I run in the direction of the yell until I reach Max. He screams and cries and is sitting next to the body of a girl.

When I get closer, I can tell who it is.

The cannon for the girl next to Max sounds as I move. Yep, District 10 female.

The wind is getting loud. I think there's a storm.

"MAX WHAT HAPPENED?" I yell. If I speak normally he wont hear me over the noise of the storm.

"I DON'T KNOW! I SAW HER AND IT ALL HAPPENED SO FAST, I plunged IT IN HER NECK AND THEN SHE FELL!" He whimpers and cries. I think he regrets doing that, I think he's haunted himself by harming her.

"WHAT ABOUT ASH?" I ask.

"I.. I... SHE'S GONE. SHE PASSED YESTERDAY, IN THE NIGHT. THORN GOT TO HER TOO FAST."

"WELL WHERE'S THORN?"

"I THINK I JUST SAW HIM GO THAT WAY!"

"I'M GOING TO GET HIM! YOU STAY HERE!"

I run in the opposite way and sprint up to Thorn. I swing my axe at him from behind,  making a small cut yet a large impact. He falls to the floor and scrambles back up, swinging his sword. I grab it by the end and force it up, using my leg to kick him in the stomach. He flies backwards and I throw my axe at his arm but her catches it. He gets back up and aims the axe at me. I quickly catch him off guard and grab my axe back, throwing it and not missing this time. It hits him square in the stomach and he falls on his back. The cannon immediately goes off.

Then another one.

Max walks up to me. "Chia. It's just me and you."

But suddenly I feel a sharp pain in my back.

Ash?

She slowly removes the blade from my back and the pain spreads through my body.

"Are you sure about that?"

"Ash why are you doing this? How are you alive?" I manage to get out. I lay on the snow, struggling to keep breathing. Before I can notice, Max is next to my on the ground, also struggling to stay alive. The wound is in the front, in his chest.

"I need to win. All I ever crave is winning and glory and now is my chance to prove myself. I will win. That cannon was me. But i'll never tell you how I came back to life." She spits out.

Max looks like he's going to give in. His breathing slowed, eyes closing.

Then the cannon sounds.

"MAX!" I scream at the top of my lungs. It felt like I was ripping my throat raw.

Tears start streaming down my face. "WHY? STOP DOING THIS ASH!"

Ash snickers and stares at me. "No. Deal with it."

She holds her sword high, and brings it down into my abdomen.

I can barely breathe and am shaking violently. My hearing starts to fade and so does my eyesight.

The corners of my eyes black out and my breathing slows to a stop. The heart in my chest is now motionless.

Goodbye Panem.
