Okay. I just want to say that the person that drew the picture was...Peeta! Because he's an artist. I just wanted to point that out, incase you didn't pick up on it. Now the story.

I wake up and get changed into a green long-sleeved shirt, black trousers and my hunting boots(My only shoes.)

I find my father's old hunting jacket and put it on over my shirt. I do my long, black hair into my signature braid and let it fall down my back.

I find my pin that has a mockingjay with an arrow peircing through it, and pin it on to my jacket. My father got me this pin for my 5th birthday, he said that my voice is so beautiful all the mockingjays would stop singing just to listen.

I know that if I sold it we would food for months, but this is one few the few things I have left to remember him so I'm never going to sell it.

Prim is up and is getting dressed into a blue blouse and grey pants. I brush her beautiful blonde hair out and tie it up on top of her head. My Mother is already to go, so we leave the house and start walking towards the mines.

Gale POV

I wake up to the sound of my sister crying, she's not very happy we're leaving. I groan and flip my feet over the side of my bed. Rory is still in his bed, snoring away and Vick is up getting dressed. I find an old shirt and throw it on, along with a pair of dark pants and slip on shoes. I wake up Rory and try to calm Posy down.

"Please, Posy it's going to be alright, okay?" I say

"NO" She argues "I wan' Katti!"

Katti, is Posy's name for Katniss. There's something about Katniss that makes Posy so happy.

"Well, we're going to see, Katti" I say

"YAY" She says, without crying

We finish getting ready and walk out the door, and towards the mines where we will get to see *Katti*.

I spot Katniss and her family walking towards the mines. She's aware of me, but doesn't show any sign that she is. It's part of the plan, if we just pretend to ignore each other no one will think that this is planned. Of course since I promised Posy we'd see Katniss, she cries out as soon as we se her "Katti"

Dang it! Why did you have to do that, Posy? I think to myself.

"Well, who would've thought we'd see the Hawthorns here?" Katniss covers up "Where are you headed? We going to the old mines" Thank god, Katniss is great at hiding her emotions and covering up for people.

"We're going to the mines as well" Mom says smoothly "Maybe we could walk together?"

"Okay" Prim says cheerfully. We all walk together, the little ones chattering away. At first I was afraid that people would become suspicious, but I realized that everyone knows that we are good friends, so walking without socializing would be suspicious.

We reach the mines and walk in through the east exit. It's very dusty and dark in there and Posy starts to whimper.

"Sshh, Posy" Katniss trues to calm Posy down "It's okay"

We walk fairly far down when I say "I think this is okay" Katniss nods her head in approval. I set the explosives down and grab my match box from my pocket. Katniss empties her bag of animal bones and scatters them around the floor. It would be suspicious if there was no evidence of human body parts, so we kept the bones of animals we shot that are similar to ours.

I tell our Mothers and siblings to start running out of the Mine from the west exit. They obey and are gone within seconds.

"Ready to start running" I whisper to Katniss who stayed behind

"Ready" She answers. I light the explosives and we bolt. We run from the cavern, not wanting to be blow to bits.

BOOM!

The explosion causes lots of dust to rise, making it hard for us to breath. Katniss holds her jacket up to her mouth and I do the same with mine. We continue to run from the explosion and my legs are starting to give way. Katniss's must be too, she's starting to slow down considerably. I put my arm over her and practically drag her to the exit. When we reach it she collapses onto the bed of grass.

"You okay" I say

"Peachy" She says "Where's our families?"

"I dunno" I look around "Oh they're over there, in those trees"

"Smart" She says as she gets up. We walk over to the bundle of trees. When we reach our families we here a gasp.

"What?" Me and Katniss say together

"Your face, clothes, uuugh" Vick squirms. I look at Katniss, she covered in coal dust. She looks at my clothes at my face. We stay staring into each other's eyes for a moment then we burst out laughing. Our families give us a quizzical look.

"Are you two okay" Prim asks. This makes us laugh even harder. It's been a long time since I last laughed, it feels so good.

Okay, so in the next chapter I think I will introduce the other tributes, but first I need to know who is going to be in the story. For sure Foxface( in my story her name is Lexi), Rue, Glimmer and Cato.

Choose 2 other people who you want to see in the story;

Johanna

Finnick

Clove

Annie

Thresh

Marvel

Whoever gets the most votes will be in the story.

Also, I just want to point out that NONE of these people have ever gone in the games, and become victors. Please review! '\( ',')/
