We were taken to the town hall, where we were sat opposite each other in silence. Every now and then we would glance and our eyes would meet but not for long, I waited and waited, until, finally, they let Darren and Ellie in. Ellie hugged me tight, and Darren did to. I felt a tear drop against my check.
"I will win the games." I sobbed quietly."For you two I will win." Darren pulled away slowly, and looked at me, before smiling.
"You look so much like mum."I tried to smile back, but I was to sad too. What if I lost? What'd happen to them? Darren put his hand on mothers jade necklace."She loved us more then anything. She would do anything for us. That's why she saved us in the fire. She sacraficed herself for us." He mived back slightly."I'm glad your like her. I know you'll win Izzy. I know you will." With one last hug and a kiss of Ellie and Darren, they were gone. What if I never saw them again? Tears slowly went down my checks. I waited in silence. No one came for David.
"Is anyone coming to see you?" I asked. He seemed startled by the fact that'd i'd spoken so sunddley.
"No." He said."I have no family left. And friends......" he laughed quietly."I tend to loose them easily." I didn't really know what to say to this, so I just nodded. "So your Izzy Blake? Your father was killed in the games wasn't he? He was only seventeen as well. A young age to have a child don't you think? And your mum was killed in a house fire, am I right?" I nodded. This wasn't helping."Remember that forest fire, about four years ago? My parents and little brother died in that. I've been alone ever since." He sounded like he'd never told anyone that before. And I knew to keep it secret. Eventually Ocean Deer came to escort us to the train. Along behind her, was a man in his mid twenties. Our mentor, Robert Orto. He won the 18th hunger games. The only winnr of district seven. So far. He shook our hands. He didn't seem to be much of a speaker.
"Well, we haven't got all day." Ocean rushed us onto the train, ready to leave. "Come come now!" I gave one last longing glance to district seven, as if it was the last time I'd ever see it.
