Notes
So in case you haven't noticed, this is a new fanfiction, I don't know whats going to happen to the Alex Rider fanfiction I am writing I'm either just gonna drop it entirely or write this and then go back to it, we'll see I guess.
Melody was always the "bad" child, she wasn't necessarily "bad" but her twin brother Finn got all of the attention, it was always Finn did this, Finn did that, she hated it, she rarely got any attention, the only time she had gotten a tiny bit of attention was when she was little, the time she found a squirrel, she brought it home with her and her parents let her keep it for a few days, then Finn said it got into his room and woke him up so of course, they had to get rid of it.
Her mother, Katniss was the president of Panem, a few weeks after the death of the leader of the rebellion, Katniss, accompanied by Gale and Peeta explained why she had killed Coin. Katniss was "out of it" for months after the death of Prim, she was just there, and there wasn't a single thing she could have done to help Prim.
Katniss visited Prim's grave in the newly rebuilt Discrict 12 every Sunday morning, they had a memorial built in place of Katniss' old house in District 12, that's where they buried Prim, sometimes she would take Melody and Finn with her, they would always just sit by the grave for a few miniutes, silent, just watching the sun rise
Melody was up late studying, they had a history exam about "The Old Panem," the Panem before Snow died, before the rebellion started their "hunt" for snow. Finn didn't study, he never studied for anything he just relied on dumb luck, sometimes he got lucky, sometimes he didn't.
Melody had tried asking her mother about "The Old Panem" but she refused to answer she said that "she had to study," and that "telling her about it would be helping her to cheat."
Melody aced her test, mainly because she stayed up until four in the morning studying, the only downside to staying up until four in the morning to study was that she almost fell asleep in the middle of her exams, she was woken up by her teacher, shouting at her for falling asleep.
When Melody got home both her parents congratulated her, for the second time in her life she was actually getting some attention, for the few minutes of attention she had, she enjoyed it, it was nice getting some attention for once.
After dinner their parents said they needed to tell them something, they said that they both needed to go up to Disctrict 2, the "Government District" to get some stuff sorted out, they would have to manage themselves for a few days, Melody could probably manage by herself but Finn was there, when their parents were away Finn would always annoy her, but it was always the little things, taking her stuff, messing up her room. It would be fine if he did it every once in a while but every single time she would go out of her room he would go in and start trashing it, it was fine at first but it was really starting to get on her nerves. Every morning Melody would have to get up, organise her room, make sure her drawers are all sorted, make sure all the furnicture's touching the wall and make sure every single pencil and pen she had was sorted into a line.
Melody climbed the stairs into her room, slipped into the first comfortable looking thing she could find and got into bed, it was easy for her to get to sleep considering she had stayed up studying until four in the morning the night before, it took what seemed like seconds for her to fall asleep.
