This is just the intro of the story. It's short, but I think it's good. I just wanted to give you guys a little sneak peek, just to see if you like it.
If you do I'll continue the story! :)
"Hey, Margaret! I didn't think you'd be mentoring this year."
I turned around to see Haymitch approaching me from across the room.
Haymitch Abernathy, the only living victor from District 12. Won his Hunger Games just 15 years ago.
"And I didn't think you'd be sober for them," I remarked "So I guess we were both wrong. And you know you can call me Mags, or Maggie. Margaret seems to... ugh."
He laughed a little "I thought Perseus was mentoring this year." he said. "With Chelsea, I mean."
"Well yeah, it was her turn. But I volunteered to be mentor this year instead." I said.
"Why?"
"Well didn't you hear?" I asked "Chelsea's pregnant."
He raised an eyebrow at me "Is that so? Well congratulate her for me, would you Maggie?"
I smiled a little "I'm not sure she wants to keep it. The poor thing, she knows it wont make it through it's 14th birthday. The Capitol never misses a chance for entertainment." I said.
"Is that the reason why you never had kids?" he asked.
"One of them. Besides, I have enough kids to take care of already." I say motioning towards this year's tributes.
He laughed, louder this time "At least yours have a chance," he said glancing over at my tributes "My money's on the boy." he declared.
"His name is Finnick," I said "he's only 14."
"He sorta reminds me of me,"
And this time I laughed "Looks don't get you anywhere. Skill does, you should know that. I'm thinking Aedre, that's the girl. She's 17, she's strong, she-"
"Looks can be deceiving Maggie," he said "You should know that."
I hope you liked it! Let me know if I should continue it :) REVIEW! XD
