District 4 Reapings!

I scoffed. "Look, I am anything but a career. But, I can be just as good. And much smarter. There's strength in numbers. Allies?" I asked, looking up at Hunter, since he was much taller.

I thought about it. "First of all, I'm pretty smart. Second of all, you'll be a career if we are allies. You okay with that?"

[color:f0dd=006699] "Huh. Well, I guess it's fine. No stabbing in the back... literally. You will regret it." I nodded to myself. I felt a bit sick.

I laughed. "I promise. You should too."

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 2:24 am

I nodded. "I promise." I said truthfully. I didn't trust Hunter but I was beginning to. I bit my lip nervously. I didn't want to have to say goodbye.

Tyler grinned. "Alright. It's goodbyes time. Then the party starts."

Guest

Winter hurried up and let out a sigh of relief when her name wasn't called. "Poor tributes..." she muttered to herself. I hope they want this... She thought. She had never really interacted with the tributes, but she still wished them the best. Good luck...

My mom and brother came to say goodbye first. "See you in a month!" My brother said. And we all knew that I was going to win. At least half of District 4 did.

I watched as my family walked in. Fiona and Janet were full out balling and Tarin had slow tears falling down her cheeks. Dad wiped his eyes, trying to hide his tears. I ran to them all and we all bear hugged together. Holly handed me a pair of earrings. I took a closer look at them. They were Mom's old pearl earrings from when she married Dad. "No! I can't take these!" I moved to give them to Mom, but she stopped me. "No. Keep them." She said shakily. Maria and Sidney tried to calm Janet and Fiona but it was no use. I gave a weak smile. "Hey! It's okay! I'm gonna go out there and win or lose, I'm going to think of you, of all of you." I said to Fiona and then to them all. A peacekeeper escorted them out and I sighed and waved. Then I put the earrings on.

Next came my best friend. We talked for a while and he then gave me an anklet. It said, "Hunter. District 4's feared spear." When he left I put it on my ankle. Now I have a token.

I walk into Tyler's waiting room, grinning. "Hate to say I called it champ" I say.

I recognized Skylar immediately. I held back my tears and looked away. Skylar and I had almost been friends. In fact, we probably would've been good friends if I wasn't about to go compete in The Hunger Games.

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 3:18 pm

I grin. "Why would you hate to? You did. Maybe in a year or two I'll be your mentor. We all know who's going to win this year and your year anyways." I flexed my muscles. "You'll be me in a few years bud."

I grin, "Ill see you when you bring back victory gifts, buddy" I say, "Mind if I bunk at the victors village, get the house ready for ya?" I ask jokingly.

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 3:23 pm

I laugh. "Acutally, that'd be great! You'd be doing me a great favor."

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 3:29 pm

I smile, "I'll watch it you win on one of those Fancy TV's they put in the victors houses" I say, relishing the joking.

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 3:38 pm

I'm still laughing. "Awesome. Alright Skylar, just make sure that our district can scrap up some money and bring me gifts. Bye!"

"Alright" I say, smiling. I leave his room and go over to Esther's room. "Hey" I say, smiling reassuringly.

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 5:10 pm

I looked at Skylar. "Hey." I said simply. An awkward silence filled the room. I looked down at my feet again and chewed on my lip.

Subject: Re: District 4 Reapings! Sun Apr 01, 2012 5:27 pm

I grinned, "Dont worry, the career pack will protect you" I say.

I waited patiently to get on the train. I couldn't wait to get to the Capitol.
