Day One
As the plate comes to a stop I search my surroundings. I notice there is a lake behind the cornucopia. To the back of me is a forest, a vast feild of wheat to my right and more forest to my left.
I then look to the other tributes, to my left is Clove from two and on my right is the girl from three. This should be easy, both girls are small. I search for Rue and spot her a couple of places to my left. She looks to me and I nod towards the forest, she nods in agreement.
"Welcome tributes to the seventy-fouth annual hunger games. May the odds be ever in your favour, let the games begin." The countdown starts so I scan the cornucopia. It is packed with weapons, weapons that I need.
Once the siren sounds I take off. I look to Rue who has ran into the forest, I smile before running faster. The fighting has started before I get there, two tributes are already dead as I pick up two swords and a couple of knives aswell as a bag.
As I run to the forest where I saw Rue run I get stopped by the boy from seven with an axe in his hand. I unsheath my sword before the fight starts. He is good with an axe but I end his life easily with a sweep of my sword across his throat.
The careers are fighting near the forest so I turn to the corn feild which looks like my only escape. I run until I cant run no more. I am breathing hard and exhaustion wins and I collapse to the floor. Darkness soon follows as I fall unconscious.
...
When I wake it is dark, the moon is shining and the starts twinkle above me. It reminds me of home and I smile. That soon drops when I remember where I am. I sit up, check through the bag I got which contains a bottle full of water, a bag of fruite, some jerky, matches and night vision glasses.
I eat jerky along with some wheat then drink some water. I put on the glasses before flatteing down the wheat to make a little clearing. After that I check my weapons, I have three knives and two swords. I find the one with blood on it and just looking at it makes me throw up the food I just ate.
As I chuck the weapon aside the amthem plays. I look into the sky and see the faces of the dead show. First shows the girl from three, the boy from four and the boy from five. Both from six and seven, the boy from eight and both from nine and the girl from ten. Wow, eleven deaths already. Thirteen left. My mind wonders to the boy I killed, what would his family be thinking? They will surely hate me.
I push all thoughts of the first day away and I suddenly feel tired again. I eat some wheat and drink some water before laying down. I will find out how to find water tommorow, but now I need sleep.
