Hunger Games: prim
"No!" I woke with a start this morning I had another dream. No not another one! Night after night of unbearable agony! Why was it me? Why did they pick up my name? It was only in their once! Only once, Gale- Katness' friend and I think crush- had his name in 82 times. Katness- my older sister- had hers in 20. I was fine!
"Sh it was only a dream it was only a dream" Katness, I woke her up when I screamed in my nightmare.
"It was real!" I cried, "I was their! It was real!" I knew it was a dream but the way it looked, the way it sounded,
It felt so real!
"Sh your names only been in their once. Their not going to pick you," she told me trying to calm me down. Her efforts where in vain,however, I still felt the tears on my cheek, the grip on my hand as they pulled me up. I felt so helpless.
"Will you sing the hanging tree?" The song was not the softest song in the valley, but I loved to here it no matter when!
"Of corse." Katness said as she launched into song. Her voice was so soft every sound was as as sweet as honey.
"Are you, are you
Coming to the tree,
Where they strung up a man they say murdered three,
strange things did happen here,
no stranger would it be,
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, Are you
Coming to the tree
Where the dead man called out for his love to flee,
strange things did happen here,
No stranger would it be,
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, are you,
Coming to the tree,
Where I told you to run so we'd both be free,
strange things did happen here,
No stranger would it be,
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree.
Are you, Are you,
Coming to the tree,
Wear a necklace of rope side by side with me,
strage things did happen here,
No stranger would it be,
If we met up at midnight in the hanging tree."
As she sang I fell asleep in her arms.
