The reaping

Hey, again hehe i hope you are doing amazing. well not much to say so go ahead and read love you.
----------------------------

All I could here was my heart pounding in my chest as I stood with other girls like me. The section next to us held the boys and behind us, were the lucky ones who either were too young or too old to be in the reaping. Luckily for me this was my last year to be eligible, when you passed a certain age you will no longer have your name in the bowl that held all the poor souls who have a chance at fighting to the death just for entertainment. Effie trinket took the stage and said some things that she says every year, but I wasn't listening at all, I didn't want to if I'm being honest, it was the same old thing. Then the boring video that they have to play at every reaping or else someone gets killed for some stupid reason starts playing. Nobody watches it anymore, I've seen it so many times I could even mouth it if I had to. The video ended and Effie said some more things. Then she spoke the words we never wanted to hear... "Now for the girls" my heart pounded even harder, my hands started sweating. I felt a shaking hand grab mine, I look down to meet my sister rose. It was her first year so I really didn't think she was going to get picked, 12 year olds are the least likely to get chosen cause their name is only in there once but sometimes is happens which is very sad. Effie reached her gloved hand into the clear bowl and moved it around the white folded papers and picked one out, whoever was written down on the piece of paper, well their life would change. She walked back to the mic and UN-folded the paper. It was so quiet in there you could hear a pin drop in the woods it felt so freaky, it seemed like forever but then she spoke....

"Rose nightingale"

My heart stopped, I felt weak and drained when I heard that. My sister. Her face held no emotion but I knew for a fact she was terrified. I couldn't move at all. She started walking towards the middle. I was in shock, she was so young, her name was in there once, I made sure of It, I felt like the whole world just came to a sudden stop, the wind was knocked out of me I couldn't breathe but the sound of a bird in the distance knocked me out of my trance and kicked my body into gear and without thinking through what I was about to do, I heard my voice out of the dead quit town square...

"I volunteer as tribute"

Now I never enjoyed being the center of attention but everybody and I mean everybody's eyes were on me, even the capitals. I spoke again to make sure they heard me. "I volunteer" Effie looked at me as if I had two heads. "Our first volunteer, well then come on up sweet heart" she sounded baffled. I couldn't move at all but if it weren't for the guards pushing me forward I would have stayed there. All you could hear was rose screaming my name. The walk down the path felt like forever, but I reached the dark stage and I hesitantly took a step. I slowly walked over next to the colorful lady and turned to meet the eyes of all of my district who gathered for this death lottery. "What's your name honey" I spoke in a small voice, "Y/N Nightingale" I wanted to cry so badly but these reaping's will be shown all over the place, and if they see me cry I'll be an easy target and I at least want a fighting chance in the arena. "I bet my hat, that the girl was your little sister" I mentally laughed, I wouldn't be up here if it wasn't, but I just nodded my head. "Wow, that was so noble of you....well then now for the boys" I forgot about that, one of these boys would be joining me, my best guy friend Louis ( you're welcome) looked at me, at first I wanted him to be called, so I could be with someone I knew but then a thought hit me harder than a rock being thrown at the sped of sound. Only one person out of the 24 tributes came out alive, and at that moment I was praying he didn't get called. I looked over to see Effie pulling out another white slip, she walked back over to the mic and spoke.

"Harry styles"

I didn't really know who that was, so I really didn't care. A boy with curly hair and green eyes looked at me with fear, I looked back at him and for some odd reason I remembered him, but I just couldn't think about how I knew him. He slowly walked out of the group and made his way to the stage. After about a minute or so he joined me. "Well go on shake hands" we both turn to each other and he took my hand and shook it, he looked me dead in the eye, and I will say he was pretty cute, but he turned back towards the crowd and so did I. "Your 74th annual hunger games tributes, Y/N Nightingale and Harry styles" Effie said we so much excitement and did a small clap by herself but nobody else clapped along, but they did do something, a salute type of thing, they held 3 fingers up to us, I'm not sure what it means but its seems important. The peacekeepers took us to the "Farewell" room, it's where we get to say goodbye to our families. Yes the capital is cruel and kills people without a second thought if they did the tiniest thing wrong , they were human enough to let us say goodbye.

When I got to the room I had no time to break down, because the first people in my room were my sister and my mom.

"Y/N you have to win, you have to, you can't die, and you have to fight, you can hunt so you have a chance, you have to promise you will make it home alive" Rose was crying hard, so I just hugged her "I promise" even though i wasn't sure if I would be able to keep that promise.

Then my mom came and hugged me "You got this, I love you so much" she said "I love you to mom" then the peacekeeper came in "Times up" and started taking my family out, rose was crying as she left.

Then my best friend Louis came in "Y/N you're going to win, you are stronger, faster and smarter than anyone there, you know how to get food and filter water" he seemed so confident in me. "I will louis I swear I'll try" and once again "Times up" and the last thing I said to him was to take care of my sister and my mom. I had a couple of more visitors and one of them gave me a golden pin with a mocking jay on it. I guess that was my little piece of home.

"Come on Y/N It's time to get on the train" and I slowly walked with harry to the train and got on the silver rocket, it went so fast. I've only seen it leave but I have never been on it. I took one last look at my home cause I might never see this place again. They showed us around the train then showed is our rooms and then lets us go. I sat in my room and made sure nobody could hear me and then I broke down and cried and cried till I fell asleep.
