HEY! So this is the first part, I kind of thought, well how would Prim feel so this is how i thought she would, trying to stay as in character as i can but yah REVIEW PLEASE!

DISCLAIMER! I do not own the character or setting or the dialouge, though this is my personal rendering of Prim sooo yah... and i know I kinda screwed up some of the dialouge a bit, sorry don't have the book on hand at the moment. sooo sorry for that. but thanks for at least reading this far... Happy Readin'!

I sit at home and comb through my thin blonde hair. How I wish it was longer and thicker, like Katniss'. Katniss, my big sister, my savior. I love her more than anything in the world, and I know she loves me that much too, or else I wouldn't be standing here. Our father died 5 years ago, I was 7. I had no idea what was going on, just that father never came home anymore and mother would just sit in bed all day, not moving, not eating. I would beg her to get up, to move to eat, but it was as if she wasn't there, just an empty shell that looked like my mother.

Katniss is who kept us alive. She would take me gathering through the Meadow, the outskirts of District 12. She hunted outside of the fence, she tried to teach me to hunt also, but I can't kill anything, I can only heal. So slowly our mother came back to us. I was glad she came back and forgave her for leaving, but I can tell that Katniss never trusted her again the way I do, not because she doesn't love our mother, but because she doesn't want me or herself to get hurt again. It's because Katniss cares.

Right now she's out hunting in the woods with Gale. Gale, Katniss met him hunting 5 years ago and they're best friends, or so they say. I don't know about anyone else but they don't fool me. I can tell that they're obviously totally in love with each other.

My mother is in the kitchen making some herbal remedies that she sells. The scent drifts through the house. I smell mint and sandalwood and some Primrose, the flower I was named for. We get most of our food from Katniss, though we use the money from my mother's remedies to buy other stuff like soap and things.

I get up and walk into the kitchen. My mother's foot is tapping as she mashes the leaves and berries. I can tell she's nervous, we're all nervous, the whole country is nervous. Today is the reaping day. The day one male and one female teenager is chosen to battle to the death in an arena for the Capitol's amusement. Today is my first reaping in which I am eligible to be chosen, I am 12 years old and my name has been entered once. Katniss' name should be entered 5 times, but it's been entered 20 times, in exchange for food over the years. We live in the Seam, the poor part of the poorest District.

I scoop up Buttercup, my cat and agitatedly stroke him while I wait for Katniss to get home, though I don't like to show it I am really nervous about the reaping. Not for me really, but for Katniss and Gale, they have such a high chance and I couldn't bare… no, neither Katniss nor Gale will get chosen. Not in any way will either get chosen. Never, ever, ever….

"Mother, Prim, I'm home!" Katniss says as she enters the house.

"Oh you brought home fish… and strawberries! I love strawberries Katniss!"

"I know you do Prim, oh and Gale says thanks you for the goat cheese, it was very good,"

I beamed, I love my goat, Katniss was the one who got her for me.

We had a small meal of bread and roots before we left for the reaping. It was mandatory for every citizen and if you didn't attend you had better be on death's door because if you weren't the peace keepers were sure to make sure you got there.

"Can I have a strawberry now Katniss?" I asked her.

"No, Prim wait until after the reaping, than we can eat them to celebrate,"

I pouted and she cracked one of her rare smiles. I loved Katniss' smiles, they made hers seem, well happy if that makes sense. Katniss is never really happy, she's too busy fending for us to have time to be happy. That's why I love it when she smiles.

We took baths and changed into our finest clothes. Everyone looks they're best at the reaping, really sadistic if you ask me. I told that to Katniss once and all she asked me was where I learned what sadistic meant.

I changed into Katniss' first reaping outfit, a nice skirt and blouse. I was fixing my hair when Katniss came in dressed in one of our mother's fine dresses, from when she lived in the square as a merchant. She looked absolutely stunning.

"Wow Katniss you're so pretty!" I exclaimed and started hopping up and down unable to help myself.

"Your tail is sticking out little ducky," She said and tucked the over large blouse back into the skirt.

"Quack," I said and Katniss laughed. Her laugh is like her smile, really rare, but it transformed her.

"Come on ducky, let's go," she said and opened up the door.

Kay so that was the first bit, review please, hate it, love it, too bored to care? tell me so I can become a better writer... PLEASE!
