Katniss P.O.V.
*Takes place the morning after Peeta plants the primroses*
"Prim!" I keep trying to get closer to her and warn her of the bombs that are soon to come to claim her, but it seems she gets even farther away from me as I am running towards her. She finally seems to notice I'm running to her, but it's to late because when she sees me her entire body is engulfed in flames. At that moment my body freezes in place as I watch Prim burn to ashes in front of my eyes. I try to yell to her but my voice just cracks, not at all audible. Then I hear the click of a weapon and President Snow's evil laugh. Then he says, "Oh, Katniss. I thought we promised not to lie to each other." I scream at the sudden piercing pain in my left shoulder blade. I fall to the ground, my whole body already covered in blood. As my sight starts to go darker and I know I'm losing to much blood, I hear screams in the distant that's starts to get closer. Once close enough I can just make out who it is who' s screaming. It's Peeta. He's screaming my name. "Katniss! I'm coming!" I then completely black out.
"Wake up, Katniss! wake up!" I bolt upright in my bed, drenched in a cold sweat and my throat burning and scratchy from screaming. "It's okay Katniss, it was just a nightmare." I realize it's Peeta, holding me in his arms trying to calm me down. "I killed her." I say emotionless, my voice very hoarse. I can only think of how I killed my sister who I was supposed to protect from harms way. Instead I harmed her myself, by letting her die in the Capitol, for killing her. Why aren't I dead? I killed so many people,and most are from the district who I don't even know the names of. That's how cold and horrible Panem must see me. The Mockingjay. I should be dead. But the only way for me to do that is to do it myself. "You didn't kill her Katniss, it's not your fault." Peeta says to me. "I killed her, I killed her, I killed her." Is all I say. Because it's true. I have to return the favor to myself though.
