//Peetas pov//
"I'm so sorry" I say, I stand up and walk over to Miss Everdeen and embrace her.
I've only talked to her a few times, but it seems I know how she feels. She has lost so many people in her life, and is at the end of the line and is ready to give up.
But so has Katniss.
"Peeta"? Katniss's cracked voice echoes behind me.
I turn letting go of her mother.
"Katniss" I say walking over to her, leaning by her side.
"Are you alright"? I ask, taking her hand again.
//Katniss's pov//
My mind recalls what happened,
The fire.
The flames.
The screams.
Plutarch walks in as I remember hitting the ground, covered in hot embers.
"Where's Prim"?!! I ask.
Everyones faces turn glum, looking down at the ground, or nothing at all.
I look at Peeta who just stares down at our linked hands.
"Where is she"? I ask him.
"Is she..."? I trail off.
She can't be.
"I'm so sorry Katniss" Peeta tells me meeting my eyes.
Prim is dead.
Prim is gone.
And I won't be able to see her ever again.
I don't begin to cry.
Or scream.
Or flail my arms or legs.
I'll save that for when I have time.
Now I have to kill Snow.
