You must save her, do you understand that? (One-Shot, Gale's POV)
"Our tributes: Peeta Mellark and Katniss Everdeen from District 12!" Effie says. After that horrible line the peacekeepers drag Catnip and the baker son into the justice building. The mayor gives his last speech, but I escape that part for going into the justice building to see my Catnip. My first thought was that, going to see Katniss, but then the thought to talk to the baker son, Peeta, first is tempting. So I let my feet take the steps to the right door, where Peeta is.
When I come in, he is kind of surprise for being his second visitor, but later he relax his expression.
"So, you already know?" Peeta asks me. I'm kind of lost, because I don't know what he is talking or…
"You love Katniss?" I say. I always ask myself that, but never try to clear that question of my mind.
He nods. "Now, you understand that I will never do something to hurt her. I will do everything in my hands to protect her, okay? So, be calm!" After this answer to my question and the promise that he will never do something to hurt her, I'm shocked! He loves my Katniss. I push the thought away.
"No! You do not will do everything that is in your hands! You will do everything that is or not is in your hands to protect her! YOU MUST SAVE HER, do you understand that? She must win these games." I almost yell that sentences and he only stares at me with nods.
"I will save her with my life." He finally says before the peacekeeper enters and drags me out of the room.
Then I walked to the left door, where Katniss is. When I see her, the only thing I can do is open my arms and she doesn't hesitate to go into them. This moment is the most quick to her, so I begin fast.
"Listen," I begin. "Getting a knife should be pretty easy, but you've got to get in your hands a bow. That's your best chance."
"They don't always have bows!" Katniss replies.
"Then make one," I reply fast. "Even a weak bow is better than no bow at all." While this sentence is exiting my mouth I thought that she can't lose these games, because I will lose the love of my life and I can't handle that.
"I don't even know if there'll be wood!"
I read her thoughts very fast, because I know she is thinking of other year's games. "There's almost always some wood, since that year half of them died of cold. Not much entertained in that."
"Yes, there's always some."
"Katniss is just hunting. You're the best hunter I know!"
"It's not just hunting. They are armed. They think."
"So do you. And you've more practice. Real practice," I reply thinking when we hunt all the days at the woods. "You know how to kill."
"Not people."
True. We never have killed a human in our lives, so we do not know how we will feel, but anyway its must be done. "How different can it be, really?" I say grimly.
The peacekeeper enters to the room and I ask for more time, but he says no. I begin to get drag by him and Katniss begin to panic.
"Don't let them starve!" She cries out.
"I won't! You know I won't Katniss, remember I -" Damn it! Stupid peacekeeper! I was going to say her that I love her. Now, she will never know. NO! She will know after the games, for sure. She will win and she will come back for me, because she is my Katniss.
The only things I can do for now is hunt and wait.
Weeeeee! Third One-Shot I do in my whole life. ;) Reviews, please?
