Kim's pov
''Now the man '' she says walking over to the other bowl leaving me standing at the other side of the stage
I say the hand go into the bowl and pick out one, I held my breath hoping that it's nobody I know or care about.
''Jack Anderson ''
I screamed and everybody looked at me like I was crazy, he walked up to the stage staring into my eyes the whole time
Effie pushed us together to shake hands but he pushed my hand away and wrapped His arms around me and said ''hey Kimmy '' I responded by a smile when he pulled away
''may I present to you the tributes from district 12''Effie said with actual excitement but what she say next really gets me pissed
''And it looks like we have two lookers this year '' she says, I felt like punching her but I forced my hand down. After the reaping we have 3 minutes with our families to say goodbye
I waited in the justice building until Emma and my mum walked in, Emma ran straight for me to give me a hug, I hugged her back with all my might
''don't worry everything is going to be ok, I taught you how to hunt ok, just till I get back ok?''
''she nodded while wiping her tears, I got up an walked over to my mom
''you better not leave her; you are her only hope now!' I said while I hugged her, ''I love you mom''
She nodded into my back while I was hugging her I pulled away and as if on cue the peacekeepers came in and chucked them out, then grace comes in, SHE'S THE PRESIDENTS DAUGHTER! What is she doing here?
''Hey '' she said
''Hi '' I said slightly confused
''you know the way you get to bring a symbol of your district? , this is going to be yours ''she says after pinning it to my jacket
The peacekeepers came in and forced grace out then I was guided to the train were jack was.
I really needed to talk to him
When I go to the train it was magnificent , I have never seen anything like it before , all the furniture was glass aswell as the countertops with a 90' inch flat screen tv on the middle of the wall.
I went to sit on the couch and waited for jack to come but after about 10 minutes i got bored so i turned on the tv and a capitol broadcast came on . itshowed district 13 and the ruins but what suprises me is that you can see the top if a mockinjay's wing in every clip but it was proboly just a coincidence .
A hand touched my shoulder and i looked up to see jack and the sadness in his eyes , he sat next to me and grabbed my hand and gave it a quick sqeeze then let go . we just sat in silence waitling for someone to speak first .
''kim , are you scared ?'' he asked the one question i didt even want to aanswer to myself . i had to think of right answer because if i say no hell think im laying to him and if i say yes then he will worrie about me more so i went with the answer inbetween .
''i really don't know '' i said with clear sadness in my voice he nodded and pulled me into a hug like we are never going to see or talk to eachother again which we proboly wont , i pulledaway at the clearing of someboddys throat , we looked up to see effie trinkquet with a annoyed and irritated expression on her face she rolled her eyesat us and pointed a finger to jack and then me continuously and then said ''so i guess youse to know eachother '' she said with a very smug ring to her voice .
We both nodded and moved further away from eachother on the couch .''we were best friends ''i said like i was about to cry , i didn't want to give effie the pleasure of seaing that so i stalked off to my room and decided i should get some rest for the following week which might and proboly might be my last .

I woke up to someone nocking on my door so i went to answer it hoping it was jack but to my sorrow it wasn't . it was a thin looking boy with girnger/brown hair and blue eyes and he looked very smart . i walked back so he realized i was giving him permission to some inside and he did .i sat on my bed and waited for him to start talking.
''im sorry your sister was picked but if it helps that was the most bravest thing i have seen '' he said holding out his hand ''im Milton '' i took his hand and shook it and replied with a simple ''im kim crawford'' he let go of my hand and started to examine my body like he was working something out in his head . OH ! now i get it he is my stylist and will proboly be the only one (besides jack) that i like and that seems decent enough . he led me out the door and down the hall to some sort of dressing room and looked through the outfits then he picked out a black all-over with metal plaites on it , it was absolutely magnificent the he got out a lighter and lit the clothes on fire but when he did i expected it to burst into flames but it just formed at the back to make a firey cape , i smiled and he lloked very pleased with himself then he pressed a button and the flames went out with a sudden sstop then he spoke up
''it is for the chariot ride '' he said then i remembered there was a chariot ride to the training centre and all the tributes has to take a chariot pulled by horses to the training ccentre wearing their districts uses clothes . and i understand instead of coal he is representing us as fire and i liked the idea of being known as the girl on fire and it will go well with my long blonde hair .
5 minutes later i was in the suit and jack walked in and i nearly laughed when he forgot to knock because he looked at me and seemed embarrassed so i got up and hugged him and whispered into his ear to come by my room when he is finished , we pulled away and he nodded and walked in and introduced himself to Milton who looked at both of us with a suspicious glare in his eye .
I walked into my room and waited for jack to come in and about 10 minutes later he walked in and the out-fit realy did show off his musceles .
He walked over and sat on the bed next to me and i immediately said '' jack , we have to talk...
