headed to the coastline to go to district 4.
