I'm not sure how she is supposed to react. She would obviously be in shock and terror as the monkey's bite her. She does throw herself in front of them to save Peeta. The Monkey's bite her and she dies. 

why is it that when a couple goes to a restaurant and decides to sit next to each other rather than across from one another, they are looked at as being socially out of place? What set such an odd standard of what is normal and what is the purpose of social binding contracts such as these when they deem no true purpose?

 

she's shocked.

 

Deaths

At the start of the Games, the Morphlings reached the Cornucopia shortly after Finnick and Katniss (because Mags swam to Katniss while Finnick was retrieving Peeta). During the bloodbath, the male was killed but the female luckily managed to escape with her life.

Later when Peeta, Katniss and Finnick were attacked by monkey muttations, Peeta was about to be killed by a monkey mutation, until the female Morphling jumped in front of Peeta to protect him and received a huge gash in her neck. After Peeta finished off the monkeys, he took her body to the beach where he comforted her by telling her to look at the colors of the sunset. Katniss observed that she was shaking and didn't know whether it was the shock from the attack, or withdrawal from her morphling, and she soon died in Peeta's arms. After she bled to death, Peeta took her corpse to the water to let it drift off until a hovercraft came to take it away. He later questioned why she sacrificed herself for him.
