Hey guys! New chapter! :D

~THG~

"Tracker Jacker." he says. Those two words took all the strength I had in me.

I let out some sound from my throat, a mixture of fear and pain. It's true she has it. I put my head in my hands. No. This can't be happening. I turn my head and see Rose. She's panicking. She knows what it is. We told her years ago. I see a tear fall from her eyes, followed by more. I pull her close to me and she wraps her arms around me. I can feel my eyes tear up, but I don't let tears escape. I have to try and be strong. I move Rose's curtain of hairs away from my eyes and look over at Katniss. she's sobbing and her hand is over her eyes.

As soon as I see her I can't control it. A tear falls and after that, I can't seem to stop them. This IS exactly what she was afraid of. Katniss told me, when I was trying to convince her to have children, that she didn't want to have any because she was afraid the capitol would hurt them. Once she told me of a nightmare where snow hijacked them, and later that night I had the same exact dream. Our worst nightmare just came true.

We're all sitting here crying, and I don't think I can do anything to stop it this time. I can't even seem to stop myself.

I shut my eyes and try and take deep breaths. I take one of my hands and dry my eyes. I pull back and look at Rose. She's terrified. I pull her close to me and rest my chin on her head.

The doctor lets out an awkward cough. We let go of each other and look at him. "I'm very sorry about your diagnosis, but there is good news.

"What is it?" we all say at the same time.

"Well, it seems for some reason the tracker Jacker venom just showed up in her system...Peeta how old we're you when they gave it to you?"

"Around 17." I manage to choke out.

"Okay, well that makes sense. It appears the type of venom they put in you was very strong. Apparently it transferred into Rose's DNA, and well...now she has it." he says dropping the clipboard.

"Well what's the good news?" I hear Katniss ask.

"Well for one, it's impossible for your son Caleb to get it. It can only be passed down once for some reason. And for the second one, well, there may be a cure."

My jaw drops. There might be a cure? Why didn't we know of this before?

"Well one of the scientists here in the Capitol has been trying a few things out, and he thinks he might have found it this time." oops. I must have asked my question out loud.

"Well how do we know if it works?" I hear Rose say. That's the first thing she's said. I guess it all have us some hope.

"Well...we don't. That's the thing. We haven't had anyone to test it on. And we just now learned that he might have had a cure. And quite frankly, Rose and Peeta, you're the only ones we know of who have it."

"So what you're saying is...you need to test it on someone." I say.

"Bingo. Now there's a couple choices here. You can wait untill he's 100% sure it works, or we can just go ahead and give it to Rose"

"So you're saying we test Rose, or there is no cure?"

"Sadly, yes." the doctor says. "But it's up to you."

Wait...they want to use my daughter as an experiment? But if we wait untill he's sure, well he'll never know its sure untill he tests it out. And I know how bas those flashbacks are, they're horrible. And Rose seeing what I'm seeing? I shudder at the thought. I can't put my child through that. But I can't let her do this either. Suddenly it hits me.

"Test me." I say. Everyone turns to look at me.

"Peeta." says Katniss, her eyes wide.

"Dad." Rose whispers.

", you've had the venom longer than Rose here. The consequences will be much worse for you."

"Like what?"

"Well. Some of your memories may be permanently changed. And if it doesn't work... Well we just don't know what will happen."

"Give it to me."

~THG~

"But mockingjays were never a weapon. They're just songbirds. Right?" –Madge

I love that quote. FORESHADOWING! Okay, I don't know why but I want to recommend to you this song called "Kiss It Better" by He is We. Look it up on YouTube. It reminds me so much of Peeta and Katniss! But, it didn't happen. :P And while you're there look up the Finnick and Annie videos by Mainstay Pro. OMG they're so good! I love Finnick!

Okay why am I telling you all this crap? BYE! :D (sorry for such a long author's note :P)
