Gale again. His thoughts at the end of the 74th Hunger Games.

Kill him.
His thoughts seemed to echo loudly in his head. He couldn't think, his mind was blank. Wiped clean by the words the Capitol had just broadcast across Panem. "The earlier revision has been revoked. Closer examination of the rule book has disclosed that only one winner may be allowed. Good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favour."
Kill him, Katniss.
She was so close, yet so far. Just one more and she's home. One more and she's safe. But this one is different. He is from District 12, not 1. Not a Career. He's from home, and home has always been important to Katniss no matter how much she hates it.
Kill him, please.
She would never forgive herself if she was in her right mind, if she died now. She gave Prim the hope that she would get her sister back alive. Leaving prim just as she needed her big sister the most, just beginning the trials of the reaping years. Leaving me.
Kill him.
The mantra repeating inside of his head changes dramatically as she holds up the berries in some sort of twisted sacrifice. No matter what happened now, it really would take a miracle to
Save her.
