For the first time, he rests easily curled up next to his friend. Midnight lets Kristof rest against him, and in that moment everything feels at ease. Each anxiety slips away, nothing bothers him, and despite knowing that many more still have to die, he knows a goodnight sleep will help him more than anything. Peace is wonderful, yet it doesn't mean much because it could easily be interrupted especially here.
"We're okay."
He looks at Midnight, and he smiles from ear to ear knowing in this moment he's safe, knowing that a friend can finally watch over him. It's all he needs and hopes for, all he desires, and within seconds, he falls asleep cuddled next to his friend. Midnight keeps him warm and tucks him underneath his wings, and Kristof doesn't stir until morning.
He stretches his arms and slowly gets to his feet before stretching his back. Everything aches - he assumes from sleeping on the ground for so many nights, and he knows the stiffness will only get worse. It's not a comfortable bed, but at least he doesn't have to walk anywhere anymore. He gives Midnight a pet and gently scratches his face and ears and smiles from ear to ear before hopping on his back for a ride.
"Let's head that way."
He holds his spear as he flies, and when he sees the tower, he dismounts for only a moment until he sees many others heading his way. His eyes widen, and he looks at Midnight wanting to make sure he's protected no matter what. Their friends, and he wants to remain friends forever until the end of times. Kristof takes a deep breath. Being alone is hard, and he wants a human friend, but here, nobody is a friend.
He stares at the ground, and then when the time is right, he looks at the people he knows. One broke his foot causing him to be hobbled throughout the rest of the game. While part of him doesn't want to strike, he knows he has no choice. All he can do is hope his training will guide him.
I'm sorry for what the Capitol is making me do because I don't want to die.
Nobody does.
