Hey Guys this is my first Hunger Games FanFic. Please Leave reviews they would be greatly appreciated. I do not own the first sentence of this story. It belongs to the writers of the movie Savages. I also do not own The Hunger Games. All rights go to Suzanne Collins! Enjoy ! Also this will be rated M but nothing until a little later because I feel like I need to set up the story.


Just because I'm telling you this story doesn't mean that I'm alive at the end of it. The time period that i grew up in was a time of greed, corruption, and killing of innocent name is Katniss Everdeen and this is my life story.

I lived with my mother and my little sister Prim. I lived in district 12 according to the capital and other districts the worst of them all. We were the coal miners.

I bet you are wondering what happened to my father aren't you. Well, my father died in a mining accident when I was younger.

I have been taking care of my sister since after my fathers death. I started taking care of her because after my father died my mother pretty much checked out.

I hunt with my best friend Gale and before you ask Gale is a guy and Hunting is illegal. Before my father died he taught me how to hunt with a bow.

I sell meat at the hob in exchange for other things that we need. Today was different though because today is reaping day.

The reaping is where the capital forces one male and female child until the age of 18 to volunteer for the "games".

As punishment for the districts trying rebel we have these things called the Hunger Games where each district sacrifices one girl and one boy to participate and there is one winner.

Today Prim is old enough to be in her first reaping. I keep promising her that they are not going to pick her even though I am worried for her as well.

We get to the town square and we separate into boys and girls and then within those groups we group by age.

A women with ridiculous hair greets us with to much excitement. In the higher districts it may be an honor to get picked for the games but here it is considered a death sentence.

" Welcome to 74th annual reaping" " Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favor" " Now we are going to draw for the girls" she said in her cheering voice while pulling out a white slip of paper. " Primrose Everdeen" she called out in her shrill voice. " Prim, My little duck" I though frantically. I saw out of the corner of my eye my mother crying and I saw my sister timidly going toward the stage.

" I volunteer" I shouted while running toward Prim. She was still screaming my name when Gale took her away.

I walked almost as if in slow motion toward the stage and the Women with the obnoxious hair.

" Well I bet that was your sister wasn't it" she asked me. " Yes it was" I said with a stonic look on my face. " Well now let's get on to the boys shall we"

" Peeta Mellark" her voice rang out into the silence of the crowd. He walked up to the stage and I though that we might actually have a chance of making it.

We walked off the stage and then into the room so that we could sat goodbye. I told Prim that everything would be okay and that I would win for her. I told my mother that she better not check out on Prim again or so help me I would come back and kill her. I wouldn't really kill her but I would be extremely upset. Lastly I asked Gale to take care of Prim and make sure my mother didn't check out.

The last thing I saw of District 12 as the train was leaving was my crying sister and my mother.

I decided that I should probably look at the other reapings to see who Peeta and I would be up against. I must have looked back over the district 2 tributes 10 times.

I know that this is the Hunger Games but that boy Cato I think his name was is just so attractive. I hate that I think that but he is just so strong and muscular.

Peeta comes in an asks me what I am doing. " I'm seeing who we need to watch out for" I say hating that I sound just like a damn career, but if it gets me back to my sister then I will kill all the people that I need to.

By the time we are finished we decided that 1&2 are huge treats and the guy from 11. If we can get the guy from 11 and the girl we might get an alliance together and maybe last longer.

I am not one that is very social so I figured that I would leave asking about Alliances up to Peeta. About the time that we are done talking about this aymitvh finally makes an apperance,

" Hey you two" he slurs trying to sit down. Great this is just what I am going to need to get back to my sister a drunk mentor.

" I was just leaving" I say as I leave the compartment and go to my room.

I lay down on the plush bed and then I think about the blond haired blue eyed boy from district 2.

I don't know why I am so attracted to him but I am. He is probably some ruthless killer and won't give me the time of day.

I think that maybe if I show off my bow and arrow skills that I might be able to get a decent score and maybe last a little bit in the games.

I go to bed dreaming of a blonde haired blue eyed boy.
