I do not own The Hunger Games, only Rain.
"You stupid no good little worthless girl." my mother screamed at me. Don't worry she has been yelling and hitting me since I've been 5. After my dad died; since he would keep her from me.
Let me tell you about myself. Trying not to sound conceited right now. My name is Rain Misery Blue. Yes I know it's a weird last name, but it's my dad's last name. I have long black hair, which goes down to my elbows. Green eyes that are brown in the dark, and a large smile that almost never comes out. I live in District 12 with my mother Mary Lu. My best friend is a small little girl named Prim. She is beautiful, not to sound like a creeper. She is the only person that accepts me; I just need to make sure my mother never knows about her. One more thing I'm a mute, ever since I was little. I have said a word, never made a sound. Also my mother changed my name, to nothing.
"Say something!" she screams at me. I look at her blackly. Today is reaping day. My name is in it 52 times. My mother wants me to die without killing me.
She goes to grab a picture to throw it at me. I just get up before it can hit me and leave the house. Katniss should be gone by now to get something for reaping night. I can go see Prim and their mother.
I leave my mother screaming and shouting curses at me as I leave. I walk to Prim's house and knock on the door.
"Who is it?" I heard their mother say calmly. I just knock three times hard to let them know it's me. I hear Prim yell in happiness. She opens the door quickly and hugs me tightly. I wrap my arms around her smiling a little bit.
"Prim let her in," Prim's mother says. I smile weakly at her. "Do you need any bruises treated?" she asks. I shake my head no.
"Mom can I show Rain the flowers I planted?" Prim asks her mother. "Go ahead," she answered. Prim grabs my hand and runs to the back. There is a small portion of yard with yellow daisies. I sign to her that they are cute.
"Thank you," she thanks. "Rain I'm scared." she says in shaky voice. I sign to her that I know and I am too. I take off the necklace that my father gave me. I put it on Prim. Here with this you will always be safe, no matter what. I sign to her.
I see Katniss and Gale coming back from the woods. I get up point to them, and then wave saying good bye. I should get dressed soon for the reaping.
