"RUN! EVERYBODY GET UP COME ON!"
We ran and ran trying to escape this disgusting sweet smelling fog. I carried Mags but with each second in the fog made it harder and harder that's when Peeta falls. The useless mockingjay tries to help him I had to turn back and pick him up we tried both carrying him but to a futile effort. I have to take him I lunge him on one shoulder and try giving Katniss Mags. That didn't work either and she wanted me to carry both of them. I couldn't. And before anyone could do anything she runs straight into the fog to try to save the rest of us. I couldn't help but to start crying but we had to run and we tried I hobbled as Peeta was whispering.
"Please Finnick I don't want to die. Please I'm so sorry I'm useless, but, but at least I get to die in your arms, Finnick, I love you."
Then moments later the cannon blows for Mags. All I can hear is Peeta telling me sorry and that he wishes he wasn't useless, and I couldn't take I wanted to tell him he wasn't and tell him that I love him to and most of all I just wanted to kiss him one last time. I kept hobbling into the jungle, when all of the sudden its stopped like it couldn't go any further and like that we fell to the floor. Our suits were demolished the acid shit turned that to rags and made us all spasm when all the sudden I hear Katniss.
"Monkeys, there are monkeys up there"
The three of us looked up and saw these monkey things we just laid there for a while and Peeta starting kissing the back of my neck.
"Thank you Finnick." Peeta whined in a barely audible voice
"Welcome. Katniss come on lets go to shore." I groaned back equally audible voice
We crawled to the water, because crawling was all we could do at this point. But as soon as we went to shore the water hurt so badly I couldn't bare it anymore and just stopped moving. In the background I could hear Katniss trying to get me in the water and can make out her gargling it too. After a short while of that I felt Peeta cone to me started ripping off the sad excuse of clothes I was wearing right down to my boxers with two sharp shells. Then he and Katniss started pouring water on my arms and it was so intense I kept letting out moans.
Peeta started whining "Finnick it'll be okay. Just try holding on a little longer. Finnick please just do it for me."
"Yeah, Finnick it'll be okay trust me. It feels great afterward." Katniss was trying to help, but I hate her so much, I just tried to disregard her.
Slowly I could feel the two of them drag me in the water and it hurt so bad I just kept moaning and letting out whimpers of pain and my tears were even burning my face. When they have me fully submersed I can open my eyes and the first face I see is my bread boy smiling and back to normal.
"There's just your head left, Finnick. That's the worst part, but you'll feel much better after, if you can bear it," Peeta says to me in the most heavenly way possible
They help me to sit up and let me grip their hands as they purge my eyes, nose and mouth. My throat is still too raw to speak, and all I want to do is thank my blue-eyed princess. Katniss goes to go get us drinking water. Which leaves Peeta and I alone together for now, he then gave me a strong kiss and forces his tongue in. we stayed like that as I healed, tongue tied wrestling our tongues forcefully on each other like there was something to steal from both of our mouth's. After we break I feel amazing. I start going under water and spinning in circles doing backflips, I feel home here, I stay under for a while opening my eyes and letting water come in and out and then I resurface after about 4 minutes.
"Don't do that," Peeta yells at me.
"What? Come up or stay under?" I snicker back
"Either. Neither. Whatever. Just soak in the water and behave," he snaps at me "Or if you feel this good, let's go get some normal water from Katniss."
"Hey guys, stay there, I'm going to be there in a second just don't look up." Katniss says to us.
I get a little freaked out, but I do as she says, because she looked genuinely scared. But Peeta just barely glanced up and it's like a bomb gone off and they all targeted my bread boy. Mutts. We stood there in the jungle in a triangle of broken wounded people prepared to kill all of them, but hey were fast. Katniss ran out of arrows in about two minutes and I just kept stabbing as many as I could. But then I saw it, one going right for defenseless Peeta. And out of nowhere the morphling from district 6 comes out and takes hold of the mutt and viciously stabs it in the back over and over until it dies.
"Come on, then! Come on!" shouts Peeta, panting with rage.
But then like the fog the monkey retracted and disappeared except for the dozens that lie dead on the floor. Peeta ran to her, and there she was lying in Peeta's lap nearly dead with four deep finger wounds to her chest. Katniss had her weapon at the ready and I walk up to my sweet bread boy, and the sickly dying morphling, and he's just talking to her about paint and she drew a flower on with her blood.
"Thank you, it's beautiful" Peeta replied
And like that she smiled and died. We had to keep on after that we left and the cannon went off. We drank shellfulls of water and went back down to the beach and according to Katniss we can't scratch because well get an infection. I guess Katniss saw that Peeta and I needed some time to cope with just happened with Mags and the morphling. And we just laid there holding each other crying. And once again Peeta broke the silence.
"Finnick, did she mean much to you?"
"…Yeah, Mags trained me for my games, she was the one that took care of Annie when Snow, … did what he did with me, she helped me a lot"
"Oh Finnick, I'm sorry I had no idea she meant so much to you"
Peeta tried so hard to comfort me and it hurt me soo much that it didn't help. All I could think about was when I was reaped and I had this older woman whom I've never met before and she was my life line. Now that's she's gone I don't know how to feel. We just laid their and Peeta held me and kissed me gently.
