My name is Rowan Everdeen
I'm 15 years old.
I live in District 12.
☆☆☆

  "Rowan Everdeen"

    Its not really happening is it. I cant go into the hunger games I won't last a day! I'll die in the bloodbath, I can't do this. It can't be me...

Sure enough it's me and I feel myself walking up to the stage where Effie awaits for me.

"Wonderful, and how old are you darling"

"15" I say cold and bitter

"Lovely to the boys then, shall we?"

No response

"Carter Crane"

  A brunnet boy walks from the 18 year old section. I take one look at him and immediately see he is strong. He could easily take me down and there would be nothing I could do. He's well feed as well, unlike me who hunts for a living so my older brother and I don't starve to death. Yes he works in the coal mines but he doesn't care enough to use his money on food. I don't know what he uses it on.

Yea I hunt my sister is the famous Katniss Everdeen. Except we don't hang out with each other as often she rarely hunts anymore since she won her games and I still practice with the bow.

I snap into focus when I'm being brought into the justice building to say goodbye. I only expect to see Katniss, really. My brother couldn't care less. That's when I realize she is my mentor, her and Peeta-who I really don't mind.

I'm on the train to my death and Peeta and Katniss have turned on the reapings.

The female tribute from 1  dosent look to threatening and don't find much interest in her, her district partner or two's girl. 

  It's the district 2 male that catches my eye. Cato his name is, he has dirty blond hair and the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen. He is loaded with muscle and I mean I know this is the hunger games but I mean, Come on, he is one-

"Got it, Rowan"

Oops "uhhh yea...yea, sure thing" I am blushing frantically and I haven't even seen him in person.

I won't ever win thinking like this.

Cato pov

"Rowan Everdeen "

The most beautiful girl I have ever seen walks toward the building and I fall in love. Her hair is blowing carlessly and her blue eyes are the most beautiful thing to look into. Her blond hair is down to her waist and I immediately feel the urge to protect her.

"Maybe when Cato catches his breath he'll join us." Clove sneers

"What" I say dumbfounded

Clove rolls her eyes "I said when you stop drooling over district 12 then we can talk about who are threats and who aren't." She's says as if it's the most obvious thing ever.

Brutis starts to talk "District 4 isn't carrer worthy. District 1, by tradition is in. But something about the 12 female--"

"Clove replay what was her last name again" Enobria inturupt.

"The district 12 Female is...Rowan Everdeen"

We all sit on silence for a moment.

Until Clove speaks up "For sure Katniss EVERDEEN trained her they have to be sisters, she looks strong too."

"Probably a bow, isn't that what Katniss used?" I ask

"Yup, She by far is probably the most dangerous threat other than 11. I can ask but I'm sure He won't join. Rowan however might join if we ask..." Brutus tells us.

"First things first we have to make sure the District 1 tributes are aware of our plan."

"Oh my goodness we are here" Gianna our Escort cheers.

And we have arrived in the Capitol.
