"Rose Jackson!" I slowly and nervously begin to walk towards and up the steps to the stage where Effie stands. "Our male tribute will be…" she pauses to pull a name out of the glass bowl that holds the names of the males eligible for the hunger games. "Luke McKinney!" Effie shouts. I begin to feel even more dizzy and tears come to my eyes. Luke… my best friend from my childhood… and now I'm going to have to kill him?! The tears threaten to spill over my lashes, but I blink rapidly so they will not fall. I will not give the capitol the pleasure of seeing me crying. Effie takes my right hand and Luke's left hand and links them together, holds our Luke's and my linked hands up into the air, and shouts "Districts and Capitol! I give you the tributes of district 12, the district of coal mining and Katniss Everdeen! Then a few peacekeepers separate Luke and I. they lead us to the train cars were we will say our, and most likely last, goodbyes to our friends and family in district 12…

MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA! I love cliffhangers when I'm the one writing it!

I know it was short again, but if you guys really want more chapters, press that perdy button and give me at least 5 reviews. Or else you can't have the next chapter, which will be slightly longer than the first 2. Yes. I'm really that kind of person. MWAHAHA! And I don't care if you use different accounts, either. Thanks to you people who gave me the nice and helpful reviews! You know who you are Cya in the next chapter!
