My eyes slowly flutter open, and I turn to look at the bed oppisite mine. My little sister sleeps in it. She is smaller than me, but is very thin and nimble. She had blonde hair, and green eyes. But I can't see them, she has them closed. I swing my legs over the side of my bed, and step down. I lazily sloutch over my sister, and shake her gently. "Kaya, wake up. Time to go." I say.

"Alright." She replies softly. We both quickly get dressed, in smiler outfits. She wears a black t-shirt, and black leggings, along with a worn pine green jacket. I wear a black t-shirt, and grey leggigs, along with my favorite brown leather jacket. I pull on my black combat boots, and pull my dark brown hair into a ponytail, with my side bangs hanging out, covering one of my piercing grey eyes. On our way out I grab my ax, and she grabs her hatchet.

We run through the wooden town of district 7, racing to the woods, like we do every morning. I always win. "KYON WAIT UP!!" My sister shouts from somewhere behind me. I slow down, and regret it, as my sister zooms past me in a blur of blonde and black. I laugh, and follow her. Once we finally get to woods, we both check in with Mr.Oakly.

"Kaya and Kyon Talon." I say to him. He nods at us, and waves us to the woods. Kaya heads off to the pre-chopped trees, to cut off their branches, while I head deep into the woods, with nothing but my ax and a walkie-talkie, hooked to my jacket pocket.

It is cold out here. But I don't mind. I love the cold. I like to pretend that the steam coming out of my lungs when I breath is fire. That I am a long scaly dragon, destroying everything in my path. But I am not. I am just Kyon Talon. District 7. At the mercy of the City of Lights. At the mercy of the reaping.

Kaya is to young to be reaped. Only 11. But I am 17. My name is in there 17 times. It changed. Your name goes in the number of year old you are. And thank god there is no tessere. We get oil and grain monthly.

"Kyon, time to head back." Says Mr.Oakly through the small black device hooked to my jacket pocket.

"Okay." I say. I finish the tree that I'm on, and haul it over to the truck full of the other trees from everybody. I run along side of the truck as it's driven back to civilization. I vear from it, and find Kaya quickly. We run back to our small house, and call out for our mom. She comes down stairs, in normal shirt and shirt outfit. No one in 7 dresses up for the reaping-which is today-because we just don't see the point. Why get dressed for something honnering the death of 23 children?

I shake myself out of the trance that I am in, and grab my sister's hand. We walk to the reaping with my mother, and drunk brother, Benner, close behind. He is 22, to old to be reaped. It is just me. I leave my family, and check in with a peace keeper. I then stand with the other 17 year olds. We stand in scilence until Mercer Reynolds apears on stage. She is a tall lanky woman, who would be pretty. If she didn't work as an escort. We all see her as a joke. This year she had black hair with light blue and gold streaks. She has a band of gold, with gold and blue bead coming down from it wrapped around her head. Her black hair is cut into angler bangs, and perfect shoulder lengh cuts. She wears a gold and blue dress draped around her figure, and high heeled gold sandels. She looks almost regal standing in front of so many sorrowful faces.

"Hello district 7!" She says cheerfully, in her City of Lights accent. "It's time once again for two young men and women to be ofered up as a tribute to the 25th annual HUNGER GAMES!" She screams that last part. "As usual! Ladies first!" She stalks over to the bowl of girls names, reveling a slit in her dress. She pulls a piece of paper out of the bowl, and walks back over to the microphone. She cuts the black tape on the paper, and opens it up. She clears her throught and read clearly.

"KYON TALON!"
