Katniss POV
I've been stuck in one big nightmare, and I can't get out. I see the bombs raining down over Prim. I see my mother's pale face after the death of my father. I see my own blood in a puddle on the floor.
"Katniss." I hear Rue shriek. I run to her just as the spear enters her body.
"No!" I scream, trying to move forward, but I'm stuck. It's like my feet are glued to the floor. The only things I can move are my eyes. They follow the beam of light coming from in front of me.
This is it. I think to myself. I can finally die.
"It's not your time." I hear Prim whisper. "You've got to stay."
"Why?" I ask her, screaming. "What do I have left. Who would I stay for?"
"For Peeta." She whispers. And with that, my eyes snap open.
