I dedicate this chapter to my friend @araredbridge.

Prim POV

Peeta and I are marched through the bleak Justice Building, how ironic. Why? because this is not justice,they are sending children to their doom for an event that occurred 74 years ago.. The Peace Keepers push me into a room and swiftly close the door behind me. I look around and see a pretty little room, with plush rugs and what I believe is velvet coverings on the chair and couch. I touch my throat only to feel skin causing me to panic, 'Where is my necklace?!' Suddenly I remembered that I had left it at home on my bed. Slowly tears welled up n my eyes, I had nothing, not even a necklace to give me hope. I heard a horrible screeching noise and saw that my family was being led in by the peacekeepers. I felt my heart break even more as I looked at the tear-stained faces in front of me, slowly I walked up to them and gathered everyone in for a hug. Dad said, ¨I want you to know that we all love you and we always will love you." and kissed the top of my head. I looked at Angelica and Gabe when Gabe opened his mouth, "Prim? Please win this, we can't lose you. I can't imagine that." Slowly Angelica opened her hand and I gasped, sitting in the center of her palm was the necklace. There was only one difference, "You fixed it?" I asked her. "It never was able to tell the time." Angelica just pointed to dad and I hugged them all again. Turning around, I bent down and lifted my hair so that Angelica could put it around my neck. Tears were spilling down my cheeks as I realized that this would be the last time I would see them. I rested my head on mom's shoulders as Gabe and Angelica stroked my head and whispered that I would be okay, that I would live and come home. Suddenly the door opened and i panicked, the peace keepers filed in and grabbed my family. Screaming I clawed at the guards but it was useless and they were torn away from me, we were all crying as the door slammed shut again. Sobbing, I collapsed on the ground, to tired to sit on the couch and passed out from the weight of everything that was going to happen.
