THREE MONTHS LATER
Today was the day that I have been dreading since three months ago when President Brownsman announced the remaking of The Hunger Games.
The Districts tired to riot, but The Capitol was expecting it. They quicky fought back and extinguished the Fire.
But today was the day when they would bring everything back.
But, It was different this time, the rules had changed.
Rule 1: All ages 14-21 would be entering.
Rule 2: There would be 2 victors, but both had to be from different Districts.
Rule 3: The families of all tributes would have unlimited food supply for life.
The third rule was the one that was knawing at my brain ever since she announced she was bringing the games back.
If I were to be a tribute, my family would be supplyed with food for life. For Life.
Today was the day, reaping day.
Luckily, my brother and sister could not be entered, only being 13 but, I was entered, 10 times.
As the old Effie Trinket used to say, the odds were definetly not in my favor.
My mom had laid out an outfit for me the night before which was, a baby pink dress that went down past my kneecaps with a dainty flower chain stiched around the waist area. The fabric seemed to cascade down my body as if it was a peice of silk draped over me.
This was my mother's finest peice of fabric and she used it just for my reaping dress.
She did my hair in a zig-zag braid just as Katniss had had hers, like I've seen in pictures.
My brother and sister weren't alowwed to come because my mom didn't want them to be exposed to it before they had too.
We trudged outside and my mother said goodbye to me on our outside porch.
Another minor rule of the reaping was that the parents had to watch on the television, in fear of rioting.
It felt like hours until I reached the stage in the middle of town where everyone was already lined up. I walked into the line and waited for them to check my ID.
I finally filed into the girls section of the reaping area, next to my friend Acacia. We both looked at each other nervously but quickly turned our attention to the stage where again someone was tapping on the microphone like President Brownsman had done before.
"Greetings everyone I am, Alia Trinket and I will be your host for todays reaping." She was dressed as crazily I've ever seen in my life. Her hair was piled at least 3 miles high on top of her head with flower pins peaking out inside the cracks of the pile. She was dressed in a neon green peplum dress that flared out at the waist. Her shoes were at least a foot tall."As normal," She said cheerfully. "We will pick the ladies first,"
She reached her long bony finger into the clear glass bowl.
They traveled around the bowl as if searching for the right one to pick.
She picked up two and glanced at both as if it meant nothing.
And decided on the left one.
My heart beat was uncontrollable as she folded open the paper.
She took a glance at the name and raised one eyebrow, pursed her lips and finally said after is seemed like hours.
She said the name.
"June Brinley."
