First, sorry this is late I got my laptop taken away until I cleaned my room. Second of all thanks to everyone so helped with tributes! Especially HungerGamesLover10210! Sponsor system is now on profile! LOOK AT IT OR tributes will die, but just to let you know all unknown tributes will be filled in for so don't worry about me needing tributes.
Raphony Timplesmith – Capitol
Today is the day, another day where we get to see 25 poor kids my age die. My friends are always excited for this time of year, so much I stand in line with them to get rubber swords. Right now we are walking to the big screens in Capitol to see the reapings live.
"I can't wait to see the reapings!" my friend, Dex, yelled to me. He's flipping his sword miserably, he'll throw it in the air and the sword will land in some lady's hot pink wig. He starts running in his bright blue pants to the sitting area. We finally get to the front where most of the kids sit, since we are both seventeen we sit in the back part. Usually only a few peacekeepers here, but today there are like 50 here, weird.
"If you got reaped for the games, what would you do?" I screamed to Dex, its incredibly loud with all the betting, talking, screaming, etc.
"I don't care, us Capitol people will never have to face that." There's a pounding sound and we look up to the stage where the same lady who Dex stanned is tapping the microphone, her wig is slightly messed up and she's holding the rubber sword in the hand that isn't tapping away.
"Hello and welcome to the 100th Hunger Games! Another Quarter Quell is upon us and what will this year's twist be? If someone will bring me the box we can find out… She glares to the side of the stage when a small boy (no older than 5) runs to the stage with a little box. She opens takes a card then turns the boy around who sets off running off the stage.
"To help the districts remember that there ways have caused the Capitols troubles to, an additional 2 Capitol tributes will be put into the games and to remember that the Capitol provides you with your needs, the sponsors will provide the tributes with supplies." What. Two Capitol children! I'm a capitol children! There are no glass balls with names in it, so how are they going to pick them!
"Well ladies first," The Capitol lady, who I still have to learn her name, looks out into the crowd shock, confused and even crying girls.
"You." She points at a 13 year old with pretty blond curls and way to much makeup on with Dex's rubber sword that is still in her hand. Three peacekeepers come over and drag her to the stage. At first she's confused then, her face turns to a look of mortal terror. The girl starts screaming and attempts to jump off stage quite a few times. They finally settle her down kind of when two very big peacekeepers each grab one of her arms and force her to be still.
"So, what is your name sweetie?" The lady bends over clutching the sword like it's a real one.
"Corna Kingsy." She mumbles, I think.
"Great. Let's choose a boy now. How about you, the lime vest in the back."
There's a rubber sword pointed at me, I'm wearing a lime vest today. Everything goes black.
Corona Kinglsey – Capitol
This is most confusing day of my life. First it starts all happy because I get to see my friends today and now there's two thugs squishing my new pink cone skirt! At first I thought there was some kind of dress code and they were gonna like strip me of my new skirt or something but then, I stopped talking to Tetra and some big peacekeepers picked me up and threw me on the stage! Then some 12 year old in the front row said hunger games, and I lost it. Now I am a Kinglsey sandwitch.
"Great. Let's choose a boy now." Why does that lady have a rubber sword? Creep.
"How about you, the lime vest in the back." I thought Lime vests weren't out in stores yet, must be homemade. The kid they choose is a lot older than me 16 or 17 at most, he froze up fainted right there when the pink wig lady pointed at him with the sword. Then, peacekeepers came, took him to the stage, and propped him up standing with one guy holding him up.
"What's the kid's name?" She asks, a nurse came and took a blood sample, walked up to the microphone and said,
"Raphony Pimpmit no, wait, Timplesmith."
"Well shake hands." I reach over and grab the lifeless hand, pinching it by two fingers only, went up and down and up and dropped it. Well now I have to ask a person what I was exactly chosen for, and get a new skirt.
Holden Sarutobi – District 1
Today is reaping day, the day where in my district people like me volunteer to get fame, money, air-time, etc. Well not me, I'm smart than that, it's been 18 years since D1 came home alive, someone would always outsmart them and boom, they're dead.
Nurses take my blood and I go to the 17 year old section. My girlfriend, Hana waves to me from across the path, I wave back and she blows me a kiss. Only a few months ago I got the nerve to tell Hana I loved her, it and during training I challenged her for a race up the rock wall, she won. I told her that I love her and I really want to be more than best friends and during all my talking she grabbed me and kissed me. We spent the rest of the training day, hiding from the trainers and kissing.
Our Capitol Escort, Honesting, steps up to the mike, he's got quite a clad of colors going on there. Red hair to purple shoes, a nice rainbow.
"Welcome to the 4th Quarter Quell." He's not too excited for this. "To help the districts remember that there ways have caused the Capitols troubles to, an additional 2 Capitol tributes will be put into the games and to remember that the Capitol provides you with your needs, the sponsors will provide the tributes with supplies." No cornucopia, Capitol tributes, I wonder how that's going to play out.
"Let's choose the guy." He lazily sticks his hand in the bowl and yanks out about 15 slips of paper. He takes his other hand and plucks a paper.
"Heathcliffe Sarutobi." What, my little brother? He's only 15!
"I VOLUNTEER!" I scream as about 2 other kids do. I run as fast as I can to my brother.
"What's your name?"
"Holden Sarutobi." Only now I see Hana burst to tears.
Aria Yakushi – District 1
I can't believe he just did that, Hana, my little sister, now in tears and she looks miserable. Hana told me about 2 years ago that she kinda like Holden. When he told her he loved her, she was the happiest girl in world. She excelled in everything since then, training, school, and even life itself. Now her source of happiness has just been sent to his death when 2 other guys could have gone in instead. The capitol escort reaches his hand in the bowl.
You should volunteer, for Hana's happiness.
No, I'll get killed.
But look how sad she is, she'll die without him.
She'll get over it she's had other boyfriends.
Lie, you know this is her first boyfriend.
I know there are plenty of guys out there who love redheads.
Plus he's been training for 14 years now, Holden will win.
Your 18 though, your capable of killing people. Holden is weaker.
Someone else will protect him.
Before they kill him.
"I VOLUNTEER!"
Wow, this looks a lot less than it did on Word. I'll do 3 or 4 districts next chapter. Now for Questions! PM only!
