Author's Note – YES, THIS IS GOING TO BE A STORY ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE KATNISS PEETA AND GALE, BUT DON'T HATEME, HATE THE AWESOMENESS OF THE STORY.
DISCLAIMER- I DON'T OWN ANYTHING, ONLY FOXEN (ME), AUTUMN, AND ABBY.
THE REAPING
I was in the woods; my katanas were in my hands. I had spotted a deer, but I knew how to sneak into my father's sessions with Goodwin. I slowly tiptoed over to the deer, making sure I'm not stepping on any stacks, that'll break I mean. I got close enough to it to pet it, but no I wanted to feed my family, so I draw back the sword, and strike.
"You're not going to get him through the gate, you know."
Damn! I stand um, my stomach is growling with hunger, being in the twelfth district, food is scarce, but if you win the hunger games, you win it all, money, fame, a good house to live in, and respect that you lived throughout the horror.
I turn to the person who scared the game I was going to kill for my family, I knew that face, it was a friend, but also a real bitch.
"Damn, blister, why the hell would you do that?" I ask frustrated with the man who's too old to be in the game, for he's 21 years old. If he were 18 like I was, then that would be a whole other story.
"I just said the obvious, why not get a baby, it would be more reasonable to explain how you got it," He stated, making me wanting to really stab him with one of my swords. "Anyway, I got this!" He was holding a piece of bread, a roll, which is small, but it was bread!
"You- how- what the hell Blister, how the heck did you get this?" I asked, shaking, and needed food.
"I traded something I cared about the most in my house, and I got twelve loaves and twenty-four rolls, cool huh?!" He asked excitedly, and I nod, then sadness swept over me.
"You traded that deck your dad gave you?" Tears formed, and he nodded, "You idiot! You know we're not supposed to have dueling cards in here, and you say you traded what left humanity we have left? That makes you the one that's selfish!" I shout, knowing nobody's going to hear me, and I throw down my katanas, and I run home, tears hating airborne from my eyes to the ground. 'Father, I'm never going to betray you and trade your deck for anything. I would need another deck for this one if I do.'
I reach the gate, and I hide behind a tree, hearing footsteps, I check to see if it was the Peacekeepers, it wasn't it was Luna and Leo; they're part of my family now, since their parents died in a mining explosion. My father died in the games.
I climb out of the gate, and jump in front of them, my eyes had a small amount of tears, but it was alright.
"Autumn," Leo exclaimed, running up to give me a hug. Luna kept silent; she was always silent now, since the incident.
"Luna, I'm still sorry, but-"
"You're going into the mine if you're chosen, then you may get killed, another tragedy, Leo will forgive Goodwin, I won't, I can't!" Luna squeaked, and hugged me tighter, she was right, if I go into the mine if I'm not chosen, I'll be in a greater risk of dying. I need to be chosen!
"Luna, whatever happens, don't let your guard down. If I'm in the games this year, I'm going to win, just for you!" I say, and the bell sounded, notifying the reaping was about to star, once everyone was in the center.
"We should go, unless if we want to make everyone else late!" Leo said, smiling, and it made me smile, but I'm already dead on the inside.
We walk and walk, and I see a pin, it showed a beautiful tiger lily, that was the district's symbol. 'Luna'll enjoy this!' I thought.
"I want the pin, how much is it for?" I ask the lady.
"Oh! It's free today, taking it, it's yours!" she says, and I accept her gratitude. I take the pin, and I go home to find it filled with rushing children.
"Autumn, go upstairs and get ready!" Martha yelled, and I nod, and I went upstairs, it was my mother's old dress. She died in that mining accident Leo and Luna's parents died in. I take a quick shower, and then quickly dry myself, combing my hair, and I get the dress on.
I run downstairs, Martha was still down there. "Martha, we better hurry up, or we'll be late!" I shout rushing out the door, holding the pin in my hand, and I run into Leo and Luna on my way.
"Luna, Leo, wait up!" I shout, and I kneel down to Luna. "I want you to have this Luna, so you won't ever forget, even if you feel too much pain inside to want to remember, never forget!" I say, quickly putting the pin on her dress, and we rush to the center of our district.
As we get to the table, and I see the Peacekeepers getting the crowd in order, "finger please!" the man said, grabbing my hand, and drawing the blood.
AUTUMN LASTISKOO: AGE – 18 GENDER – FEMALE
"Thank you! Hope you have fun in the mines!" The man said, and I get rushed over to my spot.
Leo and Luna were done next, and they get separated, and I worry. 'Will they be okay?' 'Do they need my help?' and many more questions filled my mind, I wanted them to be safe.
A couple of minute passed, and the escort comes up on stage, she claimed he name to be Shimmering Sky (what an obscured name). "Hello, people of District 12, I welcome you guys to the 174th huger games!" She explained what seemed like the first time thing for three year-olds, but I knew better, and I needed to make sure I didn't get forced into the mines, for Leo and Luna's fate.
"Shall we get started?" Shimmering announced, and she went over the female's bowl, and pulled a paper, and she quickly walked back over to the mic, for I swear she's wearing 10 inch heels. "Our female tribute will be…" She said, unfolding the paper, I felt the world pushing twelve tons of weight onto my back, I wanted to be chosen.
I know it seems selfish for wanting to win the games, but I wanted to do this for Leo and Luna, mostly Luna. I wanted to do this so they don't feel anger, disgust, fear, or anything in those categories, I really wanted to do this to keep them safe, well here's the answer to all of our questions. Shimmering unfolded the paper, and smiled.
"Luna Lastiskoo!" She announced, I felt numb, I felt sick, I wanted to cry. Luna was chosen, but then I fel t this urge to the middle of the isle. I run and run to the center of the Panem, Peacekeepers are trying to shove me back into the isle, but I was smaller, and quicker, and I went to the middle.
"I volunteer!" I shout, I feel my face go pale. 'What have I done?!' I think, as I look behind me, and see Luna with tears in her eyes, and a small smile on her face. The Peacekeepers shoved me up to the stage, and I'm standing there, feeling sick as an alcoholic, I wanted to run, but I couldn't. I needed to do this for Luna; I needed to do this for my sister.
"What's your name, sweetheart?" Shimmering asked me, I hated to be called sweetheart, but I didn't need to start a fight now, so I take a deep breath, and look to the crowd.
"I'm Autumn Lastiskoo," I squeak, and Shimmering, smiles some more, and looks to the crowd.
"Ah! So you're sisters?" She asks me, and I nod, on the verge of tears. "Well, onto the male tribute!" Shimmering announces, walking over to the male tribute names, and she pulled out a name, "Crow Hogan!"
'Crow Hogan, that name seems familiar. Wait! He's the one that gave me that burnt chicken years ago, I was in need of food, and my father was still alive, my mother was already killed in the mining accident.' I think, then I look at him, he had hair of a broom, and he looked like a gang member, he didn't dress nicely, but that didn't matter right now. I listen to the queue to be put in the train, so I can say my final good-bye to Leo and Luna.
"Shall we thank these touch children, for they might return alive!" Shimmering announced, and I tensed up, why did she have to say that?!
We were then shoved to the train cart, and the first ones to come to my room were Leo and Luna. Luna ran up to me in tears.
"Autumn, why did you have to do that," She squeaked, and smile.
"I want to keep you safe!" I simply say, and hug her.
"Then here, take this!" Luna said, taking her pin off and putting in into my hands.
"Luna!"
"And, we want you to have these, so you don't forget that we're watching and waiting for your return home!" Leo said, handing me his POWERTOOL DRAGON and his LIFESTREAM DRAGON. Luna nodded, getting out her extra deck, and she handed me her ANCIENT FAIRY DRAGON.
"I hope you win," Leo said, a sad frown came to his face, and he hugged me. The Peacekeepers came in, they took the twins out of the room, and then Martha and Blister came in.
"Martha!" I say, running up to her and hug her, tears finally fall down my face.
"I'll miss you, but don't forget, you have to win for those twins, you promised them!" She explained, and I nod, then she walked out, and Blister was the last one in the room.
"I don't know what to say, but good luck, my little season," He said, and kissed me on my lips. "I love you, but when we get back, I want you to marry me, do you agree?"
"Yes!" I tell him, and we hug, but then the Peacekeepers take him out too, and I'm shoved into the train cart.
Me-Well... I didn't plan to make it this long.
Autumn-Why the hell did you even make the Hunger Games fanfiction, even when Shimmering-Sky started her's not that long ago?
Me- You know me! I do it out of ideas people give me.
