This is my second fanfic that I am writing. hope you like it.

"Don't give up. I believe in you all. A person's a person no matter how small."

I am Marvel Hinder. I am seventeen years of age. I have forest green eyes and dark brown hair. I live in District 1. I am an only child. My mother and Father don't care about me. I have trained in the academy for most of my life. I am not as built as most careers but I have deadly accuracy with a spear. Today is reaping day most of my district are jumping with joy. But I am not like the rest of them I don't want to have to kill somebody I don't want to go into the games. These games are just sick.

I wake up and put on some clothes brush my teeth and comb my hair. I leave the house and head to the justice building.
I line up with the seventeen year old boys. Hoping that one of their names get called and not mine. The mayor does his usual speech and I tune him out after hearing it over and over every year.

"Welcome, Welcome." Says the shrill voice of Brianna our escort bounces around the town.

"Today we will pick one courageous man and woman to compete in this years hunger games. May the odds be ever in your favour." she says in her capital accent.

"Lady's first." She says before hobbling in her high heals over to the bowl. She stirs her hand around and pulls a folded paper out.

"Glimmer Shine." She says looking around for the unlucky girl.

Just then a blonde girl my age walks up on the stage head held high. I know her from training she is good with machetes.

"Oh we have a beautiful one this year." Brianna screeches.

"Now for the boys." she says and walks over to the bowl that holds my name slips. She rummages through the slips for a long time I think I am going to scream and rip my hair out. Finally she pulls one out. She then walks back to the microphone.

"Marvel Hinder" She calls.

I look around for the poor loser who has to go into the arena. But when I look around all eyes are on me. The boys make a path for me to get to the stage. Then it hits me I am going into the arena with 23 kids who want to kill me. My heart drops to my stomach. I gain my composure back and place a arrogant smirk on my face and walk up towards the stage.

"Well we have a very handsome lad right here." Says Brianna. When I stand beside Glimmer. I just give her a nod to thank her.

"I present the tributes of the 74th hunger games." Brianna screeches. She then makes me and Glimmer shake hands.

Soon we were brought in the justice building to bid our last goodbyes. I sat down on the couch and looked at the big brown mahogany wooden door waiting for somebody to come through. Half an hour later two peacekeepers came through. I was wondering why they were coming in but I realize they are here to take me to me onto the train that will bring me to the Capital. When I am in the train I see Glimmer with tear stains on her cheeks I am not going to be kind and ask her about her problems and shit. She is just an ass to me. I don't even find her pretty at all.

"Well Marvel your room is at the end of the hall on the left. Glimmer yours is just beside it." Says Cashmere Glimmer's mentor. My mentor is Gloss who is Cashmeres brother.

"Let's watch the recaps of the reaping's" Squeals Brianna. So everyone piles into the living room cart of the train.

We watch our district first since it is district number one.

"That Mavel is very handsome." Says Ceaser Flicker-man. I just smirk at his complement.

Next was district two I watched a little girl who was very small volunteer. Even though she looks harmless she has this sadistic smirk on her face and she looks like she is ready to kill. Then a Huge brute with blonde hair and icy blue eyes volunteers. The rest of the districts go by in a blur. But when district eleven comes up there is a little girl who looks to only be twelve skips up to the stage. Who skips onto the stage when they are going into the huger games?! When nobody volunteers for her I know that I will never be able to kill her. Then when they call out the boys name a huge and I mean huge dark skinned boy comes up on the stage towering over the small twelve year old. He could be mistaken for a career besides his dark skin.

"Where did that guy come from?" I ask in disbelief.

"We are inviting him into the group." States Glimmer.

I keep my mouth shut because I can't argue against that.

"Well I am heading to bed district 12 will have nothing." says Glimmer while standing up.

"Wait they might have something." Says Cashmere.

With a sigh she sits back down.

I watch as a little girl is chosen. With blonde hair an blue eyes. She walks up to the stage but before she can get up a yell stops everyone.

"Stop!" A girl's voice yells as she breaks through the peacekeepers.

"I volunteer. I volunteer as tribute." She says standing tall showing she isn't afraid

"What?! A volunteer from district 12?" asks Glimmer.

I just stay quiet looking at the girl. She has grey eyes and dark brown hair. Also to top it a beautiful body and face.

"What's your name?" asks their escort

"K-Katniss Everdeen." The beautiful girl standing on stage says.

I don't pay attention to who comes on next I was looking at Katniss the whole time she is just beautiful.

I fall asleep that night with my dreams filled with Katniss. It was like love at first sight. I am going to do anything to help her get out of that arena. Even if it means I die.
