Main article: Mockingjay Mockingjay centres around the districts rebellion against the Capitol. It is revealed that District 13 did survive The Dark Days by living underground and is led by President Alma Coin. Katniss, after being brought to 13, agrees to become the Mockingjay to recruit more rebels from the districts. However, she makes conditions that Peeta, Johanna Mason, Annie Cresta, and Enobaria, victims captured by the Capitol, would not be seen as traitors and a condition where Katniss would be able to kill Snow as an act of vengeance if the rebels won. In the novel, it is revealed that Peeta has been hijacked (a form of brainwashing using Tracker Jacker venom) to hate Katniss. He tries to choke her to death upon their reunion. After her healing, Katniss and a team known as the Squad, consisting of Gale, Peeta, Finnick, camera crew, and various other soldiers, embark on a mission to go to the Capitol to kill Snow, thus winning the rebellion. Throughout their mission, many members of the Squad die in various ways, including just-married Finnick. Towards the end of the book as Katniss approaches Snows mansion, she sees a group of Capitol children protecting the entrance to the mansion as a shield and suddenly a Capitol hovercraft drops bombs, killing the children. However, the rebels send in medics, including Prim. An unexploded bomb goes off killing Prim instantly as soon as she notices her sister. Katniss, also injured, wakes up after being in a coma to hear that the Rebels have won and Snow is awaiting execution, which Katniss aims to do. After a meeting with Snow, Katniss finds out that it was in fact the rebels, led by Coin, who killed Prim as they hijacked a Capitol hovercraft. At Snows execution, Katniss instead shoots Coin as an act of vengeance for her sister and Snow dies by choking on his own blood while laughing. This leads to Katnisss prosecution but she is deemed innocent as the jury believed she was not in a fit mental state. In the end, Katnisss mother and Gale both take jobs in different districts. Katniss and Peeta eventually marry and have a son and a daughter. dasd
