Lucius Malicray, District 1 Male, 18 -

Evandrus waved at the crowd and they cheered again as Alina left the stage.

"Next, we have the boy from District 1: Lucius Malicray!" he said, and the crowd began cheering again.

Taking a deep breath, Lucius ducked his head and speed-walked out onto the stage, dressed in a silver suit. He took his seat next to Evandrus.

"Well, Lucius. How are you?"

"Fine."

"Do you know why you were voted in?"

"They think I killed the mayor."

The crowd gasped at this sudden revelation.

"You killed the mayor?" Evandrus asked, surprised.

"No. But they think I did."

The buzzer rang.

"Unfortunately, that's all the time we have for Lucius!"


Brea Schofield, District 3 Female, 12 -

"Brea, it's good to see you!"

"Likewise."

"How are you feeling about the Hunger Games?"

"I'm nervous, but I think I can pull through and win."

"Well, confidence is always good. What skills do you have?"

"I'd rather not reveal them in front of all of my competitors, so you'll have to see."

"I hope we do! Who's rooting you on back at home?"

"My family, obviously."

"Are they sad you're going into the Hunger Games?"

"Of course. We're really close."

"How do you feel about the Capitol so far?"

"I like it. It's very beautiful. I hope I get to see it again someday."

"That would be nice, wouldn't it? Anyway, that's all the time we have for Brea!"


Sawyer Cashiel, District 5 Male, 17 -

"Sawyer, how are you doing?"

"Fine. A bit nervous."

"About the Hunger Games?"

"Yes."

"Do you know why you were voted in?"

"Um… not really."

"No? You can't think of anything?"

"Nothing comes to mind."

"Alright. Well, are you confident?"

"No."

"Okay. Is anyone rooting you on at home?"

"No."

"Not even your family? Do you have a family?"

"I have a family but they don't really pay attention to me."

"That's too bad. Maybe if you win, you'll get the attention you deserve, huh?"

"I hope."

"Well, it was nice talking to you, but time's up!"


Holly Amberson, District 7 Female, 18 -

"Hello, Holly."

"Hello."

"Let's kick this interview off with your impressive training score. An eight is very good, especially for someone not in one of the Career Districts. What did you do to earn such a score?"

"Well, I'm a lumberjack back in District 7…"

"So you have experience with axes?"

"Yes."

"Well, I guess that explains it! It's lucky that you have such an early advantage, huh?"

"I guess. But strength doesn't always lead to good things."

"What do you mean?"

"I was voted in by my District only because they thought I'd do well and stood the best chance."

"That's too bad, but are you slightly flattered?"

"No. Mostly mad."

"Well, that's fair. If it makes you feel better, I think you'll do well, as well. Unfortunately, we're out of time. I wish you the best of luck, Holly."


Bran Torrance, District 9 Male, 17 -

"Good evening, Bran."

"Hello, Evandrus."

"Are you excited to be here?"

"I don't know."

"You have some mixed feelings about the Hunger Games, huh?"

"I don't know."

"Well, you got an excellent score in training: a nine! How did you manage that?"

"I don't know."

"Really? You don't even know that? Well, did you demonstrate your usage of weapons?"

"I don't know."

"Do you know anything?"

"I don't know."

"I guess that's a no. Well, we're almost out of time, Bran, so it was a ple… it was interesting talking to you! Good luck in the arena!"


Zara Benedict, District 11 Female, 17 -

"Zara! It's nice to finally talk to you!"

"Likewise. I'd never imagined I'd one day be speaking to the great Evandrus Dictrine!"

"Oh, you're making me blush!"

"You still look nice."

"Aren't you charming? Well, are you nervous about the arena?"

"I suppose. But I'm sure it will all work out in the end."

"Do you believe in fate?"

"No, but I believe that if I keep my chin up and my eyes on the prize, I can manage to win!"

"That's a good attitude to have about the Hunger Games! Are there any messages you'd like to send to anybody back home?"

"Yes! 'I'll see you soon!'"


I know these were kind of short, but I seriously hate writing interviews and I don't know anyone who actually enjoys reading them, so… I kind of charged through.

Anyway, the Bloodbath is only two chapters away, so you should remember to review. Now is more important than ever! If you don't review, I'll probably kill off your tribute in the Bloodbath, even if they're popular.

Since no new additions were made to the alliances, I'm not going to include the list this chapter.
