Grace ceremony of 12

The ceremony of 12 this year was very diffrent. At first it was the same as every year. They went throught the names and each 12 got there assignment. Nothing special happened until they got to number 18. She was assigned to be a caretaker of the old but after she got it they moved on to 20 skipping 19. At first I though the announcer would go back and apologize for her mistake, but she kept on going until she was finished with the whole group of 12's except number 19. I could see the poor guy sweating in his seat. Once she was done with all the 12's she made apologized. She called the poor kid up and said he had not been assigned but had been selected. He would become the Receiver. They told him he had all the qualities that a receiver needs. Intelligence, integrity, wisdom, and corage. Then they told him that his training envoled physical pain. I didn't know what was happening. I had never seen this happen before and I felt bad for the kid Jonas. She ended with saying, "Jonas you will be trains to be our next receiver of memory. We thank you for your childhood." She left the stage leaving Jonas there alone and the crowd started whispering his name and then louder and louder.
