Okay, so pretty much the same A/N as last time, but...So sorry I haven't updated in forever! I've been pretty lazy. I'm so excited for the Games! But they can't start until I'm done the interviews… so I'm going to shut up and write now…. Njoi!

Interviews: District Ten

Sisco Perry's POV

"Ah, who's up next? Kaeit Grey? Kaeit Grey. Come on up!" She does. Her expression shows a shy sweetheart, but underneath I sense a menacing grin, and a girl who will do anything to get home. This aura is only given off of certain people. They all want to go home, but only a few actually have the power to.

"What were your younger years like, Kaeit?"

"Not much different from anyone else who grew up in Ten. You know, learning to round up the cattle, train the dogs, shut the coral gate before they can escape again. What was your childhood like, Sisco?"

Wow. I've never had to speak about myself before. I've heard that Ceaser Flickerman had to a couple times, but not me. But, if I'm going to be interviewed, I might as well milk it for all it's worth. I put my forehead on the skin between my thumb and index finger and sigh dramatically. I shake my head, like I don't want to talk about it, then say the one thing that will ensure I will not be able to stay silent.

"Oh, that's a touchy subject." That's all. The crowd goes wild. Kaeit leans in and says, "Please? We're dying to know our interviewer."

"Oh, okay." Cheers. "When I was young, my father was a doctor. He was never home," sighs. I see some eyes well up. I sniff for an added effect. "Yeah, and my mom, well," I pause and think about whether or not I should say she was a drunk. She was, and my father was really a doctor, but they both loved me and raised me well. They spent plenty of time with me. Both my parents are dead, but my aunt isn't. And I'll probably get an earful if I say anything like that about her sister.

"She was great. She tried her best to raise me on her own, and did a pretty good job. Don't you think?"

"YEEEEEEESSSSSS!" the audience yells. I need to spice it up a bit, but I really don't know how to without pissing off my aunt. Luckily, Kaeit saves me.

"So, what about your personal life? Is there a special lady out there?"

"Um, I can't really say-"

"TEEEELLLLL UUUUSSSSS!" the audience screeches at the tops of their lungs.

Great. Now I'm going to have to make up someone. No, I can't. They'll want to meet her. Wait, that's it! I'm brilliant.

"Fine. She's a cute little gold girl. I met her at- uh, on the street. We talked for a while and I invited her back to my house. She spent the night-" Shrieks. I don't know how long this lasts. But apparently I have a girlfriend.

"What's her name?" There it is. The question I've been dreading. There's still 30 seconds left of the interview. Maybe I can stall...

No. They demand. I make yet another ingenius comment.

"I don't know." Rrrrrrriiiinnnnggg!

The crowd is going wild. I can't hear the next interview. But they finally calm down for Katryna Aden's interview.

She begins to talk about her past.

"Both my parents are alive. Not really any sob stories to tell. But you're life sounds pretty interesting."

Ugh! I hate lying. I really do. But I can see she's going to be no help at all. So I go on about how I won the "best dressed" award in elementary school. This is good. It was so long ago, no one will remember the truth. Then I call up Blane Audy, the first boy.

His words are kind of in a blur, but he's definitely trying to be dangerous. Then it's time for Greope Kinnely. I sort of space out. Then Leo Decar tells stories. They range from a childhood injury to his first kiss. The audience is mesmerized.

I know this one is short. The next one will be too, but then it's the Games! Hooray! But I promise not to make them too short that we don't learn about the characters. I WILL include all the background info you origionally gave me in the tribute submission.
