Hello everyone! Thanks for taking the time to read my story. Well, Katniss might be a little OOC. This is my first fan fiction on Hunger games, so lets see how it goes.

Now read on little ones (:

Katniss POV:

I opened my eyes on the Reaping Day. I got dressed on the Reaping Day. I ate on the Reaping Day. Everything appeared to be normal on the Reaping day. But underneath the normalcy was a tint of hysteria.

"What if I was chosen? I mean there are about 20 slips in the ball with my name on it. Katniss Everdeen. What if Prim was chosen? No, she couldn't be. There is only one slip with "Primrose Everdeen" written on it."

That thought calmed my nerves a tad. I got ready for the day like it was a normal day. Gale and I decided to meet each other in the woods, our favorite place, before the Reaping.

As I'm leaving I see Prim left me a block of her goat cheese. Fantastic! On my way out I look back into the little house.

"What if this is the last time I will ever be here alive?

No, don't think like that." I told myself.

Once I saw Gale I instantly felt at peace. He is my best friend. He is literally the only person I truly trust. I could tell him everything, anything.

"Hey Catnip." He said grinning.

I laughed. "Hey Gale."

"Goat cheese, thank you Prim!." He exclaimed.

"Haha. Yup."

"Look what I caught." Gale held up a loaf of bread with an arrow through the middle.

"Nice." I said.

I couldn't get into spirit. Too much was on my mind.

Gale handed me a piece of bread with goat cheese smeared on it. We ate in silence.

Finally Gale said, "Katniss. Don't be worried. If you're… chosen I'll look after Prim and your mother."

"Thank you." I said quietly.

"Well I should get going. The Reaping is in an hour." I said getting up.

"Okay. See you." Gale said walking away.

I walked home slower than usual. I wasn't looking forward to this. No one was. When we went back to school two kids wouldn't be there. It's terrible.

As I walked into the house my mother pulled me into her room and showed me the dress I will be wearing. A beautiful aqua colored dress with matching shoes. It was my mothers.

"Mom, are you sure?" I said, my voice harsh.

"Yes. Go put it on."

I slipped on the dress and she started to work on my hair. She somehow put it into a beautiful braid and set it on top of my head. I was ready.

Well, there's the first chapter! Hope you all liked it! Please review it if you want more ;3

Love Love Love.
