It's been a week since Cassie was taken by the Capitol to be in the games. I felt to ashamed to say goodbye to her because I said I would take her place. She was to young to die. She would never make it out. I began to cry. A could of depression has consumed me. I run out of the house. To the fence and climb over it. I run deep into the forest. A thought came to my head. A terrible thought. The tears were still streaming out of my eyes. I had hidden a gun out here somewhere to hunt once in awhile. It took my mind off things. I go to the hollow tree and fetch it. I play with it in my hands. This is your fault I tell myself. This is the only way you can make it up to her. I take the gun to the nearby lake. This was it. My final thoughts, my final decision, my final words. I walk knee deep into the lake. I load the gun. I aim of at my head. 

 "Goodbye Cassie, I'll see you.. Real soon." I say crying. Then I pull the trigger. The world goes black as I call into the lake.
