There have been explanations. Stories and interpretations provided to her by the others trapped in confinement with her. Most she's scoffed at, scowled at anyone who dare approached her and clutched her bow tighter in her hands. She's not stupid. She's done this before, been trapped in a game, used by those that might have claimed to have nothing but good intentions at heart. Do what's necessary for the sake of Panem.
Kill whomever's necessary for your own survival.
She's done it once and she won't hesitate to do it again. Because she's not where she's supposed to be. She's not in Panem, not in District 12. Home in a place slowly rebuilding itself, in a place that seems as alien to her as familiar sometimes. But there's the outdoors there. Greasy Sae and her little granddaughter who still come by to check on her. There doesn't seem to be any of that, here.
Katniss stays in the corner that she's claimed as her own since wandering into this room. It's safer with her back to the wall. No one can sneak up and surprise her. Quietly, she watches everyone that comes and goes. It's clear she doesn't want to be here. Or that she won't hesitate to shoot if someone gets too close.
Katniss Everdeen, The Hunger Games, option 1 please!
