/!\ Please read

Okay so since this is the only story where I haven't announced it, I do it now. I've started a Teen Wolf fanfic (oh yes I did) and there's already a couple chapters online, so... if you guys like my style, want to show support, or something... you know you can go take a look, it's called Keep going. Thanks !

Shouts-out :

GaaraRocks101: Well I don't want to stick with the books that much, that's why I invented the costumes at the char ceremony. ^^ Oh don't worry they will meet with the careers.. I had to keep everyone alive for the plot, that is why I didn't make them fight. About Cato being upset... well you'll see that soon ^^ Peeta's feelings toward Simon won't really stay as how they are currently. Won't say more ^^

London : Well you review almost everything, so. ^^ Peeta's desire to have a child was something he realised when he was taking care of Camilia in District 2. He won't have one quite soon tho. Yeah of course I mean a baby in the future not just now haha

WholeWheatWaffles: Johanna will def have more moments :) Haha, that's a good question you ask there. About Lethe first. In the novel I'm currently writing, which is the sequel to my first book, I created a new character whose name is Lethe. I don't know why I just love that name. In college I studied greek mythology. And I found out that the streams, in greek mythology, were gods. The god/stream of oblivion is Lethe. My character is able to erase memories. It just made sense to me to call him like that. Then I was looking for a name for Peeta's brother and it came like this. ^^ About Cahier. You're gonna laugh. I had no fucking idea on how to call him. So I looked around me and saw a notebook ("un cahier" in french). Therefore in my story, the Mellark brothers are named after a type of bread, a greek god, and a freaking notebook. Which one is the best ?

dualities: Haha, Finnick ? Keep it in his pants ? no way !

JoshuaEvans123: Well that was everyone's reaction I think xD I had this scene planned in my head for so long ! xD

NickChance: Aw no don't die :( My novel is written in french, though I'll try to translate it in english. I mean, I could, right ? Here is the page if you want to show support ! /RoidesSongesSaga

MangoMagic : I'm sorry about Wiress. Had not the time to keep her in the story... :/

LifeThroughSeaGreenEyes : Haha yes, not many people know what cahier means :p notebook, textbook... :)

jGrcer : Oh yeah, Simon's a cutie ! I love him.

StormageddonDarkLordOfAl: Welcome aboard ! Well, tbh, I've already considered what you suggested. And indeed there will be a conflict for Cato. Peeta will also have a superhero moment haha, but I can't tell you when ! Thank you a lot for leaving such a long review, I hope you keep liking the story :)

Cray-Crayperson: Did you rest after your camp ? :p

Aya-of-the-night: Well I don't know I just really like Marvel I don't know why exactly. I'm not actually fluent in english, I write quite bad in this language :/

Warning : Again, this is not really a nice chapter... M for the violence


Chapter 25 : You're the reason why I started this fight

Cato's P.O.V

Peeta's make out session with Finnick sent me on edge. I'm a possessive guy, everyone knows it. And Peeta is mine. He's my husband, for God's sake ! How dare Finnick doing that ? Okay, he saved his life. I owe him that. But that's not enough to calm me down.

If Finnick ever walks out of this, I'm killing him myself.

And with Peeta... they censored it, but it seemed like he was trying to cover a boner. Damn !

I should not go to Floor 2 until everything is clean. It pissed me off so much that I flipped the table and broke two chairs... Fuck ! I wish I could send a message to Peeta but I can't. I'm torn apart between 'mentoring' my tributes and supporting Peeta. I should have known that when I decided to be their mentor.

The only thing I can do is stay here and watch this. Not being able to do anything unnerves me more than anything else.


Peeta's P.O.V

After last night's events, I try to keep it low with Finnick. There's no way I'm letting this kind of things happen again.

After breakfast, we decide to look for animals to hunt. We're six : our supplies are shortening fast. We won't make it one day if we don't find anything. I am not leaving Prim alone with Finnick, so I decide he comes with us. Simon will stay with her and Mags while Johanna, Finnick and I go hunting. I take some throwing knives and put them on my back in a pocket. After packing up some stuff, we go in the woods behind the lake.

After thirty minutes, we hear something. Quickly, we spot a deer. We creep towards it, and when it's close enough, I throw my spear at it. The spear jabs through its neck. "Awesome !" Finnick exclaims.

I only roll my eyes. We start walking up to the corpse when we hear another CRACK, as if someone just broke the dead branch of a tree by walking on it. "What was that ?" I ask, but I'm immediately shut up by Johanna who presses her index on her mouth.

"Shhh !" She takes her axe.

And suddenly, something jumps up to us. "Oh, I finally found you !" someone yells and I fall backwards in surprise.

"Gosh, you a lmost gave me a heart attack !" Johanna grunts as I get back up on my feet. Oh, it's the man from District 3, Beetee...

"How come you only found us now ?" Finnick asks.

"What ? Since when is he in the alliance."

They all look at me. "We were going to tell you..." Johanna starts.

I sigh. "Whatever." I interrupt her. "We're all gonna die anyway." I mutter as I walk up to the dead deer.

I lean and pull the spear out of the bloody neck of the creature. "Don't say that." Johanna says.

I only chuckle and turn to face them, giving them the look. Then, I start getting impatient. "So, one of us is gonna help me with this deer ?"

"Oh ! Yes." Finnick says as he walks up to me. He takes the hind legs of the animal, and I take the other ones. We start walking back to the camp. I feel weird about this. We're seven. Seven. That's too much for a group.

While walking back to the camp, we use another way that seems quicker. But after a while, the way seems to be repeating itself. "I feel like we're turning around." I say.

"So do I." announces Johanna.

Right at that moment, I step on something. "Wait, I walked on something." I say as I move my foot.

"Those are mushrooms." Beetee notices. "That's a pity, we could have eaten them."

A light trail of smoke escapes from the crushed mushroom. "Uh oh." Finnick blurts out.

I start coughing and I let the deer fall on the ground to put my hands around my throat. My vision blur. What the hell is happening ? I think I see the others choking as well. But suddenly they're not here anymore. What's happening ? I look around me. There's some kind of fog all around me. "Johanna ?" I call. "Finnick ? Beetee ?"

No answer. They're not there anymore, and the deer – gone... with my spear. I'm harmless !

I look down. The mushrooms are oddly bigger than earlier, and they don't seem crushed at all. A dense fog covers the forest. "Hello ?" I call. "Anybody here ?" A strange echo sends me my words back.

I start walking. This is so weird. I don't recognize the way.

"There is a way." a familiar voice whispers, but even though it's very clear, it feels like the provenance of the voice its far away.

Who can it be ? I know that voice. It's a man, a boy - I don't know. I would know if it was Cato, but it can't be... right ? He's not in the arena. But the person who just talked to me can't be in the arena either... right ? I move forward, not knowing what I head for exactly.

"Promise me something..." the echo says, and it makes me anxious not to know who it is. "Win for me."

"Win for me, win for me, win for me." the echo repeats, as my eyes widen. I know who it is.

"Marvel ?" I call. How could it be him ? But it's his voice.

"It's me." he says. "You won for me. Thank you, Peet'. Thank you."

"Where are you, Marvel ?!"

"Right here." a voice says behind me.

I blench and turn. He's here. "Marvel..." I whisper. His grey eyes... his brown bangs on his forehead... a light smile on his lips.

"Peeta" he repeats before I jump on him to hug him. He's surprised at first, but he wraps his arms around me. I cry, I missed him so much. How is that even possible ? How is he here ?

"You were dead." I whimper against his chest. "You were..."

"Shhh... don't cry." he says while patting the back of my head gently.

"I missed you so much... you have no idea."

"I missed you too, Peeta." he whispers, stroking my hair. "Thanks for saving my mother. Thank you so much..."

I back. "How are you here ?"

"I don't know." he stutters. "How are you here ?" I shake my head. I don't know what to answer. "They're coming for you." he whispers. "You have to hide. Now." he says as he walks backwards.

"Don't go !" I yell.

"Stop yelling and hide !" he says before vanishing in the fog.

I turn my head as I hear a noise. The fog has disappeared, but there are some people around, I just feel it.

Running through the forest, I move as fast as I can. And suddenly, I hear a cannon. Who was it ? A career ? Someone from my group ? A loner ?

"He's here !" a woman yells. I recognize this voice : it belongs to Enobaria.

"Let's kill him !" a man yells as well. It must be Brutus. The careers ! They're not far away. Oddly enough, I don't hear anything from Gloss and Cashmere. Are they with them, though ? I wonder as I run as fast as I can. I spot the edge of the forest.

Going out of the woods, I can finally run free – but I'm also more easily spotted.

I see the blue lake and the rock where we had set up our camp. Something's not right. There's a dead body on the ground, I can see it from the distance. Fuck ! Who can it be ? Simon ? Johanna ? Finnick ? Mags ? Beetee ? Prim ?

Oh, no, no...

I run up to the dead form and realise that it's the old lady, Mags. Even though I'm sorry for her, because she didn't deserve to be in such a situation at her age, I don't have the time to stay here and lament, the careers are after me.

"Come here, Peeta ! I won't hurt you ! That would be too horrible for that little bitch on the screen ! She would be so sad !" Enobaria mocks at me, a few meters away.

How dares she make fun of Camilia ? I turn. She's alone now. Brutus is not here, such as the other careers.

I still have my throwing knives. As I take one in my hand, Enobaria smirks and runs a hand through her hair before she steps toward me. I then notice my spear in her hand. "Seems like you lost this." she teases. "Do you want it back ?" she asks. This is typically the situation where none of the answers is the right one. If I say no, I will look weak. If I say yes, she will take the opportunity to throw it at me. In both cases she will try to hurt me with the weapon. I have to figure something out.

But before I have the time to, I hear someone yell : "Just die, bitch !" and then an axe flies to her face - I guess it musts be Johanna. Enobaria dodges the weapon easily, and I take this opportunity to throw the knife at her. The blade flies to her and jabs into her hand, making her lose the grip she had on my spear. She moans in pain. I run to her and at the moment she wants to attack me, I kick her legs and she falls on the ground. I hear footsteps behind me but I guess it musts only be Johanna trying to helping me out.

I pick up the spear and position myself above her. Johanna holds her legs on the ground, and my feet tackle her wrist on the green grass.

"What were you saying about Camilia ?" I ask.

She trembles but keeps staring at me. "Stupid child." she spits. What ? How can she dare now ?

"Care to repeat for me ?" I mutter.

"You heard well." she says. "Her... the Shriver... your husband... and yourself... you're all stupid."

"Come on, Peeta, let's get this over with." Johanna says.

"I wish you rot in hell." I tell Enobaria.

She starts laughing like a mad person. "I will say hi to Marvel from you, then." she says before starting to laugh like she's insane.

My eyes bulge. "Shut. The fuck. Up !" I yell, but nothing I say will make the woman stop laughing. I scream, raise the spear, and before I even understand what I'm doing, down it in her mouth until the blade touch the grass in an infernal crack of bones. The laugh has stopped, and I bear on the handle of the spear a few seconds just to watch the life leave the body of the woman. I then breathe a few seconds. The adrenaline is just too powerful on me, I didn't even hear her cannon.

"Peeta... Not even me have killed somebody like that."

I get off her body. The spear is jabbed into her mouth, and there's blood all over her face, her eyes wide open, her neck and her torso – also, on the grass, and even on my pants.

"Wow." I just say. "I just did that."

"You just did, yes." Johanna confirms. "I know someone who's not gonna like it." she says as she pats me on the arm.

I pull the spear out of her lifeless body, which makes more blood flood out of the wound. When I jabbed the spear into her, I teared some teeth off. All of that is just insane, and I should find that disgusting but I don't.

I enjoyed it.

"Care to tell me what happened ?" I ask.

"When you stepped on the mushrooms," Johanna starts "We all started having hallucinations."

"Did you see someone you lost ?"

She frowns. "Why would I have ? I only saw a purple cow and a flying rabbit. That's stupid enough."

"And the others ?"

"As we were in the forest, hallucinating like mad people, the careers assaulted Prim, Mags and Simon. Mags didn't make it."

"Yeah, I saw..."

"According to Simon, she sacrificed herself when they heard the careers were coming. Just to give them time, she stayed at the camp when they were running."

"Oh, wow... that's very brave of her." She nods. "So where is everyone ?"

"In the forest, I'll show you. You were the closest one to the mushrooms, therefore, your hallucination must have lasted longer than it did with the all of us. But you were gone when I pulled myself together." I start walking up to the woods. "Oh, where do you think you're going ?" she asks.

"Well, let's find them."

"No, no. I know one young girl who's gonna freak out when she will see all that blood. Go wash your face in the lake. I'll be right behind you if you feel like drowning again."

I roll my eyes. "Very funny, Jo."

"Stop with the surname." she mutters.

"As you want..." I say as I start walking towards the lake. "Jo."


Cato's P.O.V

What the fuck happened today ?

First, we see Peeta steeping on that mushroom. His team mates and him go to different directions, but all I could focus on was him. He walks weirdly... We hear a voice. I've already heard it before, who does it belong to ?

Then it hits me, right at the moment when Peeta yells his name. Marvel. He's dead ! I get it. The Capitol uses everything it can against the tributes to make them lose their minds. Then I guess Peeta is hallucinating.

"Marvel ! Marvel !" he yells, and I have to bite my lip because I know he's not going to come. He's never coming back, he's dead.

"Marvel ! Marvel !" and suddenly, there's a shadow, and Peeta turns. For a moment I feel my heart bump in my chest. Is it another tribute ? They talk together. The camera doesn't show the person, and right at that moment, the video is cut. The next clip of Peeta is when he's running in the woods, a few moments later, with the careers running after him. Oh, no... that's what I feared.

What happens next is something I will remember to my last day. Not because it was happy, no... Because it disgusts me. Peeta butchered one of my tributes. How... he shouldn't have killed her like that. Peeta, what are you doing ?

He's changing, I see it and I feel it. Is it because I'm not here ? Was it because of the hallucinations ?

It couldn't have actually been Marvel, could it ?

And Enobaria. I had gotten to know her over the years since her victory. When I was training in the school in District 2, I would always go ask her for some advices... She insulted me and my family, sure, but she was angry and about to die anyway.

She didn't deserve to die this way.


AN :

Well... for the ones feeling that the plot was slowing down... I hope this was good enough for you to ask yourselves a few questions.

I must admit I actually loved killing off Enobaria, it was purifying to write something so descriptive !

Don't forget the teen wolf fanfic. Also let me recommend you that show, I know that most of you must be like 'oh tell me he's kidding' but seriously. It's good.
