"By the way, my name is Matthew Williams." Matthew whispered in my ear and I continue to smile at him. 

"I like your name," I said and he chuckles. 

"Well, thank you." Matthew said and the two of us go towards the couches to sit down and relax for a while. 

"Well, while we wait for Haymish to wake up, do you want to tell me what you do?" Matthew asked and I look at him. 

"Well, I am a very hard worker. Every morning and afternoon, occasionally at night my best friend and I, we go out of the district into the woods to go hunting to make sure our family hadn't starved to death... Sometimes I go to the black markets or I just go to the bakery to see my other best friend Elsa." 

"Wait, Elsa Snow?" He asked and I look at him smiling. 

"Yeah, Elsa. But at home I usually do the cooking and the chores around the house." I said and he chuckles. 

"And why are you chuckling?" I said giving him a death glare. 

"I'm laughing at Haymitch." He said pointing to Haymitch who had started to wake up angrily and started to death glare at Matthew. 

"Who the hell are these two?!" Haymitch said pointing at Matthew and I and Effie looks at him disgusted. 

"You idiot, these are your district 12 competitors for this year." Effie said and he looks at me smiling evilly. 

"I know you, your the one who volunteered for your sister..." He said as he walks over to us. While he walked over to us, I noticed that his hair was grey and it was long nearly up to his shoulders, he had a grey shirt on and his pants were a dark grey, but very daggy. 

"Yes... I was the one who did... But she didn't deserve to go into the hunger games, shes to gentle." I said and he nods, agreeing with me. 

"Yes, but hopefully while your in the hunger games, the capitol won't kill them... that was what happen to me with my parents, my little brother and my girlfriend..." He said starting to scrunch up his fists in anger. 

"Why did they kill the one's you loved?" Matthew asked and Haymish looks at him annoyed. 

"It's none of your business kid..." He said while walking over to the table which had alcohol on it. 

"Your not all that bad, you know." I said and Haymish turned around. 

"What do you mean exactly sweetheart." He asked and I smile sadly. 

"You do have a heart." I said and he chuckles. He is lucky that he survived the hunger games... Because Alex didn't... nor even my father with trying to protect her. 

"And I am guessing you only want to cheer me up?!" Haymitch yells while putting his glass down. 

"Your not the only one who lost someone because of reasons from the hunger games!" I scream at him and he looks at me for a minute. 

"Who did you lose?" Haymitch asked and tears started to roll down my cheeks. "My sister, Alex Hofferson... She was in here 2 years ago.... She died near the end of the games..." I whisper loud enough for Hamish to hear and he sighed. 

"She was a great kid..." Hamish said and I just realized something. He mentored my sister!

"Yeah... she made my bow which I have at home." I said and he sighs. 

"I reckon you will do great out in that arena, Astrid. Do it for your sister," Haymish said before walking over to the dining room table and he took a sip of his alcohol as I just stay quiet. I still can't believe I am doing this... I really do think that I am doing the most stupid thing in the world, but my reasons are my reasons... 

"So, can you give us any tips?" Matthew asked and Haymish stops drinking his vodka. 

"Yes, the best tip is to stay alive." Haymish said and Matthew crosses his arms. "We already know that, but is there any other important tips?" I interrupted and he also crosses his arms. 

"Yes, make sure you don't do fires at night even if your freezing your ass off." 

"But also, just run into the forest with out any supplies and go back later when it's more quiet, or even make allies." Effie said as she walks into the room holding a glass of water in one of her hands. 

"Alright, but what if you see a little back pack near you, could you attempt to get it?" I asked and Haymish just starts laughing his head off. 

"Your an idiot for doing that, you would just get killed because people would just go for the same bag!" Haymish said angrily and I stand up from my seat, giving him a death glare. 

"At least I'm not a f!cking Alcoholic!" I scream, then I walk away into one of the rooms, trying to calm myself down.

Hey everyone! Here is another chapter for you all! I made it longer from usual! But I have to type 2 chapters before I update the next one, I actually want an extra chapter on my sleeve so I can plan the next one. I know you think it is stupid, but I am only testing it out and see if I like it that way. I have two other books that I am working on so I am not giving you anymore new fan fictions until at least one or two of them have been completed. I hope you guys understand that as an author, I like to have way's with doing my fan fictions. 

Also one more thing, I will be updating a lot of my books started on the 24th November because I am going on summer holidays for 2 months. 

Foreverhttyd.
