Brutus POV

I met up with Enobaria in the Launch Room before the games started. As the doors opened up, she crashed into my arms. She always felt safe engulfed in my arms. "Relax, you're just nervous."

She got off my grasp and sat on the table. "I'm fine," she said, looking down.

"No token this year?" I asked her. She silently shook her head. For her last games, she took with her a small bracelet, which she lost during the games. "You sure?"

"I don't have anything," she said. I took out her engagement ring from my pocket and put it on her finger. Without saying anything, she cupped my cheek and gave me a simple kiss, possibly our last one we will ever share.

"Thirty seconds until the games," said a game maker from the speaker.

Enobaria walked into the tube and waited. "Brutus, wait. If I don't make it back, don't think you can't love someone else."

"Don't say that," I told her. "You're going to win." The glass panel closed, no way of escape. The platform began to raise Enobaria up and she put on her fighter phase, prepared for the games. I made my way over to the underground watching room where I met up with Lyme, Haymitch, and the mentors of District 3, 4, 6, and 7.
