District 3, Mech City (formerly Indiapolis)

  My name is Nokia Button. I am half Japanese, and half English.    I know what day is it today, it's not anything good such as my birthday, or even Earth Day. I'm a It's, however, something rather terrifying. Today is the day of the reaping. A horrible day that will ensure the death of many children of my district. If anything, I want to stop this. I could see on my neighbors faces that they have regretted on rebelling as today may cost the life of their children. This is a Diary I have acquired before the Dark Days has begun. A little notebook so that I can stop "nagging" to them about video game strategies. I had a gaming computer but we have to sell it for more money as we are currently in debt. I spend some of my life there, even though there was only two games, I really like a game mod, the named Pvz eclise and another one named, minecraft. Anyway, I have to go to the reaping right now so what I do is that I take a really cold bath that has a little dirt. Even selling my computer didn't work. I then eat some breadcrumbs, brush my teeth and change into fancy clothes, bringing my diary, my greatest possession second only to my gaming computer. 

          As me and my friend, Chip, the only friend actually, as I get bullied a lot for simply being the smartest in school. I remember being beat up, get trapped in lockers, getting wedgies, it's really enough for me, so enough that I was so grateful for the war, a little space away from them. I'm the only child, and my mother was the biggest android device seller, making me live in great luxuries. That is, before the war struck, the factory was destroyed, and my father was killed at the hands of the Capitol soldiers. I hate the Capitol so much. The bullies greet me, teasing me by tossing my glasses like a ball, making me blind. The mayor, Mr. Tech, hates me, and I'm afraid he might rig the reaping and make me, just a small 14 year old, get reaped. He welcomes all of us, I can see my parents looking at me, and others looking at their child, too. They know someone will be picked. They saw the rules. "Time to pick the tributes!" He exclaimed, as he hated this district. I think that the one who will survive will just be shipped back. Losing will just make you be forgotten to the whole district. "Ladies first" Mr Tech said. "Sonia Newrton!" A 14 year old climbs the stairs and you could tell she was scared. "Men next!" He said. "Nokia Button!"
