As I rise on my platform the cold air hits my face mapping out a plan in my head I see the trees then the cornucopia. The count down begins 10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1 I run as fast as I can to the cornucopia I can barley get threw the snow but some how I make it I grab a bow and some arrows and run to the pine trees behind me. My heart is racing barley able to breathe thinking of my family back home how I must win this for them For all of them I run and I run till I can't go anymore and I colasp un able to breathe slowly walk with my bow and arrow In hand and find shelter for the night

At 6:09 am, I'm still asleep but I feel someone is staring at me. Well, yes. Even though Capitol people thought that morning didn't appear until 11:00 am, my prep-team weren't the same. I told them to stop waiting for me, because I was waking up 'til 9:00am so, they called some muscular guys to move me to my huge bathroom. While I was taking a bath they started telling me I rocked at the parade. At 8:30 they have my leather suit. It was like special for winter season. When getting to the platform room I heard a boy screaming the didn't want to go in the arena. But my stylist told me to not pay attention to him.

When I was in the platform I felt some cold breeze. But when up in the arena it was really cold, for someone not used to you can say it was FREEZING. It was me, or the blizzard but I couldn't see a bit of something. So, I head the cannon Announcing the games had started. So I started running to NOWHERE and then I heard the first cannon, that meant for me the blood bath had started. After half an hour a bright thing. The cornucopia was about 8 meters away form me so I start looking for people could hurt me. So there running through the the snow, I saw someone. I waited there until he left and then I run to pick my bag, an ax, and I could only find a bag, an ax, and a bad that said "suits". So I started running to a forest. About 3 hours later I found out that I needed to pass an ice lake, a HUGE ice lake. Then I was about to the middle of the lake the anthem started playing and later the falling tributes in the sky. Some of them where unexpected, because they looked strong. So later about 15 minutes. The ice started breaking. I fell on the water so I began to freak out. From nowhere a little parachute appeared in the water. So I picked it and the parachute had a weird drink but it warmed me. When I reached to the forest it was already morning.

Near the pines I saw a girl so I throw her a rock at her but it didn't hurt her. When I get closer to her we had a starting battle. I was about to grab my ax to kill her the boy tribute from 5 appeared both of them had different suit than I but I had the one like my "suit" bag. The tribute from 5 picked a rock and threw it to me, it hit me in the left side of my chest. So like in slow motion I grab my ax and throw it right straight forward at his head which it got stuck but when I turn to hit the girl she had escaped.

When the platform started to rise I had a small smile grazing my face. I was wearing a suit that is suppose to adapt to your surroundings. Good thing to because it was freezing. Finally the platform stopped rising and I could finally take a good look around me.

Or as good as you can in a middle of a blizzard. You could barely make out the cornucopia gleaming threw the heavy snow fall. To bad I couldn't make anything out in it. BANG! I heard a cannon from my left as a piece of skin lands on my platform signifying that somebody took off too soon.

A voice then started counting down from the 10 seconds mark.
