CHAPTER 19

Later that day, Arya got up from a quick rest, and got dressed into a cute skater dress that was a dark color, almost black. She brushed her hair out, but took a couple of strands and made it into a bubble braid.

She felt almost nervous, because she felt an uneasy feeling. As happy as this day was supposed to be, what would happen after the execution is done? Would there be commotion? If we had the 77th Hunger Games with the capitol's children, would the rebels become as bloodthirsty as the capitol people became, and would we have it every year after that?

And then, still in the back of her mind, she still missed Kinsley.

Arya decided that her head was going to explode if she sat on her bed in solitude for another minute, so she got up and started walking to the hovercraft where the other victors were waiting.

She took a seat, and it suddenly took off. She wasn't expecting this, and the alarm must have shown on her face, because Johanna reached over and grabbed her hand. "You're alright..."

Arya nodded, and the victors all around her looked at their intertwined hands with pity.

The rest of the ride was in silence, and they all walked out confidently once it landed. They all formed a line, and Arya stood next to Johanna at the end of the line.

Soon, drums began to pound and the crowd got larger and louder. They were all screaming, and once Katniss appeared, it began to get deafening.

Nevertheless, Katniss still walked cooly and confidently up to the spot where she would shoot the arrow into Snow's heart.

Arya could feel her own heart rate increasing, and Johanna looked pale. Johanna weakly held out a trembling hand, and Arya gratefully took it, her palm sweaty, but still her hand, and still the same Johanna Mason that she had became friends, best friends, and then lovers to.

"May your arrow fly straight as your heart is pure."

Katniss loaded the bow and arrow, and took a deep breath in, aiming it at Snow.

But suddenly, as quick as Arya could blink, the bow was aimed at Coin, and the arrow released.

The crowd gasped as it hit her directly in the heart, and her body flopped down to the ground. There was silence for a minute, which was filled with Snow's choking laughter.

The crowd rushed forward, and Johanna tried to pull Arya out of the crowd's way, but failed, so she was pushed to the ground and everything went black as her head hit the ground.
