they are the hunters, we are the foxes - and we run

Sometimes, these things happen. Sometimes, you're in just the wrong place at just the right time, or you've made the wrong (or right, depending on your intentions) person mad. Sometimes it's better for everyone if you just go. Sometimes there isn't time for good-bye.
You've managed to lose yourself somewhere out there, for whatever reason it was. Maybe you took someone with you (willingly? not?), or you found someone else who needed to disappear as badly as you did. You're in your car, or a cheap hotel, or a house by the side of the road. What else can you do but watch, and wait?
It could have been as simple as being glimpsed at the 7-11. Your phoneline wasn't as secure as you thought. You locked eyes with the wrong person across the room. Now the house of cards is collapsing, and maybe not just your life, but the lives of everyone you love could be in jeopardy now. The walls are closing in, and your arms are giving out.

Still, one must expand horizons and Annie knows that she ought to orient herself with this complex. She hums under her breath, running her fingers along the smooth, curved walls, lifting her hand only whenever she passes a door or a person, not wanting to initiate physical contact with anyone else just yet. Her eyes are wide and she greets people with a gently, shy smile upon passing, her hair in her face, her feet bare on the cold, metal floor. It's too cold, but if she keeps moving, she'll stay warm.
Hearing a voice, a voice she can place, that she has heard many times before, she pauses, holding her breath. Her heart seems to stop because she knows that voice. Seconds pass before she eventually peeks around the corner, first just her eyes and her hair appearing before eventually revealing herself, lifting a hand. ]
Me. Hello.

He smiles, reflexively. The one that pleases crowds and puts people at ease. He used to be able to do it whenever he wanted, as easy as flipping a switch. Now it works on its own, coming through like the weather at its own whim.]
Thank goodness. I thought I was going to die alone down here.

Peeta Mellark. [ She isn't especially assuaged by his smile, but she still returns it in kind, her own more genuine, despite her tentativeness. ]
Don't know where I am either. We should go back to the clinic, you and I.
