AN: This story belongs to a dear friend of mine, he wrote it one night and asked me to post it for him. Written by my best friend Cameron, hope you enjoy, please review nicely.


Dear Katniss,

I used to be a scared little duckling, but you have shown me that you can't let fear stop you from doing what's right. When mom gave up you fed us and kept us alive and when reaping day came, you willingly took my place and saved my life. After all that, you manage to accidentally start a rebellion and then join its ranks. Today is the day this war ends. Today is the day I die.

I left this letter with Johanna and told her to give it to you. At first she refused to let me go through with my plan, but eventually I convinced her it was the only way. I have spoken with Paylor as I know she will be elected after you kill Coin. I know you want some explanations. Well to begin, Coin has given me orders to go to the front lines which I have expected for a while.

This order means one thing: Coin wants me dead. But I'm not afraid, I will face my death with dignity. I also know that you're MIA and Coin knows where you're heading and wants you to see me die in hopes that it will break you. But Katniss you're stronger then that. My death will only make you see how much worse Coin is then Snow could ever be. Even if I choose to run, I would still be killed and my death would serve no purpose because no one would know. You taught me to be strong and brave and most importantly to sacrifice for what matters to you. I'm sorry that I must die and even more sorry you must watch me.

Love,

Your fallen duck

P.S. Don't mourn my death, rejoice in the lives I saved.
