prim is screaming hysterically behind me. She's wrapped her skinny arms around me like a vice. No, Katniss, no, You can't go prim. Let go, I say harshly because this is upsetting me, and I don't want to cry. When they televise the replay of the readings tonight, everyone will make no of my tears and I'll be marked as an easy target. A weakling. I will give no one that satisfaction. Let go. I can feel someone pulling her from my back. I turn and see. Gail has lifted prim off the ground, and she's thrashing in his arms. Up you go catnip, he says in a voice. He's fighting to keep steady, and then he carries prim off toward my mother. I steel myself and climbed the steps. Well, Bravo gushes. Effie Trinket. That's the spirit of the games. She's pleased to finally have a district with a little action going on in it. What's your name? I swallow hard. Katniss Everdeen, I say. I bet my buns That was your sister. I don't want her to steal all the glory. Dewey. Come on, everybody. Let's give a big round of applause to our newest tribute trills. Effie trinket to the everlasting credit of the people of District 12. Not one person collapse, not even the ones holding betting slips, the ones who are usually beyond caring, possibly because they know me from the hub or knew my father or have encountered prim who no one can help loving. So instead of acknowledging applause, I stand there unmoving. Well, they take part in the boldest form of dissent. They can manage silence, which says we do not agree. We do not condone all of this is wrong.
