Growing up in District 1 is easy, isn't it? You get trained for the arena, and you get a choice wether you enter it or not. Athena Belcourt wasn't given that choice. The District decided she had to volunteer for the 74th Games while her older sister Glimmer went to the 73rd. But Athena wanted to go first, she volunteered at the 73rd reaping, along with her "Best Friend", Achilles Sonhart. They both want the other to survive, but which one will make it out?
