60th Annual Hunger games ( fanfiction )

Chapter one *the reaping*

PART ONE

I wake up bursting in excessive sweat and my body aching for water and coldness. I know why this is happening to me it happens every year since I was 12, today is the reaping. 

I don't know why I over react when it comes to this, because there are thousands of kids in District 7 and there is 1 and a million chances I would get picked because my name only has been entered twice into the reaping. I should actually be lucky because my family is actually in better shape then most families in district 7 and there kids have to sign up for Tessera ( which is a year supply of grain and oil for one person). But my dad wouldn't ever let me sign up for that in a million years because when I was only five my brother was entered into the games, but he ended up dying in the bloodbath which was the first day.

But since District 7 barely never has a Victor from The Hunger Games I decided to train like a career in private so if I do get picked I have a decent chance at survival. I know it's kind of let's say illegal to do that, well unless your district 1,2, and 4 because there careers. Which they practically win every year which is sick. But I don't really care if it's illegal I just care about the district and my family.

So since today is the reaping I dress in my finest clothes and put my long brown hair in a high pony tail with braids in it. The outfit im wearing for the reaping is a soft bergondy red dress that goes to my knee and I wear my leather hunting boots the come up past my ankle. So after I'm done getting ready I go down to the justice building in district 7 where the reaping takes place every year.

When I arrive the reaping is about to start and I notice everyone is just now showing up to it.

Before the actual choosing of tributes from each district takes place we hear a message from the mayor and the message from the capital that we hear every year. It's about how the dark days how districts rebelled against the capital and how it was almost ''extinction" of humanity. So the war ended and they signed the Treaty or treeson , and so punishment for the districts for rebelling is sending a female and male tribute from each district and are taken to the capital and trained to fight to the death in the hunger games.

After the message is done it's time for the actual choosing of the tributes, so since my district wanted to change it up a little we decided to do the boys first. So this person from the capital she chooses the tribute from a ball randomly and I made no desire to remember her name. So she reached her thin little witch hand into the bowl and picked the first tribute.

This year for the boys was... Oh no... Mason Deen.

He is a guy a I had a crush on since we first met but he is also my best friend.

The sad part about it was no one wanted to volunteer for him, even though he had four brothers.

Now it's time for the female tribute to be chosen. "So this year the female tribute from district 7 is.... Addison Everett"
