Keira Matriss's POV
I was working on a dress for my baby sister, Rose. It was for special occasions, like today, the Reaping. I worked feverishly at my sewing machine to get it done before 3 o'clock. I sewed on ruffles and bows, until it was one of the frilliest things I had ever seen. Rose would like it, she liked fluffy things. I went down stairs and put it on her; she laughed and clapped her hands. I loved babies. My mother came down, "Come on, we have to go." I looked at the homemade clock on the wall; 2:40. Shit! I ran up the stairs, and threw on a red velvet dress I had been given by relatives. I stepped into some red flats and dashed down stairs.
"Ready." I said with a smile. My mother rolled her eyes, and picked up Rose.
We walked with an urgent pace, you weren't late for the Reaping.
"Now to pick our girl tribute." Said our escort, Beely Humb.I sprinted and made to the 13 section. I was wrong about Rose's dress. This woman was the frilliest thing I had ever seen. "Keira Matriss!" The speakers were behind me. I spun only to realize the awful truth. I walked slowly and jerkily up to stage only, not looking at anything or anyone. I stood behind Beely. "How lovely, now to Reap our boy tribute. . . Bryce Benson!"
Bryce Benson's POV
Me? I smacked the confusion off my face and grinned like an idiot. I walked up to the stage and fixed my flannel shirt.
"Let's have it for our tributes!" We were marched to the Justice Building, where we will be saying goodbye to our family and friends.
My parents came to see me first. My father had silent tears running down his face. He came and hugged me. I wasn't going to cry, I buried my face in his shirt. I'm not looking weak, it ain't happening "Please come back, son."
"I will try my hardest, father"
"Good luck, hunn." My mother gives me a kiss on the cheek. They tell me they love me and they're gone.
My buddy, Rufus, came in to give me a hug.
"Good luck, dude."
"Thanks." He left I examined the bracelet I had slipped on mindlessly this morning. It was a blue wristband with a golden wolf on it. This would be my token.
