'Gale Hawthorn," called out Effie Trinket, Gale marched to the stage, locking his eyes with those of his fellow constestant, and best friend, Katniss Everdeen. In that instant, he knew he wasn't going home.

In their training they stuck together, murmering rebellious thoughts to eachother and glaring that any career tha dared to glance their way. They both got 11 in their training score.

In the interviews, they were fake, flashing smiles and winning over the audience easily. There was no love affair, not for the capitol. That was their secret. The lovers of district 12 were only discovered during the games.

In the arena they fought together until the end, each unwilling to face the fact that the one of them had to die. They survived untill the final 4, in which a long fight which was never forgotten ensued. They fought the careers and won, at which point they recognised the end. They raised nightlock their chapped lips, hands entwined as they gased into eachother's broken eyes. A voice boomed, announcing two winners of the games. They ignored it. They swallowed the posionus berries and together toppled to the ground.

There was no winner.

They ignited a fire throughout the districts. There death was like a slap in the face,
"look how we died broken, look at what the capitol has done to us. Look how we never gave up our freedom" that was when people started to fight back.

Many years later, people told their children about the Star Crossed Lovers Of District 12, who died in eachother's arms in a desperate struggle against the Capitol. The heroes who unknowingly ended the slaughter of innocents.
