[The shout comes from within the first floor bedroom, the door hanging ajar. The room had once been solely hers, back when Rue lived here, too. The first line of defense. Were someone to break in, she'd be the first to know. The first to deal with the intruder before he or she reached Peeta and Rue on the second floor. But now, her bedroom had become Peeta's, too. Rue's room sat empty and Peeta's old bedroom a studio for his painting work.
She doesn't get up from her chair at Rapunzel's voice, though Buttercup does come investigating. Katniss remains seated by Peeta's side. The light in the room is dim but the mural stretching all four walls is still clear when the girl enters. The painting Peeta had started on her birthday has been long complete: the forest green background now has trees scattered through out with the snaking vines of primrose connecting bed and windows, corners and door.
