Who is my hero, you might ask? Simple. Jack Storm. Winner of the first Games. I trained my whole life to volunteer. I'm going to win and live by Jack. I. Could. Not. Wait. I knew I could win. I just did.
I dressed in my tux and walked downstairs. My mother had me a huge breakfast, knowing what I was going to do.
"Keep your eye on the prize. Don't let them volunteer before you. You are going to go to the Capitol, you are going to win, and we will live by Jack" my mother asured me.
"I know I will" I said. I have to addimit, I was a bit nervous. I mean, what if I loss? I decide not to think about it. I finsih my king sized breakfast and headed for my day: Reaping Day.
Alyssa Mays
My silkky black hair rested on my shoulders. I sigh as I stare at my beautiful sea green dress. My little sister, Jeena, walked up dressed just like me, but in a five year old size.
"You look bootiful" she said with her little girl accent.
"You do, too, Princess Jeena" I say, pulling her up on my hip.
"C'mon! Time for the Reapings!" roared my OTHER sister, Katie. There was also Hannah. Lota girls, huh? Wrong. My freind, Caitlin, has seven sisters, and two brothers. A total of ten children.
Well, me and Jeena walked downstairs and ate. We then went to the worst Reaping ever.
We extited our house and walked down the streets. I look at the diffrent families that have lost thier children from these days. Som, who looked happy, I knew thier children had a) never been reaped, or b) thier child is one of the three Victors.
We made it to the square. I saw Jack Storm sit with the other two Victors and the mayor. The mayor stood and read the boring Treaty of Treason, then the history of Panem, history of the Dark Days, and gave a list of all the twelve Victors of the Games. This year, there'd be thirteen. This was the unlucky year. So, that's my excus for being reaped.
They reached into teh girls name and they read it aloud: Alyssa Mays. I glumly walk up there as my family booed and cried. I walked in shock and terror and took my seat. A boy with black hair and stunning green eyes volunteered and shook my hand. I remebered him: he was one of the people who'd pick on me at school: Daily Templsmith.
District Five
Lucan Karave
I am diffrent. I have done somthing no one ever does in my District. I've been training like a Career. My sister won the sixth Games, and ever since she's been training me to win these Games.
I walked downstairs in our Victor Village home. It was just me and Maloni, as our parents died when I was five. I knew I was strong. I knew I was fast. I knew I could win these Games. I just knew it. I wonder who my competion will be? Nah, I'll beat them anyway. My sister smiles at me as I enter the kitchen. "I have your favrite" she said, putting her arm around me.
"Thanks" I say starting to eat my eggs. I chomp down some bacon while I was at it. I made sure I was full. I mean, how many people from Five Volunteer just to be in the Games? No one, that's who, so I had to look my best. Me and

Alota Senaro
It was time for the Reapings. That anual disater. I rose from bed and combed my brown hair. I stepped into the dress my mother laid out for me. To tell you the truth, it's a bit girly for my liking, but I don't have anything nicer. You see, our family is low on money. Poor. Then my parents fight alot. Only person I can go to with my problems is my best friend, Clue.
I walked down and ate what is for some people, a medium breakfast, but for me a large one. Piles of eggs and toast. I wondered how we could aford all this. We're deffintly not rich enough. Still, how? Did people donate just for this one breakfast? Well, at least my parents weren't fighting. I knew and hoped if somthing ever happened to me, they'd stop. Like what happened later into the Reapings.
We quickly headed off. Keen followed my footsteps as we headed to the square. I took deep breaths. I had to be strong for Keen. I didn't know what was wrong with me then, it was like the feeling like everything is about to come un-done. And it did.
I went to stand with my age group. Me and Clue chit-chated until the mayor came up and read all that boring stuff about the history of Panem, the Dark Days, an dthe Hunger Game's origin. I cancel it out and soon the escort reaches into the girls bowl. She ruffles around the names, then picks one from the bottom. I prayed that it wasn't me.
And it wasn't. It was Clue Evensbee.
I went into shock, wondering what I'd do without my best freind. Gone at the Games. Then, I did something stupid. "I VOLUNTEER!" I ran up to the stage as Clue whispers for me not to, but how couldn't I? She's the reason I'm here. A boy with black hair volunteered. Eh, sibling to a Victor. No biggy.
District Six
Vigilante Huntst
I awoke from my luxary bed. See, my dad's a peackeeper. We are rich. Oh yeah, my mom's the best scientist in the District. A'int my life sweet? I love the Hunger Games for it's violonce. I want to go one year, but I don't got the guts to volunteer. I really wish I did though...
I headed downstairs. My whole family was off work, except my dad. He had already left to take partol duty for the Reapings. It wasn't for another two hours, but he likes getting there early. Two hours early...bit too early, don't you think? He does it every year. No, veryday. I never see him. My mom was off work until the Reapings are over. We finished our breakfast.
We stood up and marched to the square.
Shakira Nightengale
Today was the Reapings. When I was born, my father was reaped at eighteen. He never knew me. He died in the bloodbath. Everyday, I watch the spear enter his head. It is horrifing, but I must. To get stronger. My mother said he wanted me to be strong as an ox.
I ate my breakfast boringly. People are lucky to have fathers to guid them through life. I have an isane mother and a little sister. Nothing could stack up to a father right now...
We then made our silent trip to the square for the Reapings. We pasted Vigilante. He's cute. I went to my section and stood through the boring letters and treaties and blah, blah, blah. It seems to get worse every year. Soon, he reached into the girl's bowl. Please don't be me! I whisper under my breath.
"Shakira Nightengale!" roared the escort. I heard my mom go insane as my sister went: "Shaira gets to go on TV show!" I knew she thought I would come back soon. It wasn't soon. Soon, Vigilante was called. He got his dream: He got to be in the Games. I got my nightmare: I got to be in the Games.
Alota Senaro-District Five
First to come say good-byes is my mother. We shake as she asks: "Why?"
"Because you never cared enough about my problems. Clue did. I had to make it up to her" I respond.
"She could've won. We didn't have to be apart" she said, pushing some hair from my face. I notice my father was silently crying ebhind my mother. We sit there like this until they have to leave. Then Clue comes in.
"Why?" is her first words.
"I couldn't let you" I respond, now crying, too.
"I would've won. You could moved into my Victor Village home and keep away from your parents" she said.
"I wan'na do it by myself. I wan'na earn my right to be away from them. Even if it means a chance at being dead in the end" I say. We hug. We were stuck like that, crying into each other's shoulders. Soon, peackeepers take Clue away.
Aw, don't you think that's sad? Well, to give you the truth, I can't write sad stuff, but that's the sadest thing I could come up with. Tell me if you think it is, please? Thank you!
