A young twelve year old girl stood alongside her 5 siblings in District 11’s square. All anxiously waiting for the Reaping. One of her younger sisters said to her “Don’t worry, Rue. You only have one name in you won’t get chosen, for sure!” Her sister smiled. It was the usual every year. Announcer, Reminder, Tributes won in the past, Girl’s Reaping, Boy’s reaping, visit, and leave. The woman on the stage went through it all fast this year, unlike the past where it took at least an hour. But Rue was just 12. Her first reaping, she shivered in fear and the Announcement seemed like it took forever. “Ladies First” The announcer said, sticking her thin arm into the huge glass ball of girl’s name.
“Rue (Last Name not mentioned)” Rue’s eyes jumped but held in the tears. She slowly made her way to the stage as her siblings clinged to her body. People had to rip them off her just so she could get to the stage. Rue shook hands with the Announcer and she went on to the Boy’s reaping. “Thresh” . Thresh walked up to the stage, shook hands with Rue, and the Announcer, and off they went.
Rue’s siblings all came to visit her in the hall, shivering, they all curled up with her crying. After a short 10 minutes the Peace Keepers took them away and off she went to the train. The train ride seemed to take forever. Soon enough, which actually seemed like years, they were at the capitol. Rue had eaten as much, not putting on a single pound. The chariot ride was hell, all the people screaming, the district 12 people were dazzling. Fire crowns and fire caps, just amazing. After President Snow they made their way to training, then a few days after, the night before the arena,
The Interview. She wears a purple gossamer gown complete with little fairy wings.
The day of the Arena.
Rue stood shivering, in her Green Blouse, beige pants and hunting boots. Along with a black hoodie, she bid farewell to her stylist and was sent into the arena. The twenty-four tributes all stood along a large circle on their metal plates. 60 seconds, all Rue saw was the Sparse Pine woods before the bell rang for them to go. She ran as fast as a Mockingjay could fly into the Cornucopia, grabbing a small bag and a dagger, she ran into the woods.
For the next three hours she kept a steady pace of jumping through the trees and walking. Rue managed to grab some good handfuls of berries as she jumped the trees, storing them in her small bag. “I can do this..” Rue said to herself as she found a tree as the heat dropped to below zero. Rue opened her pack she got and found some extra socks, which she placed on her hands.
The Anthem Scared Rue she almost fell out of her tree. The dead tributes from the blood bath..
District 3 girl
District 4 boy
District 5 boy
District 6 boy
District 6 girl
District 7 boy
District 7 girl
District 8 boy
District 9 boy
District 9 girl
District 10 girl
Rue fell asleep after the Anthem finished, and the tributes were gone. “I wonder where Thresh is right now..” she said in a whisper as she watched the Mockingjays settle down for the night.
When she woke in the morning it was already scorching hot and the sun was high in the sky. Noon, Rue thought. Within minutes of waking up she was jumping through the trees eating small handfuls of berries. ‘
“It’s been days and I haven’t seen anyone..” Rue thought to herself. But she spoke to soon, from the tree she was sitting in; she could see Katniss inside the tree across. Hiding from the Careers below, but they had already spotted her.
I noticed something hanging above Katniss, a Tracker Jacker nest. I raised my arm up and pointed to the nest, and she looked up. Then back at me, but I already melted into the tree again. I son was jumping from tree to tree, away from the careers but keeping a eye on them. I stopped a few trees away and stayed there over night. When I woke, I noticed Katniss was up. I pointed to the nest again and she made a sawing motion with her knife. I nodded then turned away to hide, next thing I know, I see the careers, and the other male tribute from district 12, running towards the lake with the wasps chasing them. But, two were missing. I went back and saw the Blonde girl with green eyes running then twitching on the ground, then lay still. No cannon yet, and the other one, just ran into the forest, no doubt she didn’t make it far, I don’t think she could make it.
I remember Katniss ran away, and there were burns on her. So I jumped from the trees and followed her to this pool, then, Katniss jumped up and ran towards the Blonde girl. About three minutes after Katniss left I hear a cannon. Most likely the one who fell and twitched to death on the ground. When Katniss doesn’t return I got worried, so I headed towards the direction she headed and looked. After a while I found her, laying on the ground unconscious. Must have been the stings she got. I keep a watch on her for the next two days while gathering small handfuls of berries and these leafs that we used back home in the orchards when someone got a sting, it always works.
When I return, Katniss is aroused. I hope she didn’t spot me in the tree, because if she did, She’d probably kill me with the new arrows. Instead, she asked how long she was out, and who was dead. Then offered me some meat, and insisted she’d be my ally. We ate, filled up and discussed a plan while we took turns healing each other’s burns and stings. After about three days of foraging we left for our plan. To make three fires, at last minute, I taught Katniss the whistle I used in the orchids to let her know I’m okay when she hears it.
While Katniss goes to blow up the Career’s food. I managed to make the first two fire’s setup and the third one. I light the first fire to draw the career’s away, in about an hour I hear this huge explosion, and I look towards the sound and it came from the lake. Katniss got the food, I hope. I light the second fire and then I go to sleep, waiting for Katniss in the morning. When I wake up, I’m wondering around the area, and let out the whistle to let Katniss know I’m okay, if she can hear the Mockingjays. “I think it’s final 8..” I said, just as a net fell upon me. “KATNISS” I scream, and again, “KATNISS!!!” I heart it echo, then, Katniss appears. I stick my hand through the net, then, the piercing pain.
The boy’s spear went into the shaft of my stomach. Katniss shoots an arrow into what I can see the boy’s neck, and he shortens his life by yanking it out and falls to drowned in his own blood. Katniss said “Rue, are there more? Rue?” I had to say “No” several times before she heard me. She cut the net from around me and sat there, “Get rid of food..?” I ask, “Every last bit.” “Katniss.. you.. have to win…” “I will. For the both of us.” Then, goes off the boy’s cannon. “Don’t leave, Katniss.” I say, “Don’t worry Rue. I won’t.” I finally begin to cry. “Sing..” it takes Katniss a few seconds to start.
“
Deep in the meadow, under the willow
A bed of grass, a soft green pillow
Lay down your head, and close your eyes
And when they open, the sun will rise
Here it's safe, and here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet--
--and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place where I love you.”
I close my eyes and listen to her beautiful voice, and feel her tear on my cheek.
“Deep in the meadow, hidden far away
A cloak of leaves, a moonbeam ray
Forget your woes and let your troubles lay
And when again it's morning, they'll wash away”
Katniss began to slow down and cry,
“Here it's safe, and here it's warm
Here the daisies guard you from every harm
Here your dreams are sweet--
-- and tomorrow brings them true
Here is the place where I love you.
Here is the place where I love you.”
I hear my cannon start, and a wet tear from Katniss, and I'm gone.
Rest in Peace, Rue.

Primrose's POV. SPOILERS.
I walk around my patience’s room in district 13, Katniss went off to war in the capitol and Peeta went with her, Mother is also in the Hospital with me. I’ve almost become a Nurse, I’m trying to do larger tasks for the hospital here, but, I’m only 14.
With Katniss away for the third time… I’m really afraid but I know she can make it. She’s won the Hunger Games once, and escaped once as well. But this is war, the capitol. One bullet, she’s dead, I have nightmares every night she’s away from us, the same pain I had when she volunteered to take my place in The Hunger Games two years ago.
I’ve been begging President Coin to let me go with the Medical team to the Capitol, because I want to be part in the rebellion as well. I hate the capitol, they deserve to die, no, explode and burn to the ground. Like district 13 and 12 did, or their Children get sent to the Hunger Games to get slaughtered. Very much like the Twenty Three tributes that never leave the arena each year. Maybe both. I curl up in bed with Buttercup, my cat, like every night. And weep into her yellow orange fur. The news said Katniss was killed, as some things called Pods went off.
The nightmares persist, Katniss getting killed one thousand different ways, blood, gore, everything. Mom getting taken away from me, it really hurts. I wake up at the usual time, happy to be free of the dreams. I stick my arm into the hole in the wall to be assigned my Nurse Schedule, and to go and eat. As I look at it, I notice something. “10:35: Coin’s Office.” I get excited and can barely finish my meager breakfast, the two hours seem to pass super slowly at the hospital, 10:35 comes around and I run, even if it’s illegal, to President Coin’s office. “Prim.” He says in a stern voice. “I’ve decided to let you go to the Rebellion in the capitol. You are Squad Number one, you depart in two days.” He hands me a pale box with my Nurse uniform in it. I thank him and run off to pack for the Capitol and to tell Mother.
I wake up, earlier then usual, to meet the squad I’m in and to get Medical Supplies. One final good-bye to Mom, and I leave. The hovercraft is equipped with weapons, and bombs. Once we get to the capitol we’re rushed into this building, across from President Snow’s Mansion. I see these people, children, when I look closer there is a good thirty of them, and people with guns trying to get to the mansion. That’s when it hits me.
“Snow is using those children as guards!!” I blurt out loudly. My eyes are wide, then, a commotion in the crowd. The crowd parts, screaming “The Rebels!! The Rebels!!” and I know they must have broken through. I see the rebels pushing people into the side alleys and avenues in the square. I scan the area to see if there is going to be a bombing. But it doesn’t happen. But then, it appears. A hovercraft, with the capitols seal appears. It drops the silver parachutes down to the children in the barricade; they all know what it means. Food, medicine. Their small fingers fumble the strings to get them open, the hovercraft vanishes. A long five seconds pass, and the parachutes go off.
About Twenty Parachutes go off. The crowd screams, and there’s body parts and blood splattered all over the snow. Many of the children die immediately, but a few stay alive in agonizing pain. Many of the remaining children continue to go at the parachutes if there’s something still inside them. There is a path made for us medics to go and tend to the children, in an orderly line we quickly make our way to the children and begin to work on the wounded ones, we are rebel medics, saving Capitol Children. Doesn’t seem right. I yank off my coat and cover a wailing child, my blonde brad sways to my side. My shirt becomes untouched and forms a duck tail, the kind that Katniss would call me Little Duck and tuck it back in. I look into the crowd at a whisper of my name in the uproar. “Prim!!” I hear. I dart my eyes around, then I see her. I say her name, and I know she sees me. Then, that’s when everything went black.
The remaining parachutes went off, killing Prim.
