"Feral? Feral, are you awake?" Zephyr asked his voice quiet and distant. But it broke through the barrier that kept her separated from the conscious. Her vision slowly came back to her, bright colors coming first and dark following. The first thing she saw was Zephyr's blue eyes.

"I am now," she grumbled, reaching up slowly to touch her head. Her arm shook badly and her injury stung when she touched it. He reached out for her hand and brought it to his lips.

"Hey," he smiled. "You're goanna have to take it easy for a while. You must have taken quite a blow to the head. You slept through the rest of yesterday and half of today."

"Who was it?" She asked. Zephyr blinked at her, confused. "The tribute who died yesterday and I thought it was you."

"Is that what happened?"

"Yes," she nodded. "I heard the cannon fire and when I woke up you weren't there. I panicked and tried to find you."

"Oh," he said. "It was the girl from District Ten. I think her name was… Robin? Yeah, Robin."

"Have there been anymore cannon shots today?"

"No"

"Okay," Feral said quietly. She licked her lips. Her mouth was so dry that her tongue felt like sandpaper. She reached over and picked up Zephyr's canteen of purified water and swallowed almost half of it. Zephyr laughed when she chugged it so fast it splashed all over her face.

"Zephyr," she said slowly. "When we were in the Training Center and I told you about how my sister died in the arena… you said you wouldn't let me share the same fate that she did. What… what did you mean by that?"

He took a long time to answer. When he looked up there was so much determination in his eyes that Feral had no choice but to believe it was true. "I mean… I would rather die before I ever let anything happen to you again."

And they kissed.
