President McLean POV
The games were coming. It was always an exciting time for me, as it showed the districs the pain they were getting for uprising. But this time, I was a bit nervous. Last years tributes, especially two named Dawn and Beverly, showed signs of rebelling by eating berries when they made it to the final three, and left a tough, promising peace keeper in the making named Brick as the champion. After this, districts like 8 and 11 rebelled a bit. Matters were taken into the peacekeepers hands, as they delt with it as they were told, by executing them. That quieted down the districts a bit. But I still felt they were planning something. But we will soon find out.
Eva district 1 pov
I was ready for the games. All the members of my family had volunteered, all of them winning except for my sister Jo, or Joanne. But she was just weak. I knew if I didn't win I would be in the same class as my sister, but I knew that wouldn't happen. The capitol representative for district 1, Glimmer, was about to call the girl for our district.
"Dakota Bristol" she shouted.
"I volunteer for tribute" I shout back.
"What is your name dear?" She asks.
"Eva Long" I say.
"Well you are a brave young lady to volunteer."she states. " Now it is time for our male tribute. Tyler Yaxley!" She shouts.
I smirk. I know him, he goes to my school. He is so clumsy he would probably die by tripped onto his own sword.
Well that was the end of chapter 1. I know it was short. The rest of the reaping will come next chapter
