Lenorette Odesta smiled. She loved District Four. It had that fresh sea breeze, and the crisp ocean smell. For Lenorette, it just felt refreshing to be here. Lenorette smiled and went up on stage to greet the citizens.

"Hello, District Four!" She said with a wave. The citizens had mixed reactions. Some citizens, most likely Careers and their families, replied enthusiastically. Others just mumbled and muttered things under their breath.

After the rebellion video played, Lenorette drew the first name.

"Misty Talyvore!" A young girl with long, wavy brown hair walked up confidently. "I'm Misty and I'm eleven. I like to consider myself a natural-born Career." The crowd didn't look nearly as surprised as Lenorette felt. An eleven-year-old Career? Wow. She really needed to keep up with the times.

"Xa-" Lenorette began, but a volunteer shouted out.
"I'm Sebastian Monteflore, age 18," the tall boy said confidently. "Say hello to the next Victor of these Games!" Sebastian said, flexing his muscles, until Lenorette told him to sit down.

"Fa-" Another volunteer piped up. Another boy, from the same age group, with black hair and green eyes appeared. "Denim Selbach, age 18," he said with a smirk.

Before Lenorette even had the chance to say the next name, someone yelled out. "Apollo Merenei, age 17," the next boy said.

She sighed as she drew the last name. Lenorette paused to see if any volunteers came, but there were none.
"Artemis Mernei!"
Great. Lenorette had picked a set of twins. She hated it when twins came into the Games, because they either both died or only one twin made it. It felt like she had torn a bond apart. Of course she never told Snow, since he would probably kill her.

Even with a hollow feeling in Lenorette's stomach, she introduced the tributes.
