Hello everyone :) I am ready to update. Please read and review if you have the chance.

Discaimer: I don't own Invader Zim or the Hunger Games.

(Heather's POV)

I ran as fast as my legs could carry me. I looked behind me in horror as I saw someone run after me with bows hurdling after me. I ducked and jumped as they miss me. Unfortunately, one jabs me in my right arm. I put my left hand on it in agony as I fall to the ground, leaving the person at a huge advantage to kill me. They finally catch up, and come towards me with their bow and arrow, ready to shoot. I shut my eyes tightly, with warm tears rolling down my face, while remembering my parents, Dib, and Zim…

I immediately sit up, while clutching my covers tightly. I look around to see a familiar room and realize that I'm safe. It was all just a dream.

After a while of calming myself down, I start to slip back under the covers. This was the third time this dream has happened to me. I look outside the window; it's still dark out. Then I look at the time: its 3:30 A.M. No sign of daylight coming soon.

Then, I start to close my eyes and hum little song we always sang at District 12. After a while, it seemed to soothe me even more, and before I knew it, I was asleep. I guess it soothed me enough to stop the nightmare, because it didn't come anymore.


Next thing I know, I awaken to see warm sunlight streaming in through the window. I stretch and yawn, and realize that today the Hunger Games start. I immediately get a queasy feeling, but force myself to shake it off. I crawl out of bed, and get freshened up, and into a pair of clothes. Before leaving the bedroom, I take one last look at it, before shutting the door behind me and going to breakfast.

Surprisingly, no one said anything at breakfast. Not even Effie, which confused me. We all ate in silence, including Katniss and Peeta, while Zim just stared at his food.


After breakfast was over, Effie led us outside, and into a car. We got into it as usual, and went to a different building. This one was big. We got out, and Ariel greeted us. She would help us get situated into suits for the Hunger Games. Not fancy ones, but just plain ones. As we were lead inside, we went to where all the other tributes were. Then, we were lead to the outside where a hovercraft was waiting for us on a platform. Some of the Capitol's best doctors were situated inside. We got in, and the doctors had a syringe with a tracking device inside of it. I stuck my arm out so they could put it in.

"Sir, your arm, please." The doctor motioned for Zim to put his arm out.

"Eh, what is this?" He looked suspicious of it.

"You're tracking device. It'll keep track of where you are in the arena so everyone can see where you are." She replied back.

"You mean, everyone will watch me in these human Games!" He asked anxiously

"Yes. Not put out your arm out so I can put your tracking device in."

"Zim isn't sure if he wants to put this "tracking device" inside of him."

"Well you're going to have to have it in you whether you like it or not."

After a while of bickering back and forth, Zim finally gave in.

"Fine! Zim will have it in him!" He had an annoyed look while it was shot in him.


Once everyone had their tracking devices in, we all sat down in seats and were strapped in. We seemed to stop after we flew for a while and landed on a platform. We all got out, and went inside. Ariel was there for us already. Turns out, she took another plane with the other stylists to get here.

We went Ariel told us to get into a plain black suit, similar to mine back home, for the Hunger Games. We got into them, and were put in separate rooms.

Ariel hugged me goodbye, and wished me luck for the Hunger Games. I waved good bye as the door was shut from behind me.

I went to a tube which would take me up to the surface of the arena when the Hunger Games would begin. I turned around to make sure no one was there. I fished in my pocket to find a familiar golden necklace my mom had given me. I quickly strapped it around my neck and held it tight, and closed my eyes. Then, I went into my tube, and waited for the Gamemakers to raise us into the arena.

Finally, I saw my tube rise, and go up a little while until I saw the light of the bright sun and the sky, and grasses surround my tube and a forest in the distance. The golden cornucopia stood in the middle of us as it held useful supplies in backpacks as all 24 tributes surrounded it in a circle. I stood nervously as I looked around the arena, getting used to my surroundings.

Then, a digital hologram counted down from 60 seconds in front of the Cornucopia for all of us to see. Try to get a head start and run early, you'll get your feet blown up from the land mines hidden in the ground.

I quickly found Zim a few tubes to the right from mine. He seemed confused on what was going on. I hope he knew what to do.

30 seconds left. I looked at all the backpacks on the ground. As much as they could be an advantage, you could easily get killed for picking something up. It's like a trap a bit. I noticed the ones with lots of useful supplies were in the interior of the cornucopia; however, the ones with not many useful supplies were scattered about away from the cornucopia, some close to the woods.

10 seconds left. I noticed a metallic drone started to count down from it.

"3, 2, 1" The counting stopped, and then another voice boomed out, the host for the Hunger Games.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the 105th Hunger Games!"

Immediately, the hologram disappeared, and we all ran out.

This nightmare has been going on for a long time.

However, the Hunger Games have just begun…

Well, that's another chapter done. Please review.
