A/N: Only five more tributes before SYOT closes! Then onto the Training! WOOHOO!
District Six, Jacqueline Edwards, 18
Known as the runt of the district
I am overlooked
But something they do not know about me
Are many things, plentiful
I am deadly with a whip
I once took a knife blade
Threw it in a powerful blender
Crushed it, then glued some shards onto a whip
It killed a dog
I wept for a week in private
But then I felt better
When a puppy appeared at our door
It was golden and brown
But had only one eye
Animals are rare in Six
So I took him
Named him Trevor
Trevor is my best friend
And when my parents died he was there for me
Licking my face and cuddling
Trevor is five now
And my great-aunt is finally beginning to accept him
Now he can fetch her things and she loves him
Today I am worried
For the Reaping
A terrible thing
But I do not think I will get chosen
But I fear for my cousins, relatives
Our escort reaches into the bowl
A smile creeps up her face
"Jacqueline Edwards" is all she says
Heads turn to me
I am scared
I burst into tears
They call me the runt of the district
Dwarf of six
I will prove them wrong
But I am scared.
A/N: New writing style. Just for Jackie, though. Next time maybe it will rhyme.
