Buttercup is one of my favorite
characters of all time. He's part
of the Hunger Games Series and
this is why I love him. The Scene
is from Mockingjay, in the finale
so expect... SPOILERS!
"She's not coming back! She's never ever coming back here again!" I grab another pillow and get to my feet to improve my aim. Out of nowhere the tears begin to pour down my cheeks. "She's dead." i clutch my middle to dull the pain. Sink down on my heels, rocking the pillows,crying."She's dead you stupid cat. She's dead." a new sound, part crying, part singing, comes out of my body, giving voice to my despair. Buttercup begins to wail as well. No matter what I do, he won;t go. He circles me, just out of reach as wave after wave of sobs racks my body,until I fall unconscious. But he must undersand. He must know that the unthinkable has happened and to survive will require previously unthinkable acts. Because hours later when I come to my bed he's there in the moonlight. Crouched besideme, yellow eyes alert, gaurding me from the night...."
I think he might be one of the
reasons Katniss stayed alive.
Someone else could reconize
her similar losses. Suzanne Collins
usually gives her characters
something to look onto for
hope as she mentally destroys
them. Buttercup was for Katniss
and The Statue of the Soilder
for Gregor...
