The Hunger Games FoxFace's POV

Chapter One: The Reaping

I woke up and it felt like any other day except today was different, today was the reaping. Every year the capitol forces each district to offer up one girl and boy between the ages of 12 and 18 to go into an arena and fight to the death. My name is Vixen Gloria Foxglove. I am 15 years old and my name is entered in the reaping 4 times. People in my district don't believe in getting tesserae. I am from district 5 and our main industry is power. My father was killed in a horrible accident two years ago. I hope I am not picked in the reaping this year because my family just got over his death and they do not need to watch me die on national television. I began getting ready after I got breakfast for the family. I got dressed in a beautiful dress that my mother would wear for the reaping. I fixed my hair in curls going down my back like I always do because it looks the best on me.

I left my house for the reaping about 30 minutes before they were suppose to begin. When I get there I stood in line and one of the capitol people pricked my finger then I went to stand with the other 15 year olds.

Then the reaping started like normal with the speech about the Treaty of Treason. After he finished Cherry Thane walked out as cheery as ever like she was actually excited to send two innocent kids to their deaths. Like all escorts she says, "Ladies first." and walks over to the giant ball with all of our names in it. She pulls out one name and walks back to the microphone. She carefully unfolds the paper as I am holding my breath and praying that it is not me. Then my worst nightmare comes true and the name on the paper is "Vixen Foxglove."

I am then escorted up to the stage. I am in such a daze that I could not make out the name of the boy that was called up to compete with me in the Hunger Games. As I realize who is standing next to me I almost pass out. I realize the guy standing next to me is none other than Frankie Filbert. Otherwise known as the boy that I am madly in love with. Great now I have to kill him in the arena. UGH!

We are then transferred into the Justice Building to say goodbye to our families because we all know we are not getting out of there alive.
