Merida was sleeping pleasently when something woke her up. It was still dark and she struggled to focus her vision...voices, but where were they coming from?

A hand appeared from the darkness cupping her mouth! She struggled but it was too strong!

-Shhhh...- The owner of the hand said behind her -It's me, calm down... They found us- Oliver released her.

-Sorry if I spooked you, but we need to stay quiet- he whispered - Follow me- they tiptoed deeper into the cave as they heard the voices aproach.

-Oliver...Ae... Don't think Ae can fight... Still dizzy from those stings- Merida said following and almost tripping.

They reached a fork in the cave behind a large boulder. Oliver crunched down -Merida, they are coming- he began -You can't fight like this so I need you to hide here-

The footsteps were very close now, he stood up and placed the hood over his face.

Merida barely dared to peek over the boulder, Oliver was standing there facing Katniss and Hawkeye.

She could almost feel the tension building up, until Oliver stroke.

He swung his bow hitting Katniss square in the face, who went down.

Then he engaged the man, launching a three punch combination and a kick, all of whixh were easily blocked or dodged. They exchanged blows, almost to fast to follow. Then they separated and began shooting, the first two shots or so were dodged but then the arrows fell splintered in mid air, they were knocking each other arrows down! Finally when only two arrows remained in his quiver Oliver closed the gap again, he landed a flying kick on his oponents chest and readied an arrow, he was about to fire when another arrow appeared in his chest.

Merida gasped and covered her mouth while tears began to flow, Oliver fell to his knees and saw the girl Katniss still in the follow through of her shot.

Hawkeye quickly aimed at him -Seems like game over pal, so before I put an arrow on your eye socket, would you mind telling me where is your redhead friend?-

Oliver didn't answer

-I suggest you spill your guts, unless you want me to spill them for you?-

with the last of his strenght he shot and hit the ceiling of the cave.

-Well well- Clint mocked -fighting till the bitter end, any lasts words?-

-BOOOM!- the explosion rocked the tunnel, causing a cave-in that separated Oliver and Merida from Clint and Katniss.

With tons of rock safely between them he crawled to Merida's side.

-Take...this- he said handing her his last arrow, an explosive one like the one he had just used.

-Survive, get home-

-Oliver- the princess laid her head on his chest -ye can make et, et just like the island, come on...- she begged. His breathing got slower

-Shengcun princess...- Merida felt his chest dissapear under her hands and when she looked Oliver wasn't there anymore, she looked at the golden dust he had left behind after dissapearing and her tears fell over it.

so yeah, oliver died and this is almost over! Stay tuned!
