4 months before the reaping...

He slices at me quickly but not quick enough. I grab his head and he falls to the ground. Trainer are weak, so weak. I scowled at him and walked off for lunch.

I push my tray along getting almost everything they serve and head off for a table near the trainers. There were people sitting there but they took one look at me and they were off. I have never been a very social person because everyone in District are stupid. All they want is to be in The Games when there are people, like me, who will actually win.

I look over and see a few girls laughing on the table diagonal from me. One of the girls is her. Sapphire Richmonne, my biggest enemy. She likes everyone and is kind, makes me want to throw up.

Suddenly, I here a shout. "The volunteers! They're up!" It was a small boy probably around 11 or 12 and he was near a bulletin board but after almost 2 seconds he disappeared in a crowd of hopeful trainees.

Quickly, I jump out my seat and rush over to the board pushing everyone else out the way. Finally, I make my way to the front.

Volunteer Male- Caesar Gold

Volunteer Female- Morgan Weltere

Ugh! Morgan? No way is she going into the games with me.

2 weeks before the reaping...

I stroke Lily softly, brushing my hand from belly to chin. Lily purrs jumping from my bed and begins to scratch at the door. "Lils! You know I'm not even allowed to have you in here. I could end up being expelled." I whisper, knowing she doesn't understand me but she's all I have.

"Fine, let's go outside." I say giving in to her whimpering.

I push Lily into my handbag and run through the academy, dodging trainers and trainees. I have to pat Lily's head down a few times due to her sticking out but other than that we got out with no interruptions.

I head down to my house, well it's not my house anymore, my Godfather owns it now that my Mother passed away. I hate calling him Godfather! He doesn't deserve such a responsible title. He is Quinius and nothing else. I reach the front door, hesitating before heading on in, I drop Lily at the doorstep and she dashes in.

"Well, well, well. Look who we have here!" Quinius babbles out, stumbling from the kitchen.

As ugly as ever. That translucent skin and bulging red eyes get me every time. "Remember last time you came here?" He says laughing. I do. I reach for the scar that went from my left ear to my collar bone and shudder as I remember that day. "Lily just needed to stretch her legs." I say under my breath but he hears me and slaps me quickly across the face. "Get out you bitch!" He screams into my face as I take in a spell of his breath. Alcohol. He's drunk. "Lily! Come on let's go." I cry, my eyes sting with tears as I grab Lily and rush out. I fall to the ground and lay there.

I am useless and I am nothing.

There are our 2 tributes from District 1! Hopefully I will have District 2 soon.

Who do you think will last longer?

Who do you prefer?

Do you think either of these 2 will get the victory?

Thanks A River Of Ink for these tributes! Could not have done it without you.
