Summary of Hunger games
Chapter 11 :
Katniss sees a bow and arrow but misses her chance to take them. Grabbing a nearby sheet of plastic and loaf of bread, she sprints for an orange backpack.
The cannon fires eleven times; that means eleven are dead. Thirteen contestants are left.
Katniss must find water .
Chapter 12 :
Peeta is now with the Career Tributes.
Katniss understands that the others say that they're basically using Peeta to find her.
She is becoming dehydrated. On the verge of collapse, she finds water in mud. And mud? Mud means WATER.Crawling through the mud, Katniss finds a pond filled with water lilies.
A few hours later, however, she wakes up to the sound of a stampede. It's a wall of fire descending on her.
Chapter 13
Katniss realizes that the fire is no accident: it must be a ploy by the Gamemakers to flush out the scattered tributes and bring them all together.
She runs and then her right calf gets scorched. She figures the Gamemakers are having a nice big laugh about "the girl who was on fire.
The attack overs.
Katniss climbs up a tree. The pack of Career Tributes (including Peeta!) has her cornered.
The career tributes try to shoot her.
Katniss settles down for the night. That's when she notices a pair of eyes in a neighboring tree. A possum? No. Katniss realizes it's the little girl from District 11: Rue.
Chapter 14 :
Katniss sees Rue pointing to something above Katniss's head: a tracker jacker nest! it's a few stings make you hallucinate like crazy
She cut the branch holding the nest and drop it on the pack of Career Tributes.The nest crashes to the ground, and immediately Katniss gets three stings. She takes out the stingers.
During the attack with nests ,Peeta has saved the life of Katniss.
She discovers Rue.She gives her some food and Rue treats Katniss's burns with some leaves she's carrying.
The two form an alliance and they decide to made a plan to destroy the food of the Career Tributes .
Chapter 15 :
Katniss falls asleep, but is jolted awake by the shot of the cannon. Another tribute down.
. Rue tells Katniss that the Career Tributes have their base down by the lake and that the food stash is right out in the open and guarded by only one person: the boy from District 3.
This is all very interesting to Katniss. They must have it rigged somehow.
As the girls forage for food, Katniss learns more about Rue: she is the oldest of six kids and loves music more than anything else in the world.
Rue sings with the mockingjays in her district, who carry musical messages for her and spread them around the orchard. Like when it's quitting time for the workers.
Katniss tries to give Rue her mockingjay pin, but Rue says no. She has her own token, a grass necklace with a charm.
Rue teaches Katniss the mockingjay signal. If she hears it from the birds, she'll know that Rue is OK.
The first part: Katniss is going to spy on the Career Tributes at their base from a copse at the edge of the woods.
She does this. There are four tributes at the base: a boy from District 1, Cato, a girl from District 2, and a guy from District 3. The supplies have been put in a pyramid far away from the camp.
Katniss finds this all kind of puzzling. What is protecting the pyramid of supplies? Must be booby-trapped.
Now, the second part of the plan gets underway (you knew there was a second part, right?): Rue sets a fire some distance off to lure the Career Tributes away from the camp.
They take the bait and head for the smoke, leaving the camp empty. As they head out, Katniss hears Cato say that Peeta, a.k.a. "Lover Boy" (16.60), is probably hiding in the woods somewhere but is too wounded to be a threat to the supplies.
Katniss tries to figure out what to do – shoot an arrow into the supplies – when another tribute appears: the fox faced girl. She runs an intricate path around and then up to the pyramid, fills her pack, and then – doing the same weird dance – runs away.
That's when Katniss figures it out: there are landmines around the pyramid. The tribute from District 3 is from a factory region and must know how to use explosives. She guesses he got the mines from the ones that were used in the arena by the Gamemakers on the first day. He must have reactivated them.
Katniss sees Rue's second fire and knows her time is running out. That's when she sees a bag of apples and knows that if she shoots it, the whole thing will fall and set off the mines.
Three arrows later, the apples are spilling, the mines are exploding, and Katniss is blown back into the air.
Chapter 16:
Katniss is contemplative: she's happy to be teaming up with Rue, but knows in the back of her mind that both can't survive. She's also excited about the plan they're forming to take the Career Tribute's food.
Katniss falls asleep, but is jolted awake by the shot of the cannon. Another tribute down.
Rue tells Katniss that the Career Tributes have their base down by the lake and that the food stash is right out in the open and guarded by only one person: the boy from District 3.
As the girls forage for food, Katniss learns more about Rue: she is the oldest of six kids and loves music more than anything else in the world.
Rue teaches Katniss the mockingjay signal. If she hears it from the birds, she'll know that Rue is OK. Rue hugs Katniss and the two part ways to execute the plan.
What's the plan, you ask? OK, OK, fine. The first part: Katniss is going to spy on the Career Tributes at their base from a copse at the edge of the woods.
She does this. There are four tributes at the base: a boy from District 1, Cato, a girl from District 2, and a guy from District 3. The supplies have been put in a pyramid far away from the camp.

Chapter 17 :
The pyramid is blown to bits, but escape proves difficult: Katniss is dizzy and wobbly and can't hear in her ears (one of which is bleeding).
With explosions still going off, Katniss manages to drag herself back into the bushes of the copse when the Career Tributes return.
Cato throws a massive tantrum and snaps the neck of the boy from District 3. Seriously. The other tributes are pointing to the sky when Katniss realizes that they must think whoever set off the explosion is dead.
The Career Tributes head out to hunt the bomber, but Katniss stays right where she is. She puts on her night vision glasses and eats some food. She thinks about the eight remaining players and drifts off to sleep freezing in the cold with no sleeping bag.
Katniss wakes to the sound of a laugh (she must be regaining at least a little hearing): it's Foxface, who has managed to scavenge through the rubble of the pyramid for some supplies.
Katniss thinks about either enlisting her help or killing her, but before she can do either Foxface runs away.
Katniss heads back to the meeting point, but Rue is not there. She scales a tree and waits for her. Growing impatient, Katniss decides to head to the spot where Rue was to set the third fire.
There's no Rue there, and the firewood has not been set. Something has gone wrong.
Where is she? If she had died there would have been a canon shot. Katniss decides to find her. All of a sudden she hears Rue's signal from a mockingjay. That must mean she's alive and OK!
Katniss starts to follow the bird when she hears a girl scream. It's Rue. Is it a trap? Katniss breaks into the clearing where the scream came from and sees Rue caught in a net.
Rue calls Katniss's name and then suddenly, a spear is run through Rue. (Everybody: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!)
Chapter 18:
Before Rue's attacker (the boy from District 1) can pull out the spear, Katniss shoots him dead with an arrow
The dying Rue takes Katniss's hand and tells her she has to win. She asks Katniss to sing to her. Grab your hankies, 'cause Katniss sings a simple lullaby about meadows and a willow tree from her district.
Rue's cannon fires, and Katniss cries. She remembers Gale's ranting about the Capitol and the injustice of what they do. She remembers Peeta's words too about how he didn't want the Capitol to own him.
Katniss decides to do the only thing she can: she gathers lots of beautiful wildflowers and decorates Rue's body with them – to show the world Rue is not just there for their entertainment. She is a person.
As Katniss walks away, she hears a mockingjay singing Rue's song. Now Rue really is safe, Katniss thinks. A parachute lands in front of Katniss and it's a small loaf of bread. It comes from District 11, Rue's home.
Katniss thanks the people of District 11 out loud. She climbs up a tree and eats the bread and sleeps.
Katniss climbs a tree and settles in for the night. She realizes that Rue's attacker was her actual first kill.
After the anthem, the Hunger Games announcer, Claudius Templesmith's voice booms out, congratulating the six remaining players.
Then he drops a bombshell: a rule change! He declares that the last TWO tributes alive will be the winners this year.
WHAT?! Before she can stop herself, Katniss yells out Peeta's name.
Chapter 19:
She realizes the Gamemakers must have changed the rules because they wanted to play up the star-crossed lovers thing. Peeta must have been working this angle all along, she decides.
She smiles so the camera can see.
OK, so who is left? Foxface, whose fellow tribute is dead. Thresh, who is from Rue's district. And then Cato and the girl from District 2. They'll be teaming up for sure.
In the morning Katniss sets out to find Peeta. Where would he be? Probably the stream.
Katniss follows the stream until she finds some bloodstains. She calls out Peeta's name and then suddenly she hears a voice: "You hear to finish me off, sweetheart?
It's Peeta and he's camouflaged like crazy in the mud and leaves of the stream bank. That must have been one of his skills. He's also wounded VERY badly.
Katniss starts to help him out of the mud when Peeta whispers to her that they're supposed to be in love so it's OK for her to kiss him. Katniss laughs.
Katniss washes Peeta off and then tends to his wounds. She digs out the tracker jacker stingers and applies the leaves like Rue did for her. Next, she applies the burn cream and then fever reducer.
Then? The wound Cato gave him in his legs. It looks terrible. What to do? She uses some of the leaves to draw the pus out, then ointment and bandages.
Peeta hasn't gotten anything from the sponsors. Peeta comments that Haymitch favors her – because they're just alike.
Realizing Peeta can't move very far, Katniss constructs a shelter from some of the cave-like rocks, which she camouflages.
Peeta is burning with fever and when he starts talking about not making it, Katniss gives him a kiss to shut him up. It works.
She steps out of the cave for a moment and what does she see? A pot of hot broth. The message from Haymitch: romance = sponsors. More kissing!
Katniss comes back to the cave ready for romance. She kisses the sleeping Peeta awake and shows him the broth.
