250th Hunger Games: Little Flowers

by HiddenBeneathTheMoonlight

"This year as a reminder that even the youngest among us have played a part in the districts ever trying to rebel, all of the tributes shall be reaped from the 12 year old children." President Antonetta Redvale {Not an SYOT, so will be quick hopefully, the next one in this little series is though} :) Rated T cos it's the Hunger Games

5. District 4 reaping

Holly-Blue Oceansong

District 4

I wake up to the sound of the sea. I also wake up to my mother calling me to wake me up.

"Mum, why are you waking me up this early. I don't have work today." I say.

"Blue, it's the reaping today, remember?" she calls softly.

"Oh. I'd better get dressed then." I respond before getting out of bed and getting dressed into my favourite blue dress. It's long with long sleeves. It has a pattern of the sea and waves on it. Then I put on some blue sandals and tie my long blonde hair up into a ponytail over my right shoulder.

Once I'm ready I go downstairs to eat breakfast. I have a bit of salmon to eat and then my mum takes me, my older brother Indigo, my twin brother Cobalt and my baby sister Maya to the reaping. Only me and Cobalt are actually in it this year. I just hope neither of us gets picked.

Our escort Skye walks onto the stage. She reads the treaty of the treason and then puts on the video. After that she walks over to the girl's reaping bowl.

"Ladies first! Holly-Blue Oceansong!" she announces.

I walk up to the stage.

District 4

I watch the girl walk up to the stage. She is crying. I realise it's my best friend's twin. Soon after I see Skye walk over to the boy's reaping bowl. I hope it's not me. I wouldn't be able to stand leaving my little sister, Orchid.

"Cobalt Oceansong!" she calls.

No one is going to volunteer for him. I can't let my friend go in, especially not with his twin.

"I volunteer as tribute!" I shout.

"Thank you." Cobalt says to me.

I walk up to the stage. When I am there I shake hands with Blue.

I can't believe Cobalt's name was called. I am just so grateful to Cyan for volunteering. I remember him being one of Cobalt's best friends.

Soon my parents, Indigo, Cobalt and Maya are coming to say goodbye to me. I tell them I'm going to win for them. I can't leave Maya behind, not ever really knowing me.

Then they leave.

My parents come into the room with Orchid in my mother's arms. After they leave, Cobalt comes in.

"I'm so sorry you have to be in these games..." he starts before I interrupt him.

"No, I couldn't let you go in with your twin. I'm going to make sure she wins. Goodbye." I tell him

He looks at me silently. I know he doesn't want me to win, well not in his sister's place.

Then all too soon he has to leave and Skye takes me and Blue to the train.

Hope you liked this :)
