Finally the Reaping has begun and Effie is on center stage. "May the odds be ever in your favor." I fall into a daze hearing just odd sounds in my head. I think i hear her call a girl named Ricrose Temanin but I think the can't be right. I hear a girl screaming " I am a turtle I am am turtle " When I Look up I see a young girl around 16 going on 17 walk up onto the stage. The fear in her eyes instantly sober me up, I had not heard what Effies says but the girl replies "Katniss everdeen"

She then goes into the bowl and calls Peter Mellakie? What an odd name for a child. At the sight of him I imagine he looks in a sort of way of a child me and Effie would have. As lean forward to get a better look my chair suddenly falls over and I fall off stage. I pick myself back up I put one foot in front of the other and looked straight at Effie. By the grace of the capital I found the strength to pick myself right back where I had started.

As we board the train to the Capital me and Effie are left alone. I Ask HER "Yo Sugar Baby whatcha think of that little stunt I pulled off back there? " Haymitch! Why don't you get the children so we can leave already. We are on a tight schedule and we cannot miss a thing." "Fine Honeybunches of oats whatever you say I'll go get them."
