Chapter 1 - The Beginning

D1F - Sapphire Medura - 18
After all my training, I know I can win this. My sponsors are counting on me, and I will deliver. I can see the boy from 6 next to me, my first kill…

D1M - Victor Opulence - 18
As I make eye contact with Sapphire I see her glance towards the boy on my right, the 5, and realise that if I take out this threat early then I will be one step closer to my inevitable victory…

D2F - Carlotta Bridge - 17
Carlos is two podiums away from me, the only thing in the middle of me and him are the scrawny district 12s. I look at the girl as she shrinks away…

D2M - Carlos Bridge - 16
On one side of me I can see a pine Forrest, and on the other I can see a giant mountain range. I see Lottie next to me (ignoring the cannon fodder from 12) and smile, the games are about to begin…

D3F - Daphne Pixel - 12
I have to make it past the bloodbath.
For Raffi my baby sister.
For Cora and Luce.
For Mum and Dad.
They'll be watching me now, and I'll make them proud…

D3M - Josiah Circuits - 15
I can see a forest ahead, I can also see a bag, a blue bag. I can make that, I have nothing to loose after all.
Well nothing apart from my life…

D4F - Marina Mannix - 18
My training is kicking in as I look around the arena. A mountain range is on one side and a forest on the other, but most importantly I can see the spears glinting in the bright sun. Perfect. The 11 girl is getting ready to run to them too. My first kill is secured…

D4M - Damian Kaimana - 18
I can see Marina sizing up the 11 girl. Of course Marina would think she could take her. All I need is to get my hands on a sword and flower girl will be eliminated from the face of the earth…

D5F - Celina Sparke - 13
As I search the lines for Lisa and Clovi my heart nearly stops. Clovi and her district partner are flanked by the siblings from 2. I see that Lisa is getting ready to run towards her and realise that if I make it out of the bloodbath, I'll be on my own…

31…
D5M - Jamie Dam - 18
With the career boy from 1 on my left I put my focus on running into the mountains. I want to signal to Matt and tell him to do the same but it would risk too much, I guess we'll just have to run and hope to see each other on the other side…

28…
D6F - Jemima Busby - 16
Just as we had hoped me and Teagan were next to each other. I saw her subtly nod towards the trees and half smiled so she knew I understood. There's a bag I can probably grab close by, although I see the tiny boy from 8 eyeing it up…
27

25…
D6M - Levi Tracks - 14
I'm terrified. I'm standing right next to the girl from 1 who's looking at me like I'm her next meal. All I want to do is look to Via for reassurance but then I remember that I'll probably never see her again. Still at least I'm not those siblings from 2…

D7F - Teagan Birch - 16
Jemima looks like she's ready to fight for that bag in front of her, but I've got a better idea. She goes for the bag while I take the kid down. Sure he's 12 and will die as soon as the timer ends but this is the hunger games and I'm not taking any chances…
21
20…
D7M - Oakley Sayer - 17
The 10 boy Matt is getting ready to run into the forest, just like me, he's aiming to grab the yellow bag, just like me. Unfortunately for him he doesn't know that I am going to be the person who kills him. He'll soon understand that that's what happens when you do t let me into your alliance…
19
18…
D8F - Lisa Stich - 13
Now we're in the arena Celina's plan doesn't seem like the best idea. Even so that girls pretty smart and Clovi and I have been following her lead since day 1 and it feels pretty pointless to stop now…
17
16…
D8M - Bobbie Spinner - 12
I can see a bag near me, although the girls from 6 and 7 seem to want it too. But I know that doesn't matter, because as soon as I grab that bag I'll be in my way to becoming the first 12 year old to ever win the hunger games. Definitely…
15
14…
D9F - Mae Lumiete - 14
If the gods my mother loved so much are real, can you please protect from death for a little longer. Let me live to see the wheat fields that surround my home one last time…
13
12…
D9M - Casper Dagan - 13
I hope Maudlin looks away, I don't want her to see her big brother die.
No.
I can't be think like that. I can see mountains towering over the cornucopia. At least I know what a mountain is…
11
10…
D10F - Arabella Daunt - 14
I'm right at the edge, and there a bag near me, all I have to do is run for the bag and scarper. I'm a pretty good climber so I reckon I should just run up the first tree I find. Well maybe more like the 100th, I've got to put some distance between me and the careers…

8…
D10M - Matt Tanner - 18
That stupid boy from 7 really thinks that he can take me, well he'll soon see. Or won't, cos he'll be dead. You honestly think he'd understand that we don't want him in the alliance because he can't fight…

6…
D11F - Poppy Rowe - 17
I'm right up close to the spears, exactly where I need to be. I'm ready for the fastest sprint of my life and there's no way that I won't make it through the bloodbath once I have my hands on my favourite weapon…

D11M - Aster Clematis - 15
While all the tributes are getting ready to run into the chaos I know that it's obviously better to just run in the opposite direction. That's why I want to thank the gamemakers for putting me right on the end, in just the right position to hide in the mountains until I'm needed to claim my victory…
3…
D12F - Clovi Axel - 14
I'm doomed. The gamemakers still haven't forgiven Haymitch for how he won the games and have been taking it out on his tributes the last few years. Of course that means that me and Arian were put in the middle of the 2s so we won't even be able to fight to the death, instead we'll just be slaughtered immediately…
2…
D12M - Arian Smiter - 14
I catch Clovi's eye. We both know what's coming. One of us will be the first kill of the games and the other will follow after. Still I guess I could have had a worse life. Like a life without Nana. I just have one more thing to say before I go…
"Goodbye Nana."

Okay so I feel like I have some stuff to clarify, I wrote this over a year ago for my friends and then a few months back put the first two chapters on here. Now I am aware it bad - like really bad, but I had fun writing it and I recently started again. I'm gonna upload it on here (if I remember) but please try not to judge the first 5 chapters. Trust me they are very shitty, although mercifully brief. Ummm idk how to end this so-
