Previously:
He holds me as I sob, not asking any questions. Once I have calmed down, I manage to stutter out.
"Finnick…they…They found him….Finnick…we have to go to the hospital"
He stares at me in shock, then jumps off the bed and runs around, finding his shoes, and jumper and I run into Rue and Fins room, to find them happily watching an animated colourful TV show, Rue looks up and appears positively alarmed when she sees my wide frantic eyes, I pick Finley up and run out of the room, calling out for Rue to follow.
We meet Peeta at the door, and race out, down the hall, and wait impatiently for the elevator, when we arrive in the shiny lobby, we run out the sliding doors into the fresh cool air.
We hail a long limousine that is waiting about 10 metres away, and it drives smoothly towards us. We slide in and sit on the long seats on the sides of the car.
We pull up in front of the large white hospital, we are met by two of Paylor guards, who lead us to a small room, I enter and expect to see Finnick, lying on a bed, but instead find Paylor, Plutarch and several doctors waiting for me.
I sit down between Peeta and rue, with Finley on my lap. Paylor addresses us:
"Finnick Odair was found in a capitol street" she says, she presses a button and a small projector shows us a photo of a large street, with tall houses and rubble everywhere.
"It was a deserted street, and capitol workers claim" she says, sounding suspicious and sceptical "that his body was lying under some rocks." She continues to sound sceptical, but continues.
"they brought him in for examination, his body is mauled and decayed, but doctors believe they can heal him in time."
"Do they know how he died?" a doctor asks, I glare at him, surely his death would have been on the news.
"Our doctors believe he was shot." Plutarch replies.
I stand up, my chair falling to the ground behind me
"No, I saw him being attacked by mutations." I say angrily.
"No, there is evidence, that he was shot three times in the chest, we found three bullets." A large doctor with glasses tells me.
"I SAW HIM DIE! I LOOKED DOWN AT HIM AND TEETH AND CLAWS WERE PULLING HIS ARMS AWAY FROM THE LADDER! I SAW HIM DIE!" I sob at him.
"Katniss, you are scaring Finley" says Peeta, trying to grab my arm. I yank it away from him, and run from the room, my head spinning with questions.
I find a small deserted corridor that with two doors, leading to male and female bathrooms and sink down a white wall, so I am sitting with my arms wrapped around my knees.
My breathing is fast and frantic, as I look for something to focus on, anything.
I don't believe the doctors, or Plutarch, I saw Finnick die, he was killed by mutts invented by president snow.
Another question forms in my mind, we were in an underground tunnel, how was Finnicks body found, above ground, under some rocks?
The situation is becoming more and more suspicious.
I sit there, thinking, when suddenly a wave of nausea rushes over me, bile rises from my stomach to my throat, I barely have time to barge into the ladies bathroom and throw open a cubicle before vomit pours out of my mouth and into the toilet. I stay there for minutes, repeatedly throwing up, until I begin to dry wretch and hiccup. I flush the toilet and rise to my feet, then falling against the pale blue wall when dizziness overcomes me.
I finally manage to walk from the toilet to the sink, and look at my pale sweaty face in the mirror. I look tired and sick.
I know I need to get home and into bed, but my weak knees refuse to carry me forward, and they finally give way, causing me to fall to the ground.
I lie there, looking at the bottom of cubicles and the pipes coming from the sink.
I must of fallen asleep, because next I wake up to see Rue standing over me, looking at me concerned.
I look at her, she calls out to someone, and two doctors arrive, they must have been standing outside of the door, they rush in, pushing Rue out of the way, and dragging me onto a stretcher.
I wake up in a comfortable white bed, and see a doctor to my right, and Peeta, Rue and Finley asleep on blue chairs to my left.
I look at the doctor,
"how long have I been asleep? What's wrong with me?" I ask in a small voice.
He begins
"at first we thought it was just shock but then we ran some blood tests, and you have severe- he is cut off when Paylor barges into the room,
"Katniss? Glad you are awake, listen I need you- the doctor cuts her off.
"Mrs Mellark will not be doing anything but resting for the next week" he says harshly, Paylor looks shocked, but turns and leaves the room in silence.
The doctor looks at me,
"Well, yes, we ran some tests," he continues "and you have severe morning sickness, Mrs Mellark, congratulations, you are pregnant."
Well? What did you think?
