OK EVERYONE THIS IS THE FIRST PROPER CHAPTER TO MY STORY, IT'S THE DISTRICT 1 REAPING.

ASHLYN MILLER POV

I start brushing my long and beautiful hair whilst walking around the district.

"Good morning Ashlyn" a boy named Gilded says bowing at me like I am royalty

"Morning Gilded" I say smirking "Are you ready for today"

"As ready as I'll ever be" Gilded smiles "I just hope I'm not reaped so someone else won't volunteer"

"Well that would be a shame because it means I wouldn't be able to stab you in the throat" I hiss

Gilded laughs thinking it was a joke but I was being serious. If we were in the games I wouldn't wait to slice his sorry ass up.

My closest friends Opal and Loretta walk up to me.

"Ashlyn we have terrible news" Opal says to me "Lindsay has been spreading a rumour that you slept with Adam"

"Oh please" I laugh "Lindsay is so pathetic, is that all she's got"

"Are you not upset" Loretta asks

"Of course not" I giggle "When I win the games I'll just kill her. I'll be able to get away with it"

Opal and Loretta laugh. Nobody takes me serious when I make death threats but they should because I'm not kidding, I am being deadly serious.

"Oh my god" Opal says looking at my neck "I love your diamond necklace, where did you get it"

I touch my necklace and laugh "My daddy got it me, I'm slightly disappointed though. I asked for the new silver blade dagger but he got me this instead"

"Well it's adorable" Loretta smiles

We walk to the town square and I wait by the other girls. Linda Jones walks to the stage smiling wearing a gold wig and outfit with a large silver flower in her hair

"Now let's get started quickly" she giggles "I was running late so we need to get this done"

She quickly crosses to the bowl and snatches out a name

"Alice Hay"

"I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE" I shout

"Lovely, we have a volunteer" Linda says as step out of the crowd flashing my beautiful teeth

I barge through the other girls saying "Move, get out of my way, coming through, don't touch me"

"Ladies and gentlemen" I smile "I am Ashlyn Miller and I am going to win the games"

ADAM WOODSHEART POV

"Adam" my mother Luna calls "Come here darling"

"Yes mom" I say

"I hear you were planning volunteering today so I made you your tribute token" she says and she passes me something.

I look at it and see a bracelet made from the finest jewels in our district. My mother is one of the best jewellery makers in the whole of Panem. She is famous for it.

My 20 year old brothers walk into the kitchen. Markus and Medius. They're twins. Markus volunteered at 16 for the 77th hunger games and then a year later Medius volunteered for the 79th games. So I am related to two victors and soon all of my mother's children shall be victors.

"Today's the big day Adam" Medius laughs

"Yeah" Markus says "I hope you've been practising throwing your spears"

"I have" I laugh with them "Those idiots won't know what hit them"

Everyone in my family has dark black eyes and brown curly hair.

"We've got to meet Auntie Lexi later for the celebrations" mother says

"What celebrations" Medius asks

"For Adam volunteering" Mom says "I won't to remember the day Adam became a star"

"Are we going there or are they coming here" Markus questions

"Well they're coming here obviously, they don't live in the victors village so it would be polite for them to see what glory looks like for a couple of hours" Mom laughs "Now come on quickly"

We all rush out the door for the reaping. I sign in and Mom, Markus and Medius wait with the other people not able to qualify for the games.

Linda bounces up and quickly reaps a girl. Ashlyn Miller. She's in the same class as me. She smiles at the crowd before putting her attention to the boys to see who her partner is.

"And the boy is….GILDED AARON"

"I VOLUNTEER"

I quickly shove past the others until I get to the stage. Ashlyn evaluates me. She looks me up and down. This is going to be a unforgettable games.

ASHLYN MILLER POV

I look Adam up and down. He's in my classes but I rarely speak to him. I've also seen him at training. He's good with spears but I am much more trained then him. I can slash his neck out with a sword in a second.

Before I enter the train I wait at the justice building. Opal and Loretta enter the room and hug me. I hug them for a second before shoving them away from me. Hugs annoy me after a while.

"We're going to miss you girlfriend" Opal says

I hate it when Opal calls me girlfriend. It makes us sound like we're best friends and that if she died I'd be dreadfully sad when really I wouldn't care. Nicknames make me feel sick.

"Is your dad not coming to say goodbye" Loretta asks

"No, daddy is on a business trip but I don't care. He'll see me on the television soon" I say

"I'm going to miss you so much" Opal says starting to cry

Oh my god not the crying. It annoys me so much, she needs to grow a spine or at least steal someone elses. I wouldn't be crying if she was going into the games, In fact I wouldn't even be visiting her.

"Here take my diamond necklace to remember me" I say kindly passing it to her

"Oh thank you" Opal sniffs "You like me so much your giving me a gift to remember you"

Yeah right. The only reason I'm giving it to her is so it doesn't get damaged in the games, once I get back I'll sell the diamonds so I'll have the money to get that dagger I wanted or even better the Capitol sword someone is selling on the black market.

"Times up" a peacekeeper says

"Well, goodbye" I say. Opal and Loretta leave the room crying.

Finally they're gone. People always look forward for the district 2 tributes as they are the most bloodthirsty…not this year. The viewers of Panem might want to stay up late because after seeing me on the television, they'll have nightmares of me and a lovely gleaming sword.

ADAM WOODSHEART POV

"Good luck little brother" Markus says

"I'm going to miss you" Medius says

"We're going with him you dumbass" Markus hisses

"Oh yeah, we're your mentors" Medius laughs "I forgot"

I roll my eyes

"I'll see you soon mother" I say hugging my mom

"I know you will. Don't forget your token" she says

I show her the shining jewels on my wrist and she smiles.

Markus and Medius leave so I have a few minutes with my mother and once that's over I go to the train station with Ashlyn and Linda.

The train is amazing. We have some gold in our district but every doorknob in here looks like solid gold.

I meet Markus and Medius a second later on the train.

"Guess what little brother, we're your mentor" Medius says

"Awesome" I laugh

"And we're Ashlyns" says an old woman, about 70, behind her is a man who looks like he's from the military.

"I'm Décor Potts, victor from the 55th hunger games" Décor says

"Ha, you're her mentor" Medius laughs "You're like 100"

"I may be "like 100" but I survived the hunger games and the second rebellion, I was supposed to be killed but I managed to escape death twice"

"Yes" Markus smirks "But that's when you were in your youth, you have no skills now"

"No skill" she smiles. She picks up a knife and chucks it at the wall exactly where she aimed it. She growls at me Markus and Medius "Come on Ashlyn, You'll meet you're other mentor Cutter later. Bye boys"

Ashlyn laughs at us "Later bitches"

And the two girls leave. Me and my brothers stand there rigid.

I REALLY LIKE ASHLYN AND ADAM. ANYBODY GOT ANY GUESSES WHAT ASHLYN'S AND ADAMS POWER WILL BE. PLEASE REVIEW THE MORE YOU REVIEW THE QUICKER THE CHAPTERS WILL COME OUT.
