I was looking out the train window at the scenery around me with tears streaming down my face. Why me? Why couldn't it have been someone else. My mind switches back to when I said goodbye to my family and Jordan.813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxdg0Rzho1a

I was sitting in the room the peacekeepers took me in when my parents and sisters rush in. They all come over and envelope me in a huge hug with tears falling down their faces. Their all whispering words of comfort to me. Then we hear the door open again. They let go of me and see who it is. It's Jordan. I run away from my parents and into his arms. I just cry softly into his chest while he just whispers soothing words into my ear. We pull away from the embrace and I just look at him. 813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR7OibT3K2K

"Promise me you'll take care of them Jordan. Promise me that they will always have food to eat. Just promise me that one thing," I say to him.813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnblJy5iw9h

"I won't let you down," he said to me and planted a light kiss on my forehead. 813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfvzL8jJe4M

I then turned to my family and gave each one of them a hug. We all had a group hug until a peacekeeper came and told them they had to leave. We all said our final goodbyes and they left. 813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpaQLmd2LXk

Now here I am again in the train. We already met our mentors. Their names are Asher Knight and Anton Duval. Asher was the victor of the 54th Hunger Games. He won it with his charisma and intelligence. Then there's Anton. Anton is the winner of the 48th games. He won it by hiding out and setting traps for other tributes. I like Asher better though. He seems less up tight and more talkative. 813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡev2fwQffv8

"So... I'm 16. I have an older sister named Jennifer who's 17 and a younger sister named Jane who's 5. It was us three and my parents, we all loved each other so much. I didn't have very many friends since I'm so shy, but I left my childhood best-friend/boyfriend named Jordan. My fav-" I didn't get to finish my sentence because Anton called Asher.813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqER6ZTpJb

"Sorry we couldn't finish this, but I want to pick up on this later," and with that he left. I slumped back into my chair and stared out the window. This is gonna be a long journey.813Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKNlRSS0FM
