I'm here! XD Yesterday I was busy so I would've tried to get this out if I could've. The D10 Male and D12 Male spots will be filled today if I do not get a PM after this chapter that someone wants to submit it, and I really will need it in today. Thank you! Something went wrong on the story alerts for me, and if you haven't seen the D3 reapings from 2 days ago, go back and see them.

POV Lillian Robinson

Lillian laid in bed in the little Four cottage that her family owned, looking up at the thatched roof that her father had made just a few years ago once they had moved from inner Four to the outer parts. To be honest, sometimes when there was a lot of rain, the roof would cave in. And that wasn't a happy time for the family.

Lillian had enrolled at the academy when she was 6, her family really proud of her, but having forgot about the fame most of the time. So when Kim, the 18 year old volunteer and Natalie, the 17 year old volunteer both got sick on "accident" she was excited to finally have her turn.

"Lillian!" Her mother called from the room below. "Get dressed, it's almost time to go to the Reaping!"

She could hardly contain her excitement as she slipped on the black dress, taking a deep breath and walked down the wooden stairs that her father had made. The stairs creaked, which was especially annoying when you were trying to sleep. Lillian had already taken breakfast in bed earlier, so all she had to do was wait for her family to get ready. Which wasn't as simple as it may seem.

"Lillian." She heard a small voice from behind her.

"Yes?" She couldn't hide the impatience from her voice, ready to just get moving.

Her youngest sister, Jessica, who was 12 looked at her. "What if I get reaped?" She whispered, looking up at her.

"I'm volunteering this year, so it won't matter either way, Jess." Lillian said, ready to be done with the conversation already.

Jessica started to smile, nodding happily, she was safe for this year. Lillian waited for the rest of her family to join her at the door, ending with her dad leading them out the door.

Lillian took in deep breaths, walking along, wondering who would be the male from her district.

POV: Shad Moana

"Hey, Shad! It's time for breakfast!" His mom, Divea, shouts up at him.

He groans, attempting to pull himself out of his childhood bed, remembering his family's request to stay with them, instead of his fiancée.

"I'm coming!" He replies, smelling the putrid odor of tuna and egg salad wafting up to his bedroom.

He stretches his tired muscles and calmly walks downstairs, and sits next to his older brother Niall. The family is silent, with most having a dismal look on their faces, except their father, who is brimming with pride.

Probably because his Career is volunteering this year.

Of course, Shad feels a little bit of regret, mostly towards his newly engaged fiancée, Naima.

'What if I don't come back?' He wonders in his head, but he knows it the right thing to do. He'll get both families a lot of money when he wins, so that perks him up a little.

"Ready to volunteer, sport?" His dad, Gaige, grins at him.

Shad nods. "Ready to bring back the crown!" He replies, just to quell his dad's burning 'Career parent' desire.

If Dad would stop living through me, maybe I'd be a lot happier to volunteer. He thinks in his head, but he stays silent, finishing his tuna and egg salad.

"I'm going to go train." He says, hugging his Mom and younger sisters.

"Kick ass, Shad!" Laughs his younger sister, Aliana, who is a lot like their dad.

"Just come home to us, okay?" His mom whispers. "I know you're good, just don't overthink things, okay?"

"Got it, Mom." He whispers, kissing her cheek.

He then exits his house, heading over to do some quick training before meeting with his fiancée. Thankfully, Naima wasn't selected to be the volunteer. To be quite honest, she is kind of a klutz, and could barely handle a trident, let alone other weapons. Once he arrives at the center, he greets some of the trainers, who are training some younger kids, probably 10 or 11. They all stare at him in awe, as he heads into a changing room to change into some workout gear.

"Ready to go?" His trainer, Bryce, claps him on the back.

"Totally, ready to win." He told him.

After he trained for about an hour, he quickly left and realized he didn't have time to go find his family or his fiancée, because the Reapings would be starting in approximately 10 minutes. He dashed out of the training pavilion and ran towards where the Reapings would be held. As he got his finger pricked, the escort was beginning to talk about the long winning history of District Four.

Soon enough, it was time for the Reapings to commence. The girl's name was selected, and it was an 18 year old, but the volunteer he hadn't known was volunteering. "Your name?" The escort asked the girl who had volunteered.

"Lillian Robinson."

Next they walked over to the boys' bowl and plucked out a name. He chewed his lip as a 13 year old started to mount the stage. The money, it'll be enough to support a family. "I volunteer!" He shouted and took the place of the boy who looked relieved. He stood beside Lillian and made eye contact with his family, nodding silently.

"Your District Four tributes!" The escort said.

Alright just three reapings to go! 11 should be up later today, but maybe tomorrow if I can't. Thank you stuckathomebgs for Shad and theflowercrowns for Lillian. I may have altered both tributes a bit to make them more realistic c: Good luck and may the odds be ever in your favor!
