Dream SMP : The Hunger Games

The reaping : part 3

Tubbo POV:
Oh god. Today is the day I have been dreading all year. The day of the reaping for this years tributes. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it all week nothing can distract me not work ( I work at the market selling my family's homemade pastries and treats), not hanging with my bestie Tommy or anything. Well I sorta forgot when I was looking after my bees but then again my bees always calm me down so that is no surprise.

Today started out as any normal day with me, lani and teagan ( my sisters) helping mother out in the kitchen making treats but they weren't for me to sell but to give to the infortuante families of the tributes. But then I had to go get ready for the reaping. I got washed and showered and then I put on my best clothes which are a green button up shirt and some formal smart jeans with my black high tops.

Then I met up with Tommy at the end of the lane and we walked down to the centre just in time for president Jacobs to have finished his speech and for him to pick the first tribute. In the centre you could here a pin drop as people waited for the unlucky soul to be chosen hoping it was not them.

"And the first tribute for district 4 will be...
Tom Simons"

No no no no. This can't be happening. It can't be tommy it just can't. He doesn't deserve this fate. This signiture of death. He's supposed to be safe. He's supposed to be home someone constant and forver there not gone to never return. I have to do something I can't let him go alone.

"I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!"

I stood in shock at the words that just cane out of my mouth. But then again I knew what I had done had been so I would never be split from Tommy we were a duo never to be apart no matter what.

"And what is your name yound sir?" The president inquired.

"Tubbo Underscore-Dearest sir."

"Well, good luck Tubbo you have made a descion not many make you either very brave or very stupid and for your hope I hope it is the former"

"And so here we have the two tributes for district 4: Tom Simons and Tubbo Underscore-Dearest and may the odds be ever in their favour!" He announced to the crowd and cameras before us.

"Tubbo you utter idiot!" Tommy sobbed at me. "Why the hell did you do that?"

"I did it for you Tommy. For us. I couldn't let you go to the arena alone to fight knowing there was a 95% chance you wouldn't come back. Of one of us goes so does the other your like my brother Tommy I can't live without you!"

"What about lani and Teagan?"

"They'll survive they always do. They have work with the treat stall and we have people looking out for us. They'll iderstand why I did this and to be honest we were expecting one of us to get picked sooner or later so we were prepared."

"I just hope your right Tubso cause this is going to be a hell of a journey that neither of us may come back alive from"

"Well we've still got each other no matter what Tommy we're both here for each other. Friends forever..."

"Stick together"
