The Mockingjay Sings!

The have continued on with suprises left and right! Anne my favorite tribute has been getting low on supplies. She is one of the strongest in the games and i need her to live. I have thought long and hard on what to send her so she will hopefully survive longer. I decided to send her a first aid kit. The kit includes bandages and other important medical supplies.

It is an honor to be sending a parachute to Anne. She has been a real inspiation through the whole games. She has stayed strong and hasn’t showed signs of giving up anytime soon. I want to do this for her so she knows that people are worried about her all over. She will benefit from this physically and mentally. She will be able to cover wounds and also she will mentally benefit because this will show her that people still care about her. I hope she comes out victor of the 80th Hunger Games.

The Mayhem Continues!

What more could the capitol want! First a tsunami and bow they want poisonous frogs! Maybe I am not cut out for this anymore. I dont know what to do anymore. I know i have to if I want to stay alive. So I do what the capitol tells me to. I insert the poisonous frogs in the high grass where two tributes are hiding. The capitol just informed me i have to kill two people with the frogs. So I place the frogs right next to the tributed in the grass. We wait the room silent to see what happends next.

The one tribute picks up the frog and boom it put its deadly venom right in her hand in a matter of seconds the one tribute is dead. Another frog jumps onto the other tribute and does the same thing. BOOM! The cannons blow twice. I cant beileve what i have done i have killed two other innocent people. I get that tingly feeling again and then i remember that i wont be killed. The capitol seemed to enjoy the innocennt people! It is disgusting and i dont lnow how much longer I can do this.

The Gamemakers enter the Games

The games are officially underway! As gamemaker we have to keep the citizens of the capitol interested in watching the games. As head gamemaker I decided our first disaster will be a tsunami. We think that this will build suspense on the most boring games ever. As we begin to build the tsunami it becomes more in demand. The people of the capitol are getting bored and need something to wake them up. We decided it will be 70 stories high and the width of the arena.. Let the tsunami begin.

The wave rises and crashes but don’t hurt anyone just scares them.  We have another wave rise at the same height and width. Two tributes are trapped underneath and can’t run fast enough to escape it. Boom! The whole room goes silent. Did they make it out or did they die? That is the question on everyone’s mind. When we pull the water back in we see the two dead tributes. Two cannons blast as our first disaster is complete. My insides feel weird and tingly. I don’t know how I feel about killing two innocent people for entertainment. However it is my job I will be killed if I don’t keep this game interesting and suspenseful.

A Silver Parachute

My name is Katie Lucky from District two. My sister Jewels Lucky was killed in the sick games going on. She was my best friend and supporter. While I was watching the games I noticed that she formed an alliance with Anne Foyer who helped her in a time of need. I am sending this silver parachute to Anne because we need her to stay alive. She saw my sister on her last day and was nice enough not to kill her at her weakest point. I am very grateful to record this video of encouragement to Anne in hopes she wins the games. I feel so lucky to have this chance to send something that Jewels would have wanted us to do.

First Night of the Hunger Games!

My hands tremble as I decide between life and death. I am faced with a life altering decision that I never thought I would have to make. As Duncan and I sit on the tree limb in the cool night with, three tributes armed with arrows stand at the bottom of the tree pointing them at us. They tell us they will compromise by saying “One come down and we will leave the other alone for now.” I have to live for my sister I have to go home. Duncan looks at me and in one moment I gave him a push. He wobbles for a second and then falls to his death. I sit there shaking not knowing what to do now. I can’t believe what I had just done I vowed not to do exactly that. I am scared of the monster that the capitol has brought out in me. This all there game this just entertainment for them. I know I have to climb down and run. So I climbed down and ran as fast as I could. As I slow down I hear the thick layer of laves crackle turn quickly it is Anne Foyer from district 2.

I don’t know what to do I don’t have any weapons to threaten her with. She told me that she wouldn’t kill me if I helped her find food. What choice did I have i had to help her I wanted to live. As we talked strategy we became close and now have an alliance going. She is has very good qualities that will surely help me. We decided to make the bush where we met a meeting spot. We also had a call in case one of us was surrounded and trapped.  My heart pumped so fast because Anne could kill me anytime she wanted to. I had nothing no weapons or protection. I looked up the fake stars twinkling in the night.it got darker as the night went on Anne and I decided to split up and meet every day to talk about what was going on. I find a nice cave to hide in for the night just to think about everything that has just happened. I can’t believe I actually pushed someone to their death. But it could have been me. It was hard to relax I couldn’t get a sense of security. I knew I wasn’t safe; anywhere I couldn’t go anywhere where it was 100% safe.

Ladies and Gentlemen, let the Eightieth Hunger Games begin!

As I stand on the thick metal circle the sweat rolls down my cheek. All I am thinking about is my family and I stand there holding my necklace. As the time count down 3,2,1… I run on the harsh sand away from the blood bath that is going on at the cornucopia. I keep running and the sweat is pouring out of me now. I can only think that I have to get far enough so no one will find me. I find a nice tree to climb and do exactly that. I sit there thinking about what to do next. I hear someone running toward the tree I am in yelling my name. It is Duncan the other tribute from my district. I climb down the tre and ask him what he did when the gong sounded. He told me that he ran and didn’t stop. We are safe for now he said the others went to the other part of the arena. It was hot I was sweating bullets and breathing in humidity. I am scared because this horrific time has just begun.

As nightfall came the temperature dropped. We decided to get some sleep for an hour or so. Of course I didn’t sleep I was to worried Duncan was going to kill me or trick me into doing something. As I sat there I heard 5 booms that meant 10 were dead now there are only 17 after me and Duncan. As I am stargazing I hear a loud screech like nothing I will ever forget. I climb back up the tree and try to see what is going on. I look around and see a tribute I couldn’t make out who it was but they were being eaten alive. As I listen for anything suspicious I hear footsteps. I climb down the tree as fast as I can yell at Duncan to get up we need to get up the tree now. My life is flashing before my eyes and I don’t know what is going to happened now.

Tribute Token

As the guest filter in to visit me my heart is beating like a drum. Once my sister walks in the tension in the room subsides. My sister lit up the room with her big smile when she saw me. She told me that everything was going to be okay. I had to believe her she was my only hope to get me through this. As we are sitting there all of a sudden she takes off her lucky silver necklace. She had worn this necklace her entire life and claimed that it had brought her good luck. She put in my hand and said “Now it is your turn to have luck.” As I look at her bright blue eyes fill up with water all I could say was don’t cry i will be fine. But will I, I have 23 people after me, and I don’t know if i am going to live until next week! My sister told me that every time I feel the need to give up I will always have that necklace to give me the push to go home, alive.

The way my sister looked me is a look I will never forget it is like the look your pet gives you when you leave. As the door creep open my mother walked in and saw the necklace in my hand and starting to blubber. As the three of us cried and hugged it sank in that I was going to but in the hunger games and leave my family not knowing if I was going to be back or not. My sister is one if the strongest girls I know and now she has to grow up early and help take care of things at home that an eight year old shouldn’t have to. The guards forcibly came in on us and told my mom and sister time was up and they had to leave now. As I sat alone looking at my sister’s necklace I couldn’t help but wish my sister would be here through this whole thing helping and giving me support.

The Tributes are Announced

As Harper Hayes reached in the bowl my heart was thumping and stopped as soon as the name was pulled out. Harper read “Jewels Lucky” she read, my whole world stopped and silent. I looked over at my sister and starting crying. I am not one to cry I always feel the need to stay strong for my sister. I know she isn’t crying just to show how strong she was but I knew she was upset. As the guards pulled me toward the stage all eyes were on me. I stood on the stage in fear kn0owing my life could be over in a couple days. I stare at my sister who looks very mad and upset. My mom is crying waterfalls and all I can think about is how 23 people are after me. Duncan Riley’s name was called and he walked up to the stage. Our hands were raised like we were champions.

As the crowd roared tears were falling from my eyes and I couldn’t stop them. I wondered why were people cheering did they not know that we are now being hunted. Duncan stood in shock that his name was picked, I felt bad for the kid. I had a family to take care of. I knew at that moment I had to survive. My sister needed me more than anything I would be the one actually take care of her. My whole life has stopped and I don’t know what to do. I have a job to do and it will get done.
