A/N: Nothing really to write here...check out Thirteen by jakey121 (a collaborative story I am involved in!) I am District 3 Female, Neon Edison *hint, hint, drop a review pretty please*

Verge: District Five

A weapon raised over an innocent face, a look of pure terror evident in the deep brown of her eyes. She didn`t expect me to be here, she`d fooled herself into thinking she had a chance of being the one to survive.

A piercing scream echoes through the wilderness, soft whimpers are heard for another few seconds before the air goes silent.

A cannon blast fills the empty space, the last memory of another dead tribute, the last sound to be heard of the District Ten female. She was only thirteen, she wouldn`t have lasted much longer anyway.

I tell myself it`s a necessary sacrifice, if she lives then that means death must await me, but the lie does not fool even my own conscience.

Even though I know the truth I choose to succumb to the monster within me.
