Katie. {Hunger Games fanfic}

Chapter one: My mother breaks down.

A/N: okay. So. Hunger Games fic. This will be a Submit Your Own Tribute, so I need 21 others, eleven girls, ten boys (but you can personalize Denim and Arrow from the prologue.) I'mma put the form at the bottom.

Me: HEY YOU THERE! Do I own the Hunger Games?

Random Person Grabbed off Street: What? No.

Me: THought so.

Chapter One.

Hello. My name is Katie. I don't know why, but my mother breaks down a lot. She or Poppa won't tell me why, so I've had to eavesdrop to try to figure it out.

I could hear my mother's muffled sobs, and Poppa trying to comfort her. It didn't seem to be really working.

"The- they're going to reap her, for sure, Peeta!" Momma cried.

"Shh, Katniss," Poppa cooed. "No they won't. Probably one of the New Seam kids, one who's signed up for so many tesserae they can't remember how many any more."

"I can feel it. I just know it." Momma had used the one voice that told you she was so confident something was going to happen that you almost believed it as well. "This is why I never wanted kids!" She burst into a new round of tears, and I heard Poppa move the blankets so he could pull her closer.

"Katniss. Stop thinking like that. Our little Katie is going to come home with us after watching the Games in the square, and then we'll talk, and laugh, and invite some people over." It was at this point that my little brother Isaac tugged at my sleeve gently, eyes brimming with tears.

"Katie, can't sleep." He whispered. I stood up, grabbing his hand, and walked him back to my room. I gently tucked him into my bed, and lay down on the small couch Momma put in here when Isaac was three because he kept coming to my room when he couldn't sleep, and I'd let him have the bed and sleep on the floor.

I fell asleep before my head hit my pillow.

*_*_*_*

"Good morning kids!" Poppa called merrily. "Get up, and dress well!" His tone and smile told me happy, but his eyes gave away the terror and pain. I slid carefully into my favorite lavender dress, and walked downstairs. Momma stood behind me, braiding my hair carefully.

When we got to the town square, Momma gave me one kiss on the head as I walked to the Thirteen section. Momma dropped Isaac with her friend Jenn, before she and Poppa went up onstage as mentors. Someone I didn't recognize walked onstage. She had waist length vivid purple hair with a cherry-red bow in it. Momma pulled her off to the side for a second, but the woman just brushed her off, and walked to the microphone set on the podium.

She gave the treaty of treason speech, how the late President Paylor had deinstuted the Games, but the new President, Wickler, had recently reinstitued them, which brought us to where we were today.

"Ladies first!" She called merrily, walking over to the giant dome. I prayed for it not to be Jessie, who had to sign up for tesserae this year, or Maddie, who's been checking tesserae from the moment she was allowed to.

It wasn't either of them.

"Katie Mellark!"

It was me.

Okay, so I've seen a lot of submit your own tribute stories on fanfiction dot net, and thought they looked like fun, so I decided it would be good to bring them to wattpad :)

Okay, so tribute form: (Katie will be example)

And, you don't have to write the NAme:, Age: , etc, things down, to save space, okay?

Age: 13

District: 12 (theres thirteen and the capitol (for all fairness) in all)

Description: Katie took after her father, with long curly blonde hair and blue eyes. She is slight in stature, but don't judge her strength on that. She is strong, and extremely agile.

Family History: Katie's parents are both District 12 victors, Katniss (nee Everdeen) and Peeta Mellark. Katniss taught her to hold a bow from a very young age, so she sometimes hunts to get away from it all. She has one sibling, Isaac.

Romance: Yes/No

Weaknesses (min 2 and fatal flaw): a little guillible, and too kind of her own good, fatal flaw is sympathy (like going to help someone who's falling off a cliff only to be killed by that person)
