Ok first of I want to thank dwarfperson for ALWAYS reviewing! Thank you so very much. I was actually going to go a different way with this chapter but you mentioned Rue so I'd thought I'd make this about the tributes. Yes Rue will be in the story more later on. For now here's a glimpse of Rue.

*I own nothing* (I forgot to say that in the other chapters but that applies to those to)

Enjoy! :D

Ch4 "Reapings"

Effie, Peeta, and I are sitting on the couch just about to watch the reapings of the other districts. It's the only chance to see the other tributes before seeing them knife a dummy to pieces. This thought reminds me I need to learn how to use a weapon of any kind. Peeta could help me with that I suppose. He is the bakery's son, maybe he know a trick or two with a knife.

"Where Haymitch?" I just noticed his present was absent again. Where in the world was he? He missed lunch and now this. I hope he was ok.

" Oh heavens, who knows where that man is. I couldn't find him anywhere." Effie's accent was starting to bug me. It was just so… ehh what's the word, annoying. I won't tell her that though. That just would be mean.

I pay close attention to the television as the reapings play one by one. District's one tribute Glimmer was beautiful! Marvel on the other had was creepy looking to me. My stomach got into a knot when saw his face. Cato from district two scared the fudge out of me. He was pretty muscular and good looking too. Clove seems like a nice girl, pretty too. I can't help but think Cato and Clove would make a good couple, two bad that wouldn't work out.

The girl from District 5 seemed crafty. I didn't hear her name the escort's accent was very bad. Her face was worried but clam. Her red hair reminded me of fire. Those amber eyes would make it hard for me to not want to trust her in the arena. She can sure make an impression by not even speaking.

District 11's reaping is what haunted me the most. First the 12 year other girl was called, Rue. She had dark skin, black hair, and she was tiny, she reminded me of myself. The fear in her eye as she walked to the stage was the same fear in my eye. My heart sank when no one, not a soul volunteered for her. I felt terrible for rejecting Katniss' volunteer now. I bet she would have been grateful for that unlike me.

I could feel the tears in my eyes ready to come out. Peeta puts his hand over mine and gave me a gentle smile, I smiled back. He was so nice, I have only known tPeeta for a few hours and already feel close to him. I look back at the tv screen and see him, the boy from my dream. He looked as scary he did with that spear in his hand. He had muscle and look somewhat like Rue. His name was Thresh.

"Rue are you ok dear?" Did Effie just call me Rue or am I hearing things?

"I'm Fi- No. I need to uh-" That's all I say before I run to my room and start crying. This is the second time I'm crying today. If I'm like this now how will I be in the arena? There's no chance for me. None at all.

Peeta comes in to find me sitting on the floor, curled up, and weeping. He takes a seat next to me and immediately my head finds its way to his shoulder. He doesn't ask me what happened, are you okay, or why I'm crying. He just strokes my hair and and sits there with me. As if he knew no words could make me feel better, only crying can.

"I'm scared Peeta."

"Don't worry prim, nothing going go to happen to you."

"You don't know that." He pulls me of his shoulder to face him. His eyes stare right in to mine as he says,

"I won't let anything happen to you. I'd die before I did."

Before I can even reply or take in what he had just said he picks me up and tucks me into bed. He then kisses my forehead. Needless to say I had no nightmares that night…

Short I know Hmm I noticed I make Prim sleep alot. I was going to make Foxface's name Silver Tame (Type of fox) but the movie is going to name her, so I'll wait to add her name;) Please Review! Good, Bad, Comments, Suggestion for other chapters. Any one of those would be good :) thanks!
