I am Cassie Green, however I used to be called Cassandra Crane. It feels different living in district 12 than the Capitol. Well different doesn't even begin describe it. Here I'm starving constantly, I live in a part called the 'seam' we are poorest of the poor. We scavenge and some days we live off only plants and water. Maybe if dad was here then it would have been easier, he had a way with people, that I and nobody else in my family possesses. I wish that he was still here, that President Snow haven't had 'finished' with him. If those stupid 'star crossed lovers' from district 12 then my dad would still be alive.
My father was Seneca Crane, the Seneca Crane. Snow murdered him after both the tributes from district 12 'won'. Snow offered me, my mother and my twin brother and sister, that if we moved to district 12 then he would spare our lives. My mother jumped at the chance, but I guess I have the brains in the family, I know that I and my siblings will pay for my father's death. Snow is that transparent, he uses fear to control the districts, which are ready to rebel any day soon. Everyone here knows that, I can feel the anger towards him and the Capitol bubbling under the surface. Like a fuse ready to blow and those victors are just the start of it. At least they have snows attention now instead of me.
I like the woods here in district 12 the most, everything is actually real and natural unlike the fakeness of the Capitol. I know that the Capitol can't see me here as I have read some files of my father, thinking that they were going to place an arena just after the boundaries of district 12. My father used to find it a pain of trying to find a new place to put the arena each year, that is unique. Well last years games were exciting enough last year, even without the arena layout.
District 12 is now my home, I don't think of the Capitol as my home no more. I will be waiting for my death sentence by snow along with 23 other kids.
