Hey I had to write this down! I thought I want to change the 74th hunger games but I don't want to change the main plot so I thought hey I know lets change 1 of the districts tributes and this is the story that unfolded! It's kind of like a diary so it's very informal chatty. Let me know if you like that!

I think that anyone's parents who want them to go into the hunger games kids were probably, 14 no 13 or more. My parents however, want me to go in and be the first 12 year old victor. Great. Just great.
Then again this is district 2, there are fights almost every year over who gets to volunteer and no 12 year old ever makes it up there before some 18 year old or well any of the over confident snotty over muscled toddlers, pushes them out the way. In 2 no 12 year old has even got to the stage. Like never- we get volunteered for it's not because they feel sorry for you anyone who isn't blind knows that.
This may not be making sense but you have to remember, in 2 the 12 year olds are at the back they use mirrors and camera tricks to make us look like were at the front only the approved are at the actually in the front. This is technically cheating- but when you're the "Capitol's lap dogs" blah blah blah… But then again like I've said before this is district 2!
Although according to my friend it's the same in the outliers (districts 9-12), but then again I don't know? We have certain privileges we don't have trains or buses, but we do have cars- well 4x4s as our "roads" are only dirt tracks. Although we have roads so that makes us lucky as I'm constantly being reminded.
Grabbing my satchel and racing down the stairs is something I do every day. Then of course I go to train. The closer your house is to the Training Centre of Brilliance (or just the Centre) the more expensive your house is. So the posh houses are on Glory lane by the Centre. Then the next big houses are 1 lane over in the centre of the business quad like they are in most of the districts. I live in the Victors Village, yep you weren't expecting that.
My dad won the 54th Annual Hunger Games! Big whoop. Victors Village is right behind the training centre so I have one of the shortest walks. The best at the Centre don't tend to live very far away. Well they're the only ones who can afford the tests. There the kids who district 2 are famous for. The well fed snotty brats. They're the ones who train so they volunteer so there who everyone else thinks someone from district 2's like.
Unfortunately these kids are about 15% of the population everyone else lives like in other districts on the brink of starvation. Well ok so they're not actually starving but they only get 1 meal a day. We don't actually have many people starving but I mean there not in the lap of luxury.
I'm no angel but I got spanked if I was rude and taught better. Well, from my mother at least I don't see my dad much. He goes to the Capitol a lot when I was little he said it was for business. Well now I know that he actually mentors for the hunger games but when I was little I had no desire to know about them so I just didn't ask anything further. I saw them and trained, back then I didn't know I was meant to want to go into them.
My dad wants me and him to both be victors. My mom was against the idea until she saw my training scores and thought "Hey this might be possible?" Probably, because after my 1st results when I was 7 she stopped complaining and my family is a quite one so any talking is serious.
So I head to practice its awards today but more on that later I meet up with the other kids who train with me from the Victors village. Well that's all the child population. Any victor who doesn't send their kid to train faces the wrath of the Capitol I heard this when I was 5. My father had sent me to my room when I heard my parents arguing my dad said he had no choice.
That was my first trip to the Capitol exactly 1 week later with my dad to have an interview on what my first few training sessions were like what were my strengths for my age what dad thought of my future. I had been being filmed in practice for this interview they showed my dad and I played cute I've always been able to act I earned lots of compliments for it. It turned out I was very quick and agile. As well as strong I struggled with throwing I could shoot an arrow pretty well.
Do remember this was for a 5 year old I was no superhero I could hit the target every time that's all and strength I could do the most push ups and pull myself up to the top of a bar from dangling. Agility and speed well we did race and you had to jump over things, climb up and under things, and sprint long and short distances.
Those were my favourites cause they let me go against the boys I won against the girls by miles most of the time I beat the boys but sometimes it was only by a fraction in fact I pretty sure it was favouritism to me that even how close it was I was always deemed the winner.
I go to the capitol for modelling shoots and stuff my parents aren't so sure they like me going but what can they do. I've been in a few shows and stuff I'm all over the capitols TV shows and early morning interviews. It's fun but I know what I'm really known for being a victors daughter it looks almost certain I'll volunteer some day they just don't know when? There are bets on it though. But back then we didn't have actual weapons we were too immature not to shoot each other.
I walk as I remember the other kids are taking bets on who wins "Cato will at least get top 5." I say everyone agrees his family could bribe his way to victory. Although no bribes are ever accepted at the Centre. Yeah right. I've heard that one before!
The rules for the quarter quell are different they are to be announced next chapter! Review, follow, favourite, ENJOY!
