They all ran in. "Cleavers, split up and look for Valkyrie." Ordered Ravel.
Skulduggery, Ghastly and Ravel walked down the corridors and they turned left, then a right. "How will we find our way back? its like a maze in here." asked Ravel.
"I'll find a way." Answered Skulduggery.
"Wait, why didn't you just came here by yourself? Wouldn't it be quicker??"
"Well Ghastly," said Skulduggery," you still haven't released me from the........."
Skulduggery was cut of by a distant scream. It was Valkyrie and all three of them started sprinting down the hall.
After 3 mins of sprinting, they arrived at a junction.
"Which way?" Panted Ravel
Skulduggery flexed his fingers to read the air."This way." He pointed left so they started sprinting again.
Another scream. It was getting louder.
In about 1 mins, they reached a room and peered in it and saw Valkyrie sitting on a chair, chains tyed around her and there was two fresh cuts on her cheek. There was dozens of other cuts around her upper body. Her body under the hip was completely ruined. It was bleeding really badly and there was also some yellow goo gushing out. Even Ghastly's clothes can not protect her. There's a huge cut from Valkyrie's side all the way to her stomach and there is already a pool of blood on the floor. Blood still dripping from her wound. Then a figure stepped in front of Valkyrie. It was Valick.
"Tell me the secret or I'll....." Valick threatens.
"Nev...er..." answered Valkyrie shakily
"Well then, little girl, guess we'll have to see the painful and hard way. It's your choice." tuts Valick
"Don..'t......ca..ll.....me....a..li...ttle....girl"
"Shut up" Glared Valick and she whipped her hand. A new long cut made it's way to her forehead and opened it up painfully and slowly.
"Aaarrrrgggghhhh" screamed Valkyrie.
Even from a distant, Skulduggery could see the flash of white which is the skull.
"Come on! Hurry up!!" Ushered Skulduggery.
They all burst into the room.
Valkyrie could hardly lift up her head to see who is at the door.
"Ah, I see. It's the famous Skulduggery Pleasant and his scarred friend and a....." Valick looked up and down at Ravel. "And......you" Valick said disgustedly.
"Hey!"
"Oh shut up!"
"Make me!"
"Oh the both of you, shut up!" Interrupted Skulduggery. "Our main priority is to rescue Valkyrie."
"Oh you think you can just take Valkyrie from me and I'll let you walk out of here like a king?"
"Um..... Actually yeah." Nodded Skulduggery.
"Oh, don't be silly. We are going to stop you from going out of here. It's a mistake to be here because this is the end of you. Does any of you have anything to say?"
"Yes in fact." Said Ghastly . "We never said that we came alone. Cleavers, ATTACK!!!!"
The floor rumbled, the ceiling shook and the door burst off it's hinges, then it slammed into Valick.
She flipped over the dusty desk and she knocked her head on the edge. Valick raged in fury. She ran forward, kicked the first cleaver in the stomach, punched the second on the ribs. Everyone in the room heard the bone break. The cleaver doubled over and Valick kneed him on the chin. He blacked out before he hit the floor. She batted the third one away. Some of the cleavers were freeing Valkyrie from the chains. They carefully lifted Valkyrie out of it, and run out of the room. Ghastly followed them out.
Skulduggery and Ravel took either side of Valick and they walked around in a circle. Valick was looking both sides to make sure that they were not going to attack. Skulduggery striked first. He lifted his hand and in a blur, his old fashioned revolver flew to his hand, aiming directly at Valick. She froze.
"Give up Valick. This is your only chance. Come with us and we won't hurt you."
"You think that'll just follow you out nicely?" Sneered Valick.
"Yes. But with these beautiful hand cuffs on." Skulduggery held the hand cuffs up in his other hand and dangled it.
"Come on Valick. Skulduggery is offering you a peaceful way out." Growled Ravel
"Me? Going with you guys? Haha" Valick threw her head back and laughs. "I have a reputation to keep up here and I will NOT go out with you guys. So I'll see you soon! Cheerio!!!"
And with that, Valick did a mid flip and disappeared through the door. Skulduggery and Ravel tried to stop her, but she disappeared. Skulduggery scowled "Dammit! We lost her! We should go back now with Valkyrie."
"Yes, we should." Agreed Ravel.
Then, just as they were walking out the door, a part of the walls shifted and an army of Macaleen Mans came tumbling out.
"So that's what the surprise is I was wondering what." Mumbled Ravel
"Same here. This is turning out into a mission impossible. Kind of." Skulduggery mumbled back.
Ravel and Skulduggery stood back to back while the Macaleen Mans rounded in stiffly. The first Macaleen Man reached Ravel and he broke his neck with a twist. Another one replaced him before he had been separated. The Macaleen Mans attacked as one, big, stiff, and easy to break team. Ravel and Skulduggery finished them all in half an hour. The room was filled with bile and gas smell.
"We need to go back and check on Valkyrie." Said Skulduggery.
"Yes, of course." Panted Ravel, still exhausted from the fight.
They walked out of the College and into the Bentley, and drive off.

Chapter Five: Mission Impossible (part 1)
A black van arrived back at the broken down college.
A mysterious man came out and went to the trunk of the van. He carried a black figure out, and darted in the college. He came to a stone wall and used his finger print on the wall to open it. It was a secret passage way into the college without been blasted your head of.
When he got in, he handed the limp body to a woman. Her name was Valick Vesuvius.
"Thank You."
"When would i be getting my payment?"
"Tomorrow."
"Right. But how can i trust you?"
"Because i'll prove it. If you work with us more often, you can expect a big raise."
"Nice" he smiled."i'll meet you here tomorrow at the same time today. And the offer, i'll think about it."
And he walked away.
*******
Skulduggery walked in to his house and instantly, he realised something was wrong. The window was smashed, the door was off, the table and chairs was shattered all over the floor. He sprinted into his bedroom and the chair Valkyrie was sitting on was empty. He groaned in frastration and looked around the room. He saw his diary lying open. He stomach felt like it suddenly droped to the floor."Oh please dont, please dont." he prayed. He went over and looked."oh no! bloody hell. so nightmares do come true." he muttered.He turned and sprinted out of the room.He went into the Bentley and the tyres roared. He is going to the sancutary to get more back up.
He arrived at the sancutary and sprinted in. All the other sorceres all stared in astonishment. He burst in to the main hall. Immeadeatly, the conversation stoped.
"What's wrong Skulduggery?" Asked Gastly
"yeah, why the rush?" said Ravel
" Valkyrie has been kidnapped!"
"That's....... impossible" said Gastly after the long silence.
"yeah. Valkyrie is strong. of course she'll protect herself. She's strong."
"No, she's been weak after the fight with Valick. She was caught in the explosion."
"do we know where she could be held at?"
"no. but the old college has had some ativites going on there."
"we should check it out."
" Give me 100 cleavers and i'll drag out Valick and who ever else was invovled in this."
"Calm down, Skulduggery. We'll come with you." Said Gastly.
"we cant,"protested Mist.
"This is Valkyrie. we are comin. you stay back in the sanctutary."
"fine" grumbled Mist.
One black van pulled up at the old college, another one came. in the end, there was a total of 24 van there. Skulduggery ,Ravel and Gastly came out of the first one. They walked in the college.
"wait, stop." said Skulduggery."Cant you see? this is way too simple.There must be some sort of trap here."
"Skulduggery's right."Agreed Ravel."cleavers, stop."
All cleavers stopped. Skulduggery steped cautiously forward, picked up a pebble and let it skipped across the floor. It set off all the booby traps."seriouly, i think there has to be another way in.everyone out. search the building for a secret passage way.
Skulduggery put his gloved hand on the wall and felt it. He knocked on the wall, and test it. After 10 mins of searching, Skulduggery finally said" I think this is it." The cleavers immeadeatly started smashing the wall. Ravel, Gastly and Skulduggery threw everything they have at the wall. they finally broken it down.
They all ran in. "Cleavers, split up and look for Valkyrie."Ordered Ravel.
Skulduggery, Gastly and Ravel walked down the corridors and they turned a left, then a right. "How will we find our way back? its like a maze in here."asked Ravel.
"i'll find a way." Answered Skulduggery.
The second part will come out soon.

Chapter four: unlucky capture (part two)
"Then i guess that you just have to learn the hard way, little darling"
The intruder was walking closer and closer towards Valkyrie and she tried everything she know but the intruder was too fast. the intruder punched Valkyrie in the stomach and all the air came from her body, then she responded by ducking low and tried to get her knuckle on the intruder's chin. He quickly ducked away but Valkyrie wouldn't let him. She pressed in and started firing shawdow punches on him, then she quickly figuered out what he was doing and demonstrated the worst and unflexibleist cartwheel and ducked away but the intruder flexed at the last moment and drove his knee up Valkyrie's head. She crashed down safetly on her back. The thought of the intruder nearly killed her by breaking her neck lighted a flame in her heart so she pressed in again and stated throwing flames and shadow spears at the man. All of them missed. He threw Skulduggery's lamp and it struck Valkyrie's chest. She immedeatly felt that all the air in her lungs flew out in a gush and a sharp sting on her chest. She knew immediately that her ribs are broken. She doubled over with pain and trying to breath..
He was suddenly across the room, smashing a metal fruit ball at Valkyrie's head. In every hit, sparks fly behind her eyelid. She tried to kick his leg out from under him but he stepped away. She then used the opportunity and lunged at him. She pushed at the air and the intruder went flying over the sofa, he bounced, twice, three times until he finally came to a stop and crashed down on the table. But Valkyrie didn't let him rest. She swiped three spears of shadow at him and they all cut through his clothes. Blood immeadiatly sprout out. She picked up the metal fruit bowl and run at the intruder. She hit him once, twice and three times. But then he grabbed her leg and she tried to squirm free but he was holding on tight and he triped Valkyrie off her feet. She landed painfully on her back and sparks flew again behind her eyelid. She knew that he was going to end this or inflick more pain, then finish her. Either way, she was going to get killed. So she held her breath and waited for the moment to come. But it never did. The intruder stood over Valkyrie and laughed "wow, you are a tough one. My boss was right about you. Now, do you want to do it the hard way or the easy way?"
Since she got no weapon left, all she could do is spit at him. He sighed" you really are a stupid girl." He started firing down punches but Valkyrie doged all of them and rolled up to her feet. She lashed out a kick which was blocked and reponded by a punch to cheek, then she punched him in the mouth with a fistful of shadows and blood immediately started flowing. The intruder raged. He moved quickly towards her and started punching her. She found her hand on his chest and pushed at the air. He went flying back like a rocket. He hit the wall and bounced, and landed on his stomach.
He lifted his head up and spit out some blood. He used a chair to smash a near by window and pulled out a piece of glass. He was next to Valkyrie in a flash and dug the glass in to her cheek. She felt nothing at first, but when he started truning and digging even further, she cried out and, simply, he punched Valkyrie on the chin and she fainted.
The intruder straightened up. "well, that was hard."
And he walked back outside, carrying Valkyrie and layed her in the trunk of the car. He got int the car and quickly sped away.

Chapter four: unlucky capture (part one)
Valkyrie walked out of the room, finding nobody there."Skulduggery?" she yelled "Skulduggery, are you there? if this was a joke, its not funny!" again, nobody answered. Valkyrie was getting worried. she clicked her right hand and a flame developed, she wore her ring on her left hand and right now it was writhing with shadows, ready to attack anyone who comes. *crash* she heard a loud crash in the toilet. she crept quietly to the toilet, peeking over and saw nothing. she walked cautiously in and a black shadow dropped down on her. she tried to kick the intruder in the shins but the intruder only grunted. her lungs is already burning and she was losing focus but at the last moment, she pressed her flaming hand to the intruders stomach. the intruder let go and started running around but after a moment before Valkyrie could finish filling her lungs with air, the intruder clicked his hand and distingushed the fire. he swung his arm in an arc and caught Valkyrie in the stomach. she felt all the new air drawn in her lungs came out. she doubled over in pain. The intruder did it again and again then, Valkyrie staggered forward and punched the intruder in the stomach. she pushed at the air and the intruder flew backwards in the air and hit Skulduggery's new stero. but when he staggered up, he came by next to Valkyrie in a flash of an eye. Valkyrie jumped and immediately flipped over and used the air to drag one of the tables at the intruder. then she flung 3 spears of shadows at the intruder and all but 1 missed, but Valkyrie knew that the intruder was toying with her and was much more better than herself. then he appeared next to her and decided to end everthing. Valkyrie knew immediately jumped away from him and threw 3 more fire balls at him. he doged all of them and kept on continuing walking towards her.
"What are you doing here?" she yelled desperately
"What am i doing here? Darling, i'm here to take you to my master. so now if you would just stop there and wait, i'll knock you out so you could save us all the trouble."
"No!"
"Then i guess that you just have to learn the hard way, little darling"
the second half will come out soon!

The hunger games-Catching Fire (spoilers. warnings!)
Ii've just finished the first book of the hunger games. it is really good. i am hoping to get the next one, catching fire and Mockinjay. i've read about them in wikipedia and some parts of it were not fair and most of it made me hate the Capitol very much. i like Cina very much but i think in mockingjay, he got beat up by the capitol and got draged away. my guesse is that he became an avox. which is very sad because i like him very much.
i also cant belive that prim, katniss' sister was killed alone with other childs while she was the emergency medical team. President snow was later found gulity but president coin was the master mind behind it all. i will put up the artical on wiki now so you can read it and most importantly of all, it saves me a whole lot of thinking and summarizing.
Catching Fire:
After winning the 74th Hunger Games in the previous novel, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark return home to District 12, the poorest sector in the country of Panem. Katniss and Peeta are preparing to embark on a "Victory Tour" of Panem, but have rarely spoken since they won the Games and Peeta realized that Katniss' emotions towards him were exaggerated at their mentor Haymitch Abernathy's request. Katniss struggles to understand her feelings about Peeta, and also Gale, who kissed Katniss upon her return to District 12. The day Katniss is due to leave, the Capitol's President Snow arrives at Katniss' home and sternly warns her that she needs to convince Panem's citizens that she and Peeta are truly in love; their actions in the Games have sparked unrest across the districts and many believe their attempted suicide was actually a defiant act against the Capitol rather than sacrificing themselves for love. Snow indirectly threatens both Gale's and Katniss' families.
The Victory Tour's first stop is District 11, home to Rue, Katniss' friend and ally in the Hunger Games, before she died. During the ceremony, Katniss and Peeta deliver quick speeches to District 11, thanking its people for their tributes. Peeta offers to donate a portion of his Victory winnings to Rue's family, and also Thresh's, the other fallen District 11 tribute. When the speeches conclude, an old man whistles the tune that Rue used in the Hunger Games arena to signal Katniss she was safe. The song prompts everyone to salute Katniss with the same gesture she used to bid farewell to Rue. However, the old man is shot dead, and the Capitol refuses to let the pair make any more personal speeches during the tour. Katniss and Peeta then travel to all twelve districts and the Capitol. Katniss urges Peeta to emphasise their supposed love and, during a televised interview, Peeta proposes to Katniss. The Capitol responds by planning an elaborate wedding ceremony for the two. Despite this, Katniss learns that their attempts to subdue rebellion in the districts and convincing Snow they are in love have failed. Back in District 12, Katniss accidentally sees a secret TV report showing a violent uprising in District 8, where many citizens are killed by Peacekeepers, Panem's security force. After this event, District's 12's security is massively tightened, and the current Peacekeepers are replaced with stricter ones. Gale is whipped by the new Head Peacekeeper for hunting, and the fence surrounding District 12 is now constantly electrified, effectively barring Katniss from escape or hunting. Katniss had made it into the woods where she encountered two runaways from District 8. She offered them food, and they have a theory that District 13 was not wiped out by the Capitol and that its residents have gone underground. She is able to get over the electrified fence and back into the district, but is slightly injured.
Later, Cinna and his stylists arrive to help Katniss prepare for her bridal shoot. The stylists tell her about supply shortages across the Capitol, leading Katniss to suspect that rebellions and uprisings are spreading across Panem. President Snow announces that, for the 75th Hunger Games, as part of the "Quarter Quell", a special edition of the Games every quarter-century, tributes will be reaped from a pool of all living Victors of past Hunger Games. Being the only living female victor from District 12, Katniss is chosen for the Quarter Quell by default. When Haymitch is chosen as male tribute, Peeta volunteers in his place to protect Katniss. Desperate to prepare, the trio begin training and studying the winning tactics of past victors.
After arriving at the Capitol, Katniss and Peeta look for potential allies among the other tributes. Katniss meets Finnick Odair, a 24-year-old man who successfully survived the Games at age 14, and Mags, Finnick's 80-year-old mentor, both from District 4. She also meets Beetee and Wiress, older tributes from District 3 who are said to be "exceptionally smart" and adept at working with electronics. Beetee and Wiress tell Katniss that the Capitol leaves the control panels for their force fields in plain sight, making them vulnerable. During the training display for the Gamemakers, Peeta and Katniss show their defiance towards the Capitol and at being forced to return to the Games; Peeta paints a picture of Rue's death and Katniss hangs a training dummy, labeling it, "Seneca Crane," the previous Gamemaker who was executed after declaring both Katniss and Peeta Hunger Game victors. During the interviews, Katniss wears a bridal gown that, when she twirls, harmlessly burns away to reveal a mockingjay costume. Cinna designed this as a defiant act against the Capitol. During Peeta's interview he reveals that he and Katniss are in fact "married" and that Katniss is "pregnant". As the Games are about to begin, Katniss watches in horror as several Peacemakers arrive and beat Cinna, then drag him away.
The new Games arena is a beach and jungle terrain with the Cornucopia located on a small island in the center of a miniature sea. The arena resembles an analog clock with one lethal event occurring every hour on a twelve hour cycle. When the Games start, Katniss and Peeta form an impromptu alliance with Finnick and Mags. They search for the arena's perimeter, but Peeta runs into the force field at the edge, stopping his heart. Finnick revives him using CPR, though Peeta is weakened from the incident. At midnight, lightning strikes a nearby tree, and the next hour the Gamemakers release a poisonous fog in the group's location. The toxic fog causes nerve failure and muscle spasms which inhibits their running while Katniss tries to carry Mags and Finnick carries Peeta. Mags sacrifices herself when Katniss can no longer carry her, allowing the other three to escape. After Mags' death, the group is attacked by mutated monkeys, but all three survive, thanks to the female tribute from District 6 sacrificing herself to save Peeta. Katniss, Peeta, and Finnick join forces with Johanna Mason, a sarcastic and often cruel victor from District 7, an injured Beetee, and Wiress, who is in shock and repeatedly mumbles "tick tock." From Wiress' words, Katniss realizes that the arena is arranged like a clock, with the Gamemakers' disasters occurring on a timed chart, signaled by the lightning at 12 o'clock.
While gathered at the central Cornucopia, the Careers attack the group, killing Wiress, and a battle ensues until the Gamemakers cut it short by rapidly shifting the terrain and disorienting the Tributes. Beetee devises a plan to harness the arena's lightning to supposedly electrocute the rest of the Career tributes when they venture near the water. At night, the group splits to prepare for the plan, but is attacked separately by the remaining tributes. Katniss is knocked out and has her tracker removed by Johanna. Johanna then leads the two remaining careers away from Katniss. An injured Katniss comes across Beetee, holding a knife tied to the wire and appearing to have planned to direct the knife into the force field. Katniss directs the lightning at the force field's control panel with an arrow tied to the wire, destroying the force field and temporarily paralyzing her. When she awakens, Katniss discovers she is being transported to District 13: a place widely believed to no longer exist. She is joined by Finnick, Beetee, and Haymitch, but learns that the Capitol has captured Peeta and Johanna. Katniss is told that there had been a plan among most of the tributes, Haymitch, and Head Gamemaker Plutarch, who secretly opposes the Capitol, to break her and Peeta out of the arena. Katniss' image has become the symbol of the rebellion, which has spread to almost every district during the Games, and all the victors in the alliance were determined to sacrifice themselvs to keep Katniss alive. Finally, Katniss' best friend, Gale, informs her that, although he escaped with her family, District 12 has been bombed and destroyed.
Mockingjay:
The trilogy takes place in the post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, which occupies what used to be North America. Panem is ruled by the Capitol and is surrounded by 12 districts that provide for it. A thirteenth district had reportedly been destroyed in a rebellion against the Capitol. In the first novel, The Hunger Games, sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen volunteers to take her sister Prim's place in the 74th annual Hunger Games, a competition in which one boy and one girl from each district are chosen to fight each other to the death on live television, a punishment inflicted by the Capitol. The last tribute standing wins money and food. When told that both tributes from a district will be allowed to live if they are the last alive, Katniss and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark pretend to be in love to gain sympathy from the viewers but threaten suicide when they are the remaining two tributes and told only one is now allowed to live. This was seen as an act of rebellion against the Capitol. In Catching Fire, Katniss and Peeta are forced to compete again in a special anniversary Hunger Games consisting of tributes who have won past Games. However, before it is over, a few tributes, including Katniss, are rescued by rebels who live in District 13, while Peeta is taken to the Capitol. Katniss' friend Gale Hawthorne informs her that District 12 has been destroyed.
The rebels, including Katniss, take control of the districts and finally begin an assault on the Capitol itself. However, an assault on a "safe" Capitol neighborhood goes wrong, and Katniss and her team flee further into the Capitol with the intent of finding and killing President Snow. Many members of Katniss' team are killed through intense urban warfare, including Finnick Odair. Eventually, Katniss finds herself pressing on alone towards Snow's mansion, which has supposedly been opened to shelter Capitol children (but is actually intended to provide human shields for Snow). Afterwards, bombs placed in supply packages kill many of these children and a rebel medical team, including Katniss' sister, Prim.
President Snow is tried and found guilty, but he tells Katniss that the final assault that killed Prim was ordered by President Coin. Katniss realizes that if this is true, the bombing may have been the result of a plan originally developed by Gale, however, Gale denied his involvement. Katniss remembers a conversation with Snow, following the 74th Annual Hunger Games, in which they agreed not to lie to each other. When she is supposed to execute Snow, she realizes that he was telling the truth and kills Coin instead. A riot ensues and Snow is found dead, having possibly choked on his own blood (laughing) or been trampled in the crowd. Katniss then tries to commit suicide by swallowing the pill that was sewn onto her suit in case she was captured by the Capitol during one of her missions, but Peeta stops her. Katniss is acquitted due to her apparent insanity and returns to her home in District 12, along with others who are attempting to rebuild it. Peeta returns months after as well, having largely recovered from his brainwashing. Finally, Katniss surmises that falling in love with Peeta was inevitable, as he had always represented to her the promise of a better future, rather than the destruction she now associates with Gale. She says that she did not need Gale's fire, as she already had it herself; she needed Peeta, who symbolized the hope she needed to survive. Together with Haymitch they create a book filled with the stories of the previous tributes and others who died in the war so that they will not be forgotten.
In the epilogue, Katniss speaks as an adult, more than fifteen years later. She and Peeta are married and have two children. The Hunger Games are over, but she dreads the day her children learn the details of their parents' involvement in both the Games and the war. When she feels distressed, Katniss plays a comforting but repetitive "game," reminding herself of every good thing that she has ever seen someone do. The series ends with Katniss' reflection that "there are much worse games to play."
to my opinon, the part that i really want to read is the epilogue. even in harry potter, my favourite part was the epilgue. there is a lot of beating up in those two books. my fav characters, not includeing the main characters, was Rue and Cinna. possibly Prim.
i also cant belive that prim, katniss' sister was killed alone with other childs while she was the emergency medical team. President snow was later found gulity but president coin was the master mind behind it all. i will put up the artical on wiki now so you can read it and most importantly of all, it saves me a whole lot of thinking and summarizing.
Catching Fire:
After winning the 74th Hunger Games in the previous novel, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellark return home to District 12, the poorest sector in the country of Panem. Katniss and Peeta are preparing to embark on a "Victory Tour" of Panem, but have rarely spoken since they won the Games and Peeta realized that Katniss' emotions towards him were exaggerated at their mentor Haymitch Abernathy's request. Katniss struggles to understand her feelings about Peeta, and also Gale, who kissed Katniss upon her return to District 12. The day Katniss is due to leave, the Capitol's President Snow arrives at Katniss' home and sternly warns her that she needs to convince Panem's citizens that she and Peeta are truly in love; their actions in the Games have sparked unrest across the districts and many believe their attempted suicide was actually a defiant act against the Capitol rather than sacrificing themselves for love. Snow indirectly threatens both Gale's and Katniss' families.
The Victory Tour's first stop is District 11, home to Rue, Katniss' friend and ally in the Hunger Games, before she died. During the ceremony, Katniss and Peeta deliver quick speeches to District 11, thanking its people for their tributes. Peeta offers to donate a portion of his Victory winnings to Rue's family, and also Thresh's, the other fallen District 11 tribute. When the speeches conclude, an old man whistles the tune that Rue used in the Hunger Games arena to signal Katniss she was safe. The song prompts everyone to salute Katniss with the same gesture she used to bid farewell to Rue. However, the old man is shot dead, and the Capitol refuses to let the pair make any more personal speeches during the tour. Katniss and Peeta then travel to all twelve districts and the Capitol. Katniss urges Peeta to emphasise their supposed love and, during a televised interview, Peeta proposes to Katniss. The Capitol responds by planning an elaborate wedding ceremony for the two. Despite this, Katniss learns that their attempts to subdue rebellion in the districts and convincing Snow they are in love have failed. Back in District 12, Katniss accidentally sees a secret TV report showing a violent uprising in District 8, where many citizens are killed by Peacekeepers, Panem's security force. After this event, District's 12's security is massively tightened, and the current Peacekeepers are replaced with stricter ones. Gale is whipped by the new Head Peacekeeper for hunting, and the fence surrounding District 12 is now constantly electrified, effectively barring Katniss from escape or hunting. Katniss had made it into the woods where she encountered two runaways from District 8. She offered them food, and they have a theory that District 13 was not wiped out by the Capitol and that its residents have gone underground. She is able to get over the electrified fence and back into the district, but is slightly injured.
Later, Cinna and his stylists arrive to help Katniss prepare for her bridal shoot. The stylists tell her about supply shortages across the Capitol, leading Katniss to suspect that rebellions and uprisings are spreading across Panem. President Snow announces that, for the 75th Hunger Games, as part of the "Quarter Quell", a special edition of the Games every quarter-century, tributes will be reaped from a pool of all living Victors of past Hunger Games. Being the only living female victor from District 12, Katniss is chosen for the Quarter Quell by default. When Haymitch is chosen as male tribute, Peeta volunteers in his place to protect Katniss. Desperate to prepare, the trio begin training and studying the winning tactics of past victors.
After arriving at the Capitol, Katniss and Peeta look for potential allies among the other tributes. Katniss meets Finnick Odair, a 24-year-old man who successfully survived the Games at age 14, and Mags, Finnick's 80-year-old mentor, both from District 4. She also meets Beetee and Wiress, older tributes from District 3 who are said to be "exceptionally smart" and adept at working with electronics. Beetee and Wiress tell Katniss that the Capitol leaves the control panels for their force fields in plain sight, making them vulnerable. During the training display for the Gamemakers, Peeta and Katniss show their defiance towards the Capitol and at being forced to return to the Games; Peeta paints a picture of Rue's death and Katniss hangs a training dummy, labeling it, "Seneca Crane," the previous Gamemaker who was executed after declaring both Katniss and Peeta Hunger Game victors. During the interviews, Katniss wears a bridal gown that, when she twirls, harmlessly burns away to reveal a mockingjay costume. Cinna designed this as a defiant act against the Capitol. During Peeta's interview he reveals that he and Katniss are in fact "married" and that Katniss is "pregnant". As the Games are about to begin, Katniss watches in horror as several Peacemakers arrive and beat Cinna, then drag him away.
The new Games arena is a beach and jungle terrain with the Cornucopia located on a small island in the center of a miniature sea. The arena resembles an analog clock with one lethal event occurring every hour on a twelve hour cycle. When the Games start, Katniss and Peeta form an impromptu alliance with Finnick and Mags. They search for the arena's perimeter, but Peeta runs into the force field at the edge, stopping his heart. Finnick revives him using CPR, though Peeta is weakened from the incident. At midnight, lightning strikes a nearby tree, and the next hour the Gamemakers release a poisonous fog in the group's location. The toxic fog causes nerve failure and muscle spasms which inhibits their running while Katniss tries to carry Mags and Finnick carries Peeta. Mags sacrifices herself when Katniss can no longer carry her, allowing the other three to escape. After Mags' death, the group is attacked by mutated monkeys, but all three survive, thanks to the female tribute from District 6 sacrificing herself to save Peeta. Katniss, Peeta, and Finnick join forces with Johanna Mason, a sarcastic and often cruel victor from District 7, an injured Beetee, and Wiress, who is in shock and repeatedly mumbles "tick tock." From Wiress' words, Katniss realizes that the arena is arranged like a clock, with the Gamemakers' disasters occurring on a timed chart, signaled by the lightning at 12 o'clock.
While gathered at the central Cornucopia, the Careers attack the group, killing Wiress, and a battle ensues until the Gamemakers cut it short by rapidly shifting the terrain and disorienting the Tributes. Beetee devises a plan to harness the arena's lightning to supposedly electrocute the rest of the Career tributes when they venture near the water. At night, the group splits to prepare for the plan, but is attacked separately by the remaining tributes. Katniss is knocked out and has her tracker removed by Johanna. Johanna then leads the two remaining careers away from Katniss. An injured Katniss comes across Beetee, holding a knife tied to the wire and appearing to have planned to direct the knife into the force field. Katniss directs the lightning at the force field's control panel with an arrow tied to the wire, destroying the force field and temporarily paralyzing her. When she awakens, Katniss discovers she is being transported to District 13: a place widely believed to no longer exist. She is joined by Finnick, Beetee, and Haymitch, but learns that the Capitol has captured Peeta and Johanna. Katniss is told that there had been a plan among most of the tributes, Haymitch, and Head Gamemaker Plutarch, who secretly opposes the Capitol, to break her and Peeta out of the arena. Katniss' image has become the symbol of the rebellion, which has spread to almost every district during the Games, and all the victors in the alliance were determined to sacrifice themselvs to keep Katniss alive. Finally, Katniss' best friend, Gale, informs her that, although he escaped with her family, District 12 has been bombed and destroyed.
Mockingjay:
The trilogy takes place in the post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, which occupies what used to be North America. Panem is ruled by the Capitol and is surrounded by 12 districts that provide for it. A thirteenth district had reportedly been destroyed in a rebellion against the Capitol. In the first novel, The Hunger Games, sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen volunteers to take her sister Prim's place in the 74th annual Hunger Games, a competition in which one boy and one girl from each district are chosen to fight each other to the death on live television, a punishment inflicted by the Capitol. The last tribute standing wins money and food. When told that both tributes from a district will be allowed to live if they are the last alive, Katniss and fellow District 12 tribute Peeta Mellark pretend to be in love to gain sympathy from the viewers but threaten suicide when they are the remaining two tributes and told only one is now allowed to live. This was seen as an act of rebellion against the Capitol. In Catching Fire, Katniss and Peeta are forced to compete again in a special anniversary Hunger Games consisting of tributes who have won past Games. However, before it is over, a few tributes, including Katniss, are rescued by rebels who live in District 13, while Peeta is taken to the Capitol. Katniss' friend Gale Hawthorne informs her that District 12 has been destroyed.
[edit] Synopsis
After her rescue by the rebels of District 13, Katniss is convinced to become "the Mockingjay": a symbol of the rebellion against the ruling Capitol. As part of a deal, she demands that the leader of District 13, President Coin, grant immunity to all of the victors of the Hunger Games including Peeta. She also demands the right to kill President Snow, the leader of the Capitol, herself. Finally, the leaders of Thirteen decide to go rescue Peeta, after realizing the guilt Katniss feels is impeding her role in becoming "the Mockingjay." After the rescue it is discovered that Peeta has been brainwashed into believing Katniss is the enemy and tries to strangle her upon their reunion in District 13.The rebels, including Katniss, take control of the districts and finally begin an assault on the Capitol itself. However, an assault on a "safe" Capitol neighborhood goes wrong, and Katniss and her team flee further into the Capitol with the intent of finding and killing President Snow. Many members of Katniss' team are killed through intense urban warfare, including Finnick Odair. Eventually, Katniss finds herself pressing on alone towards Snow's mansion, which has supposedly been opened to shelter Capitol children (but is actually intended to provide human shields for Snow). Afterwards, bombs placed in supply packages kill many of these children and a rebel medical team, including Katniss' sister, Prim.
President Snow is tried and found guilty, but he tells Katniss that the final assault that killed Prim was ordered by President Coin. Katniss realizes that if this is true, the bombing may have been the result of a plan originally developed by Gale, however, Gale denied his involvement. Katniss remembers a conversation with Snow, following the 74th Annual Hunger Games, in which they agreed not to lie to each other. When she is supposed to execute Snow, she realizes that he was telling the truth and kills Coin instead. A riot ensues and Snow is found dead, having possibly choked on his own blood (laughing) or been trampled in the crowd. Katniss then tries to commit suicide by swallowing the pill that was sewn onto her suit in case she was captured by the Capitol during one of her missions, but Peeta stops her. Katniss is acquitted due to her apparent insanity and returns to her home in District 12, along with others who are attempting to rebuild it. Peeta returns months after as well, having largely recovered from his brainwashing. Finally, Katniss surmises that falling in love with Peeta was inevitable, as he had always represented to her the promise of a better future, rather than the destruction she now associates with Gale. She says that she did not need Gale's fire, as she already had it herself; she needed Peeta, who symbolized the hope she needed to survive. Together with Haymitch they create a book filled with the stories of the previous tributes and others who died in the war so that they will not be forgotten.

Chapter three: The Mastermind
Valick Vesuvius arrived at a broken down collage. it was broken down 50 years ago because of the countless murder of the students. and of coruse, they found who did it and executed him. now nobody would go there because rumor has it that the ghost of dead students is haunting everyone who enteres. so nobody bothered to repair it into something else.
Vesuvius entered the collage and waited in a room seems like the main buliding. After 20 mins later, a man entered the building and stayed in the shadows. he spoke like he got a bad throat and the sound is so unpleasant, it can even make the furniture come alive and complain.
"have you got it?"
"Nearly, my master. but the defence is so strong, i cant get past them my self."
"i can give you an army of Macaleen man to help you."
"thank you master. i shall be going. where should i meet with the Macaleen mans?"
"In the park at 2o'clock in the morning tomorrow."
"will I have any help from anyone else?"
"Yes."answered the old mysterious man. "I'll be helping and a man would be helping with some parts of it. But you don't need to worry about him. I'll be helping."
"you?"smirked Vesuvius. "how are you going to help, old man? Shouting at them with your creaky old voice?"
"Hey! Watch what you say because I can kill you as easily as I decided to join you with being the council down."
"ok ok ok. Fine. I'm sorry. So, I'll meet with them tomorrow at 2:00am?"
"yes. It's a good thing that at least you have a cell on your brain to remember stuff."
"Shut up old man or I'll smash this-" She looked around, found a piece of broken down vase and hold it up. "in your face!"
"Oh, so your threatening me now, are you?"
"Yeah, I am. So what?"
"So you better watch what you say or you never know when I'm going to put a bullet through your brain or a knife through the heart."
"Alright, alright!" Valick threw her hands up in mock defeat. "I'm sorry, your highness, I'll just walk out of here and nothing has happened. But still send those Macaleen Mans! Cherrio!!
'the concil is going down' she thought. and that thought bought a grin on her face.
*sigh* 'That girl never learns. It's a good thing she's only 11yrs other wise she'll be dead by now.' he thought.

Chapter two: back to 4 hours earlier
This is what happened 4 hours earlier before Valkyrie find out the huge secret:
Valkyrie and Skulduggery was chasing the Mazda MPV car in their Bentley. The Bentley was catching up to the Mazda, suddenly, it swerved into a small hidden road, and Skulduggery has to work on the wheel very hard to avioed hitting the buildings and of coures he wouldnt let the bentley hit it. The Mazda turned into another road and nearly crashed but it rocked back on to four wheels. then it stoped abrutly, to avoied hitting the wall at the end of the road.
it was a dead end. the driver came out. it was Valick Vesuvius. a crazy, mad killer woman. She stood in the center of the road, holding a black cylinder tube. She got beautiful golden hair, her eyes is light blue. She is a very beautiful woman, except for the murderous part of her. the bentley came to a halt. Skulduggery and Valkyrie came out and Skulduggery was aming his gun at her head. "put the bomb down, now and surrender." Skulduggery said. " you are under arrest for attempt murdering, mudering, stealing, littering, and asullt on Sanctutary agents."
" like i care! if u dont put that gun down, i will drop the bomb and you guys will be history!"
"please Valick,"begged valkyrie, "dont do this, i know that you still have a heart underneath you,all you need to do is to find it. just give yourself in and it wont be such a long jail time, trust me."
"acturally, it's 80 years of jail time. it's pretty long."
"shut up Skulduggery!"
"no" said Valick and she jumped the wall.
"dammit, Valkyrie, you try to climb over and i'll drive the bentley to try and stop her."
"why do i have to run after her when you can drive?"
"because i have a face to represent and i couldnt aford to get mud on my brand new suit! anyway, i dont trust you with the bentley."
"oh shut up and start chasing her! she is probably already very far away!"
"right sorry."
Skulduggery got into the bentley and Valkyrie started climbing the wall. when she got to the other side, she looked around for Valick and saw her shadow running into the bushes. she chased after her, in and out of the shadows. she saw a clearing up ahead and run harder. then she stoped suddenly and started running backwards as quickly as she can. it was not Valick but a fake model fo her and the bomb is sitting next to the model. it got 2 seconds left and BOOM! she crashed back.

chapter one: truth reveled.
Valkyrie kneed the woman in the gut, and she doubled over in pain. Valkyrie pressed in and was too late to twist out of the way when she saw it was a fake. The woman socked Valkyrie on the nose and both of them heard the bone crack. Blood poured out of her nose.
The woman swung her arm in an arch and hit Valkyrie on the neck. She tumbled on the floor. She twisted out of the way right before the woman stomped on her stomach. Valkyrie rolled up to her feet, lashed out a kick of her own. The woman reacted really fast and grabbed Valkyrie's feet in mid kick and pulled. Valkyrie's feet flew out from under her. Valkyrie's head hit the floor and stars flew behind her eyelid. She lifted one hand to push at the air. It wasn't a really good one but the woman's feet still flew out and she went sprawling. Valkyrie didn't waste one second to hesitate. She rolled up again, ignoring the bad headache thumping in her ear, and send a fistful of shadows down at the woman but the woman rolled out of the way in the last second. Valkyrie sent another fistful of shadows at the woman and this time she wasn't so lucky. The woman got hit in the chest and she bent over, gagging for air. Her robs are broken because she is holding her chest. After a few moments, the woman stopped moving and Valkyrie thought the woman had fainted. She looked around for Skulduggery to help her carry the woman's body. Then she felt hot and sticky stuff oozing out of her foot and a sharp sting came. Valkyrie wobbled on her foot. She stumbled backwards and tripped over a rock and fell on the knife the woman was holding upwards. It stabbed down on to Valkyrie's thigh and she screamed. Blood oozing out of the wind and trickled down the knife. The woman pulled the knife out harshly, and Valkyrie gave out a new scream of pain. And the woman stabbed on to Valkyrie's lower leg. She gave out another scream. She jerked out of the knife and rolled away before more stabbing from the woman. Valkyrie was panting hard from the pain and sweats came rolling down her forehead. Valkyrie tried to move but the instant she moved her muscles, in tightened and all the muscles twisted together and Valkyrie cried out again. The woman walked closer, holding a black cylinder with a red button which was beeping. It's already activated.
Valkyrie swng her leg up and kicked in the air. one foot landed on the woman's shin and she fell down. The black cylinder rolled out of her hand. Valkyrie scrambled up and tried to reach for the cylinder but there was someone pulling at the back. It was the woman. She grabed Valkyrie's feet and tugged. Valkyrie fell face first on the floor. They both scrambled up at the same time but the woman was the first to reach it.

Sudden quietness.......
BOOM! The bomb exploded and Valkyrie flew away in to the sky. she landed painfuly on her back and lay on the ground. the last thing she saw before clouded darkness was Skulduggery running towards her and carried her into the bentley.
Valkyrie woke up in Skulduggery's bed. with a groan, and felt all her muscles still tense from the stab and cuts. But all the wounds are healed. She didn't know how but it happened. She sat up on the bed. She looked around, and didn't see anyone except for a note. it was by Skulduggery. It says:
Dear Valkyrie, I'm going to look for the nice woman who set that bomb. I will be back in about two hours. There is food in the cupboard. You can make your self a snake. Love, Skulduggery.
Valkyrie put the note down and had a proper look around his bedroom. She had never been in here before. She found a book on the table, lying open. It looks like some sort of journal. she peered at it. 'No,' she thought 'I shouldn't look at other people's diary. but if i do, it might make us work even better than now.' So she peered at it again. after reading it for five minutes, she suddenly gasped and stood up. "No, no, this cant be true! this can NOT be true!" she gasped.
This was what had written on the Journal: Her eyes is a gorgeous brown, her dark and lovely hair is so pretty when the wind blows. when she had been with Fletcher, he had envyed him but he must not be in love with her other wise it might be bad for the investigation. but i have to tell her. i dont love her just as her best friend or just her patner but i've had loved her. Valkyrei had grown into a beautiful, nice young women. i really wish she would know that i love her.
Valkyrie dont know weither to laugh or to cry or to worry. she had got a little crush on him but.........
Tears swelled up in her. she heard the front door open and she wiped her eyes and closed the diary.she opened the door and went out to meet Skulduggery.
The woman swung her arm in an arch and hit Valkyrie on the neck. She tumbled on the floor. She twisted out of the way right before the woman stomped on her stomach.

Dear Valkyrie, I'm going to look for the nice woman who set that bomb. I will be back in about two hours. There is food in the cupboard. You can make your self a snake. Love, Skulduggery.
Valkyrie put the note down and had a proper look around his bedroom. She had never been in here before. She found a book on the table, lying open. It looks like some sort of journal. she peered at it. 'No,' she thought 'I shouldn't look at other people's diary. but if i do, it might make us work even better than now.' So she peered at it again. after reading it for five minutes, she suddenly gasped and stood up. "No, no, this cant be true! this can NOT be true!" she gasped.
This was what had written on the Journal: Her eyes is a gorgeous brown, her dark and lovely hair is so pretty when the wind blows. when she had been with Fletcher, he had envyed him but he must not be in love with her other wise it might be bad for the investigation. but i have to tell her. i dont love her just as her best friend or just her patner but i've had loved her. Valkyrei had grown into a beautiful, nice young women. i really wish she would know that i love her.
Valkyrie dont know weither to laugh or to cry or to worry. she had got a little crush on him but.........
Tears swelled up in her. she heard the front door open and she wiped her eyes and closed the diary.she opened the door and went out to meet Skulduggery.
