Mockingjay, pgs 315-347

Inside the women's apartment they find nobody else. Katniss and her group know that they have to keep moving so that they wont be found. They look outside and see that they have entered deeper into the Capitol and people are walking through the streets. After looking through the closets and finding disguises to wear they blend in with the crowd of people. While walking through the streets sirens go off and people are warned to look out for Katniss and her group of soldiers.

One person in the group, Cressida, is familiar with the Capitol and leads them to a fur store where she knows they can stay hidden. The worker of the store is a former stylist for the Hunger Games and is willing to help in destroying the Captiol. For a couple days the soldiers hide in the basement of the store while the rebels work to take over the city. Refugees of the Capitol in different parts of the city flood into the main section of the city looking for shelter since it is very cold outside. At this point Katniss is only four blocks from Snow's mansion. They realize they need to get out of the store and all put disguises back on and work their way toward the City Circle where Snow's mansion is located.

As they walk towards the mansion rebels appear on the roof top and begin to shot at the crowd of people. In the chaos Katniss and Gale try to escape and experience many different challenges to survive. When they break into a building some soldiers of the Captiol are able to capture and take Gale while Katniss is able to escape. Katniss finally works her way back with the crowd of people and to the front of Snow's mansion. In front of the mansion kids are collected into a group and bombs go off. Rebel medics run in to save the injured childeren and Katniss sees a girl that she describes as her sister. All of a sudden more bombs go off.

This could be horrible if it is actually Katniss's sister because she loves her sister and would die for her. I was right that Katniss would end up all alone on her mission to kill Snow and I still believe that she will be able to kill Snow. In the last 40+ pages this is what I predict will happen, Katniss will end up having no choice but to sacrifice her self to the Capitol because there is no other way to reach Snow. Snow will end showing himself to the public to humiliate Katniss and Petta will show up to either kill Snow or help Katniss escape.
