Chapter One: I go hunting

Paulo's POV:

The Hunger Games. A game that should never exist. It showed fear. But it's too late. The Hunger Games already began. For 73 years the Capitol takes 1 boy and girl from it's 12 Districts to let them train in the art of survival and fight to the death until a lone victor remains. If my calculations are correct they took 1,676 innocent lives for entertainment! How cruel of them! I am Paulo Mia by the way. I live in District 12. The poorest district in Panem. Most tributes from our district died in the first day of the games. But our district only had one winner. His name is Haymitch Abernathy. His intelligence showed him the way to victory.But after the games,he turned into a drunkard. Enough of his story. I hear my brother screaming. My 12 year old brother,Jake. I love my brother than anything else because mother didn't care for us since Dad died. He's now applicable for the "Reaping". I rushed to his room. I hugged him. He kept repeating the words "it was me". He must've had a nightmare about him being picked for the games. He said  (A/N: J stands for Jake and P stands for Paulo.)

J: It was me. 

P: Stop saying that. Please.You don't even know it was you. Sh. Now now. Try to sleep. 

J: Okay.

I sang him a lullaby. Then he slept. I kissed his forehead and went to my room to fix myself. I wore my jeans and a long sleeve shirt and my boots. I went down and grabbed my leather coat. Just before I was going out of the house, Jake's dog,Nilo,the world's worst dog, growled at me. I hated that dog. I just ignored him and went out of the house. Our house is in the Seam. My mom lived in the Merchant section before, but when she married Dad,she lived in the Seam. I walked to the fence that is far away from the Seam that separates the District from the woods so that the animals can't get inside District 12. I reached the fence. My size fits right  inside the wired fence. The fence used to have electricity, but since District 12 is the poorest district, we don't have much electricity. I went inside the boundary. I walked to the forest. My bow and arrow is in the forest. I hid it in the trees. I went to the trees where my bow and arrows are. My father trained me in archery when I was little. He even taught me how to use swords. His reason for teaching me archery and swords is because I need to protect myself.
