Chapter 1: The Nightmares

The tribute from 6 was gaining on me. I was running faster and soon I collapsed because I simply could not breathe. As I thought 6 tackled me to the ground and I knew this was the end. But as 6 was raising his hand to stab me I rolled out of his grasp and managed to knock the knife out of his reach and ran to it, grabbed it, and killed him. I killed another helpless soul warped by this disgusting gruesome game.

I woke up crying tears streaming down my face as I wiped them away I turned on the shower. A warm shower always calmed my nerves. I got dressed, as I went downstairs i saw my 13 year old brother mike downstairs rummaging through the refrigerator helping himself to whatever he liked. "Hey viola, another nightmare?" "yeah," then he came over and hugged me. I love my brother with all my heart. I am all he has now. With my mother dead, from sickness, and only our drunk father. When I won I never let my father even step foot into our home. "Want to come with me to the bakery? "Yeah! I would like that!" "Ok" I said let's go

On our way to the bakery my best friend Brett tagged along and we went to pick up another one of my best friends Gina. I could tell she had a crush on Brett so she happily said yes. When we got there I ordered some donuts and some coffees for all of us. Mike went off with his other friends, so that left Gina Brett and I. We headed back to my house in victors village, flipped on the tv and heard the unbelievable. I was going back in the Games...
