What happens in chapter 13 of the Hunger Games?

35
Summary: Chapter 13
Katniss runs from the fire. It is so large that she knows it was the Gamemakers, not the tributes, who started it. They probably thought the audience was getting bored. She is choking on the smoke and begins to vomit uncontrollably, and just as she's recovering, a fireball explodes nearby.


Herein, what happens in chapter 12 of the Hunger Games?

Summary: Chapter 12 Katniss is shocked that Peeta joined the Careers. She sees he is badly bruised and realizes he must have fought at the Cornucopia. They wonder why Katniss scored an eleven in training, and as Peeta returns Katniss realizes he hasn't told them about her skill with a bow.

Also, what happens after Rue died in the hunger games? Before she leaves, she makes District 12's gesture of farewell to Rue. After Rue dies in the film, a rebellion starts in District 11, where the citizens have a small uprising to avenge Rue's death, her being from their district and being so young to be forced into the Games.

Similarly, it is asked, what wakes katniss up Chapter 13?

She falls asleep and wakes to the sound of the approaching Careers, then runs to a tree and climbs to get out of their reach. The five Careers and Peeta trap her in the tree, and Katniss sees that Glimmer, the girl tribute from District 1, has the bow and arrows she saw at the Cornucopia.

How does Katniss destroy the supplies?

Katniss aims for a hanging bag of apples, and with her third arrow gets them to tumble free, setting off a chain of explosions that destroys most of the Careers' supplies and sends her flying backward.
