here is the Reeaping part for Sage.
*I walked out of bed and throw on some clothes after my short bath. My friend Niel walked in the kitchen from our bedroom. I live with his parents, so does my little brother. and his little brother. All 4 of us in one room, and his parents in the other*
That was 7 hours ago, now I am at the reaping destination, the town square. It is a large concrete blank space. with the orchards to the left and the town shops on the right. I sit next to Neil amongst the other 16 year olds. We wait impatiently, waiting for it to start.
"I wonder who will get chosen this year" Neil says.
"I hope it isnt one of us. I want this to go by quickly."
"Yeah" he mumbles
We see the mayor, a blading man with tan skin, walk up.
He talks forever about the history of Panem and we all sit, none of us listening. He introduces the mentor this year. Lucius Khan. Then he introduces our escort, Jyrone Effervence. He smiles a coy grin and wishes us all luck.
"Well, lets do girls first, shall we"
My stomach cramps up as I wait to see who will go in the arena.
"Allison Audilaire"
She stands up with red eyes and walks over, she is 18 and has stopped going to school, she got pregnant at 15, and is now 17 and she tries to run to her husband who is 19 and holding the baby, but the peacekeepers grab her instead. She kicks nd eventually settles into a chair and waits to see her baby, possibly for the last time. The baby starts crying.
"That baby can please quiet down." says the escort
Adrian shoots him a glare.
"boys are up now"
He dips his hand in the bowl and swirls it arund for what seems like an eternity.
"Sage Marler"
I look at Neil and then at the peacekeepers waiting for me to get up, all eyes on me I walk down the aisle and try to stay composed, but I do, while the mayor wishes us luck and the peacekeepers send us to the good-bye rooms.
I think of my plan, I need an alliance, not with Allison, she isnt being very complient, last thing I need is a troublemaker. I do feel bad for her baby though. I think of teaming up with few careers, and that sounds good, but not all of the careers, best thing to do is to split up the careers.
This thought is the last one I have before Neil walks into the room for good-byes...
