Forever And Always | Finnick And Annie Love Story

Nightmares

I'm running. I have no idea where, but I don't stop. I hear screams behind me and one by one I recognize them, Mags, Eve, Cliff. The worst was Alistair, once I heard his, I stumbled to the ground. I didn't stop running though, I got right back up and kept going. I could feel my legs getting tired as I start to slow down. I start to hear growls, I turn around and see the tiger mutts from my games. I hear a snarl and I turn to the other side, the baboon mutts from the quarter quell. All of a sudden I see them pounce on me and I squeeze my eyes shut, preparing for my death. After a few seconds, I open my eyes, the mutts dissapeared, I'm in the tribute center. I see a peacekeeper come up to me with a gun in one hand and a bloody whip in the other. I turn around and see Cliff and Eve, chained up and dead. I feel a pinch on my wrists and I look up, I was chained to a pole. I looked back at the peacekeeper, he had a smirk on his face as he pointed the gun at me.
Peace: Go to hell, bitch.
The next thing I hear is a gun shot, I closed my eyes, waiting for the pain to kick in, but it never does. I open my eyes and I'm in the ocean. I look around and I see a figure swimming near me. As it gets closer, I see that it's Finnick in his quarter quell outfit. I feel his strong arm wrap around my waist as he pulls me out of the water. Once we make our way to land, we gasped for air. I look around noticing my surroundings, the cornucopia from the quarter quell. Finnick pulls me up and wraps me in a hug. Suddenly his grip loosens and he gasps. I look at him confused and suddenly he falls on top of me. I squirm out of his body and see what happened. He was impaled with an ax, a very familiar ax. I start to sob as I flip him over and see his lifeless face. I feel a presence behind me and I look up, Alistair. I start putting the pieces together, Alistair killed Finnick.
A: You bastard!!!!!
Al: You let me die, so I killed someone you loved.
A: I thought you were good.
Al: None of us are good, we're killers. Some *points at Annie* more than others *points to himself*
A: *cries* You killed him, you killed the man I loved!
Al: Well maybe I will kill you too so that you can join each other in hell.
A: Go ahead, asshole.
With that, he swung his ax at me. I closed my eyes, waiting to feel the sharp blade tear through my flesh.

I woke up screaming for Finnick. I felt the bed, soaked with sweat. I heard my door slam open, causing me to shriek and jump. In popped Johanna with a worried yet slightly annoyed face.
J: God damn, red, I can hear you from my room.
A: I'm sorry, It was just a nightmare, I'm fine.
Johanna climbed up on the bed and sat down next to me.
J: Cmon, red, I know you better than that. Wanna tell me what it was about?
A: I feel like if I do, I'll never stop crying.
J: That bad?
A: Worse.
J: Well it's ok, cause that's all it was, a nightmare.
A: What if.......what if Finnick doesn't come back?
J: Ann, he's the strongest, most bravest person I know and he has you to come back to. I am 100% sure he is coming back alive.
A: *smiles* Thanks Jo.
J: No problem, now get some sleep!
I laid down on the bed as Johanna sat up and watched me. She was such a good friend, she always made sure I was ok. She is probably the bravest person I've met. She was tortured for standing up for me and Peeta. She helped me in those games. She is truly amazing.
