Moments after District Five's Reapings. Cloudy. The Hall of Justice. Lucia Terrance. 

I stand alone in the Mayor's Room, with my fellow tribute, Albert Gordon. We have been here for one hour and almost going to the train. 

- Albert, why did this happen? Why did we got reaped? Do you think we will survive?

- I really don't know Lucia. The thing is, this is the First Hunger Games. What the Hell do we know?

- Nothing really. Death is the only thing we have secured. 

- Definitely Lucia. And I'm scared. I'm too young to die - he starts crying, so do I. 

Suddenly, our escort, Joel Destiny, arrives. 

- Well guys, to tell you the truth, I'm pissed off with these games. They are destroying you. But, I'm sorry, nut we have to go to the Capitol. 

So, in that same moment, me and Albert move and we travel to the Train Station to go to the Capitol. 

Inside the Train. District Six's Reapings were done. Sylar Bennet and Piper Hudson. 

Me and Piper have never talked before. She was very popular at school until this shit was instituted. I was a Senior in my High School, but of course, there is no more High School. No more life, no more youth. I know that I don't have any probabilities to survive. When Lumber Bravo, our escort, called out my name, my world crumbled and fell. But, he said something true:

- The Capitol is a menace. is a system that will get destroyed. Is easy to destroy. There is always a Flaw in the System. 

Finally, Piper and I talk:

- So Piper, what do you plan on doing for The Games?

- I don't want to talk about that Sylar. I just miss my family already and I won't see them again. I know I'm weak and I will not survive. 

We stay quiet for half an hour when the train stops at District 7. 

Cloudy. District Seven's Reapings. Amy Schuester. Escort.

- Welcome one and Welcome all. Let's have the Reapings. 

I hate what I'm doing but it's the only way to save my family back at 8. 

- The Female Tribute is: Star Gordon. A heavy girl, from the 17 year old's come to the stage and she sits quietly. 

- The Male Tribute is: Shane Mason. I knew he was the Son of the Senator. It's really hard for him to be here. And now, he was reaped. Great combination of factors. 

I take them both and go to the Train Station, where the train just arrived. 

Foggy. District Eight's Reapings. Nana Berry. Escort. 

- The Female is: Rose Pinetree. 

The Games are deceitful. The girl is hurt and sick, but the Capitol doesn't give a damn. She is only 14 years old.

- The Male Is: Elliot Rose. 

He has 12 years old and he is hurt emotionally. 

We get in the train and I understand later that, Elliot was like that, because both his parents died yesterday in a accident in the Factory of Textiles. 

He is very shy. 

The Games will need to end.
