Chapter 4

Skylar’s P.O.V

 

Never have I dreamed that I would be in the Games. But I can’t let Rye live through this nightmare. But...I’m only 14. I know I’m going to die. I want to at least have one friend with me during my final moments…..Melissa. We don’t know each other very well, but I sometimes tagged along when she and Rye went to the woods together, and we talked sometimes. I like her.  I hope to have her as an ally in the arena. But why would anyone want to have a 14 year old as an ally? I sighed, and tried to pay attention to the recaps. I was probably going to be on my own, so it’s best if I know who my enemies are. I looked over to Melissa and saw her watching the recaps, a tense expression on her face. No doubt about it; she was already forming a plan in her head. I looked back to the T.V, and sawDistrict 3’ flash across the screen. The girl tribute looked to be 12 years old. It’s her first time in the reapings, and she already has to face the horror of the Hunger Games. The male tribute looked to be the same age as Melissa. He looked like a fighter. I would make sure to watch out for him in the arena, especially since he would be with the careers. After they showed District 4, I didn’t really pay attention much. It’s not like I was going to win anyway.

 

Melissa’s P.O.V


The tributes all seemed tougher than me, except the 12-14 year olds. How the hell am I gonna win this?” I thought. “I’m never going to see my sisters again.”I thought miserably. In that moment, I decided that I would do everything I could to make sure Skylar came home to Rye. He needs her. As the recaps ended, I realized that there was on tribute on my mind, besides Skylar. The male tribute from District 3, Niall. Why was he on my mind? I shook my head to clear it of any thoughts. He was the enemy. I decided to go to bed early that night. I said goodnight to everyone, then walked to my room. I collapsed on my bed exhausted. Tomorrow would be the tribute dinner, then the next day a week of the training sessions will begin. I didn’t seem like it, but I was scared, really scared. I’ve been watching the Hunger Games since I was 4, and I know that the deaths can be pretty brutal. I covered myself with the sheets, as If they could make me disappear. I imagined myself at home, in the woods with Amy and Tina. I slowly relaxed at the thought. “Maybe it’s just all a dream.” I thought. Maybe I will wake up, with Tina asking if I want to go to The Hob with her.” I fell asleep comforted by the thought.
