This is love chapter 15 katniss's POV
A/N here is the next chapter, thank you to everyone who has reviewed it means so much to me and I hope you guys enjoy this chapters.
I scream for Cato as I see the mutt jump out at him, he gets knocked to the ground. I swiftly pull out my arrow and shoot the mutt. I hurl Cato up and we head off in a sprint towards the cornucopia. As I am sprinting I can feel my cut open again but I don't have time to stop to check it. I start to slow down because the pain coming from my side is killing me.
"Katniss come on you can make it" Cato grabs my hand pulls me along. We reach the cornucopia the same time as thresh and I can see a huge claw mark on the left side of his face. Cato hauls me up and I grab his hand to pull him up but the same mutt that jumped Cato has bitten his leg I hear he cry out in pain so I pull him up on top of the cornucopia and we catch our breath lucky thresh is still getting his too. I quickly take off my jacket and wrap it around Cato leg I can feel more blood coming out of my cut but I ignore it for now. As I finish wrapping Cato's leg I gets pulled back and flown across the cornucopia by thresh and he is now on top of Cato punching him. I run over and push thresh off of him and kick him in the stomach, he grunts then comes charging at me again. He spears me over and he has got his hand around my throat cutting off my air. I scratch and try and pull hid hand away but it won't budge. Thresh all of a sudden gets kicked off of me by Cato and Cato now has a weapon in his hand but so does thresh. I race over to my bow and pull an arrow into the quiver. Thresh charges at Cato but I let go of my arrow and it sinks into his shoulder it doesn't stop him but he slows down, I see Cato start to run and then they are both on the ground wrestling for dominance. I stand there not knowing what to do, hear grunts of pain and then thresh is pinned underneath Cato, I see him rise his sword but thresh kicks him hard in the stomach, I run over to Cato but thresh gets a hold of my hair and yanks me away. He pushes me to the horn of the cornucopia and he punches me in the ribs and I hear 2 of them crack.
"You didn't save her in time" thresh growls at me; I stare at him not knowing who he is talking about until I notice that it is Rue.
"I'm so sorry I tried but I couldn't I-I sang her to sleep" I say quickly
"To sleep?" thresh questions
"I sang to her until she died" I say
"Well she was supposed to win not you or him" thresh replies and he brings up his curved sword about to slit my throat but Cato is up and kicks him away. I fall to the ground putting my arm around my rib cage trying to contain the pain. Cato is now on top of Thresh throwing punch after punch at him, I can see the red blood pouring from Thresh's face, I wince.
"You don't think she tried" I hear Cato say "we both tried but she is gone now"
I get my quiver and an arrow ready I jog over to Cato but as I get there I see thresh pick up his sword without Cato noticing and he plunges it through Cato's stomach.
"No! Cato" I scream I run over to where Cato has fallen off of thresh and I see the growing puddle of blood around him. I stand up and point my last arrow at thresh and let it go and it flies straight into his heart. BOOM! The cannon sounds.
I drop next to Cato lightly pulling his shirt up to reveal the mark and it is extremely deep. I put my hands over the wound to try and stop the bleeding but my hands are covered in Cato's blood within a minute.
"Cato it's going to be alright the hovercraft will be here any second hold on for me…..please" I beg him the hot tears already marking their way down my cheeks
"Attention tributes the last announcement has been revoked there can only be one victor, so may the odds be ever in your favour"
I sit there frozen this can't be happening they can't expect us to kill each other I can't I won't I will let Cato win he deserves it.
"Kat you have to kill me you can go home to prim" Cato says while putting his hand on my cheek I lift my hand up to cover it not wanting him to let go
"No you're going home I will not kill you I-I love you and I'm sending you home" I tell him between sobs
I pull out some of the nightlock that I had in my pocket and look down at the berries that will be my death.
"No Katniss I won't let you" Cato whispers
"They have to have a victor and that will be you" I tell him while shaking my head
"No they don't" Cato replies, I'm confused until Cato takes some of the berries in his hand and he looks at me while nodding his head.
"Together" he asks
"Together" I whisper
I entwine my blood stained fingers through Cato's and he pulls me down my maybe our last kiss, he lips are so soft on mine. As we pull away we rest our foreheads together and take in a breath.
"1" I look down at the berries
"2" I whisper that I love prim
"3" we raise the berries to our lips and I let them fall into my mouth.
