The 100th annual hunger games!

Katniss's POV (only for now)

We stood behind the stage, Peeta and I have been mentoring for a little while now and so far we have had no new victors. For 26 years we watched tributes die and it is quite upsetting, I and Peeta got married after the 75th hunger game and now we have two kids, our daughter Charlotte Mellark, who is 25 today which is a relief to me since she can't be reaped but our son Daniel Mellark is 17 so he can be reaped. Today is the reaping if you haven't already guessed and I am as nervous as ever for our boy. Peeta whisper in my ear that we better get ready because we were about to be called onto stage, we were announce by Effie who is determined to keep her youth. We walked on stage and sat down in the two chairs that we were provided with, the mayor came on, said the history of panem, we watched the video that I have seen plenty of times and then it went to the anthem. Finally Effie went to the bowls and said ladies first like she had every year before this. She stuck her hand in the bowl and pulled it out.

"Serene Sarlin."

I watched as she walked up her with no emotion in her face, as she walked up I got a good look at her: her hair was blonde which was rare in the seam and her eyes were grey. Then it hit me, she was the daughter of Rosaline Sarlin, Rosaline was called when Clove and Cato had their reaping years ago but Clove took her place. Serene was living in district 2 since her mother had died and the peace keepers ruled she shouldn't be in district 2, she was 13 when she was sent here and now she is 17. I was busy in thought when Effie walked over to the boys bowl and pulled out a name.

"Daniel Mellark."

My heart dropped, my little boy was going into the hunger games. This was exactly the reason I didn't want to have kids. Peeta whispered in my ear that everything would be alright and we watched as they shook hands and were sent into the justice building. I headed in with Peeta and Effie and we sat in a room while we waited for Daniel and Serene to come back, it was two hours before they had actually finished. I assumed Daniel's friends had come to visit him along with his sister but I don't know who went to see Serene. We headed out for the train shortly after that. When we got on the train I noticed Serene looked very angry, I tried to ask her what was wrong but she snapped at me and said.

"I am angry at you, girl on fire."

She spun around and headed to her room. I was kind of shocked and I could hear Peeta trying to lighten the mood with Daniel. We all went into the dining room except for Serene and we sat down. We were sitting there talking when I heard a familiar voice, we all looked at the door and it was haymitch. He smirked and said

"Happy 4th quarter quell!"

The way he said it made everyone laugh except Effie, he was trying to mimic Effie's capitol voice. He joined us at the table and we all continued to talk, we were talking when I said

"Haymitch, why is Serene angry at me?"

Haymitch sighed and I knew this was going to be a long explanation; his hair was grey now since he was pretty old and he had the smell of alcohol on him.

"You killed her father Katniss."

We were all confused; I looked at Peeta before saying.

"But she's 17, who was her father?"

He looked at everyone before saying

"Cato."

This made me even more confused; if Cato was truly her father then she would be 25.

"But she's 17, how can Cato be her father?"

He shrugged

"Her mother had made some sort of deal with the capitol, they brought Cato back to life for a few years and they had a little girl before he died again. She was told that you had killed him."

I did not even believe the story.

"And she believes it?"

He nodded

"Yes, because she has the proof. Her mother showed her the clip from the hunger games that you guys were in and she was told that it some sort of treatment."

I sat there in disbelief; everyone else was talking while I sat there not really sure what to do. Was she going to hate me forever?
