A/N: So this is a Hunger Games story, my first actually. It's basically about what would have happened if the Districts were convinced of Katniss and Peeta's love, so the Quarter Quell is different. Oh, it's Katniss' POV.

Chapter 1

"This year, for the third Quarter Quell, the tributes will be reaped from a pool of the most recent Victor's friends and family. Anyone of any age can be reaped, and anyone can volunteer," Snow announced. My lip trembles and I begin to cry. Prim tries to comfort me, but it doesn't work. I know that either she or Gale will be reaped.

"So, this Reaping is very special," Effie Trinket chirps. I am sitting next to Peeta, who looks as nervous as I am. I am fiddling with the hem of my dress that I'm forced to wear for the Reapings.

She continues, "So, first for Katniss' friends/family." She fished around in the bowl, and I held my breath. "Primrose Everdeen," she calls. I feel tears brimming and I know that I am about to begin crying.

Prim makes her way to the stage, her braids hanging lifeless at her side. I wish I could volunteer, but I can't. Prim looks terrified as she walks up to the stage. She looks to me, fear clouding her eyes. I give her a sympathetic glance, but that's all I can do.

Before I know it, Effie is calling Peeta's friends/family, "Madge Undersee!" Peeta looks hurt. I know who Madge Undersee is; everybody does. I also know that Madge is Peeta's best friend. This is just cruel. My little sister and his best friend being forced to fight to the death in some Capitol arena, for the enjoyment of people; it makes me sick. The worst part is that both Madge and Prim would never kill, under any circumstance.

The next thing I know, Gale is volunteering for Madge. Why would he do that? He knows Madge; of course, we sell strawberries to her and her father. But why would he volunteer for her? But there's Gale, walking to the stage. This is insane. Now, I have to choose between Gale and Prim. My best friend or my little sister?

A/N: So is this good? Should I continue or not? Please review, follow, and favorite!
