Words beneath the Silence

Chapter 1

I didn't know what was coming when I walked into this meeting. Once in a while all the Avox have to go to the training center basement for a 'Discussion' with the head manger of the training center. I wouldn't call it a discussion. The capital people talk and the Avox try to talk back but are only stop by the empty, longing sensation inside there mouths. They don't understand how it feels and they wouldn't, all they do is stare at us like were freaks and some of the higher up's even laugh. If they were in our situation I don't think they'd be laughing anymore.

The manger approached the middle of the room large high heels clanking behind her, she is the only one who talks to us and she isn't the most pleasant person in all of Panem. Instead of facing the Avox gathering in a small crowd behind her she faced the opposite wall and her back turned towards us. Its not surprising coming from her. Of course the Avox rank is such a disgrace we don't even deserve her eye contact. It makes me sick, it's like they forgot that were still human.

"One of you has just been bought" Said the head of the training center with the usual hollowness in her voice. None of us learned her name as long as we've been here most of the time she stays concealed in her room. She wants nothing to do with the Avox she only talk to us when she has to. The only time she does enjoy being with the Avox is when she whipping the flesh off our backs or beating us down to our breaking point. She enjoys watching us suffer like a power hungry monster with a thirst for pain and blood. That's why it would give me great pleasure to see her blow up in a mine field.

I haven't really been paying attention until a replay her voice back in my head 'she just said one of u has been bought'! I've heard of wealthy Capital families buying an Avox as a servant, but I didn't think they got them from the training center. This could also mean my chance out of here. Maybe a Capital family would treat us better. Unlike here when the only place we get sleep is the basement floor all of us in one cramped small room that is uncomfortably quiet unless someone screaming in there sleep from pain. With no voice you can't tell someone you need help all loud as u try and scream no one hears. Even when you're trying to save your friend from dying of blood loss no one comes. They feed us like stray dogs throwing us the leftover food from the people who stay here. We eat it but with the constant reminder that we will never experience the beautiful sensation of taste again. We eat but still have a hallow feeling inside. Maybe not all the capital people are this bad. Maybe the people who bought one of us might treat us like an actual human being for a change.

"We don't usually give away training center Avox but the offer was too high to refuse. Since we could only pick one of you to sell were going to do something that must be a little familiar to you all" The head manager walked over to a large idem covered by a white dusty sheet. She harshly pulled of the sheet to revile a reaping ball. Reaping ball. Those two words had so many haunting memories in them... I closed my eyes tight to stop myself from thinking of that day when I was only twelve I tossed the memories aside and tried to forget just so I didn't have to relive that whole day again. I tried too fill my head of good things that could happen if I was picked I anxiously waited as the women's hard searched around in the reaping ball That one slip of paper with my name on it was all I needed for a small chance of escape.

'Well this is ironic' I thought to myself 'the fear of being pick when we were children has alternated into excitement of being able to get away'. The women pulled a name out.

"Cecslie Seeder" she said we all turn and look at Cecslie the white haired dyeing old Avox lying on a stretcher. She shifted on her stretcher and tried to get up and walk to where the Head manager was standing. She made it three steps but her weak knees buckled from under her and she crashed on the concert. I quickly ran over to her knowing that I would get punished for it later. I lifted the old women in my arms, her large Avox uniform almost sliding off her, and brought her to the manager.

Everything was quiet as a felt the old women shift in my arms. I saw her free arm rise extremely close to my face and she held out her hand and pointed at me. At first I didn't understand what she was doing and had to process it but my eyes went wide and I knew what it meant she wanted me to take her place. I was stunned at first I was afraid that she would get punished for deifying the head manager and in her state it might kill her.

The manager had a foreign look on her face one I haven't see in her before I started to get worried but I was excited at the same time it felt like centuries before the manger finally responded to the gesture "Alright Darius looks like you've been volunteered. I think it would be better for a more able Avox to survive with this family. We will give you new uniforms and a car will fetch to take you to there residents." She took at pair of keys out of her pocket and grabbed my ankle she rolled up my pants a bit and unlocked the tracking bracelet around my ankle and she casually turned to walk up stairs. She stopped suddenly "Good bye Darius, you will not be missed."

She finished with a smirk at the corner of her mouth and walked off. All the Avox just stood in there spots looking at me. The look on there faces were confused of what just happened and I have to admit I was confused myself. There trance was broken when a redhead Avox girl, along with another Avox brought over Cecslie's stretcher. I gently place the old Avox on the stretcher grabbed her hand and looked her straight in the eyes and nodded as a 'Thank you' towards her she understood completely and pulled her thin lips into a smile. I bent down and kissed the old women's forehead and bowed as a sign of respect towards her.

The red head Avox girl carried Cecslie away and motioned for me to go upstairs. I embraced the red haired girl who I was partnered up with most of the time. After I let go she just look at me strange, and then let out a kind smile. She kissed my on the cheek and nodded as a silent good luck and walked off. I waved goodbye too all the Avox and they all waved back. Some what I wished I could take them with me there where the only ones there for me even though we could speak to each other I knew they understood what I was going through. I would miss them like I miss the people back in distract 12 who I would probley never see again. I tried to forget those thoughts as I walked up the stairs. The way the manager said 'survive' stuck in my head. I wanted to get away from here for the short time I've been here, but I honestly didn't know what I was getting into. I wasn't sure if I could survive somewhere else if they were worse then they were here.

I opened the door from the training center basement. The light hit straight at my eyes I could tell it was early morning. My eyes adjusted and went to the manager office. Before I could knock I noticed there where three new uniform stacked on the table in front of me. With a golden envelop on top. I could tell the manager didn't want to be disturbed. I carefully opened the envelop where there was a small note.

It read:

Darius,

You will be going to serve the elderly Hevensbee's. You may know them as the new head game makers parents.

A driver has already been instructed to drive you to there mansion.

When you get there I have been told you will be given specific instructions that you must follow.

If you greatly fail the family you will be harshly punished to the families' wishes.

This house will be different then what you experienced here the here so be prepared for change

Sincerely

M.C

I swallowed hard reading the third to last line. I wasn't sure if that was a positive statement or not. I was convincing myself that it was going to be better but there was an unsure feeling hiding inside me. I'm not sure what to expect from this family. I read the note over and over again just to process it. I jumped when a firm hand grabbed my shoulder.

I turned to see a white haired with a Caterpillar mustache. "Are you the Avox boy that's needs to be transferred"? I panicked someone was talking to me he could get us both into huge trouble I tried to act calm. I nodded and put my finger over my mouth that motioned for him to be quiet; he wasn't supposed to be talking to an Avox. "Relax son" the man casually chucked "I'm a transfer driver in allowed to talk to anyone I please". I sighed in relief but still put my guard up in case and gave the man the letter. "Ya, you're the criminal".

I lost all liking for the man with that name. He didn't know what I did to end up this way. He wouldn't understand how much suffering I had to go through. It's like to people like him I'm just a piece of shit. He motioned for me to follow him in the rusty car. He opened the door for me and I stepped in. The car was small my head practically touched the roof. I relaxed, readying myself to leave this behind me. As I looked out the window I prayed that maybe moving from here things would get better. That maybe these people were different. Who knows maybe more luck will fall into my disgraceful hands.

Okay so that chapter one I'm wring on chapter two. There is going to be another main character but don't brother looking her up because she doesn't existed in the hunger games series I just made her up okay review.

THANK YA
