The metal plate beneath me stops as my eyes adjust to the light around.

The salty air, the crash of waves. I look to see just as we are surrounded by water. This is good, Vic should be able to take care of herself until I can get to her. How I hate to admit it but she is very independent. I need her more than she probably needs me.

Looking around I see Katniss. She scans the area, just remember the plan, get to Katniss. Show her the bracelet Haymitch gave me.

Seconds later the buzzer goes off and I dive perfectly into the crashing waters, I swim and swim until I get to the cornucopia, once getting there I pull myself up and grab my trident at which another man comes behind me and I elbow him in the gut just as I turn to stick my trident in his side.

The cannons go off indicating another death as I run around the cornucopia I spot Katniss, she raises her bow to me just as I show her the golden bracelet, "You wouldn't shoot an ally now would you?"

"Where did you get that?" She says confused

"Who do you think?" I say raising my eyebrow at her as she lowers her bow.

I watch as Brutus with his spear runs in the direction I know vic was and I quickly make my way there. I widen my eyes as I watch her not realize I yell, "DUCK!" I say and she does just as it hits the metal cornucopia before it could get to him.

The breath I didn't know I kept in is released as I make eye contact with Vic blue eyes. The ones I miss so much.

We embrace each other and I scan her for any marks or cuts. Relieved I soften my gaze to her just to remember how beautiful she truly is. I'll get to call her my wife some day. I think just as Katniss voice rings out.

"FINNICK, PEETA!!"

I look back to see vics eyes in a confused phase, I can't help but feel sorrow for not being able to tell her. How I tell her everything. It's been so hard but soon she'll know. Once she's safe.

~

"I'll take first watch" I state as I hear Katniss snicker I glare over at her. Didn't she see how I saved her damn lovers life back there?

Pointing my trident at her, "you know what I did back there was called? Saving your lover boys damn life. So miss girl on fire, if I wanted to kill either of you, I would have done it by now." I kept my tone stern to get my point across as she looks down.

Yes I'm pretty pissed off but I guess not at Katniss, just at the game makers, or well snow. Hadn't we all gone through enough.

Once settled I glance over at vic who is leaning against a tree. The blonde strands of her hair blows against the wind. She's breath taking.

Going over by her I sit next to her, "Finnick. why did you save Peeta." The question I knew she'd ask eventually. Why.

Complicating how I was going to answer this question without giving it away, I take her hand in mine, rubbing her soft delicate fingers against mine.
"because Vic, I could see the same fear in Katniss eyes as I see in mine with you. I don't want to be the murderer, I want to know I tried everything I could to save his life, because truly, Katniss does love Peeta I don't want anyone to feel the pain of losing your everything." I wasn't lying though. It was the truth. Vic is my everything now, my only hope.

"You wouldn't lose me Finnick. I'd still be here even if I was 'gone'" I chuckle after her little statement, not cause it was funny but simply because she thinks I'm that strong without her.

"But I wouldn't be able to say I love you, see you, hold you, stay alive please vic. I wouldn't be able to feel again. I don't think a part of me would die without you. I think all of me would"
I glance in her eyes as she looks up at me. Her fingers brush my strands of hair. How I love her touch, her love.

"it's not up for you to save me Fin." She softly says as her lips part and I can't help but look at them as her eyes tell me differently.

"Really?" I say as I lean in to kiss her gently on the lips. She smiles a bit and we both pull each other closer. I let her rest her head against my chest as she messes with my hair.

She knew it was a weakness of mine and I relaxed with the sound of her voice and her touch that keeps me sane. Makes me feel loved.

~

My body aches, I could feel my throat cry, my eyes shut as I feel four hands on me and pull me into a cold substance. Water. I scream in pain as the puss filled bumps relive and to drown the cries out I go in the water to scream. Suddenly I hear a faint voice. Gripping her hand I know it's Vic as she rubs her fingers against my head and hair. My head lay perfectly on her lap as I rest, heal.

Flashbacks of the prior event come back to me.

"Shhh it's okay now" I hear vics voice soothing me as I snap from my trans.

Moments later I'm well enough to be back on my feet, I scan vic as I see a gash upon her forehead. I brush my thumb over it as she winced. "Vic.. let me help"

"Finnick no" she says as she bats my hand away I grab some of the water and clean her cut out ignoring her words. She's strong, but I know when she's in pain. I know her, I know she can't be strong forever. She knows I will always do what I can to be there.

"I almost lost you" she randomly blurts out and I chuckle.

"We woulda lost each other." I take her chin and make her look up to look at me.

"I look like a mess don't I" she states as I chuckle and shrug, "eh but you're my hot mess" I wink as I watch her giggle, the glint in her beautiful eyes, the perfect white teeth that show when I make a stupid comment. It's all that I need.

~

Finding a plan to power over the careers we stand in the middle of the cornucopia, the careers make their moves as I make mine and moments later find Vic with a guy from another district.

He thinks he can easily just kill her? My blood boils as I watch Vic glare at me to stay back. She makes her move and kicks him over as she stabs him, I pause in my footsteps watching her. It was more than hate, it was sadness as even when the cannon went off she didn't stop. She continued.

I grip her shoulder as she stops and leans back into me crying. I soothe her, warm her. I ache for her. Her heart.

Moments later the ground beneath us begin to shake as it spins I lose grip of Vic and just as I find her and Johanna as her Wild grey/blue eyes match mine she disappears into the waters.

"VIC!!" I scream out.

~

"Where is she??" Johanna says catching her breathe as we look around to see if we can find Vic.

Boom, a cannon goes off and my heart stops. No.

"I'm going in" I simply say as I dive in and look just as I see her beautiful lifeless body at the bottom.

Now is no time to break down as I grip her and pull her back up the other help.

I begin to cry as I begin CPR, "come on Vic WAKE UP! VIC WAKE UP!" I scream as her body stays lifeless.

After moments of trying, Johanna places her hand on my shoulder telling me she's gone, I can't believe that, I simply won't.

I try again and again as I cry and cry,

"Is she dead" Johanna says once more.

"Vic listen to me! Wake up. Please vic I love you" I say softly as I whisper to her and she moves her fingers slightly.
Her heartbeats back.
I relax and stop CPR as her eyes open frantically and she gasps for oxygen

My eyes fill with tears and emotion as we make eye contact she seemed confused at first.

"Vic you died! Your heart stopped beating. I couldn't find you!! You were gone. I thought it was too late vic. I thought I was too late!"
My voice shakes and she cups her hands to my face

"I'm here now aren't I" her voice a bit raspy and I have no words, I can't describe how it felt losing her. She was gone. She died. In my arms. She was dead.

I press my lips against hers like there would be no other, I rest my head in the crook of her neck as I silently sob and she reassured me that it's okay and that's she's okay.

But it wasn't okay, for a few moments I had just lost the love of my life.

~

"FINNICK" I hear her name in the distance as I look up from where Peeta and I were hunting.

"VIC!" I shout back as I run to the direction once there I see Katniss and Vic crying. I try to get to her but a force field stops me.

What do they hear that we don't.
She's being tortured her eyes are shallow and she cries. She's been through death and back and yet snow still tortures her.

Once the force field is gone I pull her to me as I hold her tightly she shakes against me. "Shh it's okay vic it'll all be over soon." I say as I reassure her.

I really hope it will be. She doesn't Deserve this. I love her. I can't lose her. Watching her be tortured and picked at like a game.

How some day I will kill that man of a whore snow. For not hurting me, but for hurting the one I love most dearly.

~

"Will there be a problem?" I ask Peeta and he shakes his head in my direction.

I was to stay here as the girls go to finish the plan we made. I was weary as how am I suppose to protect Vic if I'm not there. I told Johanna to cut the tracker and to not be too hard on her.

I'll see her soon though right. I take in the warm kiss and her touch just as I watch her disappear from in the tree line.

~

I cut off the tracker in beetee as Peeta runs, "WAIT PEETA NO! Come back" I say as another cannon goes off.

"FINNICK!" I hear Vic shout.

"VIC!" I scream back as I run to where she could be. I look around to see blood trickle and I run another way.

I have to find her. Please. Let her be okay.

~

When I find her she's pinned on the ground by Brutus I take my trident and impale him right in the back as he coughs blood. My heart almost sunk when I saw her but she jumps back up and when we make eye contact she runs in my direction.

" FINNICK" she throws herself in my embrace.

"God I was so worried. I heard you scream and then scream my name and I had to find you" my eyes could be wild as my voice cracked scanning her to make sure she was okay. Her arm bled and I knew Johanna must have done her job.

Just then we hear a crack of a branch and turn to see Katniss. She was holding an arrow straight at us.

I could feel Vic tense as I take a step towards Katniss "Katniss. Listen to me. I know you're here. But remember, remember who the real enemy is." Everything around us went silent.
She lowers her weapon from me as she realizes.

Suddenly the storm above us began and just as Katniss quickly wrapped the electrical string around her arrow she shot it up at the arena as she screamed.

I widen my eyes in panic as I run to Vic to protect her from the bolt, pushing her down I stumble on top of her. I could hear the crack of the arena above us.
I collapse next to her as her voice rings out, "Finnick"

"Vic, promise me this is forever." I say softly to her as a tear from her eye drops down on me. She giggles in pain.

"I promise" she whispers as our lips crash into each other, sparking a fire in our hearts.

"Finnick stay with me come on, please" her voice rings out as I chuckle, "always" she places her hand on my chest to feel my beating heart beat slow. I felt powerless, weak.

I look to see where she looked as if she was a moment late Peeta would be dead, she pressed her soft lips against mine before going to Peeta to save his life.

They weren't wrong, even though she wasn't apart of the plan she still kept them alive. Anyone. Even without knowing them.
Cause that's the person Victoria Grace is.

I watch as she pushed him out of the way and the debris blocks my view from her. Her lips linger from where they were on mine moments ago. I can't reach her. I miss her already. I need her.

I watch as the hover crafts around pick them up I faintly see her shiny hair as they do and I smile weakly. As my eye lids grow heavy closing.

The whole world knows don't they, how she is so much more than just a ๐‘๐‘Ÿ๐‘’๐‘ก๐‘ก๐‘ฆ ๐•—๐•’๐•”๐•–.
