-Peeta's POV-
I'm in the arena, someone's just destroyed the arena and I can't find anyone. I look up in the sky to see if there's anyone coming to save us.
There I see it clearly, Katniss is being pulled up by a hovercraft. Not just any hovercraft but the one that takes the dead bodies. You can see her lying there, dead.
I feel tears prick my eyes. Katniss, the girl I knew I truely. Is dead.
I run towards the lightning tree to see Beetee lying there by the tree. He's been electrified, I spot Finnick kneeling in the bushes frozen. I see a big puddle of blood and Katniss' bow and her sheath of arrows in the middle of it. I walk closer and see a parachute with her arrows and bow. I open it to see the pearl I gave her only a day or two ago, and my locket.
By the parachute I find a very bloody pin. I pick it up and wipe it on my wetsuit. It's Katniss' Pin. I pick up the parachute, putting the pearl, locket and her pin in and clasping it shut. I tie it to my belt and throw her sheath of arrows over my shoulder and grab her bow.
I turn around to see no Beetee and Finnick calling as he climbs up a ladder. I run over and climb up the ladder, following Finnick.
When I get into the hovercraft I'm met by Haymitch, Plutarch and Finnick while there are nurses around an unconscious Beetee. The hovercraft starts moving again, I go and sit against one of the walls and burst out crying. Haymitch comes over and sits next to me. "It's okay bread boy. You've been though this before, you'll get through it" he says patting my shoulder.
"Last time I had Katniss though. She's not here!" I cry.
"I thought we got her?" he asks confused. I shake my head.
"She died. I saw her go up in the hovercraft, when she blew up the arena she must have dropped everything when she was blown back because it was all in a puddle of her own blood. She left her bow, sheath of arrows and this parachute" I say undoing the parachute from my belt and handing it to him. He clips it open and is shocked to find her pin.
"This came off her?" he asks.
"Yeah, the pin broke" I say twisting it in his hand to show the snapped pin at the back.
"Ahh. I know about the locket, but this pearl?" he says confused.
"I have it to her two or three days ago when we were all on the beach, before going to the lightning tree"
"Right.." he says still partly confused. "When you saw the hovercraft, did it have anything on it?"
"Uhh after the gap closed it showed the Capitol symbol but I thought nothing of it because I thought all the bodies went to the Capitol then sent to their district" I say in between sniffles.
"Hmm well her body should arrive in District Twelve in two or less days so we'll keep checking"
"Thank you Haymitch" I say with silent tears. Haymitch nods and gets up, knowing I probably want to be alone.
After he goes I just stare at nothing, knowing she's gone and nothing can bring her back. My Girl on Fire. I could feel in those kisses on the beach and by the lightning tree that she was starting to really actually love me back.
I knew she wanted me to get out of there alive, she would do whatever it takes to keep me alive. And that's what she did, get me out of there alive. It was like it was her death wish to keep me alive in those games, not because she had to, it's because she wanted to.
Katniss sacrificed herself to get me out of that arena. I knew what it was in return for, it was for throwing her that loaf of bread when she was struggling to keep her sister and her mother alive. That's how she repaid me, by keeping me alive in those games, so I can go back to my family and like I kept her and her family alive with that loaf of bread.
I can hear them trying to talk to me but I refuse to talk. I feel like a part of me has been sucked out. I feel like just how Katniss explained her mother was like when her father died. Katniss.. how is her mother and Prim going to take it? Katniss was all her mother had left that reminded her of her father, you could tell they were father and daughter just by looking at them, just like Prim and their mother; identical. I just don't want Prim to starve, she won't have Katniss this time if her mother goes into depression again.
"I'll keep her alive for you Katniss, I'll do whatever it takes to keep her alive, for you" I whisper. Great I'm talking to myself, which is the first stage of going mental.
