Effies pov:
It was almost starting again, the hunger games. My job as an escort is to escort the children that were reaped. To their death. Ah, have i mentioned i'm not doing this alone? I'm doing this with the only survivor from district 12. Haymitch Abernathy. Hes so.. well.. haymitch. Ah, there he is

I see someone stumbeling up to me, and i know who it is. Haymitch Abernathy.

"Hello Haymitch" i politely say.
He just looks at me and walks away.
Ugh. I couldn't blame him though. Because today was the day, i'm gonna reap new children for the hunger games

Haymitchs pov:
Its almost time again for the hunger games. As the only living survivor from district 12, i need to mentor these kids. To their death. I'm not doing this alone though. Effie, the Escort. Is my eh.. "partner" atleast that's what we call it.

I stumble up the someone and see who it is. Its Effie.

"Hello haymitch" she politely says. I drunk to much, so i just look at her, she looks kinda pretty and then I keep walking.

Effies pov:

It's time, i'm standing there. Waiting. I look around, to my suprise haymitch isnt here yet. I decide to continue. Then he stumbles up stage. And HUGS me! I barerly manage to get him off me. Hé falls of the stage hits his head and passes out, now i was kinda worried. Is he okay? I decide to look. But then i realise we are on live tv, if snow sees me care about haymitch he will probably kill us both. So i decide to continue.

"Ladies first"

I walk towards the globe, then i had it, i had a card with a name on it.

"Primrose everdeen!"

A small girl who looks terrified starts to walk towards the stage. I hear people being mad. Ofcourse, she 12 i guess. She will never make it. But then all of sudden, i hear someone scream.

"I VOLUNTEER! I VOLUNTEER AS TRIBUTE!"

eh..? Was my first thought.

"Ah, i guess we have a volunteer!"

The girl walked towards the stage, while i assume is her sister starts screaming and crying, shes taken away by a boy. The girl arrives at the stage.

"Well, whats your name?"

"Katniss everdeen" she answers, while looking at the ground.

I start asking her qeustions, everyone Just looks at her. Then i'm left at the stage clapping alone.

"And now for the boys" i walk to the other globe, and then again i had it, a card with a name on it.

"Peeta mellark"

A strong looking boy walks to the stage.
These were our two Tributes for this year. Then i suddenly realise. Were is haymitch!? He wasnt on the ground anymore.. whatever. I would look for him later.

"Shake hands you two" I smile and look at them.

They shook their hands.

Here we go again. Happy hunger games. And may the odds be ever in your favor!
