Disclaimer: I don't own the Hunger Games.

President Carter Brooks was born to be the President. She was the eldest of five siblings, and while the rest were raised to be spoiled, but intelligent, brats, she was raised to be a leader. Well, more like a Tyrant, but in Panem, it was the same thing.

She was first told she would be President when she was 8, by her father. She had taken her mother's last name, as it had been a trend when she was born, otherwise she would have the last name of Snow, like her father and all the presidents before her.

Once, she would have had much opposition to her rule, but after half a millennia of trying to usurp the Snow dynasty from the presidency (more like throne), most have given up. Carter still knows the traditional way of getting rid of enemies, but has yet had to use it. She is very young for being President, only 30, as her father had a heart attack two years ago.

Supposedly it was natural, but she doesn't believe it. She has yet to find the culprit though.

"Miss President, Eliana is here."

A fake smile falls on her face as her oldest sister walks in. Eliana is 27, and has kept the family tradition of looking natural with only a minor alteration. Eliana's hair is streaked with hot pink, which stands out of her golden hair. Ellie is Carter's least favorite, as she wanted to be President. Carter would suspect Ellie of their father's death if she weren't too stupid to pull anything off.

"Eliana, what are you doing here?"

"I came to see why you weren't at Bori's birthday party?"

"Ellie, you know I had to check with the gamemakers on the progress for the Games. I am the president of Panem after all, and some things are more important than my brother's 20th birthday party. Besides, I was there for his actual birthday."

"Carter, it's Bori! He's your brother; family!"

"Ellie, I didn't go. Nothing you say now is going to change that."

Carter looked back down at her paperwork, a clear message for Ellie to leave.

An icy tone crept over her sister's voice. "Wouldn't it be a shame if the public found out how little their supposedly family oriented president actually cared for her family, Carter?"

Carter's eyes widened, and she looked up at Ellie in shock, then her eyes narrowed to slits as anger took over the shock. "Are you threatening me?!"

The icy look in Ellie's eyes faded to a look of exhaustion. "No, Carter, I'm not. Just, next time, please try to be there."

"If I have nothing to do, Eliana, I'll be sure to attend."

Ellie looked at Carter with sadness and disappointment, then turned and left.

It would have been a shame to have to have her sister removed, and Carter would have had to spend a lot of time grieving. She was glad her sister had decided to take back what she said. However, her sister had said something disloyal. Perhaps she should have her watched. After all, she didn't want anything disrupting this year's Quarter Quell.

I decided to rewrite this chapter because it was really short and bothered me. The form is on my profile, as well as the tribute list so far. The twist is 60 tributes, and all districts except for 1 and 11 have at least one spot open for a male and female. I have 24/60 tributes so far, and all are really detailed and amazing. If you haven't submitted a tribute, please do!
