the sacrifice part 1

All the characters that wasn't in the Hunger Games Trilogy, are owned by me.

Morning come as usual. I hear my mother calling me from the kitchen, and I bet she'll ask me to bring me some fish. My mom used to do that by her own, before she was in the 67th Hunger Games. Yes, she was a victor. Because we live in district 4, she win the last battle by using trap made from seaweed. Kinda awkward, I said. But, she lost her right hand. So, I go downstairs quickly.

" yes, mom? " I asked.

" Kurt, can you give this to the Ms. Flammington house? Her house was next to the lake." She said, giving me an box.

" What is this? "

" A cake. She just had a baby yesterday " she smiled

" Oh, okay mom. I'll be back soon " i kissed her .

As I walk, I wonder why the district was so calm today. No running people with fishes in their hands, no kids playing, no boats. But I head right to Ms. Flammington's house.

It was huge. The house was old vintage fashioned, with white color. I knocked the door, then a familiar girl showed. She was wearing a long white dress. Her eyes was bright blue, with straight blonde hair. Then I remember, she was fishing in the same sea with me, and she parked her boat beside mine. I don't go to school. Why should i? even I studied, but in district 4, what can I be but fisher?

" Good morning. You looked familiar, who are you looking for?" She looked me in curiosity

" Yeah, I do know you. You parked your boat beside me. Here, a gift from my mom, Ms. Poulannia. By the way, congratulation to your mom for having new baby. " I handed her the cake.

" Thank you, but I have to hurry. By the way, why do you haven't dressed yet?" she asked.

" for what? "

She laughed, " The Reaping, you silly. You still have to look good even you was watching people getting send to their death."

Oh my god. She was so beautiful. They way she laughed. It was just…..make me cant stop staring at her. My heart pumps, and I bet I looked like a fresh tomato that about to poop.

" Um…..are you okay?"

" Whoa, yes! Yes, I'm okay, I'm okay. Well…you're right! I-I better get going. Bye!" I was blushing.

" okay, may the odds be ever in your favor! And, I'm Carie!" said her, waving at me.

" I'm Kurt, and may the odds be ever in your favor too, Carie!" I put a big smile on my face.

Sheesh, how could I forget today was the Reaping? I run to my house immediately.

" Mooom! Daaad! Why you don't tell me today was the Reaping?" I said

" Wait, what? The Reaping? OH GOD GO GET DRESSED YOU TWO. We only have 30 minutes! " she said.

We run in panic. So, I get dressed quickly. White coat, black pants, and a pair of black shoes.

" mom, dad, I'm ready."

" you look handsome. Let's go, Kurt." She grabbed my hand and my father's hand.

On the way, I meet Carie's family. But I wonder, where is she? Then a voice coming from back, yep, its Carie. My heart stopped. She was wearing a pink dress, and she done nothing to her straight hair. Carie's mom and sister was also pretty. Tall and thin. Also, her father was super charming. What a cool family.

" hi! Ms. Flammington, your family looked very gorgeous!" my mom said, then hugged Ms. Flammington, then Mr. Flammington, also Carie and her sister. Should I hug her too?

" hi too, Mr&Ms. Poulannia. Kurt, you looked handsome! Have you met my child? This is Carie, and her sister Madeline."

" Thank you. I've met Carie this morning, Ms. Flammington." I smiled.

Then suddenly they all left me behind with Carie.

" hey you" she give me a weak punch on my shoulder.

" Hey Carie! By the way y-you looked…" great, now I'm speechless.

" looked horrible? Yes I know, I'm still sleepy.." she covered her eyes.

" N-no. you're beautiful.." I blushed.

" U-um, Thank you." She smiled to me.

Then Carie's family have to go somewhere first, so we separated. I feel glad, but also disappointed. Then, my father smiled to me.

" Carie is pretty, isn't she, Kurt?" He said.

" Yes, uh I mean, of course- today was the Reaping!" I'm blushing, again.

" You're blushing like a tomato when you talked to her. Mom, our child is already big now!" he laughed. Yes, red as tomato. Thank you for your information, dad.

" You're in crush with Carie? I'll say to Ms. Flammington, then you two can held a wedding. If she's your future wife, that would be perfect." She dreamed.

" N-no! let's just get focus on the Reaping. There will be 7 paper with my name in that bowl." I said.

" There you go, the tomato face coming back again." My mom and dad laughed all the way, but then their laugh stopped when we arrive in the district hall.
