Fire Spreads

Hunting. The one think I feel free to do. My name is Seraphina Mellark. I am 13 years old and i live in District 12. My mother is Katniss and my father is Peeta. I'm sure you know their names since they are in almost every history texbook. While everyone thinks they're heroes i think they are cycopaths. I know that's harsh but when your mother wakes up screaming in the night and your father tries to choke you and your mother it obviously means they are lunatics. I look like my mother mostly. I have olive skin and gray eyes. I have black hair too but im different from my mom because I have little streaks of blond hair. I have a younger brother, too. His name is Nico. He takes after my dad. While i have what people call the Seam look, my little brother looks completly different. He has blond hair and blue eyes just like my father.

I crawl under the metal fence. My mother said it used have electricity going through it. Now its just there so animals don't wander into District 12. I love to hunt. Beyond the fence it's like a completely different world. I slowly walk through the dense forest. I shoot my arrow at the huge rabbit. I miss because it hops away before by arrow can reach it.

"Hi, Im Gabriel. What's your name?" I wondered who he was? I was the only one who dared to enter this forest ever since my mother said she couldn't handle being here. She said something about someone named Gale Hawthorne.

" I'm Seriphina. Seriphina Mellark. Not to be rude but who are you?"

" Well like I said I'm Gabriel Hawthorne. I'm from District 2 and we moved here two days ago. Anything else you want to know about me?"

" Actually yes. Is your father Gale Hawthorne? How old are you? And why are you in the woods?"

" Someone's a little pushy. To answer your questions they are yes, 14 and a half and I'm in the woods because I like to hunt."

He seemed okay. Maybe we could be friends. He is kinda cute. No, No. I can't. It would only traumatize my parents even more.
