"I WILL ALWAYS BE AN OUTCAST"

It is just another day In District 10 the sun is about midway in the sky and everyone is out working with the animals. All except me, I walks sluggishly down a sand road kicking a small grey stone as I go. I keep my eyes focused on the path and stone not even glancing up to make sure I don't run into anyone, then again do I ever? I shake my head frustratedly since my parents had to send me to go get a new hammer. I take a small coin out of my black leather jacket's pocket and begin flipping as I continue walking. I pass a group of twelve year old children playing in the dirt. When they see me they squeal and run away but what else would they do when they see a big guy in a black leather jacket? I have gotten so use to this now everyone always moving away whenever I am near, but I don't care. I never want to talk to anyone but Phobia anyway so them avoiding me just helps my cause.
I finally reach the District square after what feels like hours of walking and hastily make my way to the tool shop. The store owner grins at the sound of the bell signaling that there is a customer but once he sees me it vanishes. I waste no time in buying the hammer and leaving the shop which I am sure the store owner is grateful about. I stop in my tracks as a finch lands in front of me and I look from it to the hammer. I could kill it right now, I think to myself but I quickly revolt the thought. If anyone saw me I would be in a decent amount of trouble and I don't feel like being whipped today so I begin my walk back home scaring the finch into the sky as I walk past.
