Hey Guys. This was just an idea that i had while listening to Starring Role by Marina and the Diamonds while trying to sleep. I got this idea and got up and wrote it. So much for sleeping. This is my first try at Hunger Games fanfiction so i hope you like it. On that note reviews would be extremely helpful.
This is completely unbeta-ed so all mistakes are mine.
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the wonderful Hunger Games characters or Starring Role by Marina and the Diamonds.
He started running towards her.
I should never have let her go without me. How could I have been so stupid? His only goal was to protect her and make sure she came out of the arena alive and now Enobaria is after her. He might as well have failed already.
When he heard the line snap, he broke out into a flat out sprint.
you're hard to hug, tough to talk to
and i never fall asleep, when you're in my bed
all you give me is a heartbeat
i've turned into a statue
and it makes me feel depressed
cause the only time you open up is when we get undressed
He hears her yell out his name. There was pain in her voice.
you don't love me, big fucking deal
i'll never tell, you how i feel
you don't love me, not a big deal
i'll never tell you how i feel
He can't make his legs move any faster. He could once but now…
She was yelling his name, why?
He figured out what she was doing.
No, she wouldn't. She only wanted to get out alive. She is drawing them too her. She is taking the fight away from everyone else and bringing it to her. Something must have happened bad enough that she would willing fight,
Kill.
it almost feels like a joke to play out the part
when you are not the starring role in someone else's heart
you know i'd rather walk alone, than play a supporting role
if i can't get the starring role.
The canon fired. He was having troubles running on his leg and he was still weak from the force field.
She can't be dead. She wouldn't let herself die. She wouldn't give up. She wouldn't leave Prim like this, or her mom, or… Gale. What about me? Could she leave me like this? After everything that we have been through does she still just want nothing to do with me? Was calling them all to her a suicide mission?
Another canon fired. His heart sunk to his feet but he kept pushing.
sometimes i ignore you so i feel in control
cause really, i adore you, and i can't leave you alone
fed up with the fantasies, they cover what is wrong
come on, baby, let's just, get drunk, forget we don't get on
you like my dad, you get on well
i send my best, regards from hell
He ran into something that wasn't there before. A new force field. The Capitol. He was thrown backwards to the ground. His head whipped back and hit something hard. He was swimming on the edge of consciousness.
The he saw her. She was being taken in the big metal claw from his nightmares. She was finally being taken away from him. The Capitol has her in their clutches.
He drank in the image of her. This was going to be the last time he saw her after all.

i never sent for love, i never had a heart to mend
because before the start began, i always saw the end
Johanna burst through the trees.
She was here to finish him off. If Katniss was gone, then there was nothing left here for him. He is going to let her kill him. If he was going to die, at least he will still be himself. He will die with the image of Katniss burned into his mind.
He won't die tainted by The Capitol. She will be the last thing that he sees.
yeah, i wait for you to open up, to give yourself to me
but nothing's ever gonna give, i'll never set you free
yeah i'll never set you free

He closed his eyes and braced for the killing blow. It never came.
He opened his eyes.
There was a fast whizzing sound past his ear. Johanna fell to the ground. She struggled for a few seconds before her eyes closed and she stopped moving.
The Capitol.
After everything, they couldn't just let them die here alone? No, The Capitol wasn't finished with them, they still had an image to uphold. The Capitol still wanted something from them, even if it was their life.
There was another whizzing sound then a pinch.
They got him.
He tried to stay awake, but was failing. He thought of Katniss.
As he had promised himself only moments before, she was the last thing he saw. He failed. He failed to save her. He imagined her smile.
There was nothing left but blackness.
the starring role
Reviews would be definitely very extremely helpful :)
