Hey guys...uh, and girls. Sorry it took so long. You know how it is. Any who, this is a shout out to all who have Favorited and/or followed me... angelofmusic4ever, h3rm0ne, ruckes, Peeta6in6real6life, and Matmos! Thank you Guys and Girls so much for your support.

Sorry for the wait…I've been sick for the past few days (Jan 29, 30, 31) ughhh…. So anyway…

All remaining tributes are bloodbath tributes so tell me if I should make a back storie or not…no response is a no.

I'm trying to decide if I will continue because it is hard with my crazy, secretive life outside of fan . Not to mention a billion other ideas circling in my head. And I would also like your pre reaping preference, please. Anyway tell me if I should continue. And if you want me to let me know. If no one responds I will just not continue.

These may be shorter or longer depending on how tired or creative I am, so don't be bothered!

I may seem a bit annoyed but the truth is I love writing this stuff. I'm just going through writers block so any ideas and suggestions are welcomed!

Tell me how I did. Is it what you hoped? Let me know!

Here are the district 4 pre-reapings and reapings

Yours truly, Aspen Fae

POV Zale Caspian- pre reaping

Running. Running away. I had never run so fast in my life. I felt fear, like a frost, creeping up me, starting at my toes and slowly crawling up my legs and past my middle. Climbing ever steadily toward my heart. Suddenly I tripped on a root and went crashing to the ground. I turned on to my back and I tried to scamper away when someone appeared. They held a spear in one hand that's tip was coated in crimson blood, steadily dripping to the ground.

"Zale." They said. They came ever closer and the world became cold and I felt as if my shirt were wet. When I looked down blood blossomed on it. The figure came ever closer.

"Zale! Zale!" they raised its spear and shoved it down at my chest.

"Zale! Come on lazy bones get up! It's reaping day!" my eyes flew open and I bolted up, panic tight in my chest. I was soaking wet, drenched with cold water. Breathing hard I got up and my brothers smiled at me.

"Have a nice dream?" marlin, my eldest brother asked. I groaned and threw a pillow at him. He dodged it without problem.

"Just get ready." Ray said. Ray and marlin were both tall and muscular. They both had the same tan skin and sandy brown hair as me. The difference was they were better at everything than me.

"We already beat you to getting dressed." They said as I put on my reaping outfit.

"I see that." I grumbled. I did the last button on my shirt and looked in the mirror. I had on white cargo shorts and a green polo shirt that really matched my eyes. I slipped o my slip-on shoes and we all headed down stairs.

"Oh! You two look amazing." My mother said. My father had already left for work but I knew he'd agree. I just humphed and sat down at the table as my mother put out our small breakfast. No such compliment was directed at me as my mom went on about how proud she was of them and how amazing they were. Anger slowly boiled up inside of me as I was the one who had put my name in that jar to support us. But I was invisible. I slowly got up and was walking out the door when Ray stopped me.

"I'm heading to the square." Ray's face darkened a bit as if he didn't trust me.

"You look like a man with a plan. And not a good one."

"What do you care?" I snapped as I ran out of the house.

POV Destiny Champlin

I looked at myself in the mirror, practicing a face in case I got picked. In case I got picked. Of course I'll get picked. I pushed my thoughts aside as I just let it go. I slipped on my red velvet dress and smiled at myself. The dress stopped just above my knees. I also slipped on my worn out black lace up boots, which complimented my dress very nicely. After failing at some hair styles, I decided to just leave it down. I looked at the dress again and I smiled at the memories of how much simpler life was before that storm had taken my father. Sighing I ran down stairs to say goodbye to my mother when I heard a faint sigh. I crept out to the couch to find her asleep there. Sleep had smoothed out the lines of worry and depression and the dark circles under her eyes. I pulled a blanket up over her and smiling, I walked out the door of our small house.

"Hey there, you just wake up?" I jumped at the sudden appearance of my friend, Ryan. His electric blue eyes danced with laughter as he surveyed me.

"no." I said back as we began walking toward the square where the reaping would take place.
"I got you something." He said. He held out a small package and i gave him a look as I opened it. Inside was a necklace. It was a golden chain with a pearl on it.

"It's beautiful! It must've cost a fortune!" he shrugged and helped me put it on. We held hands the rest of the way to the square.

POV Zale Caspian

I was signed into the reapings and I picked a spot in front. No longer. I refuse to be ignored. I thought over and over to calm my buzzing nerves. Adrenaline pumped through me along with anger and determination. The other kids seemed to sense this and stayed a bit away but I didn't care. I needed to focus. The escort stepped on the stage and gave us a brilliant smile. She had silky white skin and long, long blue curls that dragged behind=d her. She was wearing a Safire blue dress and pumps.

"Hello district four. Are you ready for this year's hunger games? I am excited!" she showed us the video and smiled at us again.

"I love this job! Any way this yea lets go boys first." She was bringing over the bowl.

"I VOLENTEER AS TRIBUTE!" I screamed and ran up on stage. The escort smiled at me.

"My name is Zale Caspian, and i volunteer as district four's tribute!"

I locked eyes with my brothers who were watching. They looked mortified and angry. I gave them a dazzling smile to show I wasn't sorry.

No one will ever underestimate me again!

POV: Destiny Champlin

We got signed in and unfortunately separated. I was on one side of the square and had a good view of the stage. Just then he escort stepped up on to the stage, he long blue curls trailing elegantly behind her. She was wearing a brilliant Safire dress and dumps and she smiled at us. I felt sick knowing she loved the games.

"Hello district four. Are you ready for this year's hunger games? I am excited!" she showed us the video and smiled at us again.

"I love this job! Any way this yea lets go boys first." She was bringing over the bowl.

"I VOLENTEER AS TRIBUTE!" someone screamed and a boy ran up on stage. I felt tears spring to my eyes at the knowledge that he actually volunteered.

"My name is Zale Caspian, and I volunteer as district four's tribute!" he said. The escort smiled and brought over the other bowl. I felt fear tight in my chest and my breathing came fast and shallow.

"And the female tribute for the 250 annual Hunger games is… Destiny Champlin!" I gasped as the crowd parted around me. I slowly walked out into the isle when I heard a scream from behind me. I turned around to see Ryan bust out of the crowd.

"NO! NO!" his cry was cut short as the peace keepers came up behind him and took a hold of his arms, holding him back. I turned back around and plastering on a fake smile I walked up on to the stage, confidently playing at the cool and amazing heroine.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Your tributes!"
