Down by the bank,
Where the river grass grows.
You can see me wandering,
Where ever I go!

Erika Niles was just like another District 3 girl was, well except those who like to dress up. Oh and those who have two parents. That is right, Erika Niles has only her moter to rely on. But, even then she doesn't care for her mother that much. Her father abbandoned her when she was 11 years old and never got over it. But, here she is 16 and still growing.

Erika was outside looking around for her little brother who had ran off with some of his friends. Her mother had told her to go and get him, but she didn't feel like doing it. So, Erika just wondered the street, looking for somebody to talk to. But, nobody caught Erika's eye. But, as soon as she thought that, her little brother appeared.

"Where were you?" Erika scolded her little brother. "I was looking everywhere for you. Next time, you tell me where you are going, you got it?" He nodded his head.

They walked home in peace and quiet. But, once they got home, her mother threw a fit. And t wasn't her normal fit like when they were out a bit too long. Nope, this was a fit they had never seen before.

"James Niles I am so disappointed in you. You shoud not have left your sister without telling her where you went, young man."

"I am sorry, mom. But, TJ just wanted to go out and have fun."

"Fun?"

The conversation continued, but Erika didn't want to be apart of it any longer. She walked up into her room and got out her guitar from under her bed. She had made it when she got bored one day when her mother took James out. She walked out of her room, past her arguing mother and brother, and out into the open. Erika walked right under her big tree that gave her shelter while she sang.

Erika started to play it as she sang along to one of the songs she created.

"Any longer now, and I don't know what I would do without you. Any longer now, I wouldn't know how to hold up myself, without you. You know that you are part of my life now. And I can't lose you, or my life would come crumbling down. You know how much you mean to me, why chance it all? Any longer now, and I don't know what I would do without you. Any longer now, I wouldn't know how to hold up myself without you. Yes, I need you and now you know it. Why would you think of giving up on me?"

Erika strummed the last note before she heard someone clapping. She turned her head and saw her audience.

Karner Blue

"Wait! Come back!" I beckon the beautiful orange butterfly with unique wings. It's been a while since I've seen a Leapoard Lacewing and I'm not going to let it go away so easily. I want to see it up close like I do with the other butterflies. I even have a purple Passion Flower in my hands for a little encouragement, but she still wants to leave me.

I pout at the butterfly and for some reason it lands on a daisy, probably to take a rest from the fluttering it has done. Taking this opportunity to get a closer look, I crawl on the ground to creep up to the glorious insect. As soon as I am in a three foot radius of the butterfly, it decides to take off again, and I happily chase it.

People say I look weird for doing things like this, but I guess I'll always be that same kid I was when I first saw them. They look so cheerful and free, flying in the air. It's like I can be myself with them instead of worrying like all the grown ups do. I mean, why worry before anything bad happens? It just makes you unhappy.

Eventually, the butterfly becomes weary and slowly flutters in a circle in front of me. I gasp for joy and bring out my hands with the Passion Flower in it so the butterfly can have a drink. As I expected it to, the butterfly rests on the flower and has a drink. I giggle at the reward of my labor and observe the details of the butterfly up close, but then I hear someone singing. My eyes look forward and I see that just ahead is a girl with a guitar, singing to herself. I walk up closer to her slowly before stopping and putting the flower with the butterfly on my shoulder. This lady sings her song out loud.

"... I wouldn't know how to hold up myself, without you. You know that you are part of my life now. And I can't lose you, or my life would come crumbling down. You know how much you mean to me, why chance it all? Any longer now, and I don't know what I would do without you. Any longer now, I wouldn't know how to hold up myself without you. Yes, I need you and now you know it. Why would you think of giving up on me?"

The girl strums her final note and I clap at the end of her performance and say "Wow! That song is very pretty, but why does it sound so sad?" Right when she turns her head to me, I study her appearance. She's got brown, curled hair with tan skin and stunning blue eyes.

The butterfly comes from my shoulder to the girl and takes a rest on her shoulder, beating it's wings slowly. I smile at the girl and say "I think she likes you." Turning my attention back to the girl I ask her "Did you make that song yourself?"

"Did you write that song yourself?" Erika smiled at the boy. The butterfly landed on her shoulder and decided to take a rest on her. Erika didn't mind but she felt embarassed about someone hearing her song.

"Um... yea I wrote it. It is kind of a sad song because I wrote it after my dad left my mom, my brother, and I. It was kind of about him knowing that I needed him, but him trying to chance it all. But, ummm....I am glad you liked it." Erika stood up slowly and the butterfly took off and sat at the boy's shoulder instead. "By the way, my name is Erika. What's yours?"

Erika bent down and set her guitar down against the tree. She loved playing it and thought it to be a stress reliever. But, she knew nother would take away the stree for more than an hour because of her mother. She tried to tune her out but she was getting louder. Still yelling at James for going out.

"I am sorry about my mother yelling, but once she gets on one of her rampages, she will not stop."

The girl gave me a smile and said "Um... yea I wrote it. It is kind of a sad song because I wrote it after my dad left my mom, my brother, and I. It was kind of about him knowing that I needed him, but him trying to chance it all. But, ummm....I am glad you liked it."The girl stood up slowly, and the butterfly flew back to my shoulder, where the passion flower is. "By the way, my name is Erika. What's yours?" She identifies herself to me.

Erika bends down and puts her instrument down against the tree. Just before I get a chance to make a response, I hear some lady yelling. "I am sorry about my mother yelling, but once she gets on one of her rampages, she will not stop."

I tilt my head to the side and look at her, just a bit puzzled. I turn my head back upright and speak my mind with a smile"Why are you apologizing for something you're not responsible for?" I assess what I said and consider taking it back. People always say that I'm oblivious and that's why I'm so happy, but I still try to think logically.

My attention turns back to her first question and I respond with "Oh! My name is Karner. Karner Blue. Nice to meet ya!" After looking at her, I look at her guitar which strikes me as intriguing since I've never seen any guitar like it. "What's wrong with your guitar? It has no amplifiers or wires in it at all, and it looks hollow. Actually, it looks like it's not powered at all." The only guitars I've seen where ones we make for the capitol; quite flat and it requires lots of wires connected to each other as well as an amplifier to make sound. My attention turns back to the girl and I ask her another question with the same bright smile"How old are you?"

"I am apologizing because I think I might might have caused it." Erika looks around to the house and stares at it like it was going to disappear. But, only more yelling comes from the open windows. Erika sighs at the thought of her mother not yelling at anybody or anything for one day.

"I am 16 years old, by the way. And I made my guitar from some wood my dad used to have. That is how I made the song. Him and I used to play together. That is how we bonded and I still like to play sometimes." Erika looked down and felt herself start to cry. She had to be perfect, even in the presence of a boy who knew nothing about her. She sucked in her tears and smiled.

She bent down and picked up her guitar. Sure, it looked old and it didn't look fancy, but it was the one her dad helped make for her. She wasn't going to let it just sit there without being noticed. "You know, my dad helped me build this one. His is inside hiding under my bed from my mom. Everything that my dad left behind she threw away, but the guitar was safetly hidden from her by me." Erika looked down at the hand-made guitar. "Do you want to hold it?" Erika held out her guitar to Karner who looked like he wouldn't drop it.

When Erika informed me that her instrument was made by hand my eyes lit up and widened. To find someone who could carve in this district is quite rare since most of the wood work is in District 7. Even more so, to find someone with such talent as to create an acoustic guitar that sounds similar to the guitars we make here. This lady must be really talented if she made this.

When she also includes the story of her father, my heart becomes touched a bit. "Wow! That's amazing!" I refer to both her anecdote and the guitar. She offers me a chance to hold the instrument but I politely decline "No. I can't hold something that's important to someone. Thanks though."

I tilt my head again to the side and contemplate an offer, eventually deciding. Smiling I say "Come, follow me please! And bring your guitar too, I think they'll like it." I motion her to follow me. "You look sad, so I'm going to take you to the place I go to make me feel happy." I actually mean a butterfly garden that I made by myself. Well, that's sort of a lie since most of the garden grew naturally. Surprisingly, it's rather close to this area.

Just before being on the outskirts of District 3, there is a field of dainty and glorious flowers, but the real attraction is the butterflies that visit. I can recall the first time I stepped on that field. That day was rather depressing since my sister's friend got chosen to be a tribute, so I ran away into the forest. Soon enough, I got to a field of these majestic insects, so liberated and free. I've never seen such beauty in life; all the colors and the way they moved is inspiring. Just one is pretty on it's own, but the multitude of butterflies is almost difficult to comprehend.

"I think you'll like it. And I think they'll like you! But you have to promise not to tell anyone about it." I inform her, suspending the secret. After a little while along the path I turn towards a few select trees and walk past them. I turn around because I realize that I haven't actually turned back to check on her. "Still there?" I ask inspecting the area behind me.
