He doesn't sleep well. He dreams about Posey and his Mom's hands and his brothers. He dreams about them thin and hungry. He dreams about Katniss and wakes up flushed and sad with no real memory of what he was actually dreaming. His new bed is wide and empty and not his. He dresses in the dark and shoulders his bow.

There's a full moon over head. It casts a lot of light. He checks his snares methodically. His game bag gains weight.
When he sees her through the trees, he pauses. It all feels like history repeating.

Once upon a time, a boy met a girl in the wood.

"Katniss?"
