—Rose's POV—

I opened my eyes and immediately saw a very bright light. I looked around and saw that I was in what seems a hospital room. Some machines were connected to me and were making sounds that were upsetting me

The door of the room was opened and I saw a woman coming to me. She was small but beautiful. She seems really classy as well

She got close to me and start looking at the machines

"Where am I?" I asked

My throat hurts so much that I start coughing immediately. She turned to me and gave me water

"Don't worry, Miss. Roberts, you are ok now" she said

I drank the water and again looked at her

"Are my friends ok?........can I see them?"

She didn't answered me instead continued to look at the machines

"You are a very lucky girl. We thought that you were going to die but again you proved that you are invincible" she said then looked at her notes

"I want to see my friends" I said not caring about what she just said "Is Finnick ok?"

"I think that that's impossible. I don't know if Mr. Odair is ok"

She then got out of the room leaving me alone again. Why was that impossible? Are they dead? Isn't Finnick in here?

I closed my eyes and start thinking........how did I survived that?

The door was opened again but I thought it was the doctor again, so I didn't opened my eyes. I heard steps and then felt a presence by my side

"Hello, Miss. Roberts"

That voice made me shake with fear. I quickly opened my eyes and saw that it was President Snow. My eyes widened and I shook my head, not believing that this was happening to me. I heard him laughing

"I have to say that I'm really impressed with your strength. Yet again you survived" he said

"What can I say.........I'm incredible" I said trying not to show how scared I really was

He laughed again

"You always were one of my favorites. The way you fight. The way you can capture everyone's attention. For me that is a gift"

"What do you want for me?"

He gave me a little smirk and start touching my hair

"I want to see you suffer. I want to see you screaming. I want to see you in pain. In fact I want to watch while you die" he said then turned around

He nodded to the peacekeepers and they came to me. They made me get up and instantly I felt pain in my whole body

They start dragging me to the door while Snow just watched

"You will lose Snow! I will make sure of that" I said

He laughed but louder this time

"I always win, Miss. Roberts"

"I promise that I will kill you Snow and normally I never break my promises!" I said before the peacekeepers got me out of the room

They dragged me to another room and threw me on the floor. The pain in my arm was killing me

One of them looked at me and then got close to me and made me sit on a chair

After what seems like hours, a man entered the room and went to a table that was close to the wall

He picked some things and then looked at me. I saw that he had knives on his hands. I looked at his face and saw him smiling at me

"I always wanted to meet the girl who made everyone fall on their knees and here she is right in front of me. Oh god, this will be so funny"

He start rubbing my cheek

"I will be careful to not harm this beautiful face, doll"

I couldn't hear him anymore, it was disgusting me. I looked directly at his eyes and spit on his face

He start laughing and then cleaned his face with his shirt. He turned around and went a little far from me

"I watched your games. You love to use knives, don't you?........Well today we will use them but in a different way" he said and then aimed a knife at me

My eyes widened and I looked at him in shock

"Oh don't be like that, doll. This is going to be fun.......at least for me"

I need someone to save from this hell

————————

I felt someone carrying me. I couldn't believe what just happened. The pain that I was feeling was horrible

My body went in contact with a cold floor

"Someone will check on you soon" I heard one of them saying but I didn't looked at them

I looked at my hands and saw blood in them. They went too far. I never thought that this was possible

I don't know if I will be able to forget about this

"Who is in there?" I heard someone asking

"Johanna......." I whispered but in the silence she could hear it

"Rose, oh my god. I thought........I thought you were dead" she said

"I wish I was" I said

I heard screams. I know that voice.......

"Is that........"

"Yes, it's Peeta" Johanna completed my phrase

Slowly, I turned around so now I was facing the ceiling

"Where are the others?" I asked

"I don't care. They left us behind"

Before I could say anything else, we heard steps getting close to us. The door of my cell was opened and, the same lady from earlier, got in

She start examining me

"Jake went to far this time. He could have killed her" she said to the peacekeeper, who just shrugged

She shook her head and start helping me

She didn't seemed that bad but I still had this feeling that I couldn't trust her

The only thing that I know in this moment is that I did a promise. A promise that I will keep. Even if that means that I have to die while doing it
