Rosalee Blu Turbine
District 8

"It's alright, just wait and see..."

Rosalee knew that no one was going to volunteer for her, and she was going to have to be okay with that. She was led off the stage by peacekeepers and told to sit in a room, all alone by herself. The girl sighed, biting back tears. It was hard to know that you were going to die, and have nothing that you could do to stop it. Rose hoped that some of her family would come and say goodbye, so she could hug them and tell them that she loved them. She hoped to come back, but the odds weren't really in her favor.

Hearing the door peek open a crack, her heart jumped to her stomach. Family? It jumped back down when Rose realized that it was just another peacekeeper, making sure she hadn't escaped. The girl moved over to the window, where she looked at some of the people of District 8. Rose wanted to see her family, but guessed that they were coming. They had to say goodbye at least.

"Don't worry, I don't bite ...at least, not to hard."

Isa promised herself she wouldn't cry.
She wouldn't cry.
She wouldn't...cry...
But, Isa broke down as soon as she saw little Rose inside the Justice Building.
"Rose, oh my gosh!" Isa shouted, sitting next to her sister. She couldn't believe this had happened. The odds were defiantly in Rose's favor. In fact, they were in all of the Turbine kid's favor. Why didn't Isa volunteer herself? She could have done it, would have done it. But, she was just so...shocked, to hear her younger sister's name called. She froze, couldn't move and couldn't think until it was to late.
Isa cradled her younger sister in her arms for a moment before letting her parents step in to give their hugs goodbye. She stood with her back up against the wall, trying to show the fact that she wasn't crying.
"We'll be rooting for you."

Rosalee gave them all tight hugs, knowing somewhere in her heart that it wasn't likely for her to get a hug from them again. She was going into the arena, with other people who had much more skill than she did. Rose was too scared to cry, it was like she was paralyzed. "Be okay, please, be okay." she said softly, her voice weak and stiff. She just wanted her family to be okay with the idea that Rose most likely wasn't coming back, ever. "Watch over Penelope for me." she said softly, before being ushered away by a peacekeeper.
