A/N:

Im back you guys. So I just started my ballet classes and I am so happy :) that and a very amazing musical titled Billy Elliot have inspired this story. Also my love for The Hunger Games have also sparked the birth of this story. I own nothing of these things but the changing, modification, and my own plot points. I hope you all enjoy.

My name is Gale Hawthorne I live in District twelve with my father, little brothers and baby sister. I have two best friends Peeta Mellark, the baker's son, and Katniss Everdeen, the daughter of the town's physician. My father is a miner, as are all the other men in our district, he spends most of his days underground in the coal mine while I spend mine with my friends in school and in the woods. My mother died giving birth to my little sister Posy (A/N: correct me on any of his siblings names I don't have the book near me and cannot remember off the top of my head)

My father was very torn up about everything but we had to pull though because of what was going on in our district. Our miners were striking. There was too much for them to handle and the fact of a mine explosion, around the time of my mother's death, that killed a lot of our men along with Katniss' father. I still remember that week it was awful even if my father had come out alive I had lost my mother and another father figure in my life, I rememeber crying with Katniss in my arms for hours. The Capitol, our government I should call it, is forcing us deeper into the ground which isn't safe and our men don't want to put their lives on the line anymore they all decided it was striking time.

Earlier I said I spent my days in the woods doing what? My father thinks I am hunting but I cannot bear to tell him he is wrong he would kill me if he ever found out. Katniss adnd Peeta are the only ones who know.

You see I don't want to follow the men in the seam down into the mines I want to dance.
