There was one day that every one in Panem woke up in the same time, for the same reason. The reason for it? 3 words: The Hunger Games. Everyone was scared of The Hunger Games, whether it was a parent, a kid, or a teen.


District 1 Reaping-Shocked

Beck Oliver woke up immediately, and he knew that everyone else would be waking up at that time, too. He and his family went to the District Square tiredly, and were ready to go back to sleep. The announcer made her yearly boring speech, and Beck was ready to fall asleep. The announcer finally was announcing the name, and 4 words made Beck jump- Beck Oliver and Cat Valentine. They went up to the stage, looking like the world had ended. They got in the train, and off they went.


District 2 Reaping-Why Me?

Andre and Tori woke up at the same time, because of the Hunger Games. Tori worried that they would pick her sister, Trina, and Andre just worried about himself, because he didn't have a sister or a brother. They all marched to the Town Square, very nervously. The announcer did her yearly speech, and then got to what they'd all been waiting for- the announcing of the tributes.

The announcer said, "Trina Vega…."

Tori immediately yelled, "I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!"

The announcer asked Tori, "Okay then, what's your name, dear?"

Tori replied, "Tori Vega."

The announcer, who Tori realized to be Effie Trinket, said, "Ah, don't want your sister to get all the glory, eh? Well, our girl tribute is Tori Vega! And now, for our boy tribute," she said as she reached into the container that held the boys names, "And for our boy tribute, we have… Andre Harris! Come on up, Andre." Andre went up.

"Why me, out of all the people here? Why did she have to pick Andre Harris?" Andre thought while he went up.


District 3 Reaping-Rebellious

Sam Puckett woke up on Reaping Day feeling rebellious. She felt ready to be picked. But she knew her boyfriend, Freddie, would be freaking out. She laughed at the thought of him and his protective mom running around the house, freaking out. She decided she would go over to his house, just to see if they were freaking out. She walked very stealthy over to the Benson house. She saw Freddie crying, and his mother telling him that they weren't gonna pick him. That was too much for her. She went to the District Square, ready for them to pick her. She waited a little bit, and then saw people coming. Once there were enough people, the announcer began her speech.

"Just get to the part where you pick us!" Sam yelled.

"Okay, then. Our female tribute is…. Samantha Puckett! Come on up, Samantha."

"Never. Call. Me. Samantha. My name is Sam." Sam said as she went up.

"Okay then, Sam. Our male tribute is…. Fredward Benson! Come on up, Fredward." Effie said.

Sam, Freddie, and Freddie's mom could not believe Effie Trinket just yelled Fredward Benson. Freddie went up there, close to tears, and said, "My name is Freddie." He barely got that out. Sam knew this was going to be a Hunger Games that they would remember.


District 4 Reaping- They Knew

Carly Shay woke up on Reaping Day afraid. Of course she'd be afraid. Everyone was afraid of The Hunger Games, Carly told herself. There was a very low chance that she would be picked. She calmed down, and yelled, "Spencer! It's time to go to the reaping. Make sure not to set the stage on fire this time."

"Hey, they told me to fix it last time!"

"Yeah, and you didn't. Now let's go."

The Shays walked to the District Square, and felt ready for anything.

The announcer said, "Happy Hunger Games. Let's get right to it, the girl tribute is….. Carly Shay! And for our male tribute, we have…. Gibby Gibson! Come on up, Carly and Gibby."

Carly and Gibby went up, shocked. They would have never guessed that they, out of all the people in District 4, were picked. They knew they would die in that arena.


District 5 Reaping-Positive

Kendall Knight woke up on Reaping Day, and knew that he wouldn't be reaped. He had to look at this positively. But he knew telling yourself that would make it so you would be reaped. He gave up. "Come on, Mom! We gotta get there. You know the punishment for not going!"

"I know, I know. Let's go."

They walked to the District Square, and waited for them to announce the tributes.

"Okay, for our female tribute, we have…. Camille Roberts, and for our male tribute, we have…. Kendall Knight. Come on up, Kendall and Camille."

They went up, and Kendall felt… he couldn't explain how he felt. He felt… rebellious, scared, and shocked, all at the same time. And no one knew what Camille felt. She'd never tell anyone, because she's an actress.


District 6 Reaping-Ready

Carlos Garcia woke up ready. He woke up ready for anything. It was Reaping Day. That was why he felt ready. He and his family walked to the District Square, ready. The announcer got ready, and said, "Welcome, welcome. Happy Hunger Games! Let's see, our girl tribute is… Jo Taylor! And for our male tribute, we have… Carlos Garcia! Come on up, Carlos and Jo! Happy Hunger Games!" They knew they would never make it. But they were ready.


District 9 Reaping- Dreaming

Amber Millington woke up on Reaping day, and with all the noise and such, she could have easily mistaken it for the end of the world. But she knew what it was. Reaping Day. The day she feared the most. She couldn't be picked. And Amber always knew her family would volunteer for her…right?

"Amber, darling, time to go to the Reaping!" Her mother said in a cheerily voice.

"Co-ccoming, Mother." Amber stammered. She could not, would not be picked. They walked to the Town Square.

"Happy Hunger Games! Let's see here... for our female tribute, we have… Amber-"The announcer started.

"No, no, no, it cannot be me, not me, God, if you're out there, make it not me, please, please!" Amber thought.

"Millington! And for our male tribute, we have…Fabian Rutter! Come on up, Fabian and Amber!" The announcer finished.

"God, I'm not here. Please help me." Amber thought.

Amber had to go up. So did Fabian.

Amber felt betrayed. Her family…didn't volunteer for her.

"Please tell me this is a dream." Amber thought. But it wasn't a dream.


District 10 Reaping-Different Reason

Eddie Miller woke up on Reaping Day hoping. Hoping that he and Patricia Williamson would be picked.

"But what are the odds of that? Like a bazillion to one." Eddie thought.

His family wanted to be the first ones there, so they walked there as soon as they woke up. Soon after, more people started to come, and Effie Trinket started talking.

"Happy Hunger Games! Boy, gotta love the sound of that. Let's get right to it, for our female tribute, we have Patricia Williamson, and for our male tribute, we have Eddie Miller. Come on up, Patricia and Eddie!" Effie said.

Patricia and Eddie went up, both in shock, but for Eddie, it was for a different reason.


Note: District 7, 8, 11, and 12's reapings will be posted later. I will explain.
