Summary:

Our sixty second countdown has rounded down to the tens. A voice comes onto an intercom to relay the counts to us. Ten. I position myself to dive into the steadily rising water. Nine. I can see you have done the same. Eight. The water is nearly lapping at my feet. Seven. I’m getting a little bored. Sure, the intensity of the countdown sends adrenaline shooting through me, but a countdown from five would have done just the same. I’m busy complaining for the seven to four counts. Hearing the three snaps me out of it. Three. I glance over at you and you’re gesturing angrily at me. I interpret it as “Ginger! You idiot! Focus!”

You should definitely make one for Mockingjay, because Mockingjay wasn't nearly as good as the other two, so it would make a great parody. My family was giving me weird looks as I read this, because I was laughing so hard.

This is brilliant! I loved it, and my family was giving me weird looks as I read it, because I couldn't stop laughing. I read your sequel, too, and they were both hilarious! :D
