They've been trained not to feel pity, not to feel mercy.
And Cato doesn't.
But something that feels very much like it passes through his chest, squeezing at his heart.
It's not at the fact that Clove is dead - he knows that he was willing to kill her if need be, if someone else didn't get to her first.
It is at the look on her face.
It is because of the peace in her eyes, the look that tells him that she finally has what she wanted, what she has been dreaming of.
And even in these times, no child should dream of death.
(Not even in the Career Packs.)
