After the Games Ch. 9
By Zydeko
*NOTE: I do not own the hunger games (wish I did) or the episode from smallville when Oliver got a magic book for zatanna which this chapter is based on, but I added my own surprising twist
Chapter 9: The Book Part 2
Peeta's P.O.V.
I see prim sitting on the bench across from the swings
Her head is down
And she's holding something to her chest
Tightly
It looks like she's been crying
I walk up to her and sit down next to her
"Prim? Are you okay?" I asked concerned
"Yeah im-"she wipes away a stray tear "im fine"
Now I see what she's been holding
It's a tiny broken whistle
Now I know who gave that to her
Her dad
"Can I get you anything?" I ask (well isn't he nice?)
She wipes another tear away
"Yeah, my aunt Liza had a book that belonged to her dad then she gave it to my dad" she tells me
She continues
"It's the only thing I have to remember him by" she tells me "will you get it for me?" she asks
"Sure thing prim"
"Thank you so much peeta" she tells me
Two Hours Later…
Peeta's P.O.V.
It's 9:00 p.m.
Katniss is asleep
Im wide awake
And ready
I push the button on my watch and suit up
Then I turn back to the sleeping form of katniss and kiss her on the head "goodnight katniss, I love you"
I turn back around and walk out the door and close it gently behind me and leave quietly.
I head to the museum a few minutes away
Every time headlights came into view I had to duck in an alley way nearby.
But I made it
The place was destroyed when the capital bombed district 12
Well almost
The museum was in really bad shape
But the weird thing was that the basement was completely untouched
I looked at the building and remembered that there was a door on the floor in the back that leads to the basement.
I made my way to the back
It was unlocked
The door creaked open
I take one last look outside and slip in
A light above flickers up ahead as I walk further in
'Now where did I see that book?'
I look around
I spot a crate with the top half off
I walk toward it and push the top all the way off
There's this weird blanket with moon patterns on it
I picked it up and felt the soft fabric then placed it in my bag
'I'll give it to katniss when I get home'
The End…
