"Who ever thought a Capitol girl would fall for a District girl, huh?"
"Not me"

She didn't expect to...

HER TALK WITH Persephone last night has given Reef a new sense of clarity about everything going on, she had been able to bring Reef a large amount of peace and if she wanted to make sure Mizzen got home she needed her mind to be clear, and focused and that's what Persephone had done for her.
Reef sat with her arm wrapped around Mizzen, the pair were watching Treech and Tanner playfully spar with one another this had all started because Tanner had bet Treech he could take him in a fight and now the pair were taking each other on.
Reef noticed how this wrestling match had brought the tributes together somewhat for the first time since the events of yesterday some were betting on Tanner and others on Treech, If Reef had money she'd probably bet on Treech but only for the fun of it.
Just as the fight was getting good it was broken up by Peacekeepers entering the cage everyone turned and looked as the group of them walked up to the circle of Tributes, they began escorting pairs out of the cage and Reef felt Mizzen's grip her hand tightly and after yesterdays events she fully understood why.
The Peacekeepers walked up to them and began escorting the Tributes out of the Monkey cage in their District pairs, they were taken to a truck just like the one from when they first arrived. The Tributes sat quietly the only sounds heard in the truck were coughing from Hy and Dill, the silence was deafening yesterday's events still flooded their minds.
The journey to their destination wasn't long and soon enough the truck stopped. Peacekeepers began taking the tributes out of the truck one by one, when it was Reef's turn she was taken up and lined up behind Circ from Three, they were all standing in front of the school building they had been brought to for their interviews a few days ago. Soon enough Mizzen was lined up behind her, she turned and smiled at him and the boy returned it as best he could.
Soon enough they were taken inside.
THEY WERE ESCORTED to an unused classroom, she was separated from Mizzen which caused her anxiety to begin to spike after the events of yesterday she hated the idea of being separated from Mizzen, she didn't trust anyone from the Capitol to be alone with him and not get hurt.
Reef was handcuffed to a desk inside the classroom, and the chains rattled every time she moved causing Reef to roll her eyes, for all the power the Capitol tried to show they had they were still terrified of the Tributes and that would be their downfall.
The click of the clock on the wall behind was begging to drive Reef to madness, she rested her arms on the desk, the chains rattling in the process, and rested her head on her arms, she closed her eyes and began to picture the sea back in Four, the sweet smell of the salty sea air, the breezes flowing through her hair. She missed Four Bad and wished to be home there again.
The door to the classroom opening pulled Reef from her imagination, she looked up and saw a Peacekeeper enter the room a small groan escaped her lips and she was about to lay her back down when someone else walked in. It was Persephone she was dressed in her red school uniform, her hair tied in a ponytail and she was carrying a small package.
