Suspects' Holding Cell
The vans drive for what seems like an hour before they come to a stop, and Peacekeepers blindfold and forcefully drag even the most cooperative suspects into a building.
The suspects are all held in one cell, a large, metal room with a thick door and a single ledge that serves as a bench. Bright fluorescent lights beam from overhead. There are no windows and no clocks, no sign of where they might be.
The Peacekeepers take off the blindfolds, though without much care for whether they come off all the way or chafe or stay slung around the suspects' necks. The suspects' hands are left cuffed behind their backs, and even the most ingenious of them won't be able to pick the lock on their restraints, but they're otherwise left to roam freely through the space.
Suspects are removed, one at a time, at unpredictable intervals, by Peacekeepers armed with tasers. Some take three hours to return, while others are back within only a minute. Each of them comes back having been clearly roughed up and pressed for information that they may or may not hold; some are bleeding or sporting the beginnings of black eyes.
They'll be sleeping here tonight.

So she had faith in you Carlos. Don't let her down.

...that sounded a little Buddhist. But as religions went, Buddhism was a good one.
Her words also reminded him of another young girl he'd encountered once or twice. Hadn't Tamika Flynn been about Mindy's age? It just went to show that you couldn't underestimate the inner strength of preteen girls. Or the outer strength.
Carlos gave her a nod. He had done enough lying in the Capitol. He wouldn't let them make him lie here.
