“Julie?” “Yes Grandma?” “I put a dress on your bed, for you.” I stop eating my toast, and just stare at the ground. I start to cry because to day is the reaping day. I try and wipe my eyes from all the tears but it does not help, more tears just take their place. I get up and I walk in my room to get ready for the reaping. On my bed is a blue dress that is the color of the sea, I have never seen this dress before? “That was your Mother’s dress.” I whip around to see my Grandma standing in the door way, She has a sad smile on her face and you can tell that she miss her “This was  my Mothers dress ?” “Yes dear!” in her eyes I can just tell she didn’t sleep at all last night. “You okay ?” I ask her she just nods her head and closes the door, I am left all by my self. I go and hop in the shower. After I am done I get out and just look at the dress for what fells like forever I shake my head from all these sad thoughts and put the dress on, I look at myself in the mirror I am beautiful I look at my own eyes on the right that eye is blue and on the left that eye is green, this makes me different from every one else in District 4. I walk out of my room and down the hall to were my Grandma is. I get a little bit more then just her.  Kyle  is there in a nice button down shirt and  khaki pants he looks really nice “Nice Kyle!” I say in a testing voice. I have never ever seen him look this nice before, most families can’t afford clothes like we are wearing today, he must have gotten then from his Dad. “You two!” it sounds like he means it. “I will meet you guys down there!” says my Grandma. We start to walk down the beach I live right behind the ocean so I never have to go far to swim or walk on the beach. We get to the justice building and they have a line we wait and we find a little more then we wanted to. Two women are sitting down pricking every ones fingers taking blood, one Girl starts to cry and scream “No!” “No I want do it!” the lady on the right gets up and starts to walk over to her. She starts to try and run away.  A peace keeper Kicks her in the side and she falls holding her stomach “Hey stop!” says Kyle. He walks over to her and picks her up off the ground “You okay?” “Ummm….Yeah I think I am.” She shakes her head and pulls her hair out of her eyes and she dust of her skirt. “Hey you can do this just go up and hold out your hands and it will be over fast I will even go with you and do it at the same time!” Kyle says to her “Okay……” The peace keeper comes up and hits Kyle on the head with his gun he falls knocked out “Kyle!” I scream. I run to him and hold him in my arms  “Kyle, Kyle listen to me?!” he groans “Uhh….!” “Hey Kyle you okay?!” “Yeah I think I will be after a little while.” “We better get signed in Kyle!” “Here I will help you up!” I drag him to the women sitting down, I grab one of his fingers and hold it out for them the lady grabs it and pricks it and a drop of blood comes out she pushes it on a piece of paper she takes my finger without even  asking she pricks it and I hold back a tear of pain. No t hey will not see me cry. The little 12 year old go’s next she holds out her finger she passes out and falls on the ground hard “That’s got to hurt!” I think. Some random boy about 18 maybe? Picks her up and takes her to her age. “Kyle you ready to go to your age?” “Yeah!” “Good luck!” I give him a hug “You two!” I let him go and I walk to my age I see my Granma on the side she waves to me and smiles at me, I look away from her and don’t return the smile or wave, if the peace keepers saw I knew her then she may get in to trouble with them. “Welcome to the First Hunger Games Ladies and Gentlemen!” says a capital man “Let me introduce myself!” “My name is Titan O’Reilly!” he says in a happy voice. I roll my eyes and give Kyle a look like who is this idiot?! He just grins at me and covers his moth to keep him self from laughing. “Here is a video all the way from the Capitol!” 13 districts were built against the capitol 12 districts remain every year each districts will offer up 1 young man and woman to fight to the death form ages 12-18 years old it keep going on and on but I don’t listen to it I am to busy looking at Titan O’Reilly hair and make up he has Orange hair and Yellow eyes and not to mention his outfit it’s a pink suit. “Ladies first!” he reaches in and pulls out the little piece of paper that will change some ones life forever. “Julie Smith!” he calls out I am frozen  in place I shake my head and start to walk up to the stage I play with my hair and just look at the ground “Kyle Floyd!” this makes me start to tear up but I shake my head and wipe them before any one can notice. “Shake hands!” he says I grab Kyle’s hand and shake it and let it go. Things start to sink in this means only on of use will come out or none will at all. We go into the justice building and peace keepers walk me to a room with a couch. I sit down my Grandma walks in and gives me a sea shell on a chain “here take this It was your Mothers she would have wanted you to have it she puts it around  my knack and looks me in the eyes and says “I love you please come home?” “I will try!” I say with a little sadness in my voice, I already know I will not be the one coming out of there. I kiss her check and the peace keepers take her away from me for probably the last time I will ever see her again.
