One-shot time!
This type of one-shot has been done like 1,000 times before mine, so don't think I am copying.
Disclaimer- You're very stupid if you expect me to own a popular series.
My head was dizzy. Anything that had happened had disappeared in a quick blur. My body was crumpling to the ground in a pain no one had ever felt before.
A pain I didn't expect to feel in the Hunger Games.
It was only a few moments before I couldn't feel my body at all. A few screams were audible and I heard a gruff shout that wasn't directed towards me. I could hardly even think at the moment because I was too focused on my pain, so I didn't make an attempt to figure out who's shout it was.
"Clove!" I could hear Cato screaming my name.
I began to shut my eyes, but a thought abruptly stopped me. I won't die. I will not let myself die.
Clove, you were trained to win. This is nothing.
It's nothing, right?
On televisions I was certain everyone could see something I couldn't. Was I pouring blood? Or was I laying on the grass by the Cornocopia for nothing?
Even if I tried to stand, it was impossible. This would be it. I was getting dizzier by the moment.
Good luck, Clove.
Everyone told me that when I knew I was going to come out alive, before the spotlight that was once mine had been taken by the Girl on Fire.
I can't wait to see you after the Games!
In a coffin, or cremated, or left here.
That's where I'd be 'after the Games.'
I wanted to cry. Sobs were welling inside of me, but I was too paralyzed to let a tear escape.
"Clove! Are you here?"
Cato barely came into my periphiral vision. I couldn't make out a part of him, for everything was becoming bright and hardly visual.
I felt his hand taking mine, and squeezing it hard. I was too numb to feel it.
I couldn't feel anymore.
"Come on, Clove! You can't leave me," he whispers to me.
I try to reply, I try to smile, I try to show a sign that I'll stay with him until the day we're supposed to die. Nothing happened.
But a cannon rings in my ears, a sign that a tribute had died.
And that tribute was me.
Okay, I can kind of feel myself crying now... it isn't as depressing or as long as I had hoped. I mean I'm not trying to actually depress you- I just need something to fall back on. :/
I hope you enjoyed my one-shot! Bye!
