I meet my stylist and go into a plane thing and someone sticks a needle in my forearm. They say it's a tracking device but I don't understand why I need to be tracked in the arena because I know it is an enclosed space.

(Time Skip)

I wait for when it's time for me to go onto my circle and go into the arena. Then someone says that it is time for us to go. I asked an hour prior if I could style my own hair and I did so. I put it in pigtails and made each pigtail into two braids so I have four braids in my hair. When I get on my plate I put my hand on the hair tie on one of the braids, this is all part of my plan. As the plate rises up I take the hair tie out and get it in a sling-shot position. When I enter the arena I take a quick look around to see a forest behind me. I only have 60 seconds. I shoot the hair tie at the feet of another tribute and they immediately blow up. I see shocked faces around me. Then I hear Harry shout "GOODBYE!" and he steps off his plate blowing up also. 'Two down, 21 to go.' I think to myself. Then the gong sounds and I run as fast as possible to the cornucopia. I see people killing one another as I slip a bow and arrows, a sling-shot, and 14 throwing knives. 'This will be fine for now' I think as I run into the forest. I climb a tree that seemed a decent height and hid till I heard the cannon. I hear 17 cannons, that means that 17 of us are dead. The kid that I blew up, Harry and 15 others, I will find out soon enough who they are. '17 gone, 6 left to kill.' I think as I look at the sky. I see the faces of who died. A boy from 3, the girl from 3, a boy from 5, the girl from 5, a boy from 6, the girl from 6, a boy from 7, the girl from 7, a boy from 8, the girl from 8, a boy from 9, the girl from 9, a boy from 10, the girl from 10, a boy from 11, the girl from 11, and lastly Harry; a boy from 12. 'So just me and districts 1, 2, and 4. District 12 against the careers.' I think. "To the careers: May the odds be ever in your favor." I say into what I believe is a camera, I do this to show the capital - to show the districts - that I mean business, although they probably already know that. I look around and see a small smoke trail in the distance. I hide in the tree branches as I see the career camp at the cornucopia. I smirk and draw back an arrow. I made a little song to sing as I was waiting for the faces to show up. "La la la la, time for you to die. La la la la, time to say goodbye." I sing in an eerie voice. I see that they heard it and were looking at the trees trying to find me. I'm still smirking as I let the arrow go and hit the district 4 boy squair in the heart. I hide in the trees and run, still sitting in the branches. I hear a cannon and know that was my work. I fall asleep in the tree branches and think; 'What is my family thinking about me right now? Do they think I'm a monster?'
