A/N: This was A LONG time coming! The 60th Hunger Games are finally under way. This was the first submit your tribute contest started by myself (Ace-Of-Spades) on the Scholastic Hunger Games page. I took a break from it because everything I wrote seemed to fall apart and die but I'm back!

Okay if that didn't make any sense I don't blame you :)

Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN THE HUNGER GAMES!

A Prologue: The World Keeps Spining

A wise man once told me life makes its own decisions,

That the universe alone posses free will,

That the rest of us are as insignificant as a child's play toy,

The music will play on,

The dances will continue,

Because the earth keeps spining round,

Once we are gone.
