Commercial Break
On the screen is are two known reporters. Helena and Trap are seated next to a small screen that is now playing the Capitol anthem, sung by famous resident Cleo Wither. After the anthem is finished, a clip of the District 4 reaping takes its place.
Helena: Ladies and Gentleman! Welcome back to RR!
Trap: RR? Who decided on calling it that?
Helena: Shut your trap, Trap.
A laugh track plays as Trap stares at Helena with a mixture of disgust and annoyance.
Helena: Oh loosen up Trappy! Anyways, who's excited to see our District 4 tributes?
Camera cuts to studio audience members, who proceed to cheer like crazy.
Helena: (Grabs remote on her table and proceeds to press play) get ready to place some bets!

DISTRICT 4 REAPING
Trap, Capitol Reporter
The escort has some remarkable features to say the least. With her bright blue hair and fish gills, she is someone not easily forgotten. Although, most people would enjoy forgetting about her. Aqua has a gained a very certain reputation around the Capitol. But this is not about her, this is about the boy and the girl who will have their lives changed forever. Honestly, I've zoned out of her entire speech. Then Aqua finally sticks her hand into the Reaping bowl,
"Our male tribute is Avery Theron!" The camera shows a tiny boy from the 12 year old section. He gets a few tears in before another voice echoes throughout the crowd, "I volunteer as tribute!" A boy bursts out of the 15 year old section with a look of both regret and determination on his face. Aqua manages a strained smile,"What's your name?"
"Cole Silverback, ma'am". Aqua nods and shouts, "Onto the female tribute!" Before Aqua pulls out the card, a girl is already halfway to the stage. She takes the microphone out of Aqua's hands and says,
"My name is Marina Mallete and I volunteer as tribute!" The studio audience cheers at this girl's boldness, and I quickly write her name down. When I look back up at the screen, both tributes are shaking hands and Aqua has a shocked smile. The clip turns off and the Citizen message plays through.
Commercial break over, remember citizens to keep safe, happy games.
Badabing-Badaboom! First reaping done! Also, this Reaping chapter will get fixed up, if you haven't noticed already but I tend to make tiny changes to my story every day. So the last two chapters will get some nice make-overs in a bit. Thank you so much for the tributes (you know who you are) I still have some open slots! Thank you so much, review the tribute you like from District 4 (this could end up helping them in the long run)
