Also I am once again so so so sorry for the wait. Without further ado I give to you the tributes of district 2.

Kevin Firestone's POV

"Wake up sleepy head." my best friend Nick Afterheart screams into my ear.

"Okay, okay I'm up." I want to do something to hurt him at the moment but the Afterhearts have kept me out of the orphanage since my parents died when I was 7. But that's the past. Now, now I'm 15 future tribute of the 34th annual Hunger and I'm living with my two best friends Nick and Angel.

"Come on bro, we don't want to be late." All I do is give him a confused look.

"You didn't really forget? Did you?" After seeing that I obviously don't know what he's talking about he continues.

"Bro, today's the reaping of the 33rd annual hunger games." I let out a small groan before replying.

"Can't it be the 34th already? I don't want Flash to volunteer. It should be me not him."

"Look man, I know you're still upset about the whole volunteer thing, but let's face it Flash is 16 we're 15."

"I'm not still upset but let's trick your sister into thinking I am. Just play along with me when she comes in. Oh and 1st yell at me to get out of bed."

"Alright." I get in bed and he starts yelling.

"Kevin get out of bed."

We wait a few seconds and sure enough Angel walks in.

"Kevin are you still in bed because you're mad about Witherspoon?'

"Don't speak that name in this room." I reply.

"I'll take that as a yes."

"Right before you came in he said he wasn't going to the reaping." Nick adds on.

"You know what I'm gonna do? I am going to make you my signature oats, honey, and cheese breakfast."

"Deal. Now go work on that breakfast."

Once she's gone me and Nick start to laugh. We then both change into our reaping clothes.

Dessen Locklear's POV

"Dessen you need to get up now!"

I quickly bolt up and grumble "What is it this time mom?"

"Dessen it's nothing just the reaping."

"Oh okay."

"It's finally the reaping. The day I see my big sister volunteer and it will give me an excuse to meet Flash." my 12 year old brother Frido says. Frido is 4 years younger than me and can't wait until he can volunteer. Well he's still got a while.

Since I'm volunteering my mom said we have to spend the whole day together. At first we go into the woods to practice my throwing skills and get some food. My weapons are knives and a spear. I'm better with knives, but I'm still good enough with a spear. The 1st animal I kill is a deer. I shot it right in the heart. Frido then jumps onto it and starts stripping the skin and finally beheads it. I think it's sickening but whatever it's meat. Next we start picking edible berries. I'm pretty good at this. Frido is about to pop nightlock into his mouth but then I recognize it. Taking a knife I shoot it into the forest. We then leave the woods to go to my Uncle's house.

My uncle Berinko is the mayor and always is with us on the reaping. He sort of wants to wish us well. He also always buys me a new dress for the reaping. Once we arrive my Uncle hands me a package that must have the dress in it and Frido a suit. He then tells us to go get changed. I quickly go upstairs to my "room" and change. When I see the dress I think it's perfect. The dress is beige, down to my knees, and is loose. It also shows off my long brown hair. Once I have it on I look at myself in the mirror and say to myself:

"Ugly or Beautiful?
Week or Strong?
Fighter or Coward?
Winner or looser?"

Kevin's POV

As the 3 of us make our way to the square we start to talk about how we think the games will go and whether or not Flash'll win.

"I think they should be exciting this year especially since Flash will surely win." Angel says. I don't reply but glare at her.

Once we've signed in we walk over to the 15 year old section and wait. After what seems like forever are escort comes on. My guess is he thinks that he is stylish but if you actually looked at him you'd know he wasn't. His hair was half gold, half silver. Then his body was died gold and silver stripes. All I could do was stare at the ugly man before me. Then he spoke.

"Sup district 2!" Everyone eagerly applauded him. After the applause died down he continued speaking.

"Let me tell you how much of an honor it is to be here today with you all! Happy Hunger Games, and may the odds be ever in your favor. With that said I'll now call the names of the lucky boy and girl who will be representing district 2 in the 33rd annual hunger games! Now I think we'll start with the boys." I can't wait to hear the name.

"Kevin Firestone."

Wait a second that, that's me. I won. I won the reaping. Wait, how come Flash isn't volunteering. I quickly find him in the 16 year old section mouthing the word go. With that I take off to the stage.

Dessen Locklear's POV

Right before we leave I run up to my mom and start crying.

"Mom there's 24 of us. Only 1 will survive."

"Honey you don't need to volunteer."

"But I do mom. We can't keep living in a teeny shack, risking getting shot by hunting. We can't."

"And we won't because you are a big, brave, strong girl and you're a survivor. Just remember who you are and you can't loose.

We get to the square right as our escort Mayo Hanes is reading the boys name. I look over at Flash ready to volunteer. I smile at him and he smiles back.

"Kevin Firestone." I quickly look at Flash and see he's smiling not volunteering but smiling. I then see him mouth the word go. My eyes go back to the stage to see a boy with messy brown hair, and a dark shirt run up to the stage.

"And now for your female tribute. Your female tribute is Granite Smith."

Should I volunteer? Should I?

"I volunteer." I shout

"Well, well, well. We've got a volunteer. Come on up." Mayo says.

As I make my way up I feel all the eyes of Panem on me.

"What's your name?" Mayo asks.

"Dennis, Dennis Locklear." I reply and give a smile. Then me and Kevin are led away to the justice building.
