( Please read the description!)

The cannon boom and we all instantaneously jumped off our pedestals. For the loud voice of President Snow yelled

" Let the first Quarter Quell begin!"

Due to my quick instincts I was one of the first to throw myself to the cornucopia filled to the rim with its spoils that may keep us live. I look to my right about 6 tributes down, Hector, the massive and vey skilled career tribute from District 1, is aiming for those same black spears I am. He's obviously way better than me at them but I could probably kill him.

The first ten of us make it to the cornucopia and our first instinct is to grab weapons. Of course Piper from District 1 grabs that large mace and starts swinging at the girl from 10. I realize that I'm in the cornucopia and I grab a large black backpack. I look outside and children are throwing axes, swords, knives, or whatever they could get their hands on at each other. I see my career partner from District 4 hacking away at a innocent 13 year old. I see those precious spears and start to jog over to them.

Suddenly Hector stops my path and swings his curved sword at my head. I duck and tackle his torso to the ground. He easily picks me up and throws me onto a crate. He gets his sword in stabbing formation but I roll over and run away with my backpack and a large axe that I grabbed on the way out of the clearing. I passed Eloy, my district partner as she looks up from her last victim. She gives a slight ' Get out of here' signal to me and I run away.

Just out of the supply area I run into the Distict 12 boy. Since he was so skinny it was an easy fight. I hated doing it but I have to do whatever it takes to live. I dropped my backpack

when I was fighting District 12. I ran to go get it but Piper chucked one of her knives at me. She skins my arm, ripping my jacket, as I scurry away from the cornucopia with only the axe in my hand.

I exit the clearing and fall into a small mud puddle. I slowly climb out and get as far away as possible from anyone's sight. I hide behind a prickly bush.

Great. It's a desert arena. I better find some water fast. I remember an old myth that food and water are stored in cacti. I look around for atleast one but I couldn't see one beyond the horizon, guess the myth is true because there are no cacti in the arena. As I further investigate with what I'm gonna work with in here I notice a girl tribute running awa-

BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM , BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM!

I cautiously counted the numbers of the fallen tributes, 9. I'm glad I don't have any real competition in these games considering there all my same age. If you didn't know, this is the first Quarter Quell and is said to be a special games every 25 years. For this year a random age was to be chosen in the Capitol to reap only that age. It just so happened to be my age so 24 fourteen year olds were reaped and taken to the Capitol to be trained you fight to the death. Yea yea yea, you know the rest of the story considering its been going on for the past 25 years.
