The 25th Hunger Games

"On the twenty-fifth anniversary, as a reminder to the rebels that their children were dying because of their choice to initiate violence, ever district was made to hold an election and vote on the tributes who would represent it.'

I knew what was coming; yet still my chest constricted. Watching, just waiting for the words I knew would form on her lips.
