Author note : This is a fast forward to Leena's reapings one year later, for the 72nd games.
Sweet untouched. I smooth out my baby blue dress. I have to do this my family needs the money. The victor money will help so much.
But what Gloss has said. He told me that the games are not all glory. He told me about the nightmares. Some daysI would wake up and he would be gone, ashamed of his nightmares. But it is a price I will have to pay.
I look in the mirror, to think that someone like me could have fell in love one year ago. It feels like forever ago.
I know he doesn't want me to volunteer, but I have to.
All the girl in my section stand ready to run on stage. I got to get up there even if I lose my untouched soul.
" Ladies and Gentlemen,Its time for one man and one women to represent District 1," The tall blue skinned escort says. " Ladies first," she says happily.
She picks a name "Glimmer-" She starts
" I volunteer," I say running on the stage. "And whats your name," She says very joyfully.
"Leena Shimmer," I say shaking a little.
I look over to where the mentors sit. The girl Cashmere smiles at me. Gloss gives me a look of shock, all most scared look. " Leena," He mouths His lips tremble a little. I close my eyes to keep from crying.
I'm sorry.
