Chapter One
This my first story so please read it. Also tell your FanFiction friends. I'm just saying it starts out a bit to much like The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins in the begin about the next chapter will be different then the book.
Katniss's Pov:
It's cold and rainy outside. Months after my father's death. I'm out in the rain trying to sell Prim's old baby clothes. I most have sunk rock bottom because I'm pleading for food from District 12's merchants. I'm starving and cold. The money we earned from my father's death in the mines ran out. My mom's soul died along with my father. She was supposed to get a job once the money ran out, but she just stay's in bed all day about my father's death. We don't tell people about it because they'll send use to the community home and I can't let sweet, little Prim go there. but here I am out in town looking for food. I decide to go to the butchers trash can. It's empty. The garbage man must have dumped it. If i was any older I would go to old Cray's, the Head Peacekeeper. To make some money for you know what.
But back to reality. Next, I go to the Bakery's. Nothing. But, just then the baker's witch of a wife comes out here and makes me go away. Just then I collapse on the cherry tree. I just wish I could die here. Then, I see a pair of bright blue eyes. Eyes that look my way every day. Yet I don't ever say something to him.
I hear screaming and someone being slapped. Then, the baker's son, the one with blue eyes that watch me, comes running out with a red hand mark on his cheek. I belive his name is Peeta. The baker's wife screams "Feed that to the pigs you stupid worthless creature." Then she goes back inside. After that, the baker's son comes ups to me. He said "Takes these before she comes back." They're two almost burned pieces of bread."Run" he says.
I run back home to my seam house. All the way I don't understand why he gave the bread. He most likely knew he was going to get a beating. So why did he give me the bread?
