I do not own Hunger Games. That's Suzanne Collins.
District 1: Alexandrite Gleam POV
I jump out of bed and begin to do a happy is the reaping. I plan on volunteering. I know I will win. I will charm people into sponsoring me. I pull on a short, sleeveless , and sparkly pink dress. I brush my perfect, curly blond hair 50 times and put on some lip gloss. Perfect. When I reach the kitchen, our maid, Marla, hands me a steaming mug of hot chocolate and a gooey cinnamon roll. I eat it daintily as I wait for my parents to come downstairs. They already know I'm volunteering, and Mother said she got me a token. When I am nearly done, my parents walk down the stairs, and I see that my mother has something in her hand. "Alexandrite,"she says,"if you chose, this can be your token." She hands me a small black box. Inside is a beautiful piece of alexandrite. I look at her happily. "Thank you!" I say, hugging both my parents. "Come on," my father laughs,"lets get to the reaping, it starts in 15 minutes." We always walk to the reaping. Even though my father is mayor, we think of it as quality time, which we need today since I won't see them for a few months. When we arrive, I tell my parents goodbye and go stand with the other 16 year olds. Before I know it, Dredonia Inkheart is standing in front of us, and sticking her hand in the bowl. "And this year's District 1 tribute is... Allison Lee!" "I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE! " I yell at the top of my lungs. I walk up to the stage, smiling flirtatiously. "And what is your name?" Dredonia asks me. "Alexandrite Gleam."
District 1: Zircon Narcissus POV
I shove my twin, Sardonyx, playfully as we don't listen to the mayors speech. " I think I'm going to volunteer." I tell him. "You are?" He asks. I nod. "Good luck." He says. I grin and we wait for them to reap the girl tribute. Her name is Alexandrite Gleam. Then it's time for the boys. "And our male tribute is... Zircon Narcissus!" I begin to volunteer, but then I realize she called my name! I grin and walk up to the stage. "District 1, our tributes, Zircon Narcissus and Alexandrite Gleam!" Dredonia says. We are lead into the Justice Building, to say goodbye to our family. I sit down on a comfortable chair and wait for my sister, Tourmaline, my mother and father, and Sardonyx to say goodbye. Mother and Father smile proudly at me. "We're happy for you son." My father says. "Just try to come back in one piece." My mother and sister hug me and leave the room. Now only Sardonyx is left. "Promise you'll come back?" He asks me, " I'll try." I respond. He gives me a hug and then punches me on the shoulder. "See ya bro." "Bye." I call after him. I have left all things of home in the past now. I am ready to kill.
