Let the 71st Hunger Games begin!
District 7
"Oh, I am going to kill myself today!" shouted Johanna.
"Why," replied Mrs Mason
"Mum you know why today is reaping day!"
"Oh yes dear, but don't worry your name is only in the reaping ball seven times so your changes are slim as I won't allow you to take teressae"
"I know but last year Olivia White picked out my best friend Jess and she had her name in six times and she never made past the cornucopia bloodbath as the Victor (Annie Cresta) killed her before becoming mentally unstable".
"It's ok, they won't pick you so just relax".
Johanna decided to get away from the house as it only made her think about the stupid Hunger Games created by the evil Capitol. She quickly walked to woods which were only five minutes away from her home and she sat down on the grass which was as green as Olivia White's hair at last year's reaping. Johanna lied on the grass and looked up at the sky while she was thinking about her life, the Hunger Games and the Capitol until she was disturbed.
"Hi Johanna", said a handsome young man.
"Hi Johnny, Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favour!"
Johnny and Johanna looked at each other and laughed and then Johnny gave Johanna a hug. They looked at each other in the eyes and kissed passionately for minutes until it was time to get ready for the reaping.
Johnny has two eyes which are a green as the trees in District Seven and his face is so beautiful all the girls in his school stare at him in the corridor and whisper in each other's ears about him but Johnny only had his eyes on one girl the quiet yet gorgeous Johanna. After the long kiss Johanna looked into Johnny eyes and they hugged tightly.
"Johanna it's time to go the reaping is starting soon, go home and get changed and i will see you after the reaping ok".
"Ok, good luck,"
"Make sure you dress nice," Johnny replied sarcastically.
"Oh i will,"
Johanna hurried home as fast as she could and found that her mother had put out one of her prettiest dresses. She found a note next to the dress which said "Of to the Bakery back soon". The Bakery is located right on the other side of District Seven near the Snow forest near the border between District Seven and District 10. The dress was light green and long up until the knees. Johanna put on the lovely dress and combed her long brown hair and then her mother returned to the house. Mrs Mason went to offer Johanna a small slice of bread and left the rest for later as she would be celebrating another years of Johanna being saved from a horrible death in the Hunger Games hopefully.
"You look sexy darling (Johnny will be impressed as usual) and you better get to the Justice Building soon as the reaping will start in an hour i will come in five minutes after i lock our house"
"Yes mum"
Johanna kisses her mother's cheek and makes her way to the Justice Building which is half an hour walk from her house. She arrives at the Justice Building and hurries to register with the Peacekeepers then makes her way to crowd of eighteen year old girls at the back of the section and catches sight of her mum who had just arrived.
Her mum smiles at her and Johnny who is directly opposite her and he mutters to her you look fantastic. Then the escort of District Seven Olivia White comes on the stage and the reaping begins.
