Chapter 4

Rip's P.O.V.: The Reaping

"Rip!!" "Wait!!! THE Rip!?!?!?!?!?"" Oh My Gosh!! Rip!?!?" " Rip wait I HAVE to talk to you!!""Rip,Rip, Rip, Rip!!!" "GIRLS!!! QUIET DOWN AND THEN I'LL SPEAK WITH YOU...OKAY?!?!" They then all nodded thier heads and became silent." Okay, good. Now let me get ready for the reaping and then I shall talk with you my lovely fans!" I smiled a big smile and shut the door behind me.

" How was your day Rip?" " Same as usual mom." Then I just left her there in the kitchen/ dinning room and walked upstairs to my room.

I know you're wondering of we are rich or something, and well yes we are. We are the richest family in district 2, the masonry district. And well I'm Rip. The only son of Martieasha(Marty) and Dan Claymore and a celeb around my district. All because of their "good" tough "love"...

But anyway, today, the day of the reaping, is going to be one day closer to becoming the most AWESOME 17year-old EVER. Why? All my life I've trained to win the Hunger Games! To be famous and loved and scary to the other people of the other districts. I.HAVE. TO .WIN!!!

After I was all dressed and ready I got downstairs and out of my house. I spent a few hours chatting with the girls. I met a new one I haven't seen before. She said her name is Terra and the reason she hadn't been near me before is because she finally gave up to her sister that was OBSESSED with me and was dragged here. I don't know why I kinda like her more. "Is it because she isn't obsessed with me?"I asked myself.

It was now time for the reaping after she left." Welcome welcome to the 57th annual Hunger Games! I'm Ratina Breggerett and scince I'm not dead yet, I'm your host this year! Let the video begin!" As soon as it's over it'll be my time to shine!!

"Let's begin with our volunteers!!!!! Who ever wants to go first may." Before anyone else's, my hand shot up first."Does it make me look too excited? Like a little kid who realy wants something, like candy? I can't look like a little kid, I must look like the brave 17 year-old Iam!" I thought.

"Step right on up Mister ugh.." " Rip, Rip Claymore. "" Rip Claymore everybody!!"* clap, clap, cheer!*

" Female volunteers now? Well anyone?" I was SO tempted to say they all want to stay alive to see me when I come back, but I held my tongue on that. I don't know why I did.Then Terra's had shot up.

"Oh, and you miss are?" asked Ratina Breggerett. " I-I'm Terra Hayes mam."

"And Terra Hayes!!" there was little cheering and clapping for her but soon everyone joined in as Ratina Breggerett made both of us step closer to the end of the podium, showing this years district 2's tributes.

As we did so I looked at the parents surrounding the center of district 2 and found my own.My mom and dad were crying with tears of joy. I know they are proud and confident of me. Next to them I saw a poor old lady crying her eyes out. I thought she could be Terra's parent or guardian because she could get in trouble for crying for random kids who volunteered( yep that's district 2).

But whatever. Now I am in the Hunger Games and going to win at any cost! And I mean ANY COST.
