<p data-p-id="04d57ceee0097f2de8b8fd40daba98ac">"Yes sis?" I say.</p>
<p data-p-id="e91baea775dd2e74719f3cac2c398a71">"Look what I got for you."</p>
<p data-p-id="1e87a45116ac46b3202bc2b760c3ca91">"What is it?"</p>
<p data-p-id="25532242f1804499e33d06c81be38fa1">"It's a dream catcher necklace. Wear it, and even the real world nightmares will be caught."</p>
<p data-p-id="38a43c4a1c3365eb4d84a88af43f22c3">"Thanks sis."</p>
<p data-p-id="c0f65ebb2d1d88577aca8f6cc15315d0">Ammy smiles at me in return.</p>

<p data-p-id="8d5a1e82cc4634d7bccb867a9910c0bb">I put my dream catcher earrings on. They shimmer with the necklace in the sunlight.</p>
<p data-p-id="94d5f5891b950a20fff5b31f08a20917">I don't even know why the sun shines on reaping day. It's useless. At least for us. The Capitol is probably at the edge of their seats waiting for us to arrive at the square.</p>
<p data-p-id="91b9cedecc75e9c97135a06287921f51">10 minuets left.</p>
<p data-p-id="4980beceec65b437d8bfa339c9edd2e9">This is my fourth reaping, so I don't know why I'm so nervous.</p>
<p data-p-id="e59d7c597181de3bff3fa6b9bffb7d04">The bell sounds. Time to go.</p>
<p data-p-id="4406cdacbcf018296a130c69e6270cf8">I slip on my green shoes and put my house key in my pocket.</p>
<p data-p-id="78506e528ff6b75338d136c3ce463c6e">"I hope I'll need you tonight." I whisper to the key.</p>
<p data-p-id="bb579bc266f725aadcd4203d407613a8">I slip out the door and lock it then run in front of the giant crowd going through town.</p>
<p data-p-id="cc42bb84f0df0fd04de6968782629121">I make about 5th in the line and wait.</p>
<p data-p-id="bf89f0b7fafff5207e9c2686418f42e5">"Next." The lady at the desk who seems nice enough, tells me.</p>
<p data-p-id="c7e0f2d1bbaa13d974233cd3e9a66d1c">I put my hand out to her and I hardly notice it when she pricks my finger and waves me off.</p>
