The 100th Hunger Games

District 3 Reaping

Nina Creyg's POV
I woke up with my head in a puddle of sweat. It's okay, Nina. Just a nightmare. I glanced at my little sister, Naomi. She was still sleeping, like an angel. In my nightmare, Naomi got reaped and she was sent to her doom. I was confident she would be safe, because there was only two slips of our family. One for me and one for Naomi. I woke her and told her to put on a nice dress for the Reaping. We walked down to our mother's pancakes. After breakfast, I got ready and my parents, Naomi and I walked to the square for the Reaping. A woman with red hair was our escort. "Hello, District 3! I'm Ruby Ember, your escort. For the 4th Quarter Quell, one family member of each tribute will be placed in the arena as well. Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favor. Now, the female tribute." She grabbed a paper. "Nina Creyg!" I freeze. A Peacekeeper has to pull me up to Ruby. "Now, the male tribute. Peter Ekan!" A blonde boy walked up. "Naomi Creyg!" No! Not Naomi! Anyone but her! "Pietra Ekan!" I heard Peter muttering, "Pietra!" "Your tributes!"

Peter Ekan's POV

Later, at the Reaping, our escort, Ruby Ember, said, "Hello, District 3! I'm Ruby Ember, your escort. For the 4th Quarter Quell, one family member of each tribute will be placed in the arena as well. Happy Hunger Games and may the odds be ever in your favor. Now, the female tribute." They called Nina Creyg. Poor Nina was so nervous she froze on the spot. I heard my name. They pulled the one slip with my name on it. I walked up in utter disbelief as I realized that Pietra would be a tribute as well! Why? Why, sweet, innocent Pietra? She's done no wrong! I muttered, "Oh, Pietra..."
