I watch as President Snow and the Gamemakers bustle around the room. I can't hear everything they're saying, but from the bits and pieces I've caught I can tell the arena for this year's Hunger Games is pretty complex. They've been working on it since the end of last year's Games, or so it seems.
A woman catches me staring, and I quickly get back to my dusting. In my hurriedness, my elbow hits a cup sitting on the counter, spilling its content all over a keyboard. The man closest to it jumps up and begins yelling at me. I go to explain, then realize I can't speak.
The President looks in the direction of the commotion, and begins walking towards me, his freshly polished shoes squeaking on the tile floor. "What's all this about, Simon?"
The man who was yelling at me, Simon I now know, turns to the President and immediately apologizes. "Mr. President, Sir, I'm so sorry. This stupid Avox just ruined my keyboard, that's all. Sorry for the disturbance."
President Snow looked from me to the man, and back again. "Run along, young lady. We have no time for such trivial things. Back to your chores."
I can tell by the angry look on Simon's face that he thinks I should have been punished for my mistake. Honestly, any other day I probably would have been. I guess I have the Games to thank for the lack of one today. As I head out to finish my chores, I realize that's the only good thing to ever come from them.
Welcome to the 54th Hunger Games! Please include as much detail and information in the form as possible. And please, be creative! I don't want any John Smiths in this story. And this is my first time hosting a SYOT, so bear with me and let me know how I'm doing so I can improve as I go. Thanks ahead of time to anyone who participates. Let the Games begin, and may the odds be ever in your favor!
