74th Hunger Games
Today is the Reaping. I wake up my sister, Addison. I take in our breakfast, a half cup of water and 2 cracker.
If you don't know us, I'm Madison the 'Wall'. Addison is the 'pillow'. We are conjoined twins. We at the moment support 13 kids, ranging in form newborns to 12 years. We are luckily to have a 12 year old. Me and Addison have the current record at 16 years. We have to support the kids due to the Circle Of Cavern, or COC. The kids we support are part of the COC Resistance.
Me and Addison go to the rooms to wake up all 13 kids. Those who are younger are watched by some of the middle ages. The girls have dresses and skirts will the boys have nicer pants and a semi-pressed shirt. Reaping clothes. Addison breaks my thought processes.
(Want to head down early? So we can be down there before the crowds.) Addison asks me.
(Sure. Every one is ready.) I tell her. I forgot one thing, we as twins can speck through our minds. As we are 16, we only have 2 more years to worry about our self.
All of us COC Resistance walk down to get checked in. Abigail is new so I help her out. She is our only 12 year old in the Resistance. We get through the check in before I hear someone.
"How are you this fine morning," Gale asks. Gale is our hunting partner. Will he ever learn?, I ask my self.
"As good as you can get," Addison replies. Me and Addison move towards the 16 female area.
The Treaty is read, a video of the war, the one and only Victor is read, Effie's intro. For the names, a lot of pep go in to the Reaping. "Ladies first," Effie states happily. The name called make me turn cold. "Abigail Renos." I want to break down, but I stay strong.
"I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!" Me and Addison yell at the same time. We walk out, together as we must.
"That is the spirit. Come on up so we can choses the tribute." Effie states. We walk up, then Effie walk around us. "Are you conjoined," Effie asks after some time.
"Yes. I'm Madison Saunders." I tell her.
"I'm Addison Saunders." Addison tells Effie.
"Look at her. Look at these two. They have lots of... Spunk. More then you. More then you!" Haymithch announces. I smell alcohol. If it could not have gotten worse, it did. Haymithch fell of the edge of the stage. The Peacekeepers come to pick him up.
"And now for the boys." Effie smiles and picks a slip of paper. That paper changed my life even more.
"Peeta Mellark." The slip reads.
I see a boy come up and on request shakes both of our hands. We all, Petra, me, and Addison; escorted to the room that will make us as good by to our family, or in some cases, those you look after.
