Reaping Day, District two. The same story. Everyone is waiting, and after what feels like days the district escort finally arrives. "Happy Hunger Games, and May the odds be ever in your favor" she says, while reaching into the bowl of names. Clove wanted so badly for her name to be chosen but didn't worry since she could still volunteer. Of course, it ended up not being her, it was a 12-year-old girl named Pinaplay Greentree. She seemed to be a scrawny little girl, who would be one of the first to die so Clove decided to Volunteer. The District's escort congratulated her and said "Now for the gentleman." She reached into the bowl almost knocking it over and pulled out one of the name cards. Cato clenched his fists as she ripped it open and read it aloud, "Parsley Beckinghamm." Cato knew if he didn't volunteer his dad would be so disappointed in him, so he did. He didn't want any trouble and didn't know if his father would beat him or not. He walked up on stage, and everyone gave a round of applause as the tributes were taken away.
