Watching Cato being mauled by those dogs was hard, I had to kill him Cato, it felt like the right thing to do. But now only Peeta and I stand here ready to win, together. We wait for the hovercraft to come for Cato's body. We waited for 15 minutes standing there. Waiting. But once we moved about 30 meters away the hovercraft came and picked up the residue of what was once Cato. The only body part I can make out is the head with the gaping hole right between the eyes where only 15 minutes ago I ended his life. I couldn't help but feel his cold barren eyes digging into my skull as I say my silent goodbye to him in my head.
I turn around to see Peeta staring at me tears of joy in his eyes. I'm about to say something but I am interrupted by the booming voice of Claudius Templesmith. I expect to hear him say: "congratulations, Katniss Everdeen and Peeta Mellmark You have won the 74th annual Hunger Games!" but what comes out of his mouth fills me with fear. "The rule of two winners from the same district has been over ruled by the game makers, There may only be one winner!" I turn to Peeta, anger and hate fills his eyes. He just stands there, looking at me. I move to him slowly his warm but tormented arms wrap around my small but strong body and whispers these final words too me " Katniss, I love you. You have more to live for then I do, you have your mother, Prim, Gale and all of your other friends." Peeta lets go of me and slowly starts to walk away. "Peeta I scream! You can't do this I love you! Don't leave me!" but its too late Peeta walked over to the cornucopia and picked up the knife that Cato attempted to kill the dogs with. "Peeta NO!" I scream sprinting over to him as fast as I can. Peeta raises the knife to his heart and plunges right through himself, falling to the ground. "PEETA!" I shriek! " No no this cant happen you were supposed to live not me…" I half mumble half sob into his right side of his chest. "Katniss." Peeta says in a struggling voice. "I love you. I always have." "I love you too" I softly say to him, on my knees. What I do next just feels right. I sit Peeta up so that his back is resting on the lip of the cornucopia and I kiss him. I have my eyes closed but I can feel the tears running down my face onto his. I feel his body go limp and I hear his cannon blast go off. I give him one last hug and a kiss on the fore head and walk away. I see the hovercraft pick up Peeta's body and take him home, back to district 12. I hear the trumpets blare and the voice of Claudius Templesmith saying I have just won the 74th annual Hunger Games.
Can you really win The Hunger Games? No I say in my head. No you cannot.
