Rory pushed through the crowd, looking for someone he could follow, who knew what they were doing. He had always felt like this on Reaping Day. Confused, anxious. He spotted his friend Jesse ahead and waved, trying to get his attention. His voice was lost in the crowd.

(Sorry, I left for a while.)
The next morning Krista woke up bright and early to the yelling of her many siblings. Again. She turned over in her cot and sighed. It was Reaping Day.

"Lark Hanson! Come on up, Lark!" the speaker said.

I'm backk, they had to move my appointment time :b

By time Krista and her siblings were up, fed, showered and dressed, the reaping had already started. She arrived just as her name was drawn from the bowl (it's a bowl, right?) and read to the crowd. "Krista Lutz!"

Melody tied her dress. It was small and quite revealing of her legs. She sighed, and grabbed a curtain that wasn't frilly and sequined. She cut the correct size out and pulled it on. Needs one more thing… She took some fake roses and covered the front with the petals she stripped of of the stalks. Not my best work, but it's passable.

Lark was stunned. He never would have expected that. But after signing up for tesserae grains eleven times, it was obvious. He was the only male who had it that bad to need the food.

Name: Ronny Hinton
Age: 15
Gender: male
District: 3
Family: none, he lives alone and takes care of himself
Appearance: shaggy dirty blonde hair, grey-blue eyes, intense eyebrows
Personality: harsh, only cares about himself (most of the time), smart, good at noticing small details

Ronny couldn't care less about being chosen for the Games. He never attended the choosing ceremony anyway. So when district guards came to his home on the evening of the reaping, he was stunned. "I… I can't have been picked!" he protested. "No!" But there was nothing he could do.

He walked up to the stage, unsure what to think. Everyone in his district knew him, he always caught fish, or voles, or deer, nut and berries, and sold them with his sister, Rachel. She was so smart in every aspect, she did more teaching of him even though he was her mentor. But, it was never enough. So the tesserae. He never really thought about the games, he just pushed away the thought. But he couldn't deny it now. He was now a capital pawn, slave of Panem, a mere gladiator in a large battle.

Aster wiggled in his uncomfortable clothing, his sister-in-law Alex was fixing his blonde hair.

"You will be fine, your brother and I will be waiting for you to come home, and we will celebrate yet another year of you staying here!" She exclaimed, her blue eyes full of hope. Alex had practically raised Aster as her own son, him being thirteen years younger than both of them. the blonde boy only nodded, giving her a small smile.

"Alright, let the kid go, you've adjusted his clothing and hair five times already, come on." Came the deep voice of his brother.

Aster made his way into the crowd of boys after checking in. He stood, his arms hanging awkwardly at his sides. He stared into space, only the sound of "Welcome!" snapped him out of it, making him stuff his hands into the pockets of his old dress pants.

(K, guys I'm pretty sure it was required to go to the reaping in the books, soo…)

(Yeah, just trying to think of more interesting "getting reaped" scenes. Right now everyone basically has the exact same scene. Could he just be breaking the rules? I can change it if necessary though.)

Zoe studied the boy, whose name was Lark. He didn't look like a threat but, Zoe never underestimates an opponent. After they shook hands, Zoe was dragged away to the Justice building where she would have to say good-bye. Nico came in with a teary good-bye and gave her hear favorite coat. Then Maddie came in. She gave her a pin of a MockingJay: "Take this, it will give you luck and she left. There wasn't much at all. In fact, they were the only ones who visited her. A few minutes in the quiet room was all she needed before the peacekeepers went in and took her to the train with the Lark boy. Once she was on, she traveled through the passageways that led her to an apartment where Haymitch was sitting. "Well, this is going to be fun." Zoe thought to herself.

"Lavender Mason!" The man cried out. The color left Lavender's face. Her? How?! "Come up here sweetie!" the man waved. Lavender stood rooted to the spot. And then fainted.
