DISTRICT 1 TRIBUTES

SAMANTHA AMETHYST POV

The 63rd hunger games was here and boy was I ready. At the age of 4 I had learned how to hold a knife and now I am 16 I am ready to say those two words quick enough. I had been practicing at since I could talk to say "I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE". I don't care who I'm against I knew I was going to win. Of course I was. Have you seen me? I'm so hot a male sponsor would give me anything with a wink of an eye and an air kiss. I drove my sister to insanity last night while I was brushing my hair. She doesn't understand, I have to brush my hair exactly 150 times for it to be perfect.

"How are you going to brush your hair in the games" my sister Sapphire asks

"I'll go to the cornucopia" I say

"Oh yes I'm sure every cornucopia in the games includes a hair brush and straighter"

"Oh shut up" I say. We go to the town centre and we watch some of our districts greatest moments.

"Let's hope that this year we will do as good as we did two years ago" Said Carina Honeytrunk are districts escort "Now as usual ladies first"

She smiled and walked over to the female reaping bowl. She teases us by moving her hand around the bowl many times before she finally picks out a name and crosses back to the microphone.

"Heart Mary" she announces

"I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE" I scream at the top of my voice. I had no idea who this Heart Mary girl was and it looks like I never will because she didn't even have time to step out into the crowd before my hand shout up.

I walked out of the crowd to get to the stage while giving girls a look that said "MOVE OUT OF THE WAY BITCHES"

I hopped on to the stage my long brown hair glistening in the sun.

"Hello district 1 my name is Samantha but you can call me the 63rd hunger games victor" I shout into the microphone

I was going to win this. I would return home a champion and bring pride to my district and family...and get showered in riches

GERSHWIN PAUL ANDERSON POV

I'm 18 years old. That means today is my last chance to volunteer for the games. I was sure that today would be the day that I will be in the games and in a couple of weeks I would return here as victor.

My brother Marcus bounces up to me

"So are you going to volunteer" he asks me

"Yes" I say trying to fix my hair. Us district 1 boys have to look are best for reapings

"Promise you'll come back"

I freeze at the question then smirk "Of course I'm coming back. Since when did you start doubting me"

"Well a district 1 tribute didn't win last year" he says

"Yeah but a district 1 tribute will win this year" I reply

"Your right. The district 1 females look pretty vicious this year" I laugh and wrestle with him

"I was talking about me" I laugh

We head off to the town centre and I watch as my brother stands at the front row and I go to the back with my best friend Shamrock

I don't even bother to watch the first part of the reaping so I distract myself by kicking a rock and imagining the deaths I will cause and the fame I will gain

"Are you not going to watch the female reapings" Shamrock asks me

"What's the point. No matter who she is she'll be dead soon" I say with an evil grin on my face

I don't really watch it but I hear the same thing that I hear every year. The name being read, the shout of I volunteer

"Hello district 1 my name is Samantha but you can call me the 63rd hunger games victor" I hear the girl shout

I stifle a laugh "In your dreams" I say to myself

"And now for the glamorous males of district 1" says our escort this is when I look up

She does the usual where she puts her hand in the bowl and pulls a name out and teases us by pretending she can't take off the tape. When she finally takes it off and reads the name

"Joshua marid..."

"I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE" I yell before she finishes reading the name

I walk onto the stage and grab the microphone

"Hello my name is Gershwin Anderson. District 1 tribute, career and future victor" I say. Shamrock laughs

I get a look at the female. She's hot...that doesn't mean I won't kill her in the most entertaining way possible when it's necessary

"ARE TRIBUTES GERSHWIN ANDERSON AND SAMANTHA AMETHYST" screams Carina
