Lacy Spear
Lacy was in trouble. She knew this the minute she woke up. The air was hot, making it hard to breath. A slight rocking motion surrounded Lacy as she heard the snapping of rope and sails. She opened her eyes and saw... white canvas. She propped herself up on her elbows and looked around. She was in a lifeboat. "How'd I get here? she though, though she already had the answer.
The night before Lacy had been on the huge fishing boat Isabelle, cleaning it out in preparation for a 3 week voyage to get some exotic fish for the Capitol. Lacy had worked till 2 in the morning when she finally gave up and went to have a nap in the lifeboat. Apparently she had overslept.
"This is not good," she thought, slightly afraid. She could be seen as a stowaway which meant being thrown overboard or returned to District 4, headed for the Peacekeeps office. She thought about what she was going too do when footsteps could be heard. They came closer to the boat till they stopped, seemingly right next to it. Lacy froze, not even daring to breath. Then... with a whoosh the canvas cover was thrown back over Lacy's head.
