I Do Not Own The Hunger Games!
Akakios Anima[D8 Boy]
I bet every tribute asks themselves why they are in these bloody games. A game that doesn't make since, only to the stupid Capitol people. But I had the bad luck because it was my last reaping but I got picked because I put a lot of tesserae for my family. I have 4 younger sisters and only my mom is alive so of coarse I had to do something and that was it. Then my stylist Maya turns me around, looking up to me because I am tall. She says "Just stay calm and don't stay to long at the Cornucopia or you'll get killed." I nodded. "Don't worry Maya I will just grab something and run away, and no killing unless another tribute comes after me." she nods and ruffles my hair "Good boy, now go on." I turn to the clear tube that would take me to the arena. I walk towards it and walk in it. As soon as I walk into it, it closes on me. I keep my calm like Maya said and then the clear tube went up.
As it goes up I think of my mom and 4 sisters. That's all I can think of. Cherry who is the oldest at 15 and is the tom boy. Isabelle at 13 and is the one that likes to be pretty all the time. Molly who is 10 and is the shy one. And then there was Tori who is 5. She is loud and likes to play all the time. But when we were saying goodbyes Tori was not loud, she knew what was going on and clung onto me while crying. All of them did; seeing their only brother going into the thing everyone fears. Cherry who usually hid her feelings cried into my clothes. Isabelle who didn't like tears messing up her face and clothes didn't care at all when a flood of tears went down her face. Molly just cried and held onto me. Mom hugged me tight to but she was crying to. But I remember when the Peacekeepers came to drag them out my mom had to carry Tori and Molly out while shouting for me. Cherry held onto Isabelle's shoulders and they walked out together. Then I came back to the real world when the sun hit my face. I blocked it with my hands.
It took time to adjust but my vision got used to the sun and I put my hands down and looked at my surroundings. All the tributes around together in a half circle and in the center was the Cornucopia filled with supplies. I looked at the supplies outside the Cornucopia. Everyone is going to go after the supplies outside since it's the easiest way to get supplies. Going inside the Cornucopia is suicide but I am going to do it. The Careers are probably going to go kill the tributes that are outside so they can kill them faster. I looked at the big timer and it was already 45 seconds. Great, but at least my plan is thought up already. I am going to go in the Cornucopia and grab a few things and get the heck out of there. The tributes eye each other from every direction. Seeing who is planning to get who or who to avoid. I am going to savior a memory while I stand on my plate for the last minute. Me and my sisters were around my mom while she was reading a story and then Isabelle interrupted the story. "Mommy are our names special?" she put the book down "Yes sweetie." "Your name is close to God." Isabelle "Who is God?" Mom smiled "He is the savior of the world that many people believed in back in the old world." Isabelle thought about that. I looked at the timer, it said 35 seconds. Next I think about what mom said next. Cherry looked at my mom "And my name mom?" she smiled "Your name means beloved." Cherry smiled and hid a blush. Molly who was very little back then asked "Me mommy?" mom looked at her "Well we didn't look up a name for you but your name is after your great grandmother." she looked at mom and smiled. Then the baby she had in her lap, Tori who wasn't even a year old. "Tori was my sisters name and it means bird." they all smiled at there names and what it meant. I looked at the timer again and it said 20 seconds. Shoot.

I run past a few tributes who were running into the forest and others staying to get as many as supplies as they could into their arms. Before I get to the Cornucopia the boy from 3 is in front of me. He had a spear in his hand. He attacked me, I avoided it and took the spear out of his hands and kicked him in the stomach. He grunted but didn't dare to attack, he ran while grabbed a bag in the process. He was so fast he ran into the forest already, safe from Careers. I hissed while still having the spear. I ran to the Cornucopia, like my original plan was. Right when I got to it a big bodied dark male stepped in front of me. It was the male from 11, Thresh I believe. I clutched the spear in both of my hands while he had a weird curved sword in his right hand and a small bag in his left. I just wanted to get passed him but the fire in his eyes says differently. I went to my right to avoid him but like if he read my moves he goes to my right to and puts his sword into my stomach and then smacks it into my face. Which slashes my left eye, I scream in pain and fell to the ground. Thresh looks at my body and runs away into the forest, safe while I am lying here and going to die. I can't move, my stomach was bleeding so badly and my left eye was flooding blood all over my face. Here I am, face down onto the grass hearing all the screams of dieing tributes. I know I am going to die soon but I want to remember the last part of my favorite memory. Younger Cherry asked mom "So how did Akakios get his name?" all my sisters looked at mom then me. Mom "Well he is my first and only son and your father wanted a fancy name for him." "Our last name Anima means 'soul'. And your father looked up names to combine those two and found 'Akakios' meaning 'Innocent.' Put those two together and you get 'Innocent soul'" my sisters smiled. Then the memory ended. It was true I suppose, I did nothing wrong and my mother always smiled when I did good things or took care of my sisters. She said I would never even hurt a fly, which was true because I don't know how to fight. But I needed to kill to stay alive but I couldn't even mange that. I coughed up blood and my vision was getting worse, it was all blurry and getting darker. Please sisters if you are watching, do not blame yourself. I am to blame for leaving you, me getting reaped and not someone else. If you are crying it is my fault, not yours. I coughed blood again and my then my vision went black and my body is still. I am Akakios Anima from district 8 and I died in the 74th Annual Hunger Games.
