The Girl Who Lived.

Chapter 19.

"O-Owen?" I stutter. "Lilly! You're ok!" My presumed dead brother says rushing over to me. He wraps me in a hug and I am stunned. I hug him back and sigh. The belt is still on my arm but it has been loosend, I look at Chaffs belt and give a sad smile. "Owen, you're alive?! I saw your dead body though. How is this possible?!" I say looking at my brother. "It was all a houx. It was a fake-the body that is-and I escaped. I hid and found my way to 13." He says. 13 is real, they had saved us. Beete and Finnic weren't lying. Haymitch runs over to me and hugs me. He knows about what happened with the Jabber Jays. He is the only one that I knew was alive and not in the arena that I cared about. The men explained to me what happened. After Beete and I passed out Katniss shot an arrow with the wire atached into the forcefeald and District 13 came and retreaved us. I have no words. "Are our parents ok too?" I ask Owen. He gives a sad shake of his head. "No, their death was real. I'm so sorry Lilly." My brother says. He is 38 now, 8 years older than last time I saw him. He is 20 years older than me and I love him still, but I feel hurt because of what he did. He lied and ran away from his problem. He left our family. He left me, his 10 year-old sister, alone with our aging parents to be used as a personal servant, to be left for dead. "Owen, why did you do it? Why did you fake your own death? Why did you leave me?" I ask my brother. "I had to. I did it for the greater good. I did it because the plan was already in action. I was salectid to fake their death and come to 13 and fight. I know it seems bad right now but you will understand." He says. Katniss stumbles into the room holding a syringe. "So it's you and a syringe against the Capital?" Haymitch says taking the syringe from her. She then attacks him, scratching him acrost the face. She is knocked out and taken back to were she came from. Haymitch is taken away to be treated. It is just the 4 of us now. "Lilly, what you did, in both of your games, is the bravest thing." Plutarch says looking at me. "What did you do?" Owen asks, he had not had access to watch my games. "I used the arena as a weapon. I blew up a tribute in the first minute, I dified the Capital. I did the District 12 salute, to send the people that died off, I showed sadness for the ones that were supost to be my enimes." I say looking at Chaffs belt. "Who gave you that belt?" My brother asks. "Chaff. He gave it to me to remember him. He acted like a father for me, other than Haymitch, and he's gone." I say sadly. Owen puts an arm around me. "I love you Lilly. I am so glad to have you back. We are back together." Owen says hugging me. I hug him tightly and sigh. "I love you too Owen. I missed you so much. I thought I was alone when Ma and Pa died. You were in a dream I had. You blamed me for your death-your suposed death-you blamed me for their death." I sob. Finnic comes over and puts his strong arms around the both of us. "Lilly, I would never blame you for anything. You are my baby sister. You are one of the last things a care about." Owen says. He lets go leaving me in Finnics arms. I hug him back. "Lilly, you are a fighter. You were the youngest victor ever. You went through so much more than someone your age should." Finnic says. He lets me go and we all talk. "Oh and Lilly, I have some people to show you." Owen says as the District 13 plane lands. I walk with him to a hospital, I need treatment for wounds I got in the arena. I am set up and Owen leaves the room. After a little he comes back with some other people. It is a woman and a small boy. "Lilly, this is my wife, Marry, and my son, John." Owen says introducing me to the two people. I have a sister in law! And a nephew! "Hi, I'm Lilly. Owens sister. I am a victor." I say shaking Marry's hand. "This is aunt Lilly? She doesn't look much bigger than me." The little boy asks Owen. "Yes, this is her. She is only 18." Owen says to John. I hop off the table I was on and kneel down in front of John. "Hi. It's nice to meet you. How old are you?" I say to my nephew. "I'm 6." He says hiding behind my brother. "Well, that's a big age. You know, I was only 12 when I won the Hunger games." I say. He must have been born when I was 13. "Really? That's really young." He says, coming closer to me. He gets close enough I could touch him, but I don't, I don't want to scare him off. He then suddenly leaps into my arms with a hug. I hug him back just as tightly. "Well, it seems like he likes you." Marry says. Haymitch walks into the room and smiles. He walks over to my and my nephew and puts a hand on my shoulder. "You did good, Sweetheart." Haymitch says. He hands me an envolope. John lets me go and I open it. It has the bracelets Haymitch gave me, the ring from my 18th birthday, the locket Peeta gave me, and my mothers butterfly necklace. I pull the jewellery out of the envelope and smile. I put each one on ending with the butterfly necklace. "You have Ma's necklace?" Owen asks. "Yes. It was my district token for my first games." I respond. We all talk until we are told we have to go to bed. I am put under medical opservation because I am deemed 'Unfit for work until further notice.' which I don't mind. I would not have to do anything until tolled otherwise. 'My small family I made has grown. I am not alone. I have my brother back.'
