Cotton Silksky
District 8
I wake up and get into a gingham pink and white dress that goes down to my knees, then go and wake up my little sister Satin and my little brother Denim since my parents are probably busy looking after Sequin, Lacey and Patch, my younger sisters and brother.
When I get downstairs I find my mum holding Sequin, my dad holding Patch and Lacey is in a little cot. I take Sequin from my mum so she can finish making breakfast for everyone.
After everyone has eaten and is ready to go we all head to the reaping. I'm holding Sequin in my arms. When we arrive my mum puts Sequin into the buggy.
I get my finger pricked and then head over to the girl's area.

District 8
"Felt, get up darling!" I hear my mother call.
"Good morning!" I say back to her. I've been awake for ages. I couldn't sleep. It's reaping day.
"Oh good! You're awake!" she calls again.
I get up and put on my reaping outfit then I head down for breakfast. My 7 year old sister Heather is there too.
After the three of us have eaten we head down to the town square. My name is in the reaping bowl 4 times.
Our escort Zara walks onto the stage. After the usual boring speech and video she walks over to the boy's reaping bowl. Sometimes they decide to do boys first.
"Felt Velvetcloud!" Zara shouts.
I walk up to the stage.
Cotton Silksky
My best friend just got called. I can't believe it.
"Cotton Silksky!" I suddenly come out of my daydream at the sound of my name.
I walk up to the stage and shake hands with Felt. We are definitely allies.
My siblings and parents come to say goodbye to me.

My mother and sister come and say goodbye to me. I hope I can win so I can see my new baby brother/sister that my mum is expecting.
After they leave Zara takes me and Cotton to the train. I wish it could have been someone else who was chosen. I don't want either of us to die.
Hope you liked this chapter.
