A/N: Yeah, it's been forever since I updated! I've been so busy! I had a chorus trip, I have massive amounts of homework, I finished Doomed with Silence, I began Condemned, I worked on Missing, I have been attending Young Author's Club, and I have been practicing for auditions so I can get a solo!
Chapter 20
It's the night. After Madge's death, Rory hasn't been sleeping. He just glares at the sleeping Careers. Now, he's sitting next to the girl from 1. Her silver hair lies around her like she's sleeping on a moonbeam. Rory looks at the small girl, takes out a knife and slits her throat. He silently moves to the others and slits their necks. After hunting, he's gotten good at being stealthy.
He kills all of them. Blood trickles down their necks.
"Rory would never do that….Why?" Prim asks, her voice cracking.
"You know why. The Games will make you do anything," I say. But even I am surprised by Rory's actions. Why would he do that?
He's one of the only ones left. He silently makes his way in the dark to kill more people. He finds the boy from 9 and the girl from 7 together. The boy was supposed to be keeping watch, but nodded off. Rory kills the boy first. Then, he moves onto the girl. She stirs, about to wake, but she remains asleep. Rory killed her. He is left alone with the lethal girl from 10.
A/N: Rory is not being heartless. He just wants to get home to Prim. Next chapter will be the last until the third installment!
