The Trackjacker And The Mockingjay (Katniss Everdeen X F.OC)

-Separated-

It was maybe half an hour after the screaming had stopped that Katniss realized that it was done, that she was sitting on the beach and not in the forest.

"Oh, it seems that you are back to the land of the living." She looked up, Johanna twirling her axe, almost bored. "It has been a while."

"Wha--" "It's your lovely protector." She nodded to the right, Katniss looking over to see Percy and Beetee sitting together as the man was once again relegated to being the medic with Mags sitting with an out of it Finnick. "She like marched out, more like stumbled on toothpick legs, out of the jungle, as if the jabberjays didn't affect her and, bless my cold heart with the sight, held you until it was done before just hauling you up and carrying you down to the beach we are at right now... Truly, you should have meant it when you wifed her because that was hot."

Katniss was having a hard time following, requiring a moment for her mind to catch up... Yeah, she is able to connect memories to the words but it felt like she wasn't in her own body when that happened. It was like watching a movie and she wasn't part of the scene but she was, and that had been her body.

"Prim?"

"Oh don't worry she's fine, trust me, not only the districts but the Capitol itself would rebel if something happened to her."

Katniss sighed, grabbing her face for a moment.

"Who's Annie?" She asked to distract herself.

"So that's who Finnick heard..."

"Is she the one that went--" "Insane? Yeah. Annie Cresta, victor of the 70th, watched her district partner be beheaded in front of her and almost drowned in a freak flood that accidentally invaded the arena."

"And Finnick loves her?"

"Yeah... Love's weird." Johanna sighed. "And you... Don't throw it away while you still have it... You'll miss it fierce once it is gone with no way back." She said, her voice sounding distant momentarily, as if she knew the feeling.

The moment was broken tho when a still iffy Finnick called out that Beetee had a plan.

And Beetee told them the plan... What? The author has two part in HG fics she actually doesn't enjoy writing, the fog and Beetee rehashing that plan... Deal with it ;) at least I am not being evil... Yet.

"Percy... You know..."

"I know..."

Both sitting in the sand, Percy playing with her black ring as she watched the sunset and Katniss watched the sunset on her.

"If this plan works we will need to kill them."

"I know... I'll do anything for you." She smiled at her, Katniss seeing the new scratches and none-bleeding cuts left by the birds. "I promised to protect you long ago, I'll do just that."

"Long ago... It was only one year ago."

"But it feels longer doesn't it?"

"... Yeah."

"So let's help them and we'll leave after alright?"

"Alright."

Percy smiled, making it hard to believe the end would come soon.

And if Johanna's words are true... She'll mourn this once fake love for the rest of the life.

Percy, Percy, Percy... You hopeless girl, believing that the first kiss was just a show... Let's see yourself convinced that this one it fake too.
