[when the video opens, it's to chaos-- beautiful, ornate mansions ring around an open central area that's absolutely packed with confused, frightened people; most are dressed in finery (or more than finery-- a significant number have outlandish outfits, tattooed or dyed skin, and brightly-colored hair), but it's obvious that, at least for the moment, they aren't very well-off]
[there's also a concrete barricade (guarded by the white-suited Capitol police and District Peacekeepers that some might recognize from earlier videos) surrounding the most impressive building of them all, a huge mansion-- and within that barricade, all the refugees happen to be children]
[the insanity increases when armed guards break through the crowds, pushing aside citizens and attempting to storm the mansion; next hovercraft appears in the sky, raining down silver parachutes on the barricaded children]
[they reach for the packages, carrying them in their arms and attempting to tear them open... and then suddenly, a couple dozen of the parachutes explode, killing or severely wounding those who had been holding them]
[at this, their guards immediately step aside, making way for a swarm of medics-- Prim among them]
[despite this being more danger than they had assumed they'd be facing, not a single one of them shies back or tries to run away-- even Prim, the thirteen-year-old who wants nothing more than to live a quiet, uneventful life, doesn't hesitate to run forward to the nearest wounded child and begin treating them as best she can]
[anyone who knows anything about terrorism (specifically, the tactic of sending out one wave of attacks, and then following it with a second to take out the first responders) might know what's coming next: and indeed, the rebel medics have been behind the barricade for less than thirty seconds when the rest of the parachutes explode, blowing absolutely everyone to pieces]
