I wake up to someone lightly sprinkling water on my face"Finnick wake up,you have to get ready now"my mother says.

"Ok,I know"but my palms are sweating,because it's finally the day of the reaping.

So I wash up and put on my best my mother and father walk with me to the scared but at the same time not that worried there's probably more than a thousand names in there.

"Welcome,happy hunger games and may the odds be ever in your favour"Arissa the girl who chooses the names says in that funny Capitol nows not the time to taking an awkwardly long pause she finally says."well first course ladies first"She walks over to the girls side to pull a name"Lilah Pierce"

I notice the girl doesn't look shocked or scared no trace of an emotion on her face.

"Now the boys"My heart speeds up and my palms are sweating again.

"Finnick Odair"My heart skips a I hesitantly slowly make my way up to the stage and I just make out my mom crying and my dad looks like he's trying hard to stay strong.

"Shake hands"in a rather to high pitched do and she escorts us inside the justice mom bursts into the room and hugs the edge of tears I hold them back because I can't look weak.

"Finn I know you can win your not going to die"More tears run down her cheeks"I'll try"I say sounding doubtful.

Then my dad comes and hugs dad was never one of those heart to heart people but I guess I would be too because I was his only child.

The suddenly the peace keepers are tearing them away from me and then I start to panic. But then my parents are gone and I realize that may be the last time I ever see them and then I'm really In danger of crying but then the door swings open and an unfamiliar girl stands by the door.

She has soft red brown hair but mostly brown and sea green eyes very light coloured skin unlike mostly all of district four with very tanned skin.

"Do I know you?" "No…but…umm,but do you have umm a token?" "No" "Well I was making this just in case someone I know goes to the games" "Why give it to me?" "Well Lilah doesn't like me,and I thought I should give it to you" "Well fine better than nothing"And she bracelet looks nice it's a simple string with shells all around it.

Annie~

"What's your name anyways?" "Annie,Annie Cresta" "oh" "there" I say as I finish putting it around his hand.

The peacekeepers come and escort me out and I really hope that Finnick Odair makes it out alive
