I wake up sweating because of my nightmare, "Its here!'' I choke out to myself. thinking I was alone

"Told you to be carful" Zena Says with a smile as Alex is getting me up...

I am dressed ready for the games to begin... Oh crap. I am now in the hovercraft sitting next to my brother crying, "Shh, shh its okay." He tries to soothe me but its not doing much help.

"Five minutes" a voice on the announces intercom.

Five minutes till my possible death. For dads sake, I hope they make it quick and for my sake painless. doubt it.

"Three minutes" The voice declares making me more and more nervous

"One minute until landing, one minute!" Where has the time gone? They normally put a tracker in tributes arms but because I am a capitol citizen I had one put in when I was born as did the other 23 tributes. I grab the ladder leading down and freeze in place. I am being taken to 'The Stockyard' where we go just before the games. I see Alex waiting. Alex? "Your my stylist?" I was expecting tigress or Zena or Lilianda not Alex. Alex nods and points to the food put aside asking in her own way 'would you like some food?' I grab a cracker and nibble

"One minute until launch" the voice comes back I need to distract myself before I have a panic attack.

"Alex why don't you talk?" I ask. What? I am going to die soon I may as well die knowing. Alex opens her mouth and I gasp, "An avox?" She nods, "I'm sorry"

"Thirty seconds, tributes enter your shoots"

I hug Alex and whisper, "Thank you" and walk into my shoot. I wipe my eyes and feel traitor tears I quickly wipe them away but new ones appear and I can feel myself being lifted into the arena. I gasp, "It's beautiful" I say...
