As the day begins, I roll over and fall onto Plum. She flies off the bed, and onto the floor.
"WHAT THE HECK DOGPISS!" she yells at me.
"Oh shut up Plum," I say and I run outside. I fall on my face as soon as I leave the door. Everyday I go to the woods. I love the woods. I meet my BFF Garth there to hunt berries and stuff. However, its kind of illegal. Here in our nation of Panda, we're not supposed to go into the woods...
"Sup Dogsh**" says Garth.
Garth is so funny. The first time we met he was eating a loaf of bread on a rock and I walked up to him. When he asked for my name I said
"Dogpiss.." but he thought I said "Dogsh**." Fun times!
"Hey Garth! You ready to hunt berries?" I say.
He pushes me to the ground and slams his foot into my chest.
"Absolutely" he says with mystery in his voice. I laugh, push myself up off the ground and brush the dirt from my shirt.
"So, what do you think about the Derp Games this year?" I say.
He nods at me,
"Yeah, I think I have a pretty strong chance of winning."
The Derp Games are a form of revenge from the Capitol. They really hate us. I don't even know why. There are 12 districts surrounding the Capitol, each in charge of getting different things for the Capitol. District 12 mines Coal.
The whole point of The Derp Games is to win a series of competitions. There are usually 3 different rounds during one Derp Games. But they change it every year. The losers from each contest are publicly humiliated by the Capitol. One year, a man was duct taped to the side of the Justice Building in his district, and peacekeepers threw tomatoes at him. He was eventually tomatoed to death...
I'm just hoping nothing like that will happen to Garth. He's the most amazing guy in the world!
