Finnick's Story • The Hunger Games | ✓
Like all children in his world, 14-year-old Finnick Odair had the chance of being chosen for the Hunger Games. In a pool stock full of names, he was just as vulnerable as anyone from the ages of 12-18. And in District Four, which often tends to produce Career tributes, its residents could only hope that this year's pair would fall under that description.
On Reaping day, a 14-year-old boy's name is called. A name often whispered down the hallways of the local high school, giggled at, fawned over. It was impossible. Him, of all people? It couldn't be, could it?
Yet it was. At age 14, Finnick Odair was called forth to be a tribute in the 65th annual Hunger Games. Many residents stood there in doubt, wondering how a boy so young could possibly bring home the victor's crown. There had never been a victor so young, after all.
However, there is a first time for everything.

❝25, 24, 23...❞
I can do this. I have the skills, the desire...I can win.
It's possible. I know it's possible. The odds may be against me, against all of us, but one of us has to win.
❝15, 14, 13...❞
To everyone in District Four who is watching; to my mom, dad, and Annie Cresta, I'm making a promise to you.
❝7, 6, 5, 4...❞
Whatever happens here, I will fight like hell to come back home,
❝3, 2, 1...❞
I promise you.
