As we walk to the justice building I can't help think

What if I get called

I'm to young

Will lily help me

Will I die

"Olivia ," my mom says snapping me out of my thoughts "it's your turn"

I hold my hand out to the peacekeeper. she pricks my finger with some kind of needle and sends my to stand with the kid my age. Then our mayor comes out

"Lady's and gentlemen I would like to welcome you to the 1st annual hunger games and may the odds be ever in your favor. Now please welcome heem."

A lady walks onto the stage she has bright pink hair and wears a dress that looks bigger then my house.

"Welcome, welcome welcome! now we shall watch a film brought to all the way from the capital!" heem says

-after the film-

"Now ladies first!" she walks over to the glass ball and pulls out a card

Please not me please not me. I think to myself

She walks to the center of the stage reads the card

"Mya mellark" my sister

She slowly walks to the front of the stage and I start to run I know I'm only 12 years old but I can't loose her

"I volunteer!" I scream

"No, Olivia don't."

"I have to. that's what sisters are for right."

I walk towards the stage to take my place knowing I'm not come ing home.
