Yay another chapter! Chariot rides are next :)
Lyons Blaine, District 1
My daughter is obviously going to win this. Since our district is first, I got to watch all the other reapings.
Only a few stood out in my mind. My daughter, the District 4 boy, the District 8 girl, the District 3 girl and the couple from 6.
Yep, my daughter has got this.
Piper Loochi, District 2
No! How could this happen?
The reaping continues to play in my mind. The choosing of Star, me running out and then the truth.
I only discovered myself a month before I volunteered for Star those years ago. Teenage pregnancy. Mother pregnant at 18 and still too young so she abandoned me at the community houses.
I will make sure Star comes home if it's the last thing I do.
Cogg Palistin, District 3
I look at my 2 tributes. A volunteer and a fainter. The girl has a spark to her that if cared for, might ignite into an inferno. The boy on the other hand, bloodbath.
"Give the boy a chance Coggs." Cordin pleads.
"He's a good for nothing bloodbath. Forget about him!" I snap back.
"Fine I'll take him." Cordin storms out of the room and I collapse onto a comfy seat.
I have no idea why she wants to waste her time on him. I mean, he fainted!
"Brigid Perrilloux, victor of the 225th annual Hunger Games."
Hey, it has a ring to it!
Kayne Snag, District 4
What a pathetic batch of tributes! No wonder District 4 is on an all time losing streak. Kids these days, forgetting about training and more into hanging out with friends. How pitiful!
The boy was almost in tears at the reaping and the girl looked scared. Scared!
Elisa is trying her best to help them but what the hell does she know? She won at 12 for god's sake, and that was by pure luck!
Screw 'em, Elisa can take 'em for all I care.
Reslie Lyme, District 5
"How stupid can you get! Flipping off the Capitol?" I scream.
"Eff 'em" Ramone replies gruffly.
"Do you not know how bad this is?"
"Now I'm screwed too, thanks." Tobius mutters in the corner.
"The hell did you say?" Ramone launches herself at Tobius.
"Dad don't hurt me!" He squeals.
"Dad?" Tobius quickly looks up at me before collecting himself and running out the door.
Ace Belleta, District 6
Bugs. Bugs. Darkness. Voices.
I can feel my tributes staring at me but all I can feel are the bugs crawling across me.
"Have fun Ace"
The voices continue to mock me and although I can't see them their voices still terrify me.
"No! Go away!"
I swat at the air and run around, foolishly attempting to outrun the everlasting voices.
Tiggy DeHeart, District 7
How messed up can these games get! A 12yr old!
I stare at Tinder Kailiv and I can see in her eyes she's lost what little hope she had.
"I'm sorry. I am so sorry."
Tinders brown eyes begin to redden and I see tears begin to form.
"Come here." I open my arms and Tinder walks right into them.
"It'll be OK."
"No it won't. I'm going to be a bloodbath."
Yep, no hope.
Cotton Bale, District 8
"Can you hold Mike."
The girl looks up at me with a dazed stare.
"Mike?" I ask.
"Yeah, Mike." The girl pulls a fork out from behind her back complete with a smile and a small bow on one of the spikes.
"Oooh, Mike."
Alfalfa Treed, District 9
Oh yay, this time of the year again and already the Capitol is out to get us.
"Why the hell did you punch the escort!" I demand.
"They insulted my sister!" He screams back.
"That doesn't make it OK to punch them!"
The boy storms off but not before flipping me off.
"Cow!" He yells before slamming the door.
I look back to the girl who's trying to look brave.
"Now let's see what we can do with you..."
Hoarse Kyles, District 10
"Please help us." The girl begs.
"Yeah otherwise we're screwed!"
I look at my 2 tributes then back down to my glass of scotch.
"Sorry to say kids, but yes you are screwed."
"Your pathetic!" The boy cries. I jump off the seat in a split second and grab the boy by the neck of the collar.
"Don't you dare call me pathetic."
I drop the boy and he can't seem to control his little smartass mouth.
"Asshole."
I grab him by the back of the shirt and throw him over the couch.
"Bite me." He hisses.
Oh, this should be fun.
Whiley Fischer, District 11
(A/N Now we meet Max's 2nd personality)
"What the hell are you doing!"
"Oh my gosh! Don't judge!"
"Take that off! You might get seen!"
"Men like you are so judgemental!" The boy runs out of the room on a pair of heels and his flowing nightgown causes him to trip.
"What was that?" Rose looks at me in shock and I can't help but smirk.
"I don't bloody well know."
Cherry Pickton, District 12
"You poor things. I am sorry this had to happen to you."
I look at the kids. Theres no hope in comforting them, they're smart kids.
"So theres no hope?" The girl croaks.
"No there is hope. There's always hope." I try to sound inspirational although the girl looks even sadder than before.
"Well we better make the most of this!" The boy pipes up from behind the girl. Chad, I think his name is, tries to encourage the girl and I feel a much needed smile tug at my lips.
Kale Langon, District 13
"Thank god I got a set of fighters this year!"
They both are obvious trainers. Muscular bodies, a determined look and by the way they talk up each other, are pretty good!
"So what's your specialty?" I ask.
"A battle axe. Definitely a battle axe." Says Ramiro.
"I'm great at a spear but I can throw knives pretty well."
"Good. They always have axes, spears and knives." Its obvious how relieved I sound. I hate it when tributes tell me they're equipped with some fancy weapons such as katanas and other unusual weapons.
"Now which one of you will be our winner..."
So it was meant to be impressions but it sort of turned into whatever the heck the mentors were thinking about at the time :3 Read and Review please! It motivates me to write quicker :)
