Ophelia searched the bunker for Katniss, she felt her anxiety bubble up inside her as she was walked the quiet halls.

"Katniss?" She called sticking her head through a door; no answer.

Her ribs were starting to ache again, and she hated that. It reminded her of the Arena, and mostly of Finnick.

She couldn't even imagine what he was going through, being held captive by Snow plus being tortured. It made her stomach turn every time it crossed her mind.

She was starting to feel dizzy and light headed, Ophelia reached for the wall as she started to lose her balance. Her brown hair covered her face as she leaned on the wall catching her breath.

"Ophelia, are you alright?" She turned her head at the sound of a chirpy voice behind her, Effie stood at her side with a look of worry on her face.

"I'm fine." She lied; she felt sick.

"Why don't I take you to the nurse and get you checked out?" Her question came out more like a statement, so Ophelia agreed and followed Effie to the nurse.

The nurse entered the room and flashed her a smile before sitting down on a chair in front of her.

"What seems to be the problem?" She asked holding a pen and clipboard tight to her chest.

Ophelia sighed before speaking. "I just feel a little dizzy and light headed. I'm fine, honestly." She looked down at the clipboard and nodded.

"I see you have a history of panic attack's and anxiety." She looks down to her hands then back to the nurse, refusing to answer. "Have you been taking your medication the doctor prescribed?" She nodded, and again she lied; she hadn't taken them in a few days.

"Well, I'm gonna send you to your bunk to get some rest. I think you'll be fine tomorrow." She stands and calls a few guards to escort Ophelia to her bunk.

She was awoken from her slumber by Effie, her eyes fluttered open at the sound of his voice.

"Ophelia, you need to wake up and come with me." She said and she quick long sat up and then stood.

"What's going on?" She asks, her voice hoarse and raspy.

"Follow me." She ignored her question but she did as she said.

She leaves her room and shivers as the cold air hits her, she hated how cold it was here.

The two walked through the halls until they reached a door, Effie pushed it open. Ophelia walks into the room and is struck by the smell of a hospital; she almost gagged.

Her eyes traveled around the room, doctors and nurses ran around circling several people. She walked to the closest patient, she squeezed in between the doctors to see. What she saw completely shocked her.

"Finnick."
