Hey guys! 2nd CHAP! So, FYI, Peeta won't be introduced until... uh, I guess a few

chapters. Maybe a bit sad. :-( Also, Katniss's speech, can't take credit for. Dean was the one who said it. Also, I do not own The Hunger Games Trilogy or any concepts from the show Supernatural. Anyway, please tell me what you guys think and follow and favorite.

One year earlier…

She sat, staring blankly ahead of herself. For the first time in her life, she felt truly alone.

She closed her eyes tightly and stood. When she opened them again, they landed on the pale blonde. Her bright, sunny sister lie dead on the table, hours after her life was brutally ended. Katniss stepped toward her and grabbed a cold hand in hers.

"Prim-" her voice was hoarse as her world came crashing down. "Do you remember when we were little- you were 4 at most. I had to lift you onto my hip, you were so small," she laughed dryly, "That's about the time you started to ask questions…" she trailed off at the memory, "Like, 'How come we don't have a dad? Why do we always have to move around? Where'd Mom go? Why'd she take off for days at a time?' I begged you to stop asking, Primmy… 'You don't want to know.' I'd tell you. I just wanted you to be a child, a little girl, to hold that innocence that I didn't have anymore. You know, just for a little while longer. I was just trying to protect you. Keep you safe. Mom didn't even have to tell me but I always knew you were my responsibility. It's like I had one job… that one job… and I screwed it up." Her voice cracked as she got choked up, "I blew it... And for that, I'm so sorry... " tears leaked out of her eyes and she fidgeted in her chair. She wiped at her cheeks with her free hand and sighed, "I guess that's just what I do. Now, you're like every other person I love… I let Mom down and I guess I'm just supposed to let you down too. But, how can I? How am I supposed to live with that? What am I supposed to do? Primmy…" Katniss began screaming and jumped up, pacing. "What am I supposed to do?" she repeated again and again, looking for a sign as she trashed her surroundings. "You're my little sister Primmy," by this time, her cheeks were soaked and she was straight out sobbing, "you- you can't be dead."

She was all alone in the empty house. She'd screamed away Haymitch ages ago.

And idea popped into her head some time that night.

That's when she jumped into her car and sped away. She drove and drove… Until she reached the crossroads. She knew what she was doing was wrong but her grief led her onward. The lamp above her illuminated the dark space and she scrambled in her trunk for all the materials… With hesitation, she took out her gun and locked it away with the rest of her weapons.

That's about the time she summoned a demon.

The demon she made a deal with.

He appeared behind her, eyebrows raised. "Katniss Everdeen… to what do I owe the pleasure?" His voice oozed lust and he smirked. He began circling her up and trailing his hands along her body. He was handsome but the thought that she'd soon be kissing him was still revolting.

She held her breath until he stood before her with a questioning expression. "I think you know why." She grunted, her voice still weak from the screaming. "I want to make a deal."

"Yes, yes… Ugh, you Everdeens, always trading your lives for one another… So, say I bring back poor, poor Primrose and you in return…" he prompts.

She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms, "Obviously I sell you my soul. You should know this, um..." She paused, not knowing his name.

"Cato." He filled in, "Sounds like a deal." he says behind her.

She whips around to see him and stares suspiciously, "Really? I get ten years with Prim?" She was surprised how easy that'd been.

"No, no, no." He laughed dangerously low, "That's for my usual clients. You're… special." he stepped forward and held her head in his hands, stroking her cheek with his thumb.

She's upset to say the least, her heart races and she shoots back, "Seven years?" He shook his head, pity in his eyes. "Five."

"One." He tells her, "That's my only offer. Take it or leave it." His breath blows across her face. She nods, solemn. Then he brings their lips together, sealing the deal for eternity. When they separated, he smiled, "Oh, and just so you know, if you try to get out of your contract in any way shape or form, Prim goes right back to where she came from. Got it?"

"Yes." She whispered and he vanished, leaving her alone in the night. Regret only seeps into her chest for a split second before she held her resolve, knowing what her life would be like without her little sister.

She sits in the car outside the house, over thinking everything. She breaths in and out rapidly as the consequences weigh on her. She was doomed. Doomed to hell. Doomed to be ripped to shreds by Hellhounds. Torture, murder, death.

Death.

She was going to die.

It was never what she envisioned her death to be but, truth be told, she was surprised she'd even lasted this long.

A ring broke her thoughts before she had a full blown panic attack. She answered blindly before her mind even caught up to her actions. It was the voice on the other end that truly brought her back to reality. Crisp, clear, and most of all, alive, was her sister. She just listened to her voice, not even comprehending the words she was saying. Just that her sister was alive and everything was back to normal. 'For a year.' A voice in her head remarked. She ignored it.

"Katniss?" The angelic voice ask and she smiled. All the worries went away.

It was worth it.

"Prim?" She whispered and exited the car, all thoughts on hold.

"Where are you? I just woke up in this house and-"

"Oh, I was just out for a bit, you know, getting food." 'Not suspicious at all.' The voice said sarcastically. She opened and closed the door and they continued their conversation face to face. Her shock wasn't as… shocking as she's assumed it would be. She just smiled and hugged the blonde closely. Nothing out of the ordinary. 'Except that you didn't let go...'

"Katniss?" Prim laughed as she released her from her grip. "What was that?" Her smile was infectious.

"Oh, it's just Haymitch patched you up but he couldn't say if you would make it through." She looked down, avoiding the pestering eyes and walked into the other room, sitting on the sofa.

"Really? I feel perfectly fine, great even." Katniss just nodded. "Anyway, speaking of Haymitch, where is he?" Prim leaped over happily a plopped on an old couch beside her sister.

"His house." She shrugged, no better explanation.

"Well, let's go see him, tell him I'm okay." Prim beamed bright, always thinking of other people.

"That might not be the best idea." Katniss replied meekly. Her heart pounded at the anticipation of seeing Prim's reaction. 'How you'd sold your soul to bring her back from the dead.'

"What you guys fight about this time?" Prim smirked knowing Haymitch and the brunette's personalities clashed constantly. Her mind was blissfully oblivious. Katniss intended to keep it that way.

"What do you remember?" She interrupted quickly.

"Well, just you telling me it would be okay, then I passed out. And I am fine, just like you said." Prim laughed joyously. 'If only you knew.' She jumped up, put on a song, and began dancing around pulling Katniss along, swaying and jumping.

It was so upbeat and fun.

She would never have listened to it under normal circumstances.

"What? No, 'Prim, turn this crap off and stop jumping around'?" She mocked jokingly.

Katniss grinned and shook her head, "No, I like it."

Prim immediately stopped and turned on her, "Who are you and what have you done with my sister?" It wasn't serious but Katniss frowned. Prim couldn't have known that she set off a chain reaction in her sister's head that made her doubt everything she'd just done. She was so confused and dizzy. Their moment was over and she was back to brooding and thinking. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm- I'm just going to get some shut eye. Goodnight." She almost ran away, thinking about how this was just the beginning and how she knew it couldn't end well for her.
