A/N: Hi, so this is my first time writing a Hunger Games drabble. I found this today. I wrote it a couple months ago, and refuses I never published it on here.
So, enjoy! And thanks for reading! Please review!
Title: Quiet
Summary: She can see bodies all over the place. Peeta, Prim, her mother, Gale, Midge, Rue, Rory, Posy, Cinna, Haymitch, Effie, Hazel, and countless others. She is screaming, as they call her name over and over again: "Katniss. Katniss. Katniss! KATNISS!"
Rating: T for blood
Genre: Angst/Hurt/Comfort
Pairing: Katniss/Peeta
Disclaimer: I own nothing. It is all owned by Suzanne Collins.
'It is quiet. Too quiet. It is almost unnatural for Katniss until she remembers where she is. In the forest of District 12. Her forest. She breathes in the scent, inhaling it slowly. Fresh pine, freshly fallen rain, and—suddenly she starts to choke. She is gasping for breath until she sees what she smells. A pile of freshly picked roses. They smell of blood, just like Snow. A groan sounds behind her. She spins around. Gale is laying on the ground, blood gushing out of a huge wound in his stomach. She screams and he changes into her mother. Then to Rue. Then Prim. Then Peeta. She is sobbing and screaming Peeta's name over and over again. She can see bodies all over the place. Peeta, Prim, her mother, Gale, Midge, Rue, Rory, Posy, Cinna, Haymitch, Effie, Hazel, and countless others. She is screaming, as they call her name over and over again: "Katniss. Katniss. Katniss! KATNISS!" '
I bolt up in my bed, looking around with wild eyes, and reach under my pillow for the knife I always keep there to find nothing. I collapse on the bed and take in my surroundings. I realizes I'm in a hovercraft. Prim and our mother are sitting beside her, while Finnick, Gale and Haymitch are sitting at the foot if her bed, studying me intensely.
I bolt up, suddenly realizing the absence of the person more important to me than everyone else but Prim and our mother.
"Where's Peeta?" I ask harshly, slightly panicking when Haymitch didn't answer me right away. "Where is he?" I repeated, more urgently thus time.
Haymitch isn't answering. Instead, it's Gale who answers for him. " Peeta," he says the name with obvious dislike, "was picked up by the Capitol."
Tears start forming in my eyes, and I glare furiously at Gale. "You're lying." I croak, not believing him.
"It's true, Katniss. We weren't able to get to him in time." Prim says gently. I start breathing heavily, and I launch myself at Gale,screaming while I punch at every inch of him I can get at. His arms fly up to cover his face. Finnick and Haymitch yank me back. I collapse, sobbing. Prim and my mother try to comfort me, but nothing's working. The only person that could comfort me isn't here. Peeta. I whimper his name. Gale reaches out to put his hand on my back. My breathing speeds up and I start crying and screaming hysterically for Peeta.
A nurse comes up behind me and I feel a jab before everything goes dark and I am lured into a dreamless sleep. Where no one exists.
Not even Peeta.
A/N: So? How was it? I honestly thought I could've done better... Oh well. Please review and let me know how it was.
Thanks!
