Authors note: I still unfortunately do not own the Hunger Games trilogy or any of the characters. If I did I'd be rich but alas I'm not
Blood splatters onto my face and in my mouth and I begin to scream. My district partner has just been beheaded by the career pack and I'm surely next. "Shut up District 4 or we'll shut your mouth for you." The male career from District 2 says menacingly while wiping the blood from his axe. I can't stop screaming, all I can see is the beheading. I want to runaway but I can't seem to move my feet, they seem to be stuck to the ground beneath my feet. They're coming closer and I close my eyes waiting for the death blow. Instead, I'm swept away by a massive wave. I open my eyes and see that they've flooded the arena.
Another wave washes over me and I feel myself going under the water. I start swimming back up but then, another wave washes over me and, I go back under again. I start to feel light headed and I feel my eyes starting to close. Maybe its better to go this way, drowning instead of being killed by someone else. With this thought I close my eyes and let the waves wash over me. Its quite peaceful dying this way. Thats when I hear his voice "Annie don't, Annie swim up you can win this thing. Don't leave me Annie, please don't leave." he cries. Its Finnick, he's crying and begging me to live. "I love you Annie, I always have and always will, just swim to me." he says reaching his arm down to me. I didn't think about how dying would affect him. Thinking clearer now, I grab his arm and begin swimming upwards. When I break the surface I start coughing and spluttering which nearly causes me to go under again. Another wave washes over but this time I fight against it and just keep on swimming. I will keep on fighting the waves to survive. I will keep on fighting for my love, my Finnick.
