The day before the Reaping is probably the Hardest of the year. The forty fifth annual Hunger games tribute's get chosen tomorrow. This is an exciting time if you are in district 1, 2 and maybe 3 but for most Districts' it's a time of fear, anxiety and hope. Hope, that you can survive another year without being chosen as one of district 4's tributes.

Jason sat at the table with his three brothers and sister and his mother and step father. The entire Maltar family where at the table. Two of Jason's brother's are twins, named Isaac and Daniel, they are only seven so they do not have to worry about being chosen, that is not the case, however, for Ronald and Emma who are also twins. They are seventeen so this will be their second last time putting their names in. Jason is 14 and has put his name in twice; he is a shy quiet boy who has few friends. Jason is Tall, Fairly Muscular and has dark brown eyes. Jason only has one true friend, Alyss, the girl he has loved since the age of seven. She is also tall and has long Brown hair and Blue eyes.

"Jason eat up, you haven't ate anything all day" said Shara, Jason's mother. "Your father has caught quite a treat; he caught a salmon, probably the last one in season!" Jason sat there; his stomach was already churning of the thought of being a tribute.

2 Hours later:

"Welcome, boys and girls to the 45th Annual Hunger Games, as you know my name is Donnie Grupet and in a few minutes I will be choosing one young courageous man and woman to represent district 4. I have a feeling that this will be the year that district four wins! Now before I choose the two tributes there is a short video bought to you all the way from the Capitol! Isn't that nice" The video was a blur to Jason, he could not even look up, he was scared. "And may the odds be ever in your favour". The video finished, there was total silence in the courtyard. "This is it" thought Jason "here it comes"

"As usual, ladies first" said Donnie reaching into the large bowl with over 300 little sheets with names on them. "Emma Maltar" Jason could not speak, his sister is now in the Hunger Games. "NOO" screamed Ronald, breaking down completely at the sight of his twin sister walking up to the large stage. "Come on sweaty don't be shy" Said Donnie. Emma was rushed up the stage by the Peace keepers. "Congratulations, Emma Maltar for being District 4's female tribute" "and now it is time to choose the male tribute" "Jason Maltar".
