I waited. Waiting for the rain to stop. Sitting by the window thinking about the other districts. I wanted to run away.just run free into the lush green forest. I tiptoed quietly across the creaky wooden floor. Trying to not wake prim or my mom up. I slipped on my boots and put on my coat and ran outside, I ran across the Familiar trail I always walked on. I came across the electric fence. "No trespassing" it said I slipped right under it. I then came across the creek with the old oak tree stood. It was also my bow stash. I quietly sneaked my bow out and put the arrow In it. I trudged along, until I saw a deer, I froze. I swiftly pulled my bow up and....."hey Kat-nip!" my arrow flew into the air and came back down striking about a foot away from were I stood. the deer was out of sight. "**** u gale!" "Ugghh why are you here?!?!" I said out of frustration. "I just came to tell you that today's the day" for what? "the capital is going to pick... u know."a flash of a memory struck through my mind. Families being torn apart, the screams, I knew today was the day, and I tried to ignore it as hard as I could.
