Silently I see Effie's mouth move but I hear no words but somehow I know what she's saying. It might be just because Gale is moving slowly up to the front and peacekeepers are walking towards him so he doesn't escape. I'm not sure what to do. I have to go against Gale a Peeta in the Hunger Games. This horrible thought makes me want to cry. But I cannot because that will make me weak, and I cannot be weak not now.

We all watch as Gale walks up to the stage. We are shocked; hopefully I don't have to kill either one of them. I will have to hunting buddy anymore. I won't be able to see Peeta anymore if I come back…. Never again will I ever see them after the games.

Effie then told the three of us to shake hands. So we did, and we were escorted back stage where we would all say goodbye to our loved. When Prim entered my room she was crying so I hugged her and told my mom that she had to stay strong. There was no way that she was going to leave Prim like she left us when my dad had died a few years back. All she did was nod her head and watched me knowing that this might be the last time that she would see me alive in person. Without warning the big heavy door opened and the peacekeepers took my mom and Prim away from me.

The next thing I knew I was on a train with Peeta and Gale. We sat there for a while staring at each other not knowing what to do. Suddenly Gale broke the silence asking me what would happen to Prim my mom and his family. All I told him was that I had no idea. All of us might die so they would have to take care of themselves neither of us where going to be there to help hunt. None of us knew what to do or what was going to happen.

Without notice our mentor walked into the doors. He was tall and had a tux on….
