I was wondering if everyone reading this story could review at least once so I can get an idea of who is actually reading… Thanks :D

District 12

Karilenn Cordal

"What did you do?" Cadeia said. She looked awful. Her hair was pinned up in odd places, her eyes had huge bags under them and her face was all scrunched up with anger.

"Nothing." I said trying to ease past her.

"Oh no you don't." She grabbed the back of my shirt and yanked me back. "I did not get woken up for nothing. I want answers now, or so help me i won't send you a darn thing in that darn arena!"

"Really it was nothing….It was just a bunch of us hanging out on the roof." I said. Cadeias eyebrows shot up.

"A bunch of us? How many…uh, tributes were up there with you?" I paused for a moment before answering.

"Twenty one, including Cam." I glanced up at her before returning my gaze to the ground. She was absolutely furious.

"Do you realize what that must have looked like? It looked like….like…Ugh." She turned and stormed away to her room. At least I'm out of dodge. I left the half asleep Cam to wander around and skipped off to my room. I really, really wasn't looking forward to tomorrow morning. Not that I think what happened on the roof today was going to change anything in the way of friendships, but I really didn't want to know what the punishment was. I through the door open to my room and collapsed on the soft carpet. Man, was I tired…. they should have warped my power just a bit….

District 2

Medal Wayne

First day of training. The other tributes are going to get punished…. this day is shaping up to be a good one. I stretched out on my super comfortable bed that was piled high with the pillows I stole from the supply rooms and from my mentors rooms.

I slid out of bed and walked to my closet, grabbing the first black clothes I saw. I dressed quickly, pausing only to look at myself in the mirror. Lookin' good.

I walked quickly out of my room, eager to get to the training room first. The sun poured through the windows, casting the shadows of the freaky looking vases and plants on the opposite wall.

"Good morning Medal." A voice said from down the hall. I looked away from the shadows and saw a smiling Skylar in the elevator.

"Mornin' hot stuff." I said and joined her in the confined space of the elevator. Before the doors were even closed she had shoved me against the wall with a forceful kiss.

"God, your hot in the morning." She wrapped her arms around my neck and stared into my eyes. "You sleep well?"

"Yeah. I had a dream you and I were already in the games. You got to Alexia first though, but I got over it." I said.

"How sweet of you babe." She pressed her lips hard against mine again; running her fingers through my hair. I pulled her closer and wrapped her legs around my waist. Ding.

"Uhhhh….maybe we'll wait for the next elevator. I broke away from Skylar and glared at Jason and Shadow, who were hugging sweetly. Ugh.

"No. It's cool." I said maliciously but I still dropped her legs and scooted deeper into the corner than I already was, pulling Skylar back with me.

"So….crazy night, huh?"

"Actually Skylar and I were the two that had sense to avoid all that drama." I said smugly. Shadow rolled her eyes. I glared at her and she faded into the background. I mean like, literally faded. Thats pretty lame for a career, she should have gotten something cool….like wall climbing. At least that is somehow related to things like spiders. Everyones scared of spiders….

We stood in the elevator in silence until we went into the basement levels.

"Have any people on your kill lists yet?" Skylar asked.

"No, actually. We plan on getting out of this with a clean slate." I stared at Jason when he said this.

"Seriously?"

"Seriously. We aren't looking to kill any of them."

"You do realize what this means don't you?" Skylar said darkly.

"Yes. Yes we do." Shadow said and the crazy pair walked out of the elevator and out of the safety of the career pack.

"Good riddance." Skylar said and strutted out of the elevator, following the district one pair to the training center. What a great start to a great day.

District 2

Vannessa Pruls

I held my breath as an Medal walked past my door; the beeping in my head faded as the danger of Medal did. I eased out of the crevice behind the door and hurried out after him. As much as I didn't want to, I was going to have to face both training and punishment today. What could the punishment be? Dozens of possible theories had bombarded me through out the night, making sleep virtually impossible.

Would they change the quell so then only one could win? Would they take away our rights? Would they take away our victors house if we win? Would they…kill us? The last one didn't seem likely though, it would be a hassle to replace us AND give them alterations anywhere as complex as ours.

I pressed the shiny red button and waited patiently for the elevator to take me down to the…..crap. What level was I going to again? Negative thirteen right? Or was it twelve…..crap. I was going to have to ask the WITCH. I walked sluggishly to wake up my mentor. She was evil in the mornings and very, very deadly; She actually killed a tribute for waking her up in her own games. But, fortunately for me, I'm not in her games, so she can't kill me, but she will more than likely give me hell until she wakes up fully. Around three P.M. How can sleep like she's dead I have no idea.

I peered into the dark cave of her room; barely opening the door. The beeping in my head started faintly, gradually growing louder as I eased into her room.

beep…..Beep…BEEP…..BEEEEP! I shook my head to quite the beeping.

"Krishi?" I whispered. No response. "Krishi?" I poked her cheek. Nothing. I looked around the room for something to wake her up with. Finally find a tape of the games I popped it in and fast forwarded until the first death.

Boom. The canon sounded and Krishi leapt to her feet swinging her knife blindly. "Krishi!" I yelled, ducking one of her swipes as she fell from her bed. It took her a full five minutes to come to her senses.

"What do you want?" She said yawning.

"What floor is the training center?"

"Negative thirteen. Now get out before I bite your face off." She mumbled before shuffling towards her bed and re-passing out.

That went way better than expected.
