As I walk beyond the district fence into the wilderness the sun begins to rise. I hear the bushes rustle and draw my arrow back getting ready to shoot. I see the nose of a deer poking through the bush. When I release I nearly jump out of my skin when I hear "Hey Luna." My arrow misses by a inch " Come on Casp that could've fed my family for a month." I see a squirrel out of the corner of my eye and shoot. it hits right in its eye. "Well looks like you have some food, plus you also have Bri's goat milk and cheese." " That squirrel wouldn't even be enough to make a soup." "Come on Luna we better get back soon since it's the reaping today peacekeepers will be everywhere." " How many times did you enter your name?" Casp took a long pause when he finally answered 19. " 19! Casp what if you get picked?" "I'm not going to get picked." " You don't know that. Anything can happen." Whatever let's get back.
Coming back from the woods felt different today, no one was outsider or doing their daily chores. Besides some of the shopkeepers i was the only one on the street. As i walked in the front door my mother Katniss was waiting. "What took you so long" she said in her usual motherly tone. "in the woods with Casp." "What did i tell you it's too dangerous to go out on reaping day , now go get ready." I went back into my room that Bri and i shared and helped her get ready since it was her first reaping. After i finished her hair and sent her to get on her clothes. I walked into our small bathroom and washed up and put my hair into two tight braid to match Bris. I put on my dress and pinned my mother's mockingjay pin under one of the pleats of my dress. "How do i look?" said Bri walking into the bathroom. " Beautiful as always." She smiled and gave me a hug "Love you Bri." " Love you too". It was time to head to the reaping and the streets were busier now with people walking to the market, but mostly to the reaping. Bri and mother and i separate to our age groups. Effie Trinket walks up to the microphone "Hello everyone and welcome to the 84 Hunger Games! May the odds be ever in your favor." As usual they showed a video on war and the capitol. after what seemed like hours she finally said the tributes.
