Summary
First, it had been Juniper and Dylan. Those in District 7 stood with their mouths gaped open in shock as they watched the two teenagers get reaped for the 66th Hunger Games. Out of fear and denial, they tried to chalk it up to chance. After all, there was no way those kids had been picked.
But when Cynthia and Jasper were reaped the following year the people could no longer deny it. This had nothing to do with chance. It was all by design. They were being chosen for a very specific purpose—to send a message to the district.
By the time Willow and Finley had been reaped, everyone had come to expect it. The only consolation was that most families didn’t have to worry about their children getting sent to their deaths. They weren’t on what had been deemed the list.
And so, by the time the 69th Hunger Games came around, Halle Croft knew she was next.
Because she was the only one left.
“When you tear out a man’s tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you’re only telling the world you fear what he might say.” - George R.R. Martin, A Clash of Kings
