Thank you to the guest who correctly answered where my District 8 characters are from! I don't know who you are, but I already like you! Today is my #1 fan's birthday, so since she is turning 14 I'm going to try the impossible challenge of writing 14 chapters tonight! Wish me luck! Now here are the District 9 Reapings!
D9 Male- Joel Grasher (16):
I wake up with my girlfriend cuddling me. I push her off and scowl at her when she wakes up. I slap her in the face and say "What the hell were you doing? Did you really think you can touch me without my permission?"
"I'm so sorry Joel!" she sobs.
"No sorry accepted this time! You're gonna pay!" I bark.
"But the Reapings!" she cries.
"Fine," I mutter. "But after them, you're gonna get it!" I force her up off of the floor and we put on our Reaping clothes. I grab her hand and she flinches. She won't leave me because I told her I would kill her if she did. She lives in fear, which I greatly take advantage of. We get to the Reaping and I see her friends, but tighten my grip on her to let her silently know that she will NOT leave my side. We look up to the stage to see Paulie, our Capitol attendant climb the stage. He is wearing all red and looks like he's on fire. He says "HAPPY HUNGER GAMES!" and walks over to the guy's bowl. He calls the name and I want to hit my girlfriend so badly.
"Joel Grasher!"
D9 Female- Emily Canton(15):
I walk into town with my pack of wolves by my side. I have loved nature since I was a child, and have learned how to communicate with most animals efficiently. It helps that I have grown up in a tree house my parents built for me. They even went as far as letting me sleep in it whenever I wanted to. At school, while I was bullied as a child, when I made friends with my pack of wolves it all stopped. I guess the kids thought I could have them mauled at any second. Not that I would ever do that. I love my wolves too much to see any of them possibly get hurt. I go into my age section at the Reaping, a path opening up for the wild child. My wolves stay by my side, and growl at anyone who tries to come near me. I calm them down and look up to the stage. The escort, Paulie, is standing at the guy's tribute bowl. He calls out the name Joel Grasher and I faintly recognize it. I realize that he was a former bully of mine, and it took a bite to the nuts by a wolf to get him to leave me alone. Paulie walks over to the girl's bowl and pulls out a name.
"Emily Canton!" He says. My wolves recognize my name, somehow sense danger, and start to howl. Paulie looks startled and cringes when I walk to the stage with my wolves in tow. He's already scared, and he hasn't even met me yet.
D9 Male- Joel Grasher (16):
When I win, my girlfriend is gonna pay for this. I know that she has something to do with my name getting called. I don't know how, but I know she did. I scowl as I watch Paulie go to the girl's bowl.
"Emily Canton!" he calls. I hear wolves howl and cringe. It reminds me of the time that one of her wolves bit my precious jewels. Great, I'm going into the arena with the Freak of Nature. I want to kill her in the arena now. Just so I can come home and kill her wolves, too.

I chuckle to myself when I see Joel cringe. He obviously remembers our little "encounter". My wolves follow me up the stage and try to attack Paulie. I whistle and they automatically back off, but I can see the hate and hurt in their eyes. I swear, these wolves are smarter than the Capitol citizens. They all lay down at my feet (there are 7 of them) and Joel has an evil glint in his eye. I can tell that he is already planning my death. I guess that I'll just have to kill him first.
