Hey guys! I already got one review one the first part, so I'm posting this! The next one won't be up till I get two more reviews, though. So, here's more story! I'll try and make this longer since the last one was short :P
Sill clove's P.O.V.
I finally get to the square, after what seems like ages of walking. I can hear the bees humming, buzzing, and trembling with anticipation. Then I realize that the trembling is me. I know I'm going to vouleenter, but who will my district partner be? Oh, well. I mean really, why should I care? I hear the chirp of a bird, the cry of another new 12 year old as their finger is pricked and some of their blood taken. I remember my first reaping and smile slightly. I remember my first time…Sammy is 13, and this is his second year and this is my fifth. His first was much better than mine though…He barley even flinched. However, I bit the peacekeeper's gloved hand. He still can't catch a glimpse of me without grimacing.
Soon enough, our escort, Lacey, bounces onto the stage. This is only her third year as a escort (so she's very young), as our last one died of a "heart attack" as the capitol said. But every here knows it was because of a big mouth she knew things she shouldn't about Snow, and she blabbed about it way too much.
Adam, our mentor, who is also pretty young, smiles at her is her flamboyant blue outfit. She looks like a blue-berry that had all the juice squeezed out of it, as she's super skinny.
She reaches the huge glass balls and her face contorts into a confused look. Then she smiles brightly. "This year, let's go with the gentlemen first." She walks over to the boys' ball and calls out the name: "Jake Hadley!"
Jake is a boy in my brother's class. And I babysit him all the time. He has a older brother, but he's totally untrustworthy. He's 18, and his name is Cato. He just keeps to himself whenever I'm over. And at school, he's that popular pretty boy who seems to be able to make most any girl swoon and fall to her knees with a single smile. Any girl except me and my friends. We all think he's an idiot and uncaring with no real heart.
But, hey. Sometimes people surprise you.
Like when Cato Hadley suddenly shouts: "I vouleneeter!"
2 more reviews and i'll put the next one up!
