Beginning Trials

By: Capitol Press

Prologue

Fear. That's what I, Sky Traversedale felt as I went up to the reaping stage. Missy Andrews had just announced that I would have to attend the first annual Hunger Games. The next thing that happened took all of my energy not to burst into tears. Missy reached into the girl's reaping ball and pulled out the name I feared would be called the most. Lark Havensteen. All of her friends were right beside her as she was called up. The crying and wailing was unbearable. Next Missy said the Hunger Games slogan.

"Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor!"

Chapter 1

We where whisked away that moment. We didn't even get a chance to say goodbye to our families. Because this is the first Hunger Games, we where not allowed goodbyes. It is rumored that in the years to come, the future tributes will be able to say goodbye. But for now, we aren't going to because we are on such a tight schedule. It took about two days to get to the capitol. The whole time we were on the train, we weren't allowed to leave our rooms. All of our meals were brought to us. I didn't even catch a glimpse of Lark until we were led off of the train by several guards. Quickly after that, we were sent to the training center and our stylists took over.
