(Katniss POV)
I'm on a laying on a table I have hand cuffs on. Several people are in the room, nurses, people in peacekeeper uniforms, I look around, and notice one person out of place, there's a man in one corner of the room with my mockingjay dress from before the 75th hunger games. A peacekeeper holds a gun to his head. Cinna. My heart races with happiness, I jump off the table and take one step toward him, he smiles at me, his lips form my name, then the gun goes off, the bullet killing him instantly with no blood. His body hits the floor, and I'm screaming, the gun goes off again, and the bullet hits my stomach, the blood pools in my hands quickly, I don't feel anything for some reason, but I can't stop screaming.
My eyes open, and I realize I'm screaming into the darkness of the night. I can just barely see Peeta through the darkness, tears stream down my face I catch Peeta yell above my scream, "It's not real Katniss, it's just a dream, it's just a dream!" He see's I'm awake and kisses me quickly before pulling me in for a hug. I let go of the rest of my tears, then someone nudges us, I jump in fear, but squint the darkness to see Annie, Finn, and Johanna. "We need to leave," Johanna says shakily. "They got Finnick, Beetee, and Gale," Annie says, when she says Finnick's name her voice changes and makes a   slight whimper. "What about Haymich," Peeta questions. "What about him," Johanna asks. "Well we can't just leave him here," Peeta states. "Why can't we, he's got a train car for shelter, and some food as well, if he runs out he can either surrender, or go find food elsewhere," Johanna says like it's no big deal. "Have you seen the condition he's in," Peeta questions angrily, "he's so depressed he might already be dead." "Okay, Peeta and Johanna you go get Haymich, Katniss and I will stay here and watch Finn," Annie concludes the conversation. Johanna rolls her eyes angrily and agree's. "K lets go idiot," Johanna says frustrated. Once they disappear into the dark Annie sets down Finn who has surprisingly been so well behaved during this whole thing. Annie's face immediately changes her face softens, and the tears begin to flow, "They shot him," she cries uncontrollably, "I don't even know if he's alive." I hug her and she just cries. And the more I think about it the more I wish I would have gone with Johanna and Peeta.
