Chapter 1: The Prologue

I join my family around our small T.V. and watch as President Cobalt announces what this years Quell will be. He announces that there will be 3 boys and girls from each district. That there will be three cornucopias, which means three bloodbath. But there is one twist that is surprising to me. No mutations. This shocks me.

I shake thinking about this years hunger games. 72 tributes, 3 bloodbaths. My name is in there so many times I have lost tracked. We have a huge family, that I need to support. I soon drift off to sleep.
