Peeta Mellark gave Katniss a loaf of bread when she was little. This act gave Katniss hope after her dad died in a mine explosion.She kept her family alive and conquered her worst fears hunting outside District 12’s fences in the woods. Then, after the first Hunger Games she got new fears of the things that happened in the games. Like the mutant wolfs that attacked Katniss and Peeta and the poison berries that were a disgrace to the Capital.

Snow, the Capital president, told Katniss to be aware that her can kill her whole family and all her friends, and even District 12 if she couldn’t stop the uprisings in the Districts.If there was an uprising, someone Katniss knew would get hurt. This made Katniss even more angry with the Capital and she wanted to just kill President Snow once and for all.
