Note, I do not own anything to do with the Hunger Games other than these stories. Glass Featherwill and the other characters are OCs.


Normal POV

A gasp comes from the people attending the reapings. "Going to the Hunger Games without a mentor?" everyone was worried. "A Hunger Games without mentors? No mentors mean no sponsors. I don't think President Paylor mentioned it. What am I going to do?

President Paylor comes back and announces "I forgot to mention, there will be no sponsors for this Hunger Games. When the tributes go into the arena, they will be on their own. There will be no help from anyone other than the people inside the arena. Now we will proceed to the reaping.

"Ladies first". President Paylor moves toward the glass container which holds the girl's name. She slowly picks out a name, and says, "Glass Featherwill,"


Glass Featherwill's POV

"Glass Featherwill," That is my name. I was reaped to go for the Hunger Games. I walk out to the platform, and I hear another girl. "I volunteer a-," I freeze. That voice belongs to my younger sister, Lily Featherwill. Just as she was about to finish her sentence, I shout, "Don't Lily! I will go, and you look for mum! Let me go, and you go back, Lily," Now she can't do anything. She won't be volunteering. President Paylor takes another paper from the girl's container. "Tevia Jinkson"

Oh no. Not her. Not my best friend, who will now be trying to kill me. I feel empty now. I don't remember anything about the reapings, and I don't want to know either. My mind is blank, and the only other thing that I can remember now is how I nearly got Tevia killed. She'll want to kill me herself for that. I do notice that President Paylor is moving towards the boy's container, so she must be done with the girls. After that, my mind goes blank.


A few hours later...

Where am I? I am in a strange land. I see someone familiar with a sword in their hands. He takes a swing with the sword and I feel a sharp pain. I scream, and I wake up. Again I am in a bed, but this is a little different. I see Tevia running towards me. "Where am I? What am I doing here? What happened?"

"You fainted on the platform during the reapings. Nothing much happened,"

"How long was I out?"

"Just a few hours, nothing has started yet. Don't worry, I'm here,"

"Thanks Tev. Who else was reaped?"

I see Tevia looking disturbed. I wondered what happened. "You know my boyfriend, Ty Lerkinson? He got reaped too," I comfort Tevia. I don't know what will happen next.


Katniss POV

"It looks like we're not gonna be mentoring anyone Peeta,"

"I know. I actually pity them, you know. They have no help in the Hunger Games at all,"

"But Cinna helped me a lot,"

"Well, Cinna isn't here anymore. Do you think that there are any other Capitol citizens like him?"

"You're right," I admit. He is really good with words and very convincing too.

"You wanna go into the woods?"

"But, I-I'm a little scared of the woods,"

"After all you have been through? I'd expect the woods wouldn't be that bad. By the way, I'll guide you," I laugh. I don't think he meant to be funny, but it's just not, how do say it? exactly what it seems.

"Alright. Fine, if you won't call me a scaredy-cat," Peeta laughs too.

We run over to the fence and just jump over its remains. We know that across these woods is District Thirteen, but we don't want to go there. We go over to the spot where I normally meet Gale.

"Look who's here," Gale says.

"Hey Gale, if you don't mind, I want to take Peeta along. It's his first time in the woods,"

"Well, alright," Yes, I think. He agrees.

We go have a little walk in the woods, and Peeta is a little nervous. I think it reminds him of the Hunger Games.
