I prepared my clothes and laid them nicely on my bed to iron when i get back, the reaping doesen't start until 3 so ill be good for about two hours or so, but its not me im worried about; its Rose... Its only her second reaping and she can't bear the thaought of being selected, her best friend from the village school was reaped last year and she avoided watching any of the commentaries on our television in case anything happened to her.

But you see, that's what Katniss stood for, what she fought for, this simply cannot happen.

They don't realise when enough is enough.

I left the house at presently 12:00am which gives me 2 hours to check over everything around the village, I passed the derelict shacks once used as the housing of Katniss' time as i carried on towards the main market square, i had to buy some provisions for my family too as the tesserae sadly wasn't going far enough, I mean theres only so much you can do on one bag of grain a week.

and thats when i saw Anna.
