The Hunger Games - Second Quarter

21

I woke up that morning before Katniss and went to eat breakfast. Wrapping a silk robe around my body before I left the room. Gale was the only one up, I watched as he stared out the window fiddling with his hands.

"Face you fears Elsa." I mumble to myself before stepping into visibility. Just my luck Effie's door slides open and her gold hair is seen.

"Wake everyone up I have a surprise." She says.

Once we were all awake, Effie sat us down on the couch. She stood infront of us with a remote in her hand.

"Because you never said goodbye to yoyr families, the capitol being as generous as they are decided you could video chat with them," Effie says. My face lit up, "Seeing on how Elsa and Katniss are sisters they will go first, then Gale, then Peeta."

Everyone shuffled out of the room leaving Katniss and I staring at the black screen on the TV. Then it started to flicker and I saw my moms face.

"Is it on? " My mom asks, typical, "Katniss Elsa!"

"Hi mom!" We exclaim.

"Prim!" My mom calls.

Prim's small figure entered the camera and she lit up.

"Elsa! Katniss!" Her eyes began to swell and she started to cry.

"Prim." Katniss says.

"Dont cry." I add in with a slight smile.

"You have to come home." Prim says.

"We'll try our bests." Katniss says.

"Do you still have your tokens?" She asks.

I look down at my neck to see the little golden arrow.

"Yes." I say.

"It's in my bag." Katniss says.

"We have only thirty seconds left," My mom says, "You both try your best to make sure you both come home, were rooting for you back home, and we love you."

"Love you to mom!" Katniss and I both say.

"I love you." Prim's small voice could be heard as the screen once again went black.

"Love you." I say silently.

Sorry for the short chapter, things will start to pick up they arrive at the capitol next one.
