The Hunger Games: Plot Twists

THG: Plot Twist #6

Plot Twist #6

Seneca Crane let Katniss and Peeta eat the nightlock berries at the end of the 74th Hunger Games.

Katniss really was in love with Peeta. It wasn't an act. Ever since they had kissed in the cave, she had truly loved him. It was that moment that sparked her feelings, that moment that filled her with warmth and made her never want to let go.

Peeta really loved her too. He had his whole life. Peeta just never had the courage to tell her, he thought she was dating Gale.

Gale. He always had been a tricky one. Katniss loved him with all her heart, but it was a different kind of love. She loved him as a brother. He was family to her. Gale would be crushed when he saw Katniss tell Peeta she loved him. Not as crushed as Prim though.

Prim. She was so fragile and easy to break. It had just gotten worse when Katniss went into the games.

So, before Katniss pulled out those berries, she looked up and whispered something. "Prim? Gale? Mom? I'm sorry. I love you." She blinked away tears that pricked at her eyes.

Then she turned to Peeta. "Stay with me?" She asked softly as she extended her berry filled hand.

"Always." Peeta replied as he took the berries.

"One.... Two....." They counted down together as they raised the berries to their mouths and grabbed each others hands. "Three." they finished, gulping down the berries and instantly dying. Dying just after Peeta squeezed Katniss's hand a little harder.
