Two voices.

Coriolanus and Sejanus. The latter one addmiting to treason with his words.

Looking around myself I quickly opened the seal, taking the jabberjay into my hands.

"I'm sorry." I whispered to the amimal, closing my eyes as I snapped it's neck.

Nessesary evil, right? That's what they named it.

Even tought I felt guilty about taking it's life I was more relieved. After all if I hadn't gotten into the intership at Doctor Gaul, Sejanus would be hung by now.

Biting my cheek from the inside in order not to cry I put the mockingjay back in it's cage, hiding the pilot in my bra.

The lenghts one could go just to save their beloved was crazy. The more when you realized that you wouldn't stop on killing a bird if it could change antyhing.

Curious eyes were turned towards us, as I recognized my mistake.

"We will talk about that girl in private." I added, letting the wspomnienie of a female be a disroute for everyone who listeneted.

How he addmited to Coriolanus that he would help those rebeliants.

How he said that he wanted to help them.

How it seemed for him to be a good cause to fight for.

"Do you even care about me?" I asked him with grief, as we were alone.

"Wh-what do y-you mean?" He stuttered, as he took a step backwards.

"You know what! Do you have a death wish?" My voice was shaking, as I couldn't get a hold of my minds. Of the thoughts how it could could go wrong in many ways.
