The Hunger Games

Mia Lancaster POV

The next day was a very long ride back to town square. It had to be several hours before we got there. After all we do live on the edge of the capital. But it is well worth it since our house is huge. We sat in the car for a long time while Davis kept asking questions and complaining. It was so annoying.

When we finally got there was already standing on the stage. He had a very happy expression on his face. Well, he was always happy. Or at least I'd never seen him unhappy. He smiled and tapped on the microphone.

"Hello everyone," He smiled gazing around the crowd. "Today is a very special day. We will allow on courageous person to meet the tributes and help at the training centre. But today is not just about that. Today all of us get to watch the reapings from all districts and I hope you are all excited. I can't believe the reapings have step foot into our lives again. I have met some pretty courageous people over the past few days. Some of you have an amazing amount of enthusiasm. and hope and some of you I thought it was just amazing to meet you. You guys have been amazing and thankyou for making me feel welcome aswell for my first year being president. I can't believe some of the compliments I've gotten. Thanks again."

Everyone cheered and jumped for joy assuming they were the ones that he said were courageous and filled with hope. I smiled and noticed his attention was locked on me. I must have been the one he was talking about and it never once crossed my mind that it could be me.

It was almost time for the draw and it looked like most people were shaking they were so anxious to see if they were the lucky one. President ay lifted the big, heavy, glass bowl onto the desk at the front of the stage.

He stood there shuffled through the bowl and found a ballot. He opened it up and read, "The winner of the prize to go meet the tributes in person is Mia Lancaster.he then asked if I could meet him backstage after the reaping videos. I felt like screaming inside my head and then the reapings started. Starting with district 1.
