--Clovniss POV--

I woke and stretched my arm seeking Shaniquas warmth. Finding nothing but the cold sheets

laying next to me.

i lie in bed for another 5 minutes and then finally decide that time to get up.

as i start to get dressed out of my pyjamas, i grab one of the rotten bananas out of the fruit bowl to eat. I go and put my boots on that I have worn for the past three years, they lay neatly on the floor next to the door.

I crouch down to tie up my left foot when I hear creaking in the old ruined floor boards. I turn around to be faced by Shaniqua. Shaniqua was 13 she had her first reaping last year and was scared as shit and I honestly don't blame her.

"Hey beautiful" I say standing straight putting my hands on her shoulders,

"What are you doing up so early ?"I ask her giving a smile

"Where are you going?" She asked me ignoring my question .

It was 6 in the morning and Shaniqua had dark circles underneath her eyes from no sleep.

"You know where..." She knew what I meant by that I was going to the woods

"Now just go back to bed" I said brushing her cheek.

She nodded and slowly walked off back to bed, I turned around and out the door picking up the banana.

I ate the banana walking down the muddy street where children dressed in the same old torn clothes doing the same thing every day playing in the mud.

After I have made it past the town of wrecked half fallen over houses I reach the Hob.

I go inside to find just about every store open, I start walking over to Madam Sae.

"Hey" she greats me. She is in her late 50s wrinkles covering her skin.

She was the kindest lady you could possibly ever meet. As I reached her stall she instantly handed me a bowl of warm pumpkin soup.

"Thanks" I smile.

Madam Sae and I had our usual convosation until I decided it was time to go.

I payed for the soup she gave me and headed off.

I walked past the store where I had gotten Shaniquas goat.

I then remembered that mum said sometime this week I had to buy buttons for her to fix up her jacket.

I walk over to the stall and rummage through the buttons but found none as pairs.

I kept searching through buttons when something sharp pricked me, picked it out to find it was the end of a pin that had pricked me.

There was something different about this pin on it was a bird which I recognised to be a Mockingjay, it had an arrow in its beak.

"How much?" I asked the lady looking at me while I looked at the Mockingjay pin.

"Nothing for you love" she answered I smiled and thanked her.

When I reached the gate that separated district 12 and the woods I checked for a buzzing noise.
