Disclaimer: I DO NOT own Hunger Games! It belongs to Suzanne Collins! Only Amethyst belong to me, although there will be more made up characters later on in the story. And the Primrose in the story is Katniss's daughter that she renamed after the original Primrose.

Chapter 1

My name is Amethyst Shade. Right now, I'm 13 years old and I'm in the Hunger Games arena. I'm in District 14.

I run to the Cornercopia. I snatch up a backpack and run as fast as I can to the forest that I see in front of me. The trees loom above me as I race to find water, I have always been smarter than my two older sisters who are twins named Katherine and Katelyn.

I hear footsteps behind me, I try to run faster but my legs have failed me. I fall onto the ground. I'm panting heavily as I turn around to see a girl with blond hair. She looks young and scared and has blue eyes. She doesn't look harmful at all!

"Who are you?" I ask her.

Her lip quivers as she answers. "My name is Primrose Mellark." she says although she still looks frightened. We haven't yet made it far into the forest.

"Come on, lets go find water. By the way, I'm Amethyst Shade." I say. I motion for her to follow me.

When we make it far enough into the forest, I start climbing a big tree. She does the same. I cling onto a thick branch and pull myself up. Once I get onto the branch, I help her up. I smile at her. I open the backpack and see a knife, a bottle filled with water, a blanket, and dried berries.

"Here, drink some water." I hand her the water bottle.

When she finishes drinking, I take a share of water. A spear whizzes by, nearly missing my left ear. It hits the tree that we are on. I grab Primrose and put her on my back. Then I climb off of the tree and run as fast as I can. I can sense someone tracking us down.
