Chapter 1
Skye's POV
"Rise and shine miss Skye!" Jacob yelled in my face.
"Jake, it's 3 in the morning." I say as I look at my worn down clock, then rub my eyes.
"Well if you've forgotten, today is choosing day." he moans as he sits on his heels.
I shoot straight up.
Choosing day in my arena, which used to be a state called Florida but is now Locas, is the most terrifying thing in the world. First, they will test you on skills depending in what you choose.
There are 3 categories to choose from, strength, care, and smarts. Lastly, they'll choose you from looks. If they don't pick you, you will be sent outside of the arena, trust me, you don't want that.
It only comes one time every 5 years. plus you have to be 19, I'm 19, and my brother is 24.
We are both going together.
"It's today! Oh my gosh!" I say, worry in the tone of my voice.
"Well, if their going to choose you, take a shower, you smell like shit! Plus your breath doesn't smell so fresh either!" he says as he pinches his nose.
I playfully punch him in the shoulder.
I get up and go to the bathroom. I look at myself, I do look like shit! my hair is everywhere and my face looks like the zit fairy has payed me a visit. This will take awhile.
