EPILOGUE

"Mo-oom!" Kinsley marched into Arya's room, her long, red hair flying behind her. Arya and Johanna were laying in bed still, as it was early in the morning. "What?" Johanna groaned. "Your Mom is trying to sleep!"

Arya smiled and sat up too, shaking her head. "It's alright, Johanna."

It had been 19 years ever since the rebellion had finished, and now Arya and Johanna were happily married, and had two children of their own, Kinsley and Colton Mason-Green.

Kinsley was a moody 15 year old, and in the stages of teenage problems. In looks, she took after her Arya, long red, wavy hair and hazel eyes. They could be identical if not for the age beginning to show on Arya's face.

Colton was 13, and enjoyed torturing his older sister. He looked more like Johanna, with shorter, brown hair and chocolate brown eyes.

Even though Arya and Johanna were biologically related to both Colton and Kinsley, they both called Arya, 'Mom,' and Johanna, 'partner,' short for 'partner in crime.'

Their nickname for Johanna was quite accurate, really. Arya was genuinely surprised at how well Johanna interacted with children, but eventually got used to the fact.

"What's wrong, Kinsley?" Arya asked.

"Colton put my perfume in my shampoo bottle, my shampoo in my conditioner, and my conditioner in my perfume bottle! The little brat ruins everything!"

The two parents had to smile at each other before dealing with the issue and getting ready for the day.

After sorting out the issue and eating breakfast, Arya got dressed into a gray short-sleeved shirt, and black yoga pants, and put her hair into a ponytail. Today, she wanted to clean out the attic to make it into a surprise birthday gift for Kinsley, because she figured that the two siblings were tired of sharing the same room.

She climbed up the steps and laid her eyes on a couple of dusty, cardboard boxes, and decided that her goal for today would be to sort that out. Her eyes then found an old music player, and so she pressed play, wondering if it still worked.

Surprisingly enough, it did, and it started to play one of her favorite songs, This Love, written by Taylor Swift.

She smiled to herself as she sat down and opened up a cardboard box, coughing slightly as dust flew up into her face.

Ontop was a photo album, so she pulled it out. She slowly began to flip through the pages, looking at the photos, bringing back memories that she had forgotten.

Clear blue water

High tide came and brought you in

And I could go on and on, on and on, and I will

Skies grew darker

Currents swept you out again

And you were just gone and gone, gone and gone

A photo of a couple of months after Katniss' wedding, when Arya and Johanna had visited Annie and her newborn son, helping the woman and baby get used to living without their father and husband. Arya and Johanna were all smiles, splashing water at each other.

In silent screams

In wildest dreams

I never dreamed of this

Next was a photo taken of all of the victors that were still alive at a reunion for a year after the rebellion. Johanna and Arya stood in the middle row, grinning at the camera, hand in hand.
