So here the tributes are just saying bye to their families before going to the Capitol, and there's no Katniss sorry, it's quite short but I'll have another chapter up soon :)


Iris Hound D2

They sent me in here to say goodbye to my parents. I've been waiting 15 minutes now! Why are they keeping me here so long. I mean who do they think they are? I am very important you know. I am the tribute from District 2, I've already made my way through the 1st round and I'm going to waltz in and make it through the 2nd, become the greatest victor ever. I can't wait. Bring it on.

The door opens and my parents trudge in. Why so sad? I'm going to win you know. They're very solemn and aren't talking much but I don't have a clue why, I mean, I'm coming home. Of course I'm coming home. I was the quickest tribute to win the first round out of all the victors. That's got to account for something, right? They leave after about 20 minutes of sobbing and hugging and saying how much they love me. Now I'm ready to go to the Capitol. To fulfill by dreams, and become the greatest victor Panem ever has, or ever will see.

Connectus Jones D3

I'm in a complete nervous wreck, just like I was before the first round, except I'm never getting out this time. I'm definitely going to die. I'm with my father and 5 sisters. I'm telling them they're all going to live long happy lives without me. I'm just telling them to remember me as the loving happy person I was. I hope they can. My father is crying but telling me to try and win, telling me that if I try, I can come home. But I can see in his eyes that he knows as well as I do that I'm never coming home. I'm definitely going to die in the 100th Hunger Games alongside 575 other children.

I've done well though to get this far, into the top 24 and I'm proud of myself. I'm proud of what I've achieved. I have accepted my fate, I just hope that my family's fate isn't as dark and horrible as mine is.

I'm not really saying much to my mum and aunt. We all know that I have no chance of getting out and they both know that it will annoy me if they bring up that I do have a chance, because I don't. And I know that I should be trying to be positive and make myself thing that I can win. But what's the point? There's no way that I'm going to win. There's no way that I'm going to win against these super-careers. One of them will win. Probably the District 2 girl, Iris. She looks strong and is victor quality. If this were a normal year, she would have won. I'm sure of it.

My mum and aunt leave in tears. I don't blame them. I mean at least they will get to live in one of the victor houses for the rest of my mother's life. I'm just not too sure which one of us will be dead first.
