Thanks for reviewing 123IlovePeeta.
I cannot believe I cried, snow now knows he has vaguely won. Putting me in the Arena, smart but not that smart because I will not kill Peeta or Finnick or Mags maybe this time they will have five victors instead of one (Mine and Peeta's baby included.) I yawn as the day continues on, we have barely seen anyone and deaths are rare at the moment, I'm expecting some sort of horror soon as no action means that people will get bored, which means that they will inflict some sort of terror on us all and as expected they do. Fog, we stand still and look at it as it looms toward us, then it starts to hurt mine and Finnicks flesh, I yelp in the pain as a lump forms.
"RUN!" Finnick and I yell at the same time.
Noone questions it yet Mags is slower to respond as she was eating a nut, she tries to gather the stuff up but Finnick makes her leave it and get on his back. Finnick is ahead of me with mags on his back and Peeta is trailing behind.
"DON'T STOP RUNNING KATNISS!" Peeta hisses.
"PEETA HURRY!" I yell back.
He tries to hurry up but his limps are changing. Deforming into a jelly type thing. Finnick runs back and takes him onto his back beside Mags yet soon he begins to feel the effects too.
"I can't hold them both, can you take Mags?"
"Yes."
I take Mags onto my back and she tries to help by holding below my arms so her arms don't pull on my neck but when the effects of the fog hits me I fall over and then we know that we can't all continue together.
"I can't hold her!" I yell forward as I try to crawl so I'm still moving.
Mags then does something that shocks us all. She kisses Finnicks cheek and turns into the fog and lets it kill her.
We reach the boundary and have to watch helplessly as the lovely old woman writhes in agony. I see Cinna again but force him from my mind, I will have revenge for this.
Finnick's eyes are teary as are my own and Peeta's. Peeta and I both do the three fingered signal our district uses as a goodbye for someone you love or care about dearly. We sit on the beach and I throw up four maybe five times, I loose count as I'm too overwhelmed.
Peeta sits alone by the waters edge as its all he can do. I go to the water and walk in abit as I think it might help the pain I feel from the fog, the water turns cloudy and I feel some relief. Soon I'm submerging my whole body especially my baby bump. Peeta follows suit but Finnick is almost completely paralysed so we half carry half drag him to the waters edge and slowly submerge parts of his body, Peetas arms begin to re-form and he gets mobility back as he strips down to his under wear, I copy him and we do the same to Finnick.
When were soothed and better Finnick fishes a bit, I think he just wants to be alone really so Peeta and I stay out of his way but close enough to help him if the need should arise.
Peeta just stares at me and rubs my back as he knows that I'm suffering with it again, he is so calm and collected that I just ease off into a paradise in between being awake and asleep, it's blissful yet I still have my doubts. Nothing can last forever, this peace will soon end, another terror, another tribute, does any of it truly matter? Mags is dead because I couldn't carry her, because I angered Snow. They are all paying a debt that isn't theirs. My debt and no one else sees this! Cinna, Mags, the other victors, my family, Gale's family. Just because I refused to bend. I refused to kill Peeta, I'm glad I did but how many more people am I going to doom to death? Defy the Capitol and everyone suffers. Obey and you still suffer but no more than you would normally, even if you end up in the games. Its normal but I want something different. Something better.
I hear footsteps coming from the west. I feel Peeta lurch to his feet and Finnick splashing something then someone is griping my arms trying to move me, I snap out of the bliss-filled world I had the pleasure of entering and scramble to my feet. We scatter into the woods Finnick around seven meters to my right and Peeta half a meter behind me. We find trees and hide but the trees aren't enough cover.
It's Johanna! Finnick approaches her and our jaws drop, is he trying to die?
Maybe this is where I die, maybe this is where we all end? Maybe there will be no victor this year maybe they are going to kill us all? Johanna isn't alone she has Nuts and Volts, with her. Why would she make an alliance with them? Nuts, is well Nuts and Volts isn't much better.
"Johanna," Finnick greets her
"Finnick." She replies.
Peeta and I go forward to the quartet of past victors and I throw up yet again.
"Yuk and this is supposed to help us survive?" Johanna spits.
"She maybe Pregnant but she isn't useless." Finnick replies softly.
Johanna comes up close to me, almost as if she's squaring up to me, and looks me straight in the eye.
"I'll still kill you even though your pregnant."
Peeta jumps infront of me with his knife drawn protectively.
"You'll do not such thing!" He shouts.
"I meant if its me or her." Johanna corrects.
"Lets calm down, we don't want to be killing each other now do we?" Finnick interrupts.
"Fine."
