Katniss
My heart sank, I heard whisperings and gasps of how unfair it is for Prim who is only twelve-years-old and only had one of her name inside got reaped. As she walked towards the stage guarded by peacekeepers and tucking her tail, I started running and following her "Prim! Prim!" I yelled I tried to run over her and hug her telling her that it's going to be okay but the peacekeepers stopped me, before thinking I yelled "I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!" everyone turned around and gasp. With a sad expression on Effie's face and said "That's very nice of you dear but I'm afraid in President Snow's orders you are not allowed to volunteer for the hunger games."
I was speechless, I couldn't think straight. I was going to see my own little sister fight to the death in the hunger games with other probably older tributes in live TV. I can hear more gasps and whispers in the crowds and like me, I can see my mum looking terrified. The gasps and whispers were interrupted by Effie's voice, "And now for the male tribute." she went over to the bowl and randomly chose a name, she went back over to the microphone and said "The male tribute for district twelve is" and paused again before speaking "Peeta Mellark"
Oh no, it's him the boy with the bread, ever since I saw him in the school wrestling competition and he won second after his brother that held after school last year, I was thinking of him all-day. I had no idea why until I realised that I fell in love with him, and every day I'll go by the field and pick up a dandelion and leave it somewhere where Peeta might notice, though I never told him that I love him.
It was time to say goodbye, the peacekeeper said in a serious voice "You have ten minutes." and as soon as he opened the door I rushed inside, hugging Primrose for possibly the very last time, then I finally spoke, "Prim, you are a survivor you know the different types of edible plants and how to climb trees, find trustable allies possibly like Peeta and I believe in you." Then I gave her my Mockingjay pendant that I was given as a prize from school that I always wear in pride. "Wear this in the games when you feel lonely but remember I'll always be there for you." and Prim finally spoke, knowing that this might a real goodbye "I'll try my best" she sobbed, I wiped away her tears with my handkerchief "A..And It was br..brave of you t..to volunteer for m..me" she stammered and we hugged for the last time. Then the peacekeeper told us it was time to go. But I not done yet, I have one more person to say goodbye to.
